Minus mesa it should be good correct? Would wsnipex be the option in the future or maybe leveraging ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers? RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-02-19 Wsnipex already does testing packages for Trusty (even in his mesa ppa). I don't know about the current oibaf state. I will upgrade that howto during middle of march after I have tested it on Trusty.

Okki dokki, what distro shall we move to? RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - -DDD- - 2014-02-19 OpenElec?

RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - laric - 2014-02-19 I would argue that openelec isn't a distro, it is an appliance. (A very good appliance at what it does, but still an appliance) RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - smv1210 - 2014-02-19 (2014-02-19, 10:49)laric Wrote: I would argue that openelec isn't a distro, it is an appliance. (A very good appliance at what it does, but still an appliance)You are right, it is not a distro. But... by selecting Ubuntu mini distro, we are doing mainly the same things here PS: I have bought recently HP Pavilion TouchSmart 11(AMD A6-1450) laptop , and have been trying to make it work smoothly with OSS/VDPAU, but desperately... So, had to move back to more stable <XVBA XBMC + latest 14.1 fglrx beta> solution. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-02-19 Always fun to read "fglrx and xvba and stable" in one sentence :-) RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - smv1210 - 2014-02-19 (2014-02-19, 17:22)fritsch Wrote: Always fun to read "fglrx and xvba and stable" in one sentence :-) Sorry, You are correct, I just... forgot to mention : "stable... compate to the current OSS/VDPAU..." RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-02-19 Yeah and even more fun to generalize from one single random sample.

RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - deivid - 2014-02-20 What's the minimum VRAM needed for XBMC (1080p playback of blu-ray, h264 movies up to 35GB)? Kind of tight on ram (running a home server with the htpc), and having 384mb dedicated to video decoding seems like a lot, I won't play any games (at least until I get some ram) RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - samsonluk - 2014-02-20 (2014-02-18, 06:22)samsonluk Wrote:(2014-02-16, 12:36)wsnipex Wrote: you should be able to use both monitors, but I guess not with extended desktop but 2 separate screens.

No, that's a general Linux / Ubuntu / how do I config my X question. Not related to this thread and all was already said. |
