I'm confused. Balaji, are you saying that we should be using the nVidia driver for our Trident XP4/32m chipsets? I would suspect that if you indeed tried that then xorg, upon initialization, would notice a problem, and fall back to the VESA driver. I suspect that we are talking apples vs igneous rocks here. But, to answer the previous question in a bit more depth:
In order to get actual video playback from VLC you need to change the output module to x11. The way you do this is to: Execute vlc in your normal fashion. I would press alt-f2 and type in vlc myself, so that it loads faster. Then open Settings, then select Preferences, which should give you a new window titled Preferences. Expand the Video section and then expand the Output Modules subsection, then select it. Confirm that there is an X11 subsection under the Output Modules subsection in the panel on the left. On the lower right, you should see an Advanced Options select box, select it, because that's us baby, advanced. This should allow you to choose your Video Output Module. You want to select X11 Video Output. Click Save, then exit out of VLC and reload to make sure that the updated configuration takes over. Let me know how it works. By the way, if anyone has any Tecra M1 specific questions, feel free to email me.
