>Description:
Any videoplayer using Xvideo with Intel 845G or 865G integrated video chip shows blue window and no video.

Xorg.0.log is spammed with a lot of messages:
(EE) intel(0): Failed to pin xv buffer

Mplayer leaves a lot of following lines in the terminal:
X11 error: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)

The same bug repeats with 2.7 and 2.9 intel video driver.
>How-To-Repeat:
Start 'mplayer -vo xv' on i845G or i865G with xf86-video-intel or xf86-video-intel29 driver.
>Fix:
Use e.g. xf86-video-intel25 driver (port extracted from xf86-video-intel ancient history):
