Strange Xine problem - Xine running fine only in Xnest


this is really wierd problem, when i run xine it always show blue screen but i when run it inside Xnest it was running ok. to overcome the problem, i insert extra option inside xorg.conf as recommended by http://www.xinehq.de/index.php/faq#BLUESCREEN.

I insert Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps" in Core Pointer's InputDevice section. Is this right??

# **********************************************************************
# Core Pointer's InputDevice section
# **********************************************************************

Section "InputDevice"

# Identifier and driver

Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "ZaxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"

# Mouse-speed setting for PS/2 mouse.

# Option "Resolution" "256"

# When using XQUEUE, comment out the above two lines, and uncomment
# the following line.

# Option "Protocol" "Xqueue"

# Baudrate and SampleRate are only for some Logitech mice. In
# almost every case these lines should be omitted.

# Option "BaudRate" "9600"
# Option "SampleRate" "150"

# Emulate3Buttons is an option for 2-button Microsoft mice
# Emulate3Timeout is the timeout in milliseconds (default is 50ms)

Option "Emulate3Buttons"
# Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps"
# ChordMiddle is an option for some 3-button Logitech mice

# Option "ChordMiddle"

i done some testing and this is the result

1. exit from X and start xdm
2. from xdm login as user
3. run xine........and it is running ok!!!!

so..this means xine cannot running when you start X using startx??? anybody can explain this..

as i read it , you should insert that " xaa....." option in the " device"-section of xorg.conf.
that is the part where you set your video-card and driver.

maybe try that.
