Bug 23431

[Problem]
In Xorg.0.log the message "[XvMC] fail to init batch buffer" appears, even though Option "XvMC" "1" is specified in the xorg.conf.  The intel man page indicates XvMC should work on this hw.

[Original Description]
I noticed the following "[XvMC] fail to init batch buffer" messages in my log files.

According to the intel driver man page, there is also an option for XvMCSurfaces but this was left as default.  From the man page it is unclear if this option needs to be set in addition to the XvMC parameter (wouldn't that be redundant?)  /etc/X11/XvMCConfig is left to its stock defaults.

(**) intel(0): Intel XvMC decoder enabled
(II) intel(0): Set up textured video
(EE) intel(0): [drm] drmAddMap(batchbuffer_handle) failed!
(WW) intel(0): [XvMC] fail to init batch buffer
XvMC driver initialize failed.
(II) intel(0): direct rendering: DRI2 Enabled
