I have an HP laptop with an ATI 4300 HD built-in. When I play avi/divx video in fullscreen, this is kinda choppy sometimes. I use the ATI proprietary driver: How do I enable hardware video acceleration for this driver?

The video acceleration is clearly not enabled since I can practically watch each pixel drawn. (Well, a bit hyperbolic, but really slow.) Another system, same hardware, had this slow video problem and at one point required a complete OS re-installation. The slow video refresh went away. So there is some way to configure the graphics+display to enable acceleration at install time.
i'm currently running Ubuntu 11.04.Heres my problem. Everytime i try to run Compiz and apply some of the fantastic effects none of them seem to work. So this tells me that something is either wrong with my graphics driver (because upon a clean install of Ubuntu it says i don't have a graphics card that can supoort Unity) or i've just simply missed a step in adding one.I've checked Nvidia X server only to get the message "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver Please edit your x configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig as root)" I would love to run it in root if (and don't laugh) i only knew how :
From the many commands i've found online i've tired to either get to or find xorg.conf and if i'm mistaken doesn't exist for some reason. In a nutshell. I can't enable 3d acceleration, i can't find xorg.conf.I currently have 325m Nvidia card on my laptop, if it helps : I can give a ton of other information in necessary.
I can't enable 3d acceleration because when I enable the Desktop effects, and I exit the window, they are not active.. I enter in the desktop effects configuration again, and I can see that the option "enable" is uncheck.. I'm a newbie.. Can you explain me how do I get the driver for my Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT (512 MB of Graphic RAM)? Do I have enough power to run 3d?

As per VMware forums & many other sites, 3d hardware acceleration is supported for XP as guest provided that host Linux version is supported by the VMware product running that VM.
The forum also says that Ubuntu 9.10 is now supported by Workstation 7.0.1.
So: I have a supported version of host (Ubuntu 9.10) XPSP3 as guest. Latest version of VMware tools installed. Still I don't get hardware acceleration for the guest XP VM.
I am trying to figure out how to enable 2d/3d hardware acceleration, but I really don't know how.I have the proprietary ati (fglrx) driver.

I installed new ati radeon drivers in the morning because i was getting display/screen deformation when using some programs (like vertical lines and so on). Now everything is just fine but i can't get 3d accelerator to work and due to this some games are running very slow. I am a new linux user. I have done everything i know and searched this from the internet but i can't get 3d acc. to work again. i have installed new drivers over the old ones (or i don't know; mesa?)

I'm having problems with my video card (Radeon X1600) ever since I upgraded to 10.04 (video is fine until I stress the video card (eg using 3D acceleration)). This appears to be a problem with the drivers for the video card. I've had problems in the past with video cards (many because I didn't check that the card I'm buying is "Linux friendly" or not. Now I'm doing my do diligence and asking the community what video card I should buy to replace my current one? I have the following Motherboard: [URL]

Today I installed the latest Ubuntu, added VLC and... the acceleration is not there. When I compiled VLC myself on 9.04 I had a checkbox to enable hardware acceleration in the FFMPEG codec settings but this checkbox is not present in the VLC that was downloaded to my 10.04 by default.am I doing something wrong or is the hardware acceleration simply not there? And what do I have to do to enable it? Is FFmpeg in 10.04 compiled with VAAPI support? Is VLC in 10.04 compiled with VAAPI support? Do I need to recompile both or just on of them? I have just updated my system and now I'm not able to watch the family movies from my HD camcorder.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was looking at purchasing a radeon x1300 for a multimedia pc for my lounge and was wondering if anyone knew whether hardware video acceleration with this card was supported with ubuntu? I read that on the ati website that it does support mpeg2,4, etc video acceleration,but didn't know if this was so for ubuntu. I have a few bluray quality movies that I would be interested in playing, so hardware video acceleration is a must.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm currently running a three-monitor setup, two of the monitors being connected to an NVIDIA card, and the third being connected to the motherboard's onboard ATI adapter. This works, and it actually works quite well, but after installing the nvidia-current drivers (using the GNOME dialog), I am unable to get any video acceleration going. The GLX module doesn't seem to want to load, and while I'm actually quite impressed with the video performance I'm getting with the open-source drivers, I'd really like to have the OpenGL capability, as it does make things look prettier.
Relevant configs and logs are below.
I should clarify - I don't care about the 3rd monitor on the ATI adapter; I'm only concerned with getting OpenGL working on the two on the NVIDIA - if that's possible, which it may not be...

I installed Lenny on my HP/Compaq nx6125 (the Sempron 32 bit model). Although X is running OK, I can't get video acceleration working. Games like Nexuiz are unusable, and programs like Stellarium and Google Earth simply fail to load. i attached some information below.
Currently, I had the free radeon driver installed. The non-free fglxr drivers are available, but I read that they do not support old chipsets like the 200M. I would like to know some pointers or instructions on how to get acceleration working. Most of the information I read seems to be outdated.

View 5 Replies View RelatedAll of the videos on tennistv are flash. The pre-recorded videos seem to play okay using iceweasel and flashplugin-nonfree but the CPU is very high. When she watches live streamed matches the video stalls and jumps, so I have been trying to figure out why. Tennistv support people say that Linux isn't supported and that streaming is "harder" but don't explain why. They suggested using Google chrome, which did seem to work as well as iceweasel but no better. In desparation I tried XP and it was much better and uses much less CPU.
The only difference I could think of was that flash video hardware acceleration works by default in XP, so I started reading up on Flash video acceleration for linux. The latest Adobe flash player releases appear to support video acceleration, but it's switched off by default. So I upgraded to the latest version and did and then restarted iceweasal if you right click on a flash video you can set hardware acceleration in a tick box, but that seems to be there whether the above is config file is there or not there isn't a live tennis match on again until June 6th. How can I tell if hardware acceleration is actually working or not? The PC is has a 3GHz CPU and 1G RAM. Seems nuts that it can't play video properly. Its a Dell SX280.
While installing XBMC, which was working with my standard Ubuntu install, I accidentally installed NVidia hardware acceleration (sudo apt-get install libvdpau1 nvidia-185-libvdpau) on a notebook with ATI video.
Now XBMC does not work and says it requires OpenGL. apt-get remove does not work for that package because it's transitional. how I can get my stuff working like it was?
I thought this may be of interest, so I'm sharing. I've built some experimental mplayer packages for Fedora 11 and Rawhide (x86-32 and x86-64 arches) with shiny new features. Aside from being very recent snapshots, one of them includes support for hardware video playback acceleration via VDPAU and VAAPI, and the other includes support for multi-threaded playback (so you can split the decoding load across multiple cores).
The playback acceleration can definitely be used on NVIDIA adapters (from the GeForce 8xxx series onwards) using the proprietary driver (not, unfortunately, nouveau). Also on Intel Poulsbo (GMA 500) adapters, using my packaged version of the native driver for that chipset (link is in the blog post). VDPAU acceleration is also allegedly possible on S3 Chrome 530 GT and S3 Chrome 540 GTX adapters using S3�s own driver, but I haven't had the chance to test that. Multi-threaded playback can be done on any system, but only really makes sense on those with multiple processors (cores).
Full details of where, how and why are in my blog post:[URL]..
I am in the process of building a new desktop machine for work and fun. I am looking to run a undecided flavor of Linux (guessing Ubuntu) as my primary OS and several Windows installs with a Windows 7 install for .net development and gaming as virtualized environments.
From my previous experiences with virtualization software in Linux I was never able to find an application that offered descent video card support / graphic acceleration etc. to be capable of playing any games within one of the virtualized environments. And since I will be investing quite a bit of money into this system for gaming I would naturally want to find the best option available to achieve this setup.
So Onto my question: Is there any virtualization software available for Linux that has full video card support, graphic acceleration and capable of taking advantage of everything the video cards have to offer within the virtualized environments?
Or am I stuck with running Windows 7 as my primary OS and using virtualization for Linux and the other OS's?
Also I have no preference on open/closed source and price range would be up to $175.00 to support at least 3 virtualized environments.
