Turned out to be a nasty interaction with the window manager. I can confirm
that per pixel alpha works ok.

not sure off hand.

FWIW, renderaccel should be working now as well on IGP chips (assuming
you have a new enough drm).

Ok, tried latest git and Xv works fine (yeeah!)
Basically now I'm trying to put some graphics over the Xv video, with an SDL
application which uses an argb visual and draws some part of the window as
transparent.  I've tried this application on an Intel and Nvidia boards and
it works ok. Here, the per-pixel alpha isn't honoured. Please also note that
transset works fine.
I'm using AccelMethod EXA and RenderAccel FALSE (all other settings are
defaults).

Thanks!

the EXA composite hooks currently have issues on IGP chips.  I planned
to fix them up this week, but I had some personal stuff come up.  For
now you can disable the render composite hooks with:
Option "RenderAccel" "FALSE"

It's planned.  There is even some initial support in the
modesetting-101 branch of drm git.  Nothing user ready yet.

x1250 image corruption

2008-04-25 Thread Alex Rades
Hi,
I own a x1250 board, I'm using git version of drm and xf86-video-ati, and
I've managed to have Xv working. But when i run xcompmgr, images on screen
became corrupted in many ways. Do you have suggestion on how to fix this?
I'm using Exa acceleration.
Thanks

P.S. do you have plans to implement kernel modesettings like the intel
driver?
