X-Video not working in Fedora 7

[chans_ph]

just installed 8.40 and i can't get XV to work in Fedora 7.

xvinfo says...

10 > xvinfo
X-Video Extension version 2.2
screen #0
 no adaptors present

here's my xorg.conf:

# Xorg configuration created by system-config-display

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "single head configuration"
        Screen      0  "aticonfig-Screen[0]" 0 0

EndSection

Section "Files"
EndSection

Section "Module"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"

EndSection

                Modes   "1600x1200"
        EndSubSection
EndSection

tried to make it as simple as possible. but i'm missing something.



and relevant snippets from Xorg.0.log:

(WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:1) found

...

(WW) fglrx(0): board is an unknown third party board, chipset is supported

only errors from there is about AIGLX.



and lspci output:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AP [Radeon 9600]
01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AP [Radeon 9600] (Secondary)

help!

Have you tried adding:

Option "TexturedVideo" "True"

to your xorg.conf in the fglrx device section?

[yoshi314]

wasn't it "On" instead of "True" ?

[chans_ph]

yes! that worked!

i forgot about that parameter. i've used it a while
back, but it slipped my mind through numerous upgrades.

would be nice if it was set by default.


thanks, Michael.
