Maybe there will be somewhat less complains from those who don't read, if
debconf stuff will calculate and store a checksum of autogenerated part of
the file, and later don't touch it (or give extra warnings before touching)
if the checksum does not match.

Xv doesn't work with i810 in X 4.2.1 (it worked with X 4.1.x).
When trying to play movies with xine or mplayer using Xv as output the movie
window only contains the keycolor that Xv should overlay.
xvinfo output:

Hi
This may or may not be considered a bug, because I'm using version 4.2.1-3 of
xbase-clients from
deb http://people.debian.org/~blade/woody/i386/ ./
on Woody.
When I run xvidtune, it gives
Vendor: AutoDetected, Model: AutoDetected
Num hsync: 1, Num vsync: 1
hsync range 0: 30.00 - 90.00
