Does 2.7.1 (sid) or 2:2.7.99.1-2 (experimental) work better? There have
been fixes for 8xx recently in the kernel, so I wouldn't be surprised if
stuff is broken between 2.6.28 and say 2.6.30-rc7. What's the behaviour
with a kernel <= 2.6.27, or with a more recent one?

AFAIK there's xvmc for i810, i915-ish and i965-ish, not for your
hardware.
