You're right Ivor.
I've just tested the MPEG2 hardware decompression and it works on the CN700 
with my epia EN1500 motherboard.

I just didn't succeed yet to enable AGP, so the performance gain is not 
fantastic for the moment.
Here is the error I get in Xorg.log

(EE) VIA(0): [drm] drmAgpAcquire failed 1023
(II) VIA(0): [dri] use pci.
(II) VIA(0): [drm] Using 16777216 bytes for DRM memory heap.
(II) VIA(0): [dri] frame buffer initialized.
(II) VIA(0): X context handle = 0x1
(II) VIA(0): [drm] installed DRM signal handler
(II) VIA(0): [DRI] installation complete
(II) VIA(0): [dri] kernel data initialized.
(II) VIA(0): [drm] Irq handler installed, using IRQ 11.
(EE) VIA(0): [drm] Failed to initialize DMA ring-buffer: 1005

lsmod :
...
via                    42688  1
drm                  62520  2 via
via_agp            7296    0
agpgart           27016  2 drm,via_agp
...

and the bios parameters are correct.

Any ideas ??

Christophe
