Really? I have a Millenium 4M card, and I have not been able to get it to work well. First problem--I absolutely can not get *any* 4.x version of netscape to run on it.

FreeBSD native version for some reason complains about locale stuff, as you noted. My hope realized, the damned SiS 530/5595 I own now works, at least partially. The 8MB of video memory seems not supported at this time, only 4MB.

X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 3.1-19990306-STABLE Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I had the same netscape problem. It appears that the new libraries must have a new config file somewhere which is not what the old (a.out) libraries want. After I built ELF binaries, I went back built the X libraries in a.out and installed them in /usr/X11R6/lib/aout. Netscape was suddenly happy. I can also report success with multi-headness. I have a Matrox Millenium 8M PCI and a Matrox Millenium G200 8M AGP and they are working great. The only catch was the Gamma was messed up on the AGP card and needed to be hardcoded in XF86Config per the docs. Ken On Tue, Jul 27, 1999 at 02:41:54AM -0500, Chris Csanady wrote: > Really?

Thanks, that appeared to work. I had discovered that setting XLOCALEDIR to point at the old locale dir worked, but this is a much nicer solution. It is nice to have a working machine again. :) Chris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Wed Jul 28 10:42:17 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from friley-185-206.res.iastate.edu (friley-185-206.res.iastate.edu [129.186.185.206]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 868ED14CB7 for ; Wed, 28 Jul 1999 10:42:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ccsanady@scl.ameslab.gov) Received: from scl.ameslab.gov (friley-185-205.res.iastate.edu [129.186.185.205]) by friley-185-206.res.iastate.edu (Postfix) with ESMTP id 229C6CE; Wed, 28 Jul 1999 12:19:04 -0500 (CDT) Message-ID: <379F3B88.856C8BA1@scl.ameslab.gov> Date: Wed, 28 Jul 1999 12:19:04 -0500 From: Chris Csanady X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT i386) X-Accept-Language: en, ja, ru MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Roger Hardiman Cc: multimedia@freebsd.org Subject: Re: FXTV and XFree86 4.0 beta (3.9.15) References: <379F3671.31DF@cs.strath.ac.uk> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Roger Hardiman wrote: > > Hi, > Someone on the mailing list contacted me a few days > ago reporting that FXTV does not compile with the XFree86 4.0 > beta (release 3.9.15) > > I've added a patch to the FXTV port now which will fix that. > Simply get the /usr/ports/graphics/fxtv port again and rebuild > (or download the /usr/ports/graphics/fxtv/patches/patch-ac file > > DGA mode does not work for me on XFree86 4.0 beta, > but FXTV will revert to XImages mode. Hmm, it appears to work for me--do you have the dga extension commented out? I noticed it was that way in the default config file. On another note, the gamma correction looks very nice. I have had problems in the past with contrast/brightness settings, and this seems to help a bit. It is still somewhat touchy, but most things seem to look better..

Try getting the fbsdboot.exe dos executable(assuming you have freebsd setup to dual boot with a dos partition), then boot into dos as normal and try and setup the drivers such that they are in some sort of sb emulation mode(for games and whatnot), then boot into freebsd via the fbsdboot.exe program and use the sound blaster drivers, I used voxware way back when, but that was before the pcm0 driver came about. I've had pretty good success doing this with various sound chipsets on laptops, but it does force you to boot into dos, then to bsd every time you turn the thing on, which is revolting, but better than no sound at all I suppose. Good luck...

I'm having a bit of a prob with your program.. Strange thing is; works great on channels 18-20, but the channel freq conversion is wrong. If i try and do the "f161.25" etc for direct frequency access it goes to blue screen of rolling black lines. I have read the README thru and thru, and short of trying to make up a preset list, well i'm lost. I have tried all the frequency sets to no avail, the input must be ok as i do get it to work on certain channels. under winblows it's fine on all stations. The cards one of the aims labs video extreme if that helps. bt848 chip in the least though. Any recomendations would be greatly appreciated. cheers kent To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Thu Jul 29 4:34:31 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from mail-out.visi.com (tele.visi.com [209.98.98.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 11F6A14DDE for ; Thu, 29 Jul 1999 04:34:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mestery@visi.com) Received: from isis.visi.com (isis.visi.com [209.98.98.8]) by mail-out.visi.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 93F321F85E for ; Thu, 29 Jul 1999 06:34:06 -0500 (CDT) Received: from localhost (mestery@localhost) by isis.visi.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA29612 for ; Thu, 29 Jul 1999 06:34:06 -0500 (CDT) X-Authentication-Warning: isis.visi.com: mestery owned process doing -bs Date: Thu, 29 Jul 1999 06:34:06 -0500 (CDT) From: To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Subject: Gogo vs. Bladeenc, Part II Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Well, I tried the latest Gogo vs. the latest Bladeenc from our ports tree, and here are more results: GOGO: 249.15 real 239.20 user 2.15 sys File size: 3446902 BLADEENC: 540.42 real 527.44 user 5.02 sys File size: 3446907 (FYI, this was encoding a song that was 3:34 seconds long a dual PPro machine with 128MB RAM.)

Is it just as bad, then? For some sounds, the ISO demo code and most programs derived from it (s.a. 8hz-mp3, no longer available, bladeenc, possibly gogo as well - I don't know) produces results that are unacceptably weird. I would assume that my experiences are due to the bugs in the psychoacoustic model referred to in the LAME documentation. In many of these cases, LAME produces better output. I've yet to find any cases where LAME would be worse, although I can sometimes hear audible degradation compared to CD-quality. Note that I almost always listen to music using headphones. You can't necessarily hear the differences in mp3 quality at 128kbit/s using typical stereos (or even worse, "computer speakers") over the noise of your computer.

I just went to www.freebsd.org and checked it out, and then went to the homepage ( satoshi asami has done a spectacular job with the ports stuff! ) now i know what you meant about the nihongo! the homepage is in japanese! but what little english i saw mentioned that it supports AMD-3dNow optimizations, which i expect are dang similar to the MMX things. so i suspect that your original postulation about assembly code may be on the right track, but i imagine that it was done with a library of some kind. maybe it wont even work on a non Amd3d now or MMX aware computer????

Funny isn't it? I have never looked at the MMX and 3Dnow instruction sets and their cycles but from the name would have expected the MMX ones to be suited for audio rather. Guess I have to look after it when I am deeper into Mesa (OpenGL clone), the latest CVS version claims support for MMX or 3Dnow too. > maybe it wont even work on a non Amd3d now or MMX aware computer???? I had no time for tests yet, as I am currently ridden by 3d acceleration issues.

Yes, it's fast, but at least in my case, the ouput quality wasn't as good (at 160kbps, it's audible to me but likely not to everyone). I only tried a couple of tracks, so I don't have a good description of differences yet other than the fact that it looks like gogo is using a bit too much gain esp. at the low end of the spectrum.

Faster, if you use good compilation options (the port might not). If the quality improvements are indeed due to a better (and not buggy, like the LAME pages claim the ISO demo one to be - I don't know enough about DSP to verify this) psychoacoustic model, it needn't have any computational overhead.

All usual references in the 'Net say that RIVA cards have below average 2D quality but I haven't tried myself. I'm planning to buy new graphics card in the near future, but can't decide which one, G400 with 32MB or some TNT2 Ultra. Ultimately I don't want new card which 2D quality is weaker than my current G200.

Hard to judge, as I don't use the same monitors at home (RIVA) and at work (G200). A nice Sony Trinitron or a good LCD display (slow but no distortions) is something I notice, differences among cards I usually spot only when the cards are horrible. And the nvidia cards are good enough for me so far. > All usual references in the 'Net say that RIVA cards have below > average 2D quality but I haven't tried myself.

I think you need to see both at the same monitor to decide.

But that's for those M$ benchmarks, so I dunno... They do have some screenshots though that might be worth looking at.

E.g. no RIVA (nv) chipset drivers yet. (*) Study these links: http://www.xfree86.org/releaseplans.html http://www.xfree86.org/snapshots/ http://www.xfree86.org/snapshots/3.9.15/RELNOTES.html I would be very supprised if the nvidia chips would get no XF 4 support.

RiVa is the only way to go. With 3dfx merged with "STB" the (Super Terrible Board)... all their latest drivers suck and so do their cards. Although "3Dfx" has made good products in the past, STB (In my opinion) has always sucked. Riva's are a very solid chipset. The only reason they sucked in the past was that they lacked support (for anything other than a win32 OS). But now they have finally come out their act and kick ass now. S3 Sucks these days, they offer only empty promises in their developement. I purchased a Hercules Terminator Beast (savage 3d) and it's still not supported under most OS's (Not to mention that Metal, the "new" S3TC API is worthless). The Savage 4 suffers the same pathetic fate. However there is an X Server for the Savage 3D & 4 chipsets (BTW it has bugs :P)... check out http://members.xoom.com/s3dlinux/ If your gonna get a S3 card.. get a #9 (www.nine.com). They have LOTSA VIDEO RAM.. however their chipsets are still S3 based (well most of them). ATI (Another Terrible Interface) is another card to stay away from (more empty promises). Matrox is a good chipset (even thouh it lacks OpenGL). The rest of the cards on the Market will not be supported (too well) so I would stick with a RIVA. Don't get a RIVA from Hercules. You will get put on a 90Day waiting list (and you will recieve your card whenever they feel like it). My stupid Savage 3D (I explained earlier) was ordered in Jan, and I got it in mid April. My friend ordered the new Riva TNT-2 (pre-order) 2 months ago and they told him to expect his card in about another 30+ days (I'm guessing he will receive it early sept). Creative Labs Suck so just get a Diamond. Even though the herules has the best "RIVA" card on the market, Diamond & ASUS are right behind by a couple #'s and you "Will Recieve" these cards on time :P so good luck... -cosmic-665 >From: Randall Hopper >To: multimedia@freebsd.org, hardware@freebsd.org >Subject: 3D board for XFree86 GLX - Please recommend >Date: Sat, 31 Jul 1999 15:00:24 -0400 >MIME-Version: 1.0 >From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Jul 31 11:58:39 1999 >Received: from [204.216.27.18] by hotmail.com (2.1) with ESMTP id >MHotMailB96C925E0087D82197E9CCD81B1263280; Sat Jul 31 11:58:39 1999 >Received: by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix, from userid 538)id 5BD0814D41; Sat, >31 Jul 1999 11:58:12 -0700 (PDT) >Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1])by hub.freebsd.org >(Postfix) with SMTPid 01A361CD668; Sat, 31 Jul 1999 11:58:11 -0700 >(PDT)(envelope-from owner-freebsd-hardware) >Received: by hub.freebsd.org (bulk_mailer v1.12); Sat, 31 Jul 1999 11:58:11 >-0700 >Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org >Received: from pluto.ipass.net (pluto.ipass.net [198.79.53.5])by >hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTPid 1E16214D41; Sat, 31 Jul 1999 >11:58:08 -0700 (PDT)(envelope-from rhh@ipass.net) >Received: from stealth.ipass.net.

I'd prefer that > it support 3D-in-a-window and >= 1280x1024 resolution. Voodoo3? Riva128? > RivaTNT? Just today I put a Matrox G400 in my FreeBSD box, and am running the XFree86 3.3.4 server. Seems to work well for 2D stuff. I'm also playing around right now with some GLX-based 3D in a window stuff with this board. The Matrox seems to be pretty well supported by the folks doing the Mesa-in-the-X-server work (http://glx.on.openprojects.net/) I wend with the G400 rather than the RivaTNT since the current GLX support for the TNT only works in 15/16 bits per pixel, and I really wanted a 24/32 bit deep display. So far, so good. Only got the X server to hang once :-) Seriously, I now need to make sure that I'm using the recommended version of Mesa for the loadable module in the X server (rather than what was laying around in my ports directory). But it's not doomed to be completely busted since I got the OpenGL screensaves in xlock to go *really* fast compared to software rendering. louie To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
