Hi,<br>
On my frontend, a Acer Revo R3610 running mythbuntu 9.10, and myth<br>
0.22 etc, I enabled VDPAU, pretty sure I followed these instructions<br>
here:-<br>
<a href="http://www.avenard.org/media/Ubuntu_Repository/Entries/2009/11/9_Karmic_and_Using_Avenard_repo.html" target="_blank">http://www.avenard.org/media/Ubuntu_Repository/Entries/2009/11/9_Karmic_and_Using_Avenard_repo.html</a><br>
which seemed to work.<br>
At some point after that I attempted to upgrade with apt-get upgrade<br>
etc, then I ran in to a dependency problem. Now when I try and upgrade<br>
I get the following error:<br>
<br>
apt-get upgrade<br>
Reading package lists... Done<br>
Building dependency tree<br>
Reading state information... Done<br>
You might want to run âapt-get -f installâ to correct these.<br>
The following packages have unmet dependencies.<br>
libmyth-0.22-0: Depends: libvdpau1 (>= 0.3) but it is not installed<br>
mplayer: Depends: libvdpau1 (>= 0.3) but it is not installed<br>
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
And it I try apt-get upgrade -f<br>
<br>
<br>
apt-get upgrade -f<br>

Has anybody come across this? Or have a suggestion how to fix?<br></blockquote></div><br><br>Did you install the normal Ubuntu Nvidia drivers first? I had a similar issue. It took a few tries, but I managed to remove all traces of the driver from the old repos and installed the ones from the JYA repo. It was a bit of a pain. IIRC, there were some instructions on the Nvidia forums for removing the distro drivers so you can install their binary package. That helped get things to a state where the JYA stuff worked. I ended up uninstalling just about everything media related due to dependencies, but it wasn't a big deal. The uninstall removes the binaries, but not the config files. Back up /etc and the Myth database first though, just in case. :) <br>
