Hi, Since a couple of days my CVS build of X (14-dec-2002) doesn't do any XV accelerated video anymore. Any work going on on this part that could be responsible for this? card: i830 (mobile). DRM/DRI/AGPGART all load and initialize without a problem. XVideo and XVideo-MotionCompensation extensions load (but never intialize?). I upgraded the kernel driver (from current kernel 2.4.20) last week when i830_drv started to complain about the old one being outdated (needed 1.3 or so dl'd and built 1.3.2 from DRI). XV still worked after this change. Then I updated my debian installation from 'stable' to 'testing', updated latest CVS and made/installed my X CVS tree. After that mplayer renders a clear blue window where before that was nice looking video :-/ No complaints/feedback about not being able to initialise XV, just a clear blue window (and a mouse pointer that suffers heavily of load!) I realise the problem coincides with my update to 'testing'. However the X log shows no sign of any 'outdated' drivers, every extension/module is stamped 4.2.99.2. Since I noticed and read a lot is going on on the i8x0 side of X I thought I'd throw it in to see if the current behaviour is expected or could have been induced by recent changes?
