Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

When attempting to play video files or streams, various video viewing program crash and I get this error in Xorg.0.log:

(EE) intel(0): Failed to pin xv buffer

this is a regression in jaunty - video playback worked fine on this PC in Intrepid. No dual-head or anything special in Xorg.conf.

tvtime TV capture also stopped working in Jaunty:

gug@gug-desktop:~/jaunty_intel_video_playback_bug$ tvtime
Running tvtime 1.0.2.
Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml
Reading configuration from /home/gug/.tvtime/tvtime.xml

    Cannot allocate enough off-screen video memory. This may be fixed by:

      1. Closing or restarting large X applications.
      2. Lowering the input width of tvtime (--inputwidth parameter).
      3. Lowering your colour depth or highest configured resolution.
      4. Increasing the amount of video memory in your X config file
         (for example, if you are using the i810 XFree86 driver.)

    See http://tvtime.net/ for more information.
