sorry for the delayed answer, i only had time on this weekend for testing i downloaded karmic alpha 5, as i understand your modified driver is included in it by default the original issue is gone, xv output is fine on 16 bits with totem, vlc and mplayer too
but: gnome-mplayer is unstable on both 16 and 24 bits (garbage on the video here and there, screen becoming white on switching to fullscreen, etc) on 16 bits, the mplayer window (the one with the player buttons and stuff) is black with all the skins, so it's only partially usable (through right clicking) the compiz issue for jean-baptiste visual effects are set to normal from off automatically upon changing to 16 bits, it's working, but a bit slow and leaves garbage and i had some pulseaudio crashing while testing the videos cheers -- [M7-LW Mobility 7500] Xv playback shows green screen on [1002:4c57] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/365843 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
