For 8xx (845G/855GM/865G) you need to apply the backported overlay patches on
top of 2.6.32 for Xvideo support, since there is no textured video available
on these platforms AFAIK. Not sure how to enable overlay support on 8xx
(default?) or switch from textured video to overlay for the other platforms
though.

Best regards,
Stefan
