xine problem (fbdev related?)
Roel Kluin
shows is wrong too. green and purple parts of the image are not aligned
properly. This is also the case for gxine (although X doesn't crash on
closing).
after the crash I found this line repeated three times in my Xorg.0.log:
(EE) FBDEV(0): FBIOBLANK: Invalid argument
followed by:

Fatal server error:

I have slack current (24-04-2007), an nvidia card, and use fbdev (frame
buffer driver for my video card) right now. My kernel version is a git
pulled 2.6.21-rc7 kernel. I realize there are more variables here that may
be causing problems, but maybe running videos using fbdev is known to be
problematic?
I used to run the nvidia blob, but recently tested nouveau and was running
fbdev after that, Yet, I would like to be able to watch a movie once in a
while. Going back to nvidia now was problematic as well, possibly due to
the new kernel, or could the upgrade of X be causing problems?

This problem is solved. My fault. I built qemu a while ago and linked gcc
to an older version of gcc, and forgot to correct it afterward. I built
my kernel later with the older version of gcc as well, and the
discrepancy with other packages may have caused the problems. I rebuilt
my kernel and .

Roel:
Have a look at this:
http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/gcc34/
Eric has built gcc and gcc-g++ 3.4.6 for -current. Essentially, you
install these packages, then install the stock gcc and gcc-g++ 4.1.2
packages from -current over the top of them. This should allow qemu
(and other apps that won't build on gcc4) to find gcc-3.4.6.
I've tested this with qemu and confirmed that it works fine, and at least
one other person has used it for another app.

I'll use that, thanks!

Also I noticed that gcc-g77 was renamed to gcc-gfortran (upgradepkg
hadn't removed my old gcc-g77-3.4.6 package)

Yes, that's covered in UPGRADE.TXT on the mirror.

No, gfortran is a wholly new product (Fortran-90/95 compiler) which
is meant for the gcc 4 family. G77 has been discontinued, so isn't
available anymore for that gcc.
There are actually two projects to replace g77, the official GNU one
(gfortran, http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortran) and the alternative g95
(http://www.g95.org), but neither has come to a real stable release
yet (the last time I looked, at least), daily snapshots are there.
G95 latest "stable" one is 0.9, from aug 2006) and gfortran essentially
refers to the gcc version it is meant FOR (4.2 being the latest) but
also itself mostly is daily snapshots.
