I get the same output. I think the problem is that YUV2 is not enabled/included in the Debian version of XFree86. On http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/10464/2001/5/250/5777677/ I read: Xfree-4.0.3 does not include YUY2 support. Then I had to get a new version of the DRI driver on http://dri.sourceforge.net. But on that website threre is nothing to download. They just say: The latest DRI drivers are included with XFree86 4.1.0. Does that mean I'll have to wait until XFree86 4.1.0 is packaged for Debian. Will YUV2 support be enabled then? Or do I have to compile XFree86 4.1.0?
