Hi all,

I own an ATI Radeon 8500LE working with the opensource ati driver without DRI.

I have debian SID and , by following this guide :
http://blogs.vislab.usyd.edu.au/index.php/Steve/2004/09/09/installing_a_non_intrusive_x,
I switched from XFree86 4.3.0.1 (default on debian) to Xorg lastest CVS (dated
31 March 2005) .

DGA + Mplayer (self compiled) worked well before the switching .

After the switch I recompiled MPlayer (I've also set the correct path for Xorg
libraries and includes with ./configure ) and tried DGA .

The result is that immediatly after mplayer starts the screen goes black and
Xorg crashes . 

KDM (the K Desktop Manager ) then restarts the server and I can relogin into my
X session .

I had this problem also sometime ago, by using DRI packages for debian by
dri.freedesktop.org (that include a Minimal distribution of Xorg). I thought
that the problem was generated by a strange mix of Xorg binaries + XFree
libraries, but now , that I have a pure Xorg installation, the problem persists.

Here my  xdpyinfo and xorg.conf :
