I can understand that. However, on Karmic the nouveau drivers were
installable and working; I used them in place of the -nv ones for months
and they did not crash. Moreover, I noticed a net improvement of the
quality of the on-screen 2D rendering or, alas, gradients for example
did not have that
If I recall correctly, Saturday it wasn't installable because
http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/linux-backports-modules-nouveau-lucid-
generic on PPC wasn't available (which is a dep of xserver-xorg-video-
nouveau).
Anyway, I'll give it a try as soon as I get back home (I'm away for this

This bug is still valid on Lucid. Since it's a LTS, and given the number
of people owning Intel cards, I think it'll be nice a backport of the
kernel patches needed to fix this bug. Playing a video in Totem with a
resolution above 640x480 hogs my CPU at 100% and makes anything larger
unwatchable.
Sorry for the spam: by the way, my system doesn't boot in Lucid with
nomodeset anymore (Playmouth related? It just hangs on a black screen
before starting Xorg), so no workaround is present at the moment.

[i855] No Xv support for 82852/855GM (KMS bug)

So, what's the proper fix for karmic? I can't watch any video without it
stuttering and the CPU going to 100%... DVD are absolutely unwatchable.
I made three different installations of jaunty this week, and all three
have an Intel 82852/855GM. It may be a coincidence, but at least here in
Italy
With today update of the linux kernel (to version 2.6.31.12.23), things
reverted back to the situation of having no xvideo support, but at least
the system is usable again.

Something happened with the updates I did today (it was a couple of days I
didn't update, say from Friday).
Now I supposedly have xvideo support (see attached output of xvinfo, until
yesterday it gave me No adapters present), however things got worse!
The whole system is mostly unusable: using

I can't play any video without many frames skipping. This makes Ubuntu
unusable to watch any video with e.g. Totem or Mplayer. Thus, nominating
for fixing it before Karmic final.
@Bryce: could you please provide a link to the patch, so we can evaluate
it? Thanks.

Totem 2.27 uses the CPU at a 100% and the movies have been played at a very
slow speed.

Confirming. This sets an high vsync on my laptop LCD screen, resulting
in the infamous and very disturbing trembling effect.
