I have this same problem with Intrepid. Video tearing with intel i945 chipset laptop. I have tried almost everything and now run out of ideas.
This mplayer command works fine mplayer -vo xv:port=98 (98 is the overlay port) but I'd like to get it working with VLC and other programs too. Will insert xorg.conf and xorg.0.log soon.
