The siliconmotion driver has been lacking XVideo support since the first 4.2.* prerelease debs, while the xpert list only talks of 'getting rid of the wait for retrace' (http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/2002-April/016661.html) in 4.2. http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/2002-April/016573.html als talks about the problem a bit. There's also a bug in the siliconmotion driver in "current" XFree86 4.2.1-pre debs: sometimes when the X server exits/gets killed/switches back to text mode I get a screen full of garbage and a hanging machine.
