Hello! I got RPM's from the EPIA and LIVNA distros for my SP-13000 running FC6 (updated): xorg-x11-drv-via-devel-0.2.1.svn295-1 xorg-x11-drv-via-0.2.1.svn295-1 mesa-libGLU-6.5.2-6.fc6.ucr.6 mesa-libGLU-devel-6.5.2-6.fc6.ucr.6 mesa-libGL-6.5.2-6.fc6.ucr.6 mesa-libGL-devel-6.5.2-6.fc6.ucr.6 and: libdvdnav-0.1.10-2.lvn6 xvidcore-1.1.2-2.lvn6 twolame-0.3.8-1.lvn6 mplayer-doc-1.0-0.72.20070325svn.lvn6 libdca-0.0.2-3.lvn6 mplayer-1.0-0.72.20070325svn.lvn6 mplayerplug-in-3.40-1.lvn6 x264-0-0.8.20061028.lvn6 faac-1.25-2.lvn6 faad2-2.0-19.20050131.lvn6 mplayer-gui-1.0-0.72.20070325svn.lvn6 lame-libs-3.97-4.lvn6 mencoder-1.0-0.72.20070325svn.lvn6 respectively. I set up XvMC: # cat /etc/X11/XvMCConfig libviaXvMCPro.so.1 # and I restarted my X server.
