I've been seeing a problem recently (I've only had the laptop since "recently", so it never worked) when playing certian video (mpeg1 or avi's) on my laptop (thinkpad t-21, with a s3 savage/IX-MV). When I play a DVD in xine, everything works fine, but when I try to play any other file, I basically get a messed up overlay + correct sound. what I mean by "messed up overlay" is that instead of just the solid blue screen, I get a "marbalized" blue/green screen.
Has anyone else seen this? I'm suprised it works fine for DVDs thanks, shaya potter
