Alan Tam (at) wrote : xv in i810 gives horrible color

I bought a new desktop with a Foxconn 945G7MA-8EKRS2 motherboard [1].

I installed Dapper Flight 4 and bug 27180 occurred. I chose i810 and results in a working X. However, whenever I play video, the colors are distorted very much.

I tried with mplayer and found that if I switch the video driver from "xv" to "gl", then colors will be ok, but very slow. Of course, totem won't let me switch the driver either --- Where has "Multimedia System Selector" gone?

I cannot test using Breezy since it hangs somewhere during booting the Live CD.
