[MPlayer-users] can't get vidix to compile properly

[nico berndt]

hello,

maybe i really missed an essential part of the docs, but i can't get a
vidix-driver for my radeon card to compile. i managed to once but meanwhile
i am using a rather old version of mplayer and i can't upgrade due to my
vidix-problem.

is there any special switch i have to throw while configuring/compiling? as
i understood my card should be auto-detected and the vidix-driver should be
compiled.

i want to use vidix under vesa, worked best for me so far..
when i compile and run, it fails to detect "working vidix driver".

so here is the relevant part of a plain ./configure on my system, wich is
arealdy using vidix:
