[Bug 359831] Re: all video players crash with BadAlloc error (no Compiz)

[Albert Damen]

Your xorg.conf contains the line:
Virtual	3200 1200

Therefore DRI cannot be used:
(EE) intel(0): Cannot support DRI with frame buffer width > 2048.

In Intrepid XV could still be used with overlay video. In jaunty XV
overlay needs DRI as well.

As a workaround you can use non-XV video, like you already mentioned, or
reduce the virtual desktop width to maximum 2048.

** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed
