The reason is that I'm using PD only to synchronise the
screening of 4 streams on 4 computers with no particular
processing for which openGL would have been definitely
usefull. Since the bitrate of my QT files are quite big, I
believed it would be faster to play it directly through xv.
Maybe I'm wrong ?
I have managed to convince the technical staff to install 4
linux for my artwork, these are not my pc but university's
one. It's already quite a performance to introduce Linux in a
Hong Kong's institution, believe me. I have written a paper
about OSS and it's the first time i'm actually using it for an
artwork (newbees Linux and PD...). And it does make sense to
me as an "artist" to developp my work under Open Source OS and
software (I guess that's the case of everybody here),  but now
I need to make it work ;)

I've installed the driver already. Still the same problem. cf
