Testing Graphics Capabilities of Video Card

There are two ways to reach the graphics test tool for your system: LinuxMCE installer and LinuxMCE Launch Manager. This tool will test the video capabilities of your system (depending on your CPU and graphic card).

NOTE: Depending by how fast the images are running on your screen, you will choose the correct UI. For example, if the images are running slow, choose a lower graphic interface like UI1 or UI2 (masking). If the images are running fast without any problem, then use UI2 (masking) or UI2 (alpha blending).

LinuxMCE Installer

1. The first way to test your graphic system is from LinuxMCE installer. One of the last steps of the installation will ask you about what UI you want on your system. There, you have two buttons. One of them, Read Online Documenation will open this wiki web page. The second button, Run Graphical Test Application will open the graphical test tool. For testing, the tool will need the Xine player which will be downloaded and installed automatically. Then, you can run the test. Here is a screenshot with what you should get when you reach that step in LinuxMCE installation:

LinuxMCE Launch Manager

2. The other way to run the graphics test tool is from Linux MCE Launch Manager. In the following lines, you'll see every test, how it should look (using a Nvidia card). Please remember that the same tests images and keys combinations are applied also to the first way of running the test tool.

Start UI Diagnostic Tool

a. This is the initial display of Linux MCE Launch Manager. Choose an UI type and then Start UI diagnostic tool to test the video capabilities of your system.
