It seems there's no DRI driver for this card after looking around. Xorg works pretty well, I only added a few line to make it work in the resolution and colour depth I want. xvinfo shows xv is supported. But window redrawing is unreasonably slow, for example when you draw a window to move it around or you scroll the vertical scroll bar in mozilla to read a webpage. Also mplayer does run but the video window is constantly blue(It does show the white triangle icon and stuff when it's playing, so guess the video interface is fine, could probably be the problem of codec). My question would be what could be causing the window redrawing to slow down? DRI? xv? Or something else? Also what do I need to check in case mplayer shows a blue window?
