[MPlayer-users] Pink screen for xvidix with Radeon M6 LY

Hello,

I'm trying to get mplayer work for the vidix driver for a Dell
Inspiron 4100, equipped a Radeon Mobility M6 graphics card. The
versions tried are Debian versions 0.90pre6-0.1 and 0.90-1 (compiled
from CVS-2002-08-21, i.e. today). Both versions give a pink
screen. Everything else is working OK. Also e.g. the xv and dga
drivers are OK.

I have tried with both the Debian pre-releases of X (4.2.0-0pre1v?),
both with and without the gatos drivers, ati.2 with the corresponding
drm-kernel module, radeon.o. Same results as before. On a box with a G400
DH the vidix driver is OK. As a side notice, the vidix driver for xine
is OK. Whats up?

Another observation is that the screen does not seem to be restored
correctly: 
mplayer -vo xvidix file.mpg -> pink screen
mplayer -vo xv file.mpg -> green screen 
But: 
mplayer -vo xvidix file.mpg -> pink screen 
xine -V vidix file.mpg -> OK
mplayer -vo xv file.mpg -> OK

Please Cc:, since I'm not subscribed to the list.
