Re: [Motion-user] [OT] HW: Bttv versus nvidia

[trebol-a <sub...@tr...>]

Hi Gordon,
I have testing all PCI ports without changes. I think isnt a hardware
problem.. (not sure), I suspect is a problem with the drivers (nvidia,
bttv, or both) because the problem is allways over transparency of
applications and Xvideo.

Playing with the parameters of xorg.conf I can "smooth" the artifacts.

Yes, in other PC I have a nvidia AGP and other BTTV Capture Card
without problems, but when I exchange the capture card
the problem persist... only in this machine, with PCIexpress.

If I put the two cards in this machine the artifacts are increase.

I put a new power supply of 600W (older 350W) and the problem
continue.... I have testing on opensuse 11.0 64bits and (now) opensuse
10.3 32 bits... I have testing with 6 differents kernels and nvidia
drivers.... I´m go crazy ! :)

Regards
