Title:
  [i945gm] all video players crash with BadAlloc error (no Compiz, Xv)
  if Virtual width > 2048.

Status in Mactel Support:
  New
Status in X.org xf86-video-intel:
  Fix Released
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

  xine, mplayer, or totem all crash when attempting to play any video file with an error like this one from xine:
  This is xine (X11 gui) - a free video player v0.99.6cvs.
  (c) 2000-2007 The xine Team.
  X Error of failed request:  BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)
    Major opcode of failed request:  132 (XVideo)
    Minor opcode of failed request:  19 ()
    Serial number of failed request:  4731
    Current serial number in output stream:  4732

  This worked in Intrepid and does not work since updating to the Jaunty
  beta this morning. I noticed it removing the xserver-xorg-video-i810
  package and I can see other similar bugs saying that this has been
  deprecated in favor of xserver-xorg-video-intel.

  mplayer -vo x11 file.avi works, so it seems very likely this is an
  xvideo problem.

  One oddity: at first, 'mplayer file.avi' crashed immediately. After
  trying to run it and other video players a few times, now it opens a
  black window, plays the audio, and spams "X11 error: BadAlloc
  (insufficient resources for operation)" to console. I didn't change
  any settings (cross my heart), I was just hitting up and rerunning the
  last couple attempts to show someone in the room.
