I've just installed debian sarge on a new computer, and it mostly went OK.
However, I'm having a strange problem playing video files, which I
generally do on xine. This problem occurs with other flavors, though,
e.g., kmplayer, gxine, oxine, etc.
The *first* time I run xine in a given X session, it works fine. Each
subsequent time, though, I get the effect I associate with an inadequate
color map - that is, distorted color to the point of looking like a
"cartoon." The only way I've discovered to fix this is to kill and
restart X, which is obviously not an adequate workaround.
The system is a Lenovo ThinkCentre 8212-UN7, the monitor a ThinkVision
L192P. Below I've pasted the relevant piece of the output of lspci -vv and
of xvinfo. Any ideas will be most appreciated!
Thanks,
Andy Perrin
