Hi. I'm running X.org 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4, on AMD64 testing. The video card is a ATI Radeon 9550, and accelleration works fine when I startx as root. However, if I go into X as a normal user, there is no acceleration. The obvious guess is that this is due to permissions, but I have not found any. For example,
shenri% ls -l /dev/fb0 crw-rw---- 1 root video 29, 0 2006-06-13 09:27 /dev/fb0 The normal user does indeed belong to the 'video' group, so that should not be the problem. To enable acceleration (as root), I load the 'radeonfb' kernel driver, and configure xorg.conf to use the 'radeon' driver in the appropriate Device section. One last clue: the messages from mplayer are different in each case. When running as root (and, thus, with working acceleration), the output includes VDec: vo config request - 304 x 240 (preferred csp: Planar YV12) VDec: using Planar YV12 as output csp (no 0) Movie-Aspect is undefined - no prescaling applied. VO: [xv] 304x240 => 304x240 Planar YV12 A: 0.2 V: 0.0 A-V: 0.142 ct: 0.000 1/ 1 ??% ??% ??,?% 0 0 Whereas with the normal user, I get VDec: vo config request - 304 x 240 (preferred csp: Planar YV12) Could not find matching colorspace - retrying with -vf scale... Opening video filter: [scale] VDec: using Planar YV12 as output csp (no 0) Movie-Aspect is undefined - no prescaling applied.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance. -- Peace, Aaron Maxwell - http://redsymbol.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
