Description Roc Vallès Domènech 2006-01-06 15:57:21 UTC
When trying to watch some movie using xv, it plays fine but for a few pixels  
starting on the left border of the window, blue is displayed instead of image.  
  
I'm using Gentoo's ebuild x11-drivers/xf86-video-nv 1.0.1.5  
  
#lspci -v|grep nVidia   
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV10DDR [GeForce 256   
DDR] (rev 10) (prog-if 00 [VGA]) 
  
CPU is Athlon @600MHz 
DVI monitor is being used, at 1280x1024 @ 60Hz, 24bit color. (viewsonic vp930)
Comment 1 Roc Vallès Domènech 2006-01-06 16:05:36 UTC
Forgot to say, it does work fine with privative soul-sucking driver. 
Comment 2 Aaron Plattner 2006-01-07 05:55:28 UTC
Works for me with mplayer on a GeForce 256 SDR at 1280x1024@60, so I'm going to
need more detail to try to reproduce this bug.  Can you please post an
nvidia-bug-report.log and a screenshot?  Also, which window manager are you using?

This is a mockup screenshot

This is a mockup screenshot.
Basically, if I screenshot something including a xv window, only blue will
appear inside that window. I made a second screenshot using mplayer non-xv
output driver, and mixed them up to look exactly like it looks on my screen.
That blue bar you see in the left of the starship Enterprise is exactly 5
pixels wide, as it appears. My screen DPI is low enough for me to count the
pixels; blue column also vertically coincide if I superpose the windows.

Tried xine, does the same. Notice all this tests are being made after a clean 
reboot, without ever loading the nvidia kernel module.

This is the report nvidia-bug-report.sh generates.

I've removed irrelevant xfree86 config and logfile part, since that's from
_ages_ ago.

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys.  Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.
Comment 7 Aaron Plattner 2007-03-29 22:29:59 UTC
Roc, if you still have this card, does the video image jump four pixels at a time as you move the window horizontally?
Comment 8 Aaron Plattner 2007-05-17 14:09:52 UTC
No response in over a month, plus I think this might be expected behavior for GeForce 256.  Closing.
