Well I tried
apt-cache search mplayer Which showed
mga-vid-source - Kernel driver for the back-end scaler on Matrox cards
(source)
So I did
apt-cache show mga-vid-source ; and got
[snip]
many Matrox cards. If you own a Matrox card, and use your Debian system
to watch movies with 'mplayer', which you'll find at
http://mplayerhq.hu ,
you definitely want this piece of software, as it is the best video
output driver available.
Does that help any?
