Seems to be a config error. The #DEFINE "XvExtension" isn't defined for file
via_video.c.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge x11-drivers/xf86-video-via
2.change xorg.conf to use via drive
3.startx

Actual Results:  
xorg-server abended.

Expected Results:  
xorg-server should have been started.

Did/does the previous driver work?

There were some modifications made to the driver today, they might fix
this...let me know about the previous driver.

No previous version (0.1.31) didn't worked, too. Also the missing #DEFINE for
"XvExtension".

Should the via driver depend on x11-libs/libXvMC?

Ya it should (fixed).

CVS version looks like it would fix this problem, but it doesn't build
currently.  Waiting for that to fix itself...

Thanks for the credit in the changelog.
Did anyone notice xf86xvpriv.patch is empty?  What is the purpose of that patch,
I couldn't find a copy that contained anything...

Soon I will try some cvs and other code and report back here.

patch

Here is a simple patch from cvs that fixes this error for me.

Enjoy!

Thank you, added in -r1.  Thomas, please confirm and then this can be closed.

Actually, this bug shows a problem with the modularlized build system as XvMC
isn't working on my system, until I #define XvExtension...  Not sure what to do
about this one, the configure script should have an --enable-xvmc that defines
XvExtension.  Should probably notify the folks upstream about this problem.

Ya, it should.  File a bug at https://bugs.freedesktop.org and post the link
here please.

I posted a bug after that comment which was promptly marked as dupe of this
more
general bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4720

Lets hope it gets fixed in the next rc release.

Thanks.  I'll mark this bug as fixed.  Thomas, let me know if it's not.

The upstream bug is on the release blocker list, so it'll get fixed before 7.0.
