~/.mplayer/config vo=gl2
For some reason I had to add the above line or I get
"X11 BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)" when I try and play any video files.
I was also able to play files using vo=X11
Is this a bug, is there something I should add/remove?
Current setup: Up-todate Archlinux, xfce4
Video card: ATI Radeon X2300 (open source drivers)

Re: ~/.mplayer/config vo=gl2
You can try adding
Option "VideoRam" "65536"to your xorg.conf.
VideoRam mem
This optional entry specifies the amount of video ram that is
installed on the graphics board. This is measured in kBytes.
In most cases this is not required because the Xorg server
probes the graphics board to determine this quantity. The
driver-specific documentation should indicate when it might be
needed.

Re: ~/.mplayer/config vo=gl2
Oh but I thought with HAL I don't have to use an xorg.conf file?
Guess I have to do some reading to find out.
Thanks anyway Allan

Re: ~/.mplayer/config vo=gl2
Well, technically you don't. But if everything is not auto-detected properly, then you can force things with your xorg.conf.
