Apologies for an easy question, but I've looked through the XFree86 site
and I can't find the answer.
How do I know if my card/driver has xvideo extensions, and if I have them,
how do I force ./configure to look for and use the libs?
I am running XFree 4.0.1 and Xconfigurator pulls out:
PCI Entry : ATI 3D Rage LT Pro AGP-133
X Server : XF86_Mach64
XFree4 driver: ati
Thanks,
Matt
