Trouble with dvd video

dreyfuss · 02-06-2008, 04:34 AM

I have a problem with dvd video:the audio works fine but the screen is all blue.I am using Slackware current and my video card is an ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] (rev 01).

This is my xorg.conf:

Code:

Identifier "Card0"
Driver "ati"
VendorName "Generic"
BoardName "ati"
Option "MergedXinerama" "false"
Option "MergedFB" "false"

This is the output of "lsmod | grep agp":

Code:

intel_agp 25492 1
agpgart 30924 2 drm,intel_agp

This is the output of "hdparm -d 1 /dev/hdc"

Code:

/dev/hdc:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
using_dma = 1 (on)

And this is my "gxlinfo":

Code:

Identifier "Card0"
Driver "ati"

i think the driver should be fglrx instead or ati, or if u r using opensource driver it should be radeon. i dont know how u got those "direct rendering: Yes" message.

grab the new driver from ati, install it run fgl_glxgears and fglrxinfo check it.

if using mplayer, try from terminal so tht you will get a lot of debugging messages

thank you

looks interesting, is it a custom made kernel?

dreyfuss · 02-06-2008, 11:46 AM

Thank you rkrishna.I have solved the problem by installing VLC.But i have to run it while it's already going,otherwise video doesn't work.Very odd thing,right?

still got confused suppose u have a ati chipset how can u use it with "ati" in "device section", no proprietary or open drivers of ati, and agp : intel agp.

i suggest u please install either "proprietary or open drivers"

1.wht abt glxgears ?
2.custom compiled kernel?
3. lspci out
4. run mplayer without any arguments
regards

ati is a wrapper for ATI family chipsets. It checks the chipset first and then load the proper driver.
