It's supposed to say "Xine" ...

Video card:  Trident 3DImàge985 4MB
Video mode:  1024x768, depth 16 or 24

x.org configuration (slackware-current as of 2012-09-09):

X.Org X Server 1.12.3
Release Date: 2012-07-09
[  2740.985] (II) Module trident: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
[  2740.985]    compiled for 1.12.1, module version = 1.3.5
[  2740.986]    Module class: X.Org Video Driver
[  2740.986]    ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 12.0

Problem:  With normal settings at depth 24, the video output of ffplay and
xine is messed up with a split double image in the window and horizontal
lines and garbage spilling over to the rest of the screen.  See uploaded
photo.

At depth 16, the extraneous horizontal lines go away but the internal
contents of the window are still messed up.

Poor workaround:  Adding the following to xorg.conf avoids the problem but
kills video performance.

Section "Module"
  SubSection "extmod"
    Option "omit XVideo"
  EndSubSection
EndSection

Other information:  The same problem occurred with the following older
configuration (Slackware 13.37):

X.Org X Server 1.9.5
Release Date: 2011-03-17
[    40.449] (II) Module trident: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
[    40.450] 	compiled for 1.9.2, module version = 1.3.4
[    40.450] 	Module class: X.Org Video Driver
[    40.450] 	ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 8.0

I have no data for any other versions.
