Hello all,
Does any have some idea how to play video on fullscreen with fglrx driver and running compiz?
I tried to find a solution with google and these settings should help but don't:
Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
Option "OpenGLOverlay" "on"
another thread tell that but I know that it should work only for newer cards (>= R5xx)
Option "TexturedVideo" "on"
I tried also OpenGLOverlay off but it doesn't help either. I don't see anything at all, only dark-violet screen (even not fullscreened). In other case I see flicker.
I also tried gl and gl2 but the system use to freeze in such case. I'm using the newest driver ati-drivers-8.593 and xorg-server-1.5.3-r6.
Another issue which would be very helpful to solve is that I miss manual for fglrx. I know there are html pages in /usr/share/doc/ati-drivers-8.593/html/fglrx/ but they don't help at all. What I'm looking for is some manual for driver related Options in the Device section of xorg.conf. Something like "man radeon" which helps perfect in this way.
Of course I also tried opensource driver but it doesn't work well. Only compiz works for me. Games are ver very slow (and FretsOnFire doesn't work at all) and thus not possible to play. I'm always getting "[driAllocateTexture:635] unable to allocate texture". I tried almost everything to get it to work properly (about 2 weeks of everyday's seeking on google and playing around with xorg.conf, lot of kernel settings, kernel versions, xorg server versions, ...)
Please, any advice is welcome!
