Hi,
I'm running Fedora core 2 on my IBM Thinkpad T42 for quite
sometime now. T42 has "ATI Radeon 9600" video card. However by
default FC2 selects "VESA driver (generic)" as the video card. If I
play video files the CPU utilization is close to 100% and it jerks.
Hence I changed the video card explicitly to "ATI Radeon 9600" by
going to "System Settings ->Display". I then logged off and logged
back in, the video files where playing very well and the CPU
utilization was very low ( less than 10%).
But then if I put my laptop to sleep (using /proc/acpi/sleep
interface) and restart it later, the video card setting reverts back
to "VESA driver (generic)" and I have the same problem with playing
video files.
I would appreciate if anyone helped me in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
Rithin.
