[MPlayer-users] Mplayer and tdfxfb

[Mark Zealey]

It is probably to do with the gcc 3.2... Maybe you could send me the vo_tdfxfb.o
file or something, I dont know if it is a gcc bug or a bug with my code which
only shows under the optomizations of gcc3.2, but that's the only reason i can
think of it not working - I thought someone comitted a patch some time ago to
make gcc3.2 or 3.1 work with the driver.
