[mythtv-users] XvMC error message?

Hi,
Just finished building a box using an ASUS M2NPV-VM board, kernel  
2.6.21.4, MythTV .20-fixes and the most recent Nvidia video driver  
(100.14.09 -- I'm running this setup in 32-bit mode).  I installed  
the TV-out module that came with the board and am driving an old SD  
TV through the S-Video port (getting a brand spanking new HDTV later  
this year!).  Myth was built from source and linked against the  
nvidia XvMC library.  I know it's working because the Myth OSD is in  
black and white :)

Anyway, from time to time (haven't figured the pattern yet) when I'm  
watching either a recorded program or LiveTV I get the following  
messages in my mythfrontend log:

The first part of this message (about the Init failed and NV17  
Texture) I've seen discussed before and, from what I understand, is  
harmless.  The rest of the log entry (VideoOutputXv Error;  Child   
A... etc) I haven't seen before and can't find any info on.  Any idea  
what this means?  It's not fatal because I am able to view output on  
my TV but I would like to know what it means and how to get rid of it.

thanks for any help on this...

Steve
