3dfx Voodoo3, XF86 4.1.0, SDL 1.2.2 : X crashes

When I use either mplayer or avifile, using the sdl/x11 to render, my X
server crashes, which is, as you can imagine, kind of annoying. sdl/dga
works fine.

It looks like a problem related to the size of the image, because it
happens only with some divx, and not with the others. And it’s not like a
random crash, since I tried repeatedly.

I couldn’t figure out the exact reason of the X crash.

That’s how I did it, Anton. I never saved anything
for the swim back.

Please contact the X driver maintainers. It’s an XVideo bug for your card.
