[mythtv-users] Just a two-lines playback...

[Andrea Giuliano]

Dear Paul,

thanks for your xorg.conf. I'll try out some options of your to see what 
happens.

Here are the xorg.conf as created by dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and 
using framebuffer device. Next is another one without fb device, but 
both show the same result (the famous two-lines...). At this point, I 
got the sneaky suspicion that my Intel card has some strange problem.
