I don't think is a mplayer issue, though, because xvinfo reports "no adaptors present". I don't know too much about how all this fits together, and can't say if this is an xorg issue, kernel issue, or other, but I am certain that sometime in the not-to-distant-past XVideo did work on this particular hardware. How is that? What should I look into? Is it possible that a buildkernel could stir xvideo up in the -beta to -release upgrade, when the kernel config file has been left untouched?
