Re: Asus Pundit (sis 651) : High CPU usage for X in mplayer - are these values sane ?

Hi,

I'm sending files requested to give proper help. Like I said it seems like
Xv is not working (I get lower cpu if I set -vo x11 in mplayer).  I suspect
that software scaling is going on, but don't know what to do to correct this
( I get CPU for X 40-50% and for mplayer or mythtv frontend about 20%). I
have Asus pundit, with P4 2.4 G.

I'll appreciate any help, since this is the only major problem left...

I have:

uname -a -> Linux pundit 2.4.21-144-default #1 Fri Nov 14 00:01:36 UTC 2003
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

cat /proc/mtrr >
reg00: base=0x00000000 (   0MB), size= 512MB: write-back, count=1
reg01: base=0x1c000000 ( 448MB), size=  64MB: uncachable, count=1
reg02: base=0xdc000000 (3520MB), size=  64MB: write-combining, count=1
reg03: base=0xe8000000 (3712MB), size=  32MB: write-combining, count=1
reg04: base=0xe1400000 (3604MB), size=   4MB: write-combining, count=1

I'm attaching xfree log as suggested. I'm using Suse 9.0 pro and xfree is
something like 4.3.0-29 version (stock provided with Suse, but did upgrade
and downgrade again cause of same problems - but know it doesn't work also
in stock version of xfree...)

Thanks in advance for any help,

Regards,

Robert.
