[MPlayer-users] XV on a Trident Cyberblade

[Anders Rune Jensen]

Problem solved!

Get the latest cvs version of xfree and it should be working. If you still have problems then try looking through the xfree mailinglist. I have a Trident Cyberblade XP and it almost works flawlesly with the latest cvs.
