Hi,

I run with DRI and AGP 4x enabled with XF 4.2 and a 2.4.18-ben0 kernel.
The problems I've encountered running xine appear to be correlated with
having screen blanking enabled. If I have screen blanking enabled, xine
will sometimes lock up. If I disable screen blanking before starting
xine ("xset s off"), thus far xine has worked reliably without any
lockups. It's also worth noting that DRI and xine are not compatible
with running an SMP kernel, which will lock up every time xine is run.
