Re: Video playback crashes
I don't see any options for restricted hardware. I looked in Kinfocenter. I also tried guess and go and spoiled the native boot up so it drops me to console only. I had set start->system settings->monitor & display->hardware ->graphics card:vesa to Intel 740 (generic) .
It doesn't like it. I don't know where to go next.
the box from K-Mart (K-Mart's sticker) says it has
Integrated Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD
I'm running from usb persitent I'd configured from my previous computer and it's got the same stuff on it. I'll cut and paste what I had done on the native partition's Desktop here:
During install a ctrl+alt+backspace reverted the gui display setting to 1024 x 768. The actual area displayed seems to be the 1440 x 900, which is the default it used running native after installing. This may have to do with it identifying my display as vesa plug'n'play.
It's displaying it's taskbar floating higher up withing the 1024 .768 area of the displayed 1440 x 900 area of the monitor.
I can probably change this but since it's still running off the live-cd(usb) it wouldn't be changed anyway. I'm assuming that on native boot it'll default to the 1440 x 900.
This isn't maybe anything to do with it cause after I made this note, I tried moving the taskbar to the bottom and it did and resized to normal.
So I'm on the USB live now about to reinstall. I have /home and /var on other partitions so I don't have to format and lose those.
