Hi all. I'm new to the world of ATI/AMD cards but not Linux itself, so hopefully this isn't a totally stupid question.
I have a PC with a Diamond HD2400. I installed the 8.3 drivers and they seem to do okay, with the exception of anything Xv related. xvinfo returned something along the lines of no xv support.
Reading phoronix and elsewhere I realized I needed to enable TexturedVideo in order to get Xv working.
xorg.conf Device section:
Section "Device"
Identifier "device1"
Driver "fglrx"
BoardName "ATI Radeon HD 2400"
Option "DPMS"
Option "DesktopSetup" "horizontal"
Option "TexturedVideo" "on"
Option "OpenGLOverlay" "on"
BusID "PCI:2:0:0"
After enabling TexturedVideo xvinfo returns:
X-Video Extension version 2.2
screen #0
Adaptor #0: "ATI Radeon AVIVO Video"
number of ports: 4
port base: 131
operations supported: PutImage
supported visuals:
[...]
However Xv apps (totem, xine, etc) all crash as follows:
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 142 (XVideo)
Minor opcode of failed request: 17 ()
Is there something I've missed in the configuration of the xorg.conf?
I can provide full files at request, just didn't want to jam up the forum if they weren't needed.
This is kernel 2.6.24.3 if that matters.
Thanks
