Re: Problem with NVIDIA drivers
one thing you'll want to do is comment out the Load dri line in XF86Config. what is /var/log/XFree86.0.log report? you might also want to try making your default depth 16, ive had experiences with 24bpp creating unexpected problems. yussef On Fri, 25 Jul 2003 15:54:24-0400 Marc LeMaire<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello, > I've installed the nvidia drivers from the ports.

Re: CDRom able to play DVD movies
I think ive heard thru the same grapevine as you about such a contraption. i have no idea if something of this nature exists or not. and initial logic makes me think [exactly as previously stated] cd drives, are hardware for cd's. and only dvd's drive has the necessary extra hardware to read dvd's. However, what ive heard is there's some kind of tweaked emulation under windows, which tricks the system into thinking the cdrom drive is a dvd drive, and the system compensates for the work the drive cant actually do [perhaps some kind of 'on the fly decode/read']. no idea if such a beast exists. and with today's prices, its probably easier to simply buy a dvd drive. :) yussef On Tue, 15 Jul 2003 21:58:34-0500 Chris<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tuesday 15 July 2003 09:54 pm, Neu, Benjamin S. wrote: > > Nope!

Re: Freevo in freebsd?
In theory it should be doable. I tried playing with it for a little while. but eventually gave up, and settled for mythtv on a slackware box. However, i know there was some talk about someone in the #freebsd channel on freenode, who had successfully gottan it running on fbsd. yussef On Sun, 13 Jul 2003 12:11:41+0300 Voicu Liviu<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Any 1 know if I can install Freevo in freebsd? > (http://freevo.sourceforge.net/) Best regards, > Liviu > > -- > Voicu Liviu > > Click here to see my GPG signature: > -- > > http://search.keyserver.net:11371/pks/lookup?template=netensearch%2Cnetennomatch%2Cnetenerror&search=pacman%40mscc.huji.ac.il&op=vindex&fingerprint=on&submit=Get+List > ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
