Dear All, Is there any update for the "updated" openchrom driver?
I am using gigabyte STA thinclient which has VIA unichrome pro chipset + mpeg decoder ( http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Barebone/Products_Spec.aspx?ProductID=2436 ) Is the "updated" openchrome driver will be able to utilize the built-in mpeg decoder in the chipset? On a related topic, is there any way to disable the animations of the thinclient desktops? you know the minimize, maximize, show-contents-while-dragging disabling. I am planning to use thinclient heavily for web applications and graphics card (especially watching web streams and multiple firefox windows) drivers plays an important role especially with VIA 1Ghz CPU. all the best, Cuneyt M. jolteroli wrote: > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Martin Kreiner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[email protected]> > Sent: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 1:52 PM > Subject: Re: [openthinclient-user] Lame Openchrome driver > > >> hi jolt, > > hey Martin, > >> in the meantime i was able to backport version 0.2.903-svn586 (not yet >> released) of the openchrome driver. >> >> i created this issue: >> https://issues.openthinclient.org/otc/browse/SUITE-230 >> and scheduled it for the next release. >> if you want to test the driver right now, please add a comment to this >> issue >> and i can upload the module with install instructions. > > Ay ay Sir! > >> some questions about this issue: >> - which graphics card are you using?
