I am really having a few problems here. Since I moved to xfree 4.0.2
I cannot play anything. xine and oms simply segfault, I hoped vlc
will get through...

Any issues with "nvidia" (0.9-767)driver for TNT2 M64?

0) How do I find the valid values for the many options? e.g.
	vlc --vout ???

2) $ vlc -v

dvd error: can't find title end

I simply clicked "Disc" and then "OK". The above messages then repeat
endlessly.

Copied the file to the hd, vlc now segfaults.
