Hi,
I compiled Mplayer on ubuntu breezy. It's working fine except that when i
change to full screen mode, it runs slowly. The picture moves slowly. I have
AMD 64 with MSI K8MMV motherboard. It has unichrome video card. I m using
1280x1024 resolution in vesa mode. I tried changing to VIA Unichrome, but X
fails.
Can anybody suggest me solution for this.
Thanks & regards

Don't know about ubuntu, but on my FC3 system, I had to get X binaries
with the drm and video drivers for the S3 Unichrome. It's available on
the net here: http://unichrome.sourceforge.net/

Vesa wouldn't be the right driver for acceleration. XV allows you to view
video in full screen, but needs DRI.
As Philip mentioned, check if DRI is enabled on your system with a simple
dmesg.
BTW a quick search on Ubuntu forums for your S3 Unichrome drivers should
give you the answer :) [ I know coz I found it there ]
