Hi,
I have a Matrox G450 and use mplayer plus directfb (with "-vo dfbmga") to play movies
on the TV attached to the second head of the G450.
I run mplayer from the console (linux is at runlevel 3, X11 is not started).
matroxfb is compiled in the kernel (2.4.22)
It works *very well* (having found the ideal set of options to give mplayer) if I
start mplayer from the command line, interactively. If I put the same identical line
in a script (so that I don't retype all options every time) and run the script
("./script", interactively, not in background), directfb says it cannot init the
keyboard and aborts.
Can someone please point out what is wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Roberto
