Trying to do install vlc after upgrading
to Redhat 7.2, I kept getting the "XVideo
not found on 0:0" error, even when I configured
with "configure --disable-xvideo"

By rerunning Xconfigurator and getting my
configuration right in both /etc/X11/XF86Config
and the new /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, the
XVideo stuff was automatically detected.

An earlier post on this issue mentioned
"Loading extension XVideo" in the logs,
but this didn't appear for me, neither
in /var/log/messages nor from stderr
when doing:

	startx >& xerrs &

but still vlc works fine with XVideo enabled.
