This turns out to be a Ubuntu (Debian?) packaging patch which disabled
textured video on many 9xx chips. I removed the patch and can get
textured video enabled in X, but if i try to use it to play video, i
get:
X Error of failed request: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 141 (XVideo)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 ()
Serial number of failed request: 84
Current serial number in output stream: 85
James mentioned (on IRC) that on his setup, using textured video uses a
lot of memory to the point that his system started swapping heavily.
Is this a known problem on i915/945?
