Phoronix IRC Log: 2009-09-04

dav3hatt0n: I wonder if anyone might suggest how to tackle this problem?
dav3hatt0n: I have a fresh install of F11 with fglrx 9.8 and a Radeon 3850 card
dav3hatt0n: all seems to work great apart from video
dav3hatt0n: for anything I play I get sound but no display (well a static picture)
dav3hatt0n: if I then pick up the window (say vlc) with my mouse and drag it round the screen the video plays
dav3hatt0n: until I stop dragging the window
dav3hatt0n: when it stop playing again
dav3hatt0n: any ideas what might be the problem?
