hey all, i recently purchased an asus b1 laptop, i installed slackware
on which configure my graphics device to be the frame buffer, which is
fine except for the lack of xvideo support, a must have for watching
dvd's. i recentlu upgraded to version 4.2.0,and changed the driver
from fbdev to svage, but for some reason the mouse pointer apperas
off, it appears higher on the screen relative to its actual position.
and when i mnage to bring up vlc or mplayer, switching to full screen
with xv output, it is not fully full screen, the part that is not
being used by the video is blue. also, how d i get x to see my windows
fonts, at the moment my fonts under fluxbox and kde are disgusting, i
copied windows ttf fonts to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF, but
mkfontdir does not add them. below is my XF86Config-4 file, any help
would be much appreciated.
