What config have you tried ?
What goes wrong ?

I assume you aren't trying 24bpp at 1024x768
 - that would take 2.25 MB viedo ram.

[Neomagic] Seeking config for neomagic 2160 1024x768

2002-09-24 Thread Rich Winkel

Hi, I have a gateway solo 2300 with a neomagic NM2160 rev 0 video
card with 2MB of ram.  I've managed to get it in 800x600 mode but
I'm pretty sure it's capable of 1024x768.  Has anyone managed to
do this?
I'm running XF86 4.2 under freebsd 4.6.2.

Thanks for any help!!

[Neomagic] problem with xv using extern_disp

2002-09-24 Thread Daniel Kefford

Hi.

I m using the new driver with xv support on mylaptop (SOny XG18) which has an 
NM2380 chipset. I have been trying to get xv support to work in MPlayer and 
couldnt figure out why it wasnt. i get white horizontal lines across the 
screen but no picture. But when i remove extern_disp from my XF86Config file 
it works.

Has anyone got any clues

Thanks

Daniel

Hum,

maybe this isn't the same issue then, I compile XFree86 this weekend as well. 
Did you emerge anything other than the standard XFree package? I'll try that 
again tonight and if that doesn't work, I guess we aren't having the same 
issue.

Yes, that worked great for me. I am now using Gentoo 1.4 and it appears all of the xv 
neomagic patches have been merged into portage. I haven't had to eject my PC card yet 
either ;-). I compiled Gentoo's XFree86 over the weekend, so if you are having lockups 
where you need to eject you may be running old code.

Great, good to know its fixed. I'll try out the CVS and see if that fixes the 
problem. As a work around, I just found another cardbus ethernet card (A 
Linksys) that I've been using in the interim.

Sorry, that should have been *Andrew* (Wyatt).
Don't know what made me abbreviate his name - I hate people doing it to me.

It came up again in the thread:

As Andy says, this is now fixed in CVS.
