Thanks, but:

# unset VDPAU_DRIVER
# vdpauinfo
display: :0.0   screen: 0
Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory
Error creating VDPAU device: 1

But in any case, what do I need to do to set up vdpau ? Or is it not 
available on kaveri?
