Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.0.2-1pre2v2
Severity: normal

Simple problem: With my Riva TNT2 (NVidia drivers), everything works. On my
notebook which has an ATI Rage Mobility chipset (lspci output see below),
compiling e.g. mplayer (from http://banki1.banki.hu/~arpi/MPlayer.html)
fails with 'Sorry, Xv not supported by this X11 version/driver'.

Someone else reported that it compiles OK, but fails to load up and then
says the above.

This is strange because X11 startup (var/log/XFree86.0.log) says '(II)
Loading extension XVideo'.


Another problem I have is that when switching resolutions while running
apps that directly access the graphics hardware (like aviplay from
divx.euro.ru), _sometimes_ (I suspect after APM resumes) the LCD backlight
goes off and won't go on until I restart X11. Other people reported that as
well.

Xv has been supported on these chips for quite some time now.
