Ok .. i am running a toshiba laptop, that comes with the s3 savage video chip. I am able to run video perfectly in 16 bit mode but when i try to run it in 24 bit, all i get it a green screen with lines though it. Does anyone have any advice for me .. besides not running it in 24 bit mode? i am using mandrake 8.1 with XFree86 4.2.0 -- ================================================= Michael Young Network Administrator Zonecom Tech Inc. |

The overlay is independent of the color depth of the gfx mode. Getting things running with Xv is better than without, but if you really want to run in 24bit depth, try maybe "xine -V XShm". -- -Torgeir |
