From bug 10912:
"
After talking to Eric, he mentioned that the problem is because of the use of
XAA. And although he doesn't directly mention what the work-around is, he
repeated it to me during our talk. Add to the device section:
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
It doesn't exactly work well on my machine (performance-wise), but it does play
instead of crashing.
