HI: Playing an AVI video with FreeBSD6.2 on a http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/mainboards/motherboards.jsp?motherboard_id=400 appears in slow motion with KDE-Kaffeine. It appears the Via CPU is doing all the work and that the graphics hardware is not fully exploited. "/var/messages" shows detection of specific VIA hardware such as network, USB, and audio .. but nothing special for video. I did "grep -r vid_find /usr/src" and concluded there is only support for ATI MACH video adapters. Everything else relies on some generic mechanism. My goal is to use this nifty little mini-itx for a custom PVR but am hampered by this slow video problem. Any suggestions? -Bob-
