Sorry for my ignorance but what is compiz? I run Etch amd64 (Athlon 3800+, 1 GB ram) with the nvidia driver and watch DVDs with VLC with blended deinterlace. Great image quality an 97% idle. With the nv driver I get poorer picture and 94% idle. So what is it you're resigning yourself to? Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
