 |
|
I'm trying to use XVideo Overlay, but I can't get it to work with my integrated ATI Radeon Xpress 1250. I'm using x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.443.1-r1 and
x11-base/xorg-x11-7.2
| Code: |
htpc ~ # lspci | grep "VGA compatible controller:"
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon X1200 Series
|
I get the following error:
| Code: |
htpc ~ # more /var/log/Xorg.0.log|grep "(WW)"
(WW) `fonts.dir' not found (or not valid) in "/usr/share/fonts/local".
(WW) `fonts.dir' not found (or not valid) in "/usr/share/fonts/TTF".

I have the same problem, added everything to xorg.conf yet xvinfo still says there are no adapters present...
I googled for the problem and it seems some ubuntu users can fix it by using some ubuntu-specific script... |

| My advice, as I just posted, is to use "radeon" or "radeonhd". Radeonhd, in particular, will have true XV soon, and is pretty speedy already. |

| Maybe a silly question, but you do have the xv USE-flags enabled, right? |

Not silly at all!  ...and yes, I have the xv USE-flag enabled...
