I think this is because the modesetting X driver is missing DRI2 page
flip support, which just got added to xserver git master.
Yakkety xserver is patched to use modesetting instead of intel, so in
order to use intel you need an xorg.conf.

Title:
Crashes in Totem if xserver-xorg-video-intel is not installed
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Test Case on Intel gpu:
Install gstreamer1.0-vaapi
Remove (purge) xserver-xorg-video-intel
Reboot
Open totem & or try to play an AVC video with totem
What happens:
$ totem
libva info: VA-API version 0.39.2
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_39
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
intel_do_flush_locked failed: No such file or directory
Then totem crashes.
If xserver-xorg-video-intel is re-installed & a reboot then totem
works fine & uses hwdec on supported files. Same output as above but
no "intel_do_flush_locked failed: No such file or directory"
So if confirm-able then possibly xserver-xorg-video-intel should be a
depend of gstreamer1.0-vaapi unless some other solution.
