It seems you were correct that this was not a leak. After tracing through the various functions that might allocate and free video memory, I realized that RADEONTransitionTo2d was not being called after the GL hacks were closed. It seems that xscreensaver hangs on to something that prevents this. After I killed xscreensaver, RADEONTransitionTo2d was called and Xv started working. --Jonathan Thambidurai ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
