Have you tried upgrading to XFree 4.1.0? Are you using the DRM extensions to XFree? If you stick fxtv in debug mode does it say anything suspicious? You might also try using the Matrox HAL for that card, it may workaround whatever issue you are having. The HAL is disabled in 4.1.0 last time I checked however, because some people had some issues with it. I'm using it with 4.1.0 on a G200 with no problems whatsoever, so YMMV. -- \ |_ _|__ __|_ \ __| Jason Andresen jandrese@mitre.org |\/ | | | / _| Network and Distributed Systems Engineer _| _|___| _| _|_\___| Office: 703-883-7755 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
