You could make sure you're loading the "extmod" module in the X server, but it sounds like you're doing everything right. I bet the SiS driver just doesn't support it, or there really is no hardware overlay. If you have a super-fast box I guess we could enable software colourspace conversion, but I doubt it will be fast enough for full 60fps output, especially with scaling. Doing these in software really sucks. -- Billy Biggs vektor@xxxxxxxxxxxx
