I was able to utilize xvmc using xine!  mplayer and mythtv still
didn't like it, but that doesn't seem to be an issue with the intel
driver.  Maybe mplayer and mythtv are just not doing it right, so I'll
focus on those programs and not the driver now.

Thanks,
Billy

PS  Does anyone know if xvmc will ever be functional on the i865 or is
it just not going to happen due to lack of features or resources?  I
have a second PC that I'm debating on replacing but if xvmc may work
on it in X months then I'll just wait.  It's just a touch too slow for
1080i as is.
