I cannot find the xmga.o module for the kernel for mplayer play back. It does not appear to have been insmoded into my kernel automatically. I have created the required /dev/mga_vid node as per the mplayer documentation. I have a fullset of Mplayer compilation output should anyone wish to peruse it. Mplayer does give me xmga as a video out option, but when I attempt playback I get a 'Fatal error when opening/initializing the vo device' I can't find where portage places this module when the matrox flag is called (so that I would be able to insert it manually). Can the ebuild be modified to create the node automatically, and insert the module into the kernel? The matrox use flag could also be used to tell genkernel to insmod this module after building a more recent kernel, without reqiuiring the remerging of mplayer, or fiddling around with insmod seperately. Another user has experianced similar problems, a copy of our forum post (including some useful links) can be found in the URL section. This has always been reproducible on my system. Thanks for your time, if you have any queries please don't hesitate to ask. Chewwit
