You've got be careful with those "termnally adsent" folks. ;)
With the 845G and a minimal xorg.conf (only "NoTrapSignals") I get
the expected:
(II) intel(0): DPMS enabled
(==) intel(0): Intel XvMC decoder disabled
(II) intel(0): Set up overlay video
(II) intel(0): direct rendering: DRI2 Enabled
When using:
Option "XvMC" "true"
It seems to become enabled, but really doesn't do anything.
(II) intel(0): DPMS enabled
(==) intel(0): Intel XvMC decoder disabled
(II) intel(0): Set up overlay video
(II) intel(0): direct rendering: DRI2 Enabled
Trying to test xvmc with `mplayer -vo xvmc` just results in:
Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.
Whether enabled or disabled in xorg.conf, (so far) it seems to have no
effect on the occasional/intermittent screen corruption bug seen by
dcoppa (915GM) and me (845G).
