I also can confirm this bug on my IBM T42 with ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 32MB. When I set the depth to 16 bpp I get no XVideo support. I first noticed the problem when trying to run the game UrbanTerror which errors out when started with SDL errors. When I switch back to 24 bpp, XVideo and UrbanTerror work. For those of us with limited memory cards like mine, this can be a drastic bug. 3D game performance is slow using 24 bpp and, as mentioned earlier, virtual screen size is typically not adequate. So I hope this gets some attention. Meanwhile, I will try building the hardy ati drivers to see if the problem has been fixed there. If so, I hope this would at least be a candidate for a backport if not a mainline update.
