Xorg problems when trying to play videos onto a TV with an nvidia card
Hi all,
I am experiencing problems after I upgraded my kernel to the latest
version Linux spud 2.6.16-1-686 #1 Mon Apr 3 12:53:40 UTC 2006 i686
GNU/Linux. I used to use the official nvidia driver model
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-7664 perfectly with all my other kernels but I had
no joy getting it to work with the 2.6.16 kernel so I decided to
upgrade my nvidia driver to NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8756, the install all
went fine I get the nvidia boot screen on bootup etc. So I am not
getting any problems from that.
The driver even plays videos with mplayer but the problems start when I
try and play a movie through my tv with TwinView, I have to do
ctrl-alt-plus and then play the movie but when that happens I just get
a blue screen inside mplayer and nothing will work and when I revert
back to normal (ctrl-alt-minus) and try and play a movie again I also
get a blue screen until I restart X. When I checked the logs in
/var/log/syslog
Has anoyne ever came across this problem or know how to sort it out? I
have included my xorg.conf and the relevant log files below for you to
understand more about the configs.
