Hello all,
I got the following (complicated?) problem:
- I run SuSE 8.2, kde, 24 bits colours
- Running (full-screen) mplayer works without any trouble, same for (full-screen) xmame(.x11)
- For my work I start a second X server in 8 bit colour mode (don't get me started;): X -depth 8 :1&, and after a DISPLAY export I run kde on this server.
- After closing my X server (when work is done), running mplayer/xmame.x11 (from my original 24 bit X-server+kde desktop) only gives me a black-screen; no image.
In my experience a lot can be solved by going for 16 bit
Any thoughts on what might cause this, and how I can prevent this from happening? I don't wish to restart my X-server every time I've been working.
YUP remove the hash-mark (#) infront of "#GUI = yes" in the MPlayer configfile
:)
Regards,
Pieter Hulshoff
