Mark Murray:
 |Hey Randall!
 |
 |(Compliments of the Season!)

Same to you!  Sorry for the delay in responding.  Been out of town for
the holidays.  

 |I'm messing with my upgraded workstation (its running CURRENT and
 |Xfree86-4.01), and I'm trying to get Fxtv going.
 |
 |Researching various mailing lists suggests that I've run into the DGA
 |2.0 vs "old DGA" problem (the card only updates the TV screen when
 |partially obscured).
 |
 |Do you have any plans to upgrade Fxtv to DGA 2.0? Do you have any code I
 |can help you test?

Alexander Langer:
 |I'm running 4.0.1/4.0.2 and both don't have problems with fxtv.  So
 |it's probably _not_ an API problem.
 |
 |Riva TNT I

Running Xfree86 4.0.1 here for quite a while now, and I see the same
reasonable DGA behavior as Alexander.  Matrox Millenium G200 PCI.  No
tricks to get DGA working as I recall and no fxtv patches.  Note however
that the vid mode extension doesn't seem to be working 100% for me
(e.g. when going full screen), but I haven't dug for details yet.
