[Bug 460616] Re: [i945GM] Black video playback with dual screen enabled

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  I have a dual screen configuration, with a Dell Inspiron 640m laptop and
  an external LG flat screen. Both have a 1440x900 resolution, so I have a
  2880x900 virtual resolution. After a clean Karmic install, I'm unable to
  reproduce a video with Totem/VLC/MPlayer; I hear audio and see the
  progress bar move as the video plays but there is no video output (only
  black). But if I reproduce the same video with mplayer, and select 'X11
  (XImage/Shm)' video driver, the video is displayed correctly. The
  problem appears when the default 'XV' video driver is selected.
  
  Thank you very much :-)
