Well i guess we can't expect too much for this driver quality anyway. At least it can render fast and well also can display a correct native resolution it's enough i guess.. also with capability for basic compositing.
It has been confirmed that sisimedia_drv.so is work with Fedora 14, so i assume that this driver will with kernel 2.6.35 above. I'm running 2.6.36 and it's work find, but it don't have any backward compatiblity. I test it on Debian / Lucid and it's failed. Except the drive from antonio that can work in Lucid :) Regards On Sun, Dec 5, 2010 at 1:08 AM, Pander <301...@bugs.launchpad.net> wrote: > Ah, when previously described situation occurs, advanced rendering such > as video embedded in web browser results in a blue rectangle on the > laptop screen only and correct rendering on the external screen. > > -- > You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber > of the bug. > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/301958 > > Title: > [needs-packaging] no working driver for sis 671/771 video cards > > Status in X.Org X server: > Confirmed > Status in “xserver-xorg-video-sis” package in Ubuntu: > Triaged > Status in Baltix GNU/Linux: > New > Status in “xserver-xorg-video-sis” package in Debian: > New > > Bug description: > sis 671/771 driver is not available for Ubuntu but there is a working > driver in the newest Mandriva.
