Hi,
MPlayer plays .avi (divx, xvid) very very slow (frameskip). This does not happen when I was using SuSE 7.2. I've tried rpm from SuSE, packman.de, and even recompile using the same configuration with 7.2). I even tried various version, 0.90rc4, rc5, and 0.90 final, but all produce the same behaviour. Note that rc4 and rc5 ran perfectly in 7.2.
I don't know what causes this problem, whether it's XFree, KDE, glibc (using rpm -qi, it shows "Distribution: SuSE Linux 8.2 (i686), alsa, or something else.
My hardware is laptop P3 1 GHz, 256 MB, Trident Cyberblade 8 MB (shared from RAM).
Any thoughts?
There was a note on this list about a week ago.... in: /etc/sysconfig/hardware add in: DEVICES_FORCE_IDE_DMA="/dev/hdc:udma2" (modified for your system) That may solve your problem.
