Hi,

what kernel messages say at boot time about mtrr?

> I'm running mplayer with -vo fbdev -ao null -dvd 1 /dev/dvd -benchmark
use -nosound instead of -ao null

> The benchmark gave me the following numbers:

something went wrong...
it says that video display ate 0% cpu, and decoding eat 5%...
impossible, even on my 1GHz p3 it's 20% and 8%

try with -nosound (or if you have soundcard, then use it, don't disable
sound)

how long this benchmark ran? run it (watch movie) for 2 minutes, then exit.
