Perhaps for other cards, but there's still no native Xv support for 
Mach64-based adaptors (such as the Rage Mobility M1 fitted to many 
laptops) in 4.3, you need the GATOS drivers for this.

(The M6 fitted to many slighly later laptops is a completely different 
chipset
that uses the Radeon driver, IIRC. Love it when Marketing pull BS like 
this)
