This is a VIA EPIA M10000 system.  I put my Xorg online at
http://www.magicitx.com/pub/Xorg.0.log
I'm trying to play a DVD with vlc when I get the error.  I don't have Xine
on the system and still working on xvmc for mplayer.  I'll focus on mplayer
today so I can give more information.  Watching live-tv with MythTV works
fine including xvmc.

Thanks
