Thomas David Rivers:
|A while back (about mid-December in 1997) - I reported that
|my Matrox Millenium II and fxtv weren't cooperating.
|
|I was getting :
|
| Direct Video not supported by visual...using XImages
|
|Now - after I upgraded to 3.0 and then upgraded to the very latest
|XF86_SVGA server - and fxtv 0.47 - I find this problem has returned.
|
|So - I dug up the previous mail and discovered that I needed to
|add -bpp 16 to the X command.
|
|I did so... but, I'm still not getting Direct Video. And Ximages
|aren't nearly as good as direct writes :-)
|
|Is there some new magic I need to perform?
Run:
> fxtv -debug startup
See if you see:
XF86DGA not available...X Server isn't local.
just above the visual table.
If so, try:
> setenv DISPLAY :0.0 <-- (csh/tcsh)
> DISPLAY=:0.0 export DISPLAY <-- (sh/ksh/bash)
and try fxtv again.
