Thanks for the input.

With an Intel 82865G my system locks up tight using UXA.

The following works except for some video:

Section "Device"
    VendorName "Intel Corporation"
    BoardName "Intel 82865G"
    Identifier "82865G Integrated Graphics Controller"
    Driver "intel"
    BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
    Option "DRI" "False"
# Option "NoAccel" "True"
EndSection

To run some video the 'NoAccel' line has to be:
    Option "NoAccel" "True"

We have to hope that this does get fixed at some point.
