2.6.17 does not have PCI IDs for a lot of the new Intel stuff. You
should either upgrade to 2.6.18 or download the tarballs from Intel's
Linux Graphics site[1] and use those.
Personally, I would recommend Mesa CVS for the i965 DRI driver, it's
seen a few improvements since the code drop and Compiz almost (!)
works--there are just black borders instead of alpha blended borders. :(

Xv is done by OpenGL textures on i915 and newer. So once DRI starts
working you should get Xv.
