[xine-devel] r128 and libXv

[M.G. H. <ho...@te...>]

Hello,

I sent the mail below to the DRI mailing list. They told me it wasn't an 
Xfree problem, so I am guessing it must be a xine problem (or my own ;)
Therefor I am forwarding this mail, in the hope someone can help me out here.

Thanks in advance,

P.S.: please include my email to the CC field, 'cause I am not part of this 
maillist (yet at least). Thanks.

Hi,

Before Xfree 4.1.0, I always used the DRI CVS version for Xfree, 'cause it 
had the latest and (nearly always) the best drivers. Since 4.1.0 the standard 
sources contain the latest DRI sources, so I installed that version.

Normally, DRI comes with libXv.a and libXv.so, thus a statically and a 
dynamic version. Yet the latest 4.1.0 binraies come with only libXv.a. I 
don't know if that is my problem, but here's what i get with xine now:

tinus:/ $ xine -V Xv
video_driver_id = 'Xv'

I've tried a few things, like copying an older libXv.so from the DRI sources, 
but none of them solved the problem. During the xine configure, i do get a 
good message:

checking for XvShmCreateImage in -lXv... yes
checking for libXv.a location... found in /usr/X11R6/lib

-lXv is the .so lib, correct me if I am wrong. How can it find it if it's not 
there? I ran ldconfig many times, ldconfig -p doesn't show it either.

Thanks,
