My onboard video has the KM400 chipset which is supposed to be driven by the 'via' driver in XFree86. According to the man page this driver supports Xv video overlay extensions. My logfile shows that the Xvideo extentions are loaded. However, xvinfo reports no adaptors present and xine-check says "Your X server doesn't have any XVideo support...".When I watch an mpg or avi, xine complains about dropped frames.Do I have something configured wrong? Should I switch to x-org?
I would not switch to Xorg, I don't find that better than XFree86, albeit with more "eyecandy".
Can you post your XFConfig-4?What speed CPU do you have? When I had a 850MHz CPU xine complained of dropped frames too. This disappeared, and other things appeared ;-) when I went to an XP Thoroughbred.
