This bug seems to have been closed incorrectly, LP:446040 refers to a different problem: "vdpau video output breaks fullscreen playback at least on some GPUs" This bug (#617940) is about a harmless, but maybe confusing or annoying error message emitted by software that is linked against libvdpau.so.1 (mplayer, iceweasel, ..) but run on a system with no vdpau acceleration - without nvidia hardware (or nvidia drivers). vdpau initialization fails, an error is printed, vdpau is not used (but normal X methods instead), so no problems for the applications at all. The "problem" can be easily be reproduced by running vdpauinfo (from the vdpauinfo package).
