ac_dispatcher Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Hi all I just loaded up PClinuxOS and Im enjoying it so far. Everything works nice. PClinux runs Beryl so I fired that up and it all works real well. The problem I have is when my TV tuner card came in the mail today - I installed it and loaded the drivers & such - got a garbled screen in kdetv and tvtime with good sound. On a hunch I disabled beryl and both programs worked with no isses. Turn on beryl and the screens go garbled again. Anyway to exclude kdetv or tvtime from the beryl 3d effects? I did a google search and the only thing I could come up with was: DISPLAY=:0 kdetv but that runs kdetv with no WM (sucky). Any ideas?

tyme Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 Change the output of your tv program. I can't remember specifics and I don't know where the options are for these two programs, but there should be an option for video output that lists X11, Xv, and possibly a few others. Try them all out, one of them is likely to work (it seems to be program-dependent, some programs work fine with X11 in beryl, others you have to use Xv).

ac_dispatcher Posted September 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Yea I looked for that - couldnt find one. I ended up switching back to a single monitor. The reason for that was beryl native mode (not Xgl) would only work single monitor. After that the TV programs worked great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
