I don't like the facts any better than you do. This is a frustrating bug (now
family of bugs, it seems), so let's all calm down and try to figure out what's
going on if possible.
There are conflicting reports on the TexturedVideo setting from what I can
Google. It looks like on Raghu's hardware (up in the early comments in this bug
report) that XAA+TexturedVideo inhibits video playback and webcam, while on a
Dell XPS M1330 (and some other hardware if Google is any guide) it's the
opposite. And there are Compiz complications in addition. Fun times. :-( This
all suggests there are deeper, festering problems in the driver. And maybe the
ultimate answer is a stable, functioning EXA driver, but that could be a while.
All very depressing, actually. :-(
Is there another bug record where this TexturedVideo issue is getting tracked,
either here at Novell Bugzilla (preferably, since I can test this on openSUSE
builds more easily) or at Freedesktop.org? I'll try chasing it in that
alternate venue and see if I can figure out what's going on, at least with this
hardware.
Also, is there an "official" (not really, but you know what I mean) openSUSE
11.1ish (?) EXA driver somewhere that I can start testing?
One thought is that this issue may merit mention in the release notes.
Thanks.
