Ahmad Samir--Thank you for the response. It appears it may be some form of video card issue. I am not sure how to resolve it. Running "tvtime" from terminal, I get the following output: Running tvtime 1.0.2. Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/root/.tvtime/tvtime.xml" xvoutput: No XVIDEO port found which supports YUY2 images. *** tvtime requires hardware YUY2 overlay support from your video card *** driver. If you are using an older NVIDIA card (TNT2), then *** this capability is only available with their binary drivers. *** For some ATI cards, this feature may be found in the experimental *** GATOS drivers: http://gatos.souceforge.net/ *** If unsure, please check with your distribution to see if your *** X driver supports hardware overlay surfaces.
What's the output of: lspcidrake -v | grep -Ei "display|vga|card"
The command lspcidrake -v | grep -Ei "display|vga|card" from root yields Card:NVIDIA GeForce 6100 to GeForce 360: nVidia Corporation|G92 [GeForce 9800 GT] [DISPLAY_VGA] (vendor:10de device:0614 subv:196e subd:0719) (rev: a2)
So, try what the error message said, i.e. install the proprietary Nvidia driver from the nonfree repo. - Open drakx11 -> Graphics Card - make sure the correct card group is selected, then click OK - select "yes" when asked if you want to use the proprietary driver for your graphics card
Ahmad Samir--Thank you for showing me this is not a bug but rather a failure on my part to initialize 3D graphics. Your patience, professionalism and helpfulness were outstanding. Thank you. I suppose this can now be considered "CLOSED" as a false report. My apologies.--falcon40
