I have i810 and I use Xv driver originally shipped with SuSE 9.1. I also=20
hadn't this problem in SuSE 9.0 (btw, I hadn't many more problems with SuSE=
=20
9.0 which I now have with 9.1, but that's a different topic...). Since=20
mplayer plays DVD in KDE even now (e.g. in SuSE 9.1), it seems to me that=20
there must be sort of a bug in xine, or I just don't know where the problem=
=20
can be. But what is strange - when I start a KDE session on screen :0, xine=
=20
doesn't play DVDs there, but when I then start one more KDE session on=20
screen :1, xine works fine in this second session even when playing DVDs!=20
However, this is not much comfortable solution... :-)
