I notice that first write() statement is writing 24 bits... I wonder if that relates at all to the 16/24 DefaultDepth distinction being noticed with this bug."

If (big if) that's the case then those following statements are trying to read 32 bits from video that doesn't support 32 bit depth (the i810 only does 8/16/24). I wonder if that cold be a problem.
