I installed xinelib-devel and hdparm as sine-check complained thefirst time because they weren't there and it couldn't do a proper job. xine-check Please be patient, this script may take a while to run... [ good ] you're using Linux, doing specific tests [ good ] looks like you have a /proc filesystem mounted. [ good ] You seem to have a reasonable kernel version (2.4.19-16mdk) [ good ] intel compatible processor, checking MTRR support [ good ] you have MTRR support and there are some ranges set. [ good ] found the player at /usr/bin/xine [ good ] /usr/bin/xine is in your PATH [ good ] found /usr/bin/xine-config in your PATH [ good ] plugin directory /usr/lib/xine/plugins exists.

[ good ] /dev/cdrom points to /dev/cdroms/../ide/host0/bus1/target1/lun0/cd [ good ] /dev/dvd points to /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target1/lun0/cd [ good ] DMA is enabled for your DVD drive [ good ] found xvinfo: X-Video Extension version 2.2 [ good ] your Xv extension supports YUV overlays (improves MPEG performance) [ good ] your Xv extension supports packed YUV overlays [ good ] Xv ports: RGBA RGBT RGB2 YUY2 UYVY YV12 I420 Here's a grep of all the xine, mpg, mpeg, dvd and css results.
