** Summary changed:
- No full-screen video in scummvm & dosbox (intel 945gme)
+ Intel 945GME - No video in 800x600 and lower resolutions
** Description changed:
I'm running Jaunty on an eee PC 1000 with an Intel 945GME graphics
adapter. I've already posted in another thread about poor 3d performance
on this card, but this problem seems to be different. I can't seem to
get any full-screen video in certain applications - so far, I've noticed
this in ScummVM and DosBox. I can type and get sound just fine, though.
Full-screen video in VLC and other media players works fine, though.
- I'm not sure what kind of diagnostic information would be helpful, but
- I'll gladly provide it if I can.
+ After further testing, I discovered that the Intel driver does not
+ display video in 800x600 and 640x480 resolutions, even though they are
+ selectable under Screen Resolution. 800x600 works normally (though
+ stretched) with the VESA driver. Worse yet, my system became stuck at
+ 800x600 with no way to change it back to 1024x600, and I had to reformat
+ and reinstall.
+
+ This makes lower-resolution games unplayable, and seems to be yet
+ another symptom of an Intel driver that is extraordinarily buggy at this
+ point. I did not have this problem in Intrepid - all resolutions worked
+ normally.
