I have installed the new package from http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/intel/xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.4.1-1ubuntu10.1_i386.deb (verified with dpkg -s) and added the relevant lines to xorg.conf. There's still tearing in all players I tested (VLC, SMplayer, Movie Player). xvinfo still lists textured video output as "Adaptor 0".

lspci info:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27a2] (rev 03)

I tried all the different formats listed above for the xorg.conf entry: "TexturedVideo" "off" and "TexturedVideo" "false", with and without the "VideoOverlay" line, nothing makes any difference. At least for me, the fix is no fix.

Current xorg.conf in attachment.
