Thanks for your response, Albert. I hadn't noticed that line in the log file and was unaware of xv's new dependency. I've updated the Wiki page for my model macbook to reflect this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook1-1/Jaunty

I can't physically arrange my displays (1280x800 builtin, 1920x1200 external) to put one on top of the other, so I'm out of things to try. It's pretty frustrating to be left with non-xv video, as it's unresizeable and constantly choppy.

Is anyone aware of alternatives besides downgrading to Intrepid?
