Hi, 
 
Apologies if this is in the wrong category I couldn't find anything xv specific so I picked on the driver 
instead. 
 
I have a Dell Inspiron 5100 with on board ATI Mobility 7500 graphics.  Works great with the radeon 
driver using DRM but xv overlays won't expand to full screen when outputting to my external 
monitor at 1280x1024. 
 
It's very difficult to describe...the video -appears- to be stretching to the full screen but I get a kind of 
"viewport" effect where I get a box (I am guessing its 1024x768 in size, roughly) and if I move the 
box around I can move the "viewport" and see parts of the movie that are hidden. 
 
If the movie isn't full screen and I have, say, xine, at the top of the screen and I move the mouse to 
the bottom of the screen some of the video that's playing is hidden. 
 
If you can tell me how to do screenshots of overlayed stuff I'll show you what I mean...I hope I've 
described it properly. 
 
Laptop display panel runs at 1024x768, external output is set at 1280x1024.
