Comments:
<0> for example mplayer -vo vesa movie.avi
<0> RelDrgn:
<1> beerminator: try mplayer -vo xv <media>
<2> K_F: I see. Dont think ive been there
<3> vesa writes directly to the video card so it requires root
<2> K_F: actually, Im sure I havent :P
<4> Jostein: nice little place
<0> ploggr: xv is for X I suppose?
<1> beerminator: yep
<0> ploggr: and I need console
<3> you MIGHT be able to use the framebuffer as a user
<0> RelDrgn: like fbdev?
<3> if your kernel supports the framebuffer
<3> yeach
<5> -vo aa ;-)
<1> beerminator: there are a number of video overlay methods you can try it
<3> killall-KILL: haha
<1> beerminator: they're in the manpage
<0> RelDrgn: damn, just remembered - no it doesn't... just vesa... any other solution?
<6> there's colour aa too
<5> OM: it's called libcaca
<0> ploggr: yeah, I know, just lazy, thought could do something with vesa
<5> OM: which is very funy - in romanian "caca" means "poo"
<1> beerminator: are you playing this through x though?
<0> ploggr: no
<6> killall-KILL: yeah, in english slang too
<3> beerminator: live dangerously, suid root the mplayer executable
<5> beerminator: anything that changes the console video mode must be root
<3> vesa and fbdev are pretty much it
<0> RelDrgn: well that'll be the last thing to do;)
<5> beerminator: so fbdev is a choice if you are using framebuffer console
<0> killall-KILL: but I'm not.. doesn't work for me
<5> beerminator: then you have no choice except to run mplayer as root
<6> killall-KILL: bad idea
<0> killall-KILL: I'll try other drivers.. maybe we'll find working ones for console
<0> killall-KILL: _will_
<5> beerminator: you don't get it? if your screen is not _already_ in graphics mode only root can change it
<5> to be able to do so X is setuid root
<7> only root can do certain things to hardware. There is a very good reason for this
<0> killall-KILL: graphics mode?
<5> beerminator: as opposed to console text-only mode
<5> well, the console can be in graphics mode but emulate text mode - framebuffer console does so
<4> well, I'm going to the coffee bar to get a coffee anyways
<0> killall-KILL: maybe by changing some permissions, I could solve this... but it wouldn't be secure//
<8> siglite: sorry i missed you... still around? =)
<5> ls -l `which Xwrapper`
<5> -rws--x--x 1 root root 6324 Mar 24 2004 /usr/X11R6/bin/Xwrapper*
<5> notice the s ?
<5> do you think X wouldn't have used some other way if there was one?
<0> what does xwrapper has to do with console?
<6> yes, what?
<9> This is ****ed up. newegg won't accept a return for this XP 64bit OEM so that I can get XP Home instead. WTF.
<5> beerminator: just wanted to prove that X has to be root too so it can enter graphics mode
<3> of course not
<9> RelDrgn: Its sealed up and untouched.
<9> AND wasn't supposed to be the OEM ver in the first place. Most annoying.
<3> Falchion: says you ;)
<3> now, if they sent you the wrong thing, that's a real problem ;P
<9> RelDrgn: When I ordered it, it NEVER said OEM.
<9> Wonder if anyone is willing to swap it for XP Media Center. heh
<6> no whining about winduhs here
<9> OldMonk: I'm not.
<0> killall-KILL: yeah, this situation looks very ****ed up... probably'll go post on some forums, have to hear other opinions... thanks for the info
<6> of course you are!
<9> OldMonk: No, i am not. I'm whining about newegg ****ing me.
<6> if you say so :)
<9> Guess I can just install it on this girl's system, though I dunno how it'll do for gaming.
<9> At least the vid card is the only real thing I need to find 64bit drivers for. heh
<9> Hmjm, and sound onboard.
<6> re whyzzyrd
<10> re. no topic here
<6> happy 666 here
<11> hm. finding a mini-pci wifi/bluetooth card.
<6> any problems for anyone on 666?
<8> not for me
<10> D-side: I have some B aironet mini-pci cards.
<8> i had a 10am meeting off-campus, so i never went to work, went to the meeting, then came home
<10> prometheus_: me either
<11> whyzzyrd: i've got a good atheros based card (wistron CM9 I believe), but I want bluetooth also. I don't know how realistic this is.
<10> D-side: Did your lapdog ever come with a pootooth option?
<12> so, i hvae a divorcee that is failry cute tryin to get me to go on a date w/her
<8> i went and bought an atheros-based card a couple of weeks ago so that i could crack wep
<11> whyzzyrd: never once. hell, it didn't ship from the factory with wifi at all.
<10> Steakk: must be fairly blind too eh?
<7> OldMonk: Yes. Google Spreadsheets. A sure sign of the Apocalypse
<6> hehheh
<12> hardy har har
<13> good evening
<6> schitzo_
<14> gah, I funking HATE windows
<6> no whining about winduhs here
<14> "I'm now going to reboot to finish installing software you didn't tell me to install and without giving you a chance to say no"
<8> automatic updates?
<14> yeah, for the mobile phone synchronisation software
<15> hm. pc6400 memory isn't exactly cheap yet, I see
<8> automatic updates can be forced via group policies, so your admins have probably set them to be automatically installed and reboot
<14> prometheus_: do you have a grandmother?>
<8> two, actually
<14> ah, then here's a dozen eggs, that should be anough for them both
<6> haahaa!
