[mythtv-users] XvMC (again)

Hello all,

Please excuse the multiple questions today, but I never get change to
tweak Myth and today I'm spending a whole day doing it! Not getting very
far so far as I'm just failing time after time to set a decent
resolution in xorg (see other thread), but this thread is about XvMC.

I have a nVidia 5200, but I can't get XvMC to initialise.

I've tried editing the XvMCConfig file in /etc/X11 from libXvMC.so.1 to
libXvMCVVIDIA_dynamic.so.1, but it still doesn't work.

Is there anything else I need to do? Any log I should post to be more
helpful?


Ah, this may be the problem, but I don't understand what's going on ...
I just went to check my nvidia driver number in Settings (KDE/Kubuntu)
and found this:
Graphics card - NVIDIA GeForce FX (generic)
Driver - nv

I don't see how this can be!?
The driver is set to "nvidia" in xorg, and I see the nvidia logo when I
boot up. What's going on?

Cheers
Damian
