[Bug 212799] Re: [hardy] Xv causes SIGSEGV in memcpy()

[Jan Wedekind]

I encountered problems when using XVideo with the "Intel Corporation
Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev
03)". Every so often I had to reset the laptop because starting a video
player would freeze X11. I disabled the option "TexturedVideo" by
modifying the video device section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf as follows:

...
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
        Option          "TexturedVideo" "false"
EndSection
...

I've tested this for a while now but since I changed xorg.conf it has worked just fine.
I noticed that in the meantime that there also was a security update for some Intel kernel module. However I didn't test whether X11 works with option "TexturedVideo" enabled now.
