hi, i was using a potato system. i did a dist-upgrade to woody. the upgrade went without a hitch but for X. some packages were of version 3.3.6-18. i tried removing 3.3.6-18 but said dependency problems.
I have Riva TNT2 ULTRA card. downloaded the binary drivers from nvidia and installed them. i am a newbie so didn't know i how it is quite worked. so assumed that i could safely remove xserver-svga. but that left me with out X. i am not quite clear on how to solve this. another thing i found when i tried to run mplayer -vo xv it says that XVideo definton missing. could someone give me links as to what this is all about. i wanted to use xine. but for a fs mode one needs Xv. how can i get this working, thanks is advance, regards harsha --
