Actually, Its my second time but I didn't get it working then either. My purpose is to use directfb for TV out purposes on a G400TV card.
I have followed Ville Syrj�l� howto: http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/directfb/matrox-tv-out-howto And I'm up to testing.. i have compiled all the options inside the kernal.. Directfb actually works, but not the matrox side of things. With a directfbrc of : cat /etc/directfbrc mode=720x576 matrox-sgram primary-layer=2 matrox-tv-standard=pal mplayer -vo directfb will play me a video, on my monitor.. But If I add one line (matrox-crtc2) to directfbrc, I get the following (the same error with -vo directfb as -vo dfbmga). DirectFB: Preinit entered (*) DirectFB/Config: Parsing config file '/etc/directfbrc'. ---------------------- DirectFB v0.9.21 --------------------- (c) 2000-2002 convergence integrated media GmbH (c) 2002-2004 convergence GmbH ----------------------------------------------------------- (*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core.
