           Summary: Artefacts, disappearing cursor and tv-out problem in
                    Savage Xv
           Product: xorg
           Version: CVS_head
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Driver/s3savage
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: Maarten.Wisse at urz.uni-hd.de


Distro: Gentoo  
Xorg: 6.8.1.904  
CVS snapshot savage driver: 09-02-2005  
Hardware: Acer Aspire 1312LC with ProSavageDDR  
Kernel: 2.6.10-gentoo-r4  
  
In general, this combination of Xorg and CVS driver works well, both in 2D and  
3D. However, I've still some problems with Xv:  
  
1. In Kaffeine 0.5, when using a fixed window which displays video's scaled  
rather than 1x, 2x or full screen, I get gray and green artefacts. See  
screenshot attached. These also appear when, for instance, one moves  
kaffeine's window. This was not the case with the old driver (pre 2.0 cvs  
snapshot)  
  
2. I use a default hardware cursor---no 3d effects for example. When using 
mplayerplug-in in Firefox, my cursor sometimes disappears after closing an 
embedded stream, for example after pressing the `back' button in the browser. 
A workaround was to bring the embedded stream to full screen and back to 
embedded. After that action, the cursos didn't disappear anymore. The 
`disappearing' was just disappearing, it did still work, as visible when 
moving over links etc. 
 
3. I'm problem with tv-out. First, the window visible on tv is too small. This 
happens with both with 1024x768 and 800x600 (didn't try smaller res.) Further, 
xv doesn't work properly on tv-out. The movie is displaced to the bottom 
rightcorner. This didn't happen with the previous driver either.
