<br><br></div>You do not say what Intel chipset is in your 'integrated video card'.<br>Sorry but XvMC does not work on intel chipsets above the i830 with<br>either the I830 or the intel driver.<br>There are Intel guys working on the intel driver to get it working with
<br>xorg. There is at present an experimental xvmc-i915 branch, which may,<br>when completed, bring xvmc to the intel chipset series up to the i965.<br><br>And, I have no idea when that will happen...<br><br>In the meantime, you must be doing something wrong if you cannot get
<br>xvmc working with an Nvidia 6200. (Take your pick of any one of about a<br>hundred steps or settings which could be wrong!) There are various<br>step-by-step instructions on various web-sites. Even though you are on<br>
debian, Jarod Wilson's site will help as will the wiki.<br>Unfortunately, these setups require us to get 100 individual things<br>*exactly* right.<br>To err is human. Trying to do this proves how human we are!.<br><br>

<br><br>I dont use debian but i am sure it has some version of apt-get or yum. So, install the correct repo, do a yum install <i>graphic driver name</i> put the XvMC link int /etc/X11/ and your good to go.<br><br>Mitchell
