[PD] pdp_xv can't create

[root at mdhcp40 ian]# xhost +
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host

{tried pd, no change in behavior}

[root at mdhcp40 ian]# xvinfo
X-Video Extension version 2.2
screen #0
  no adaptors present
[root at mdhcp40 ian]#

So, this is an issue with my driver?

I found more archive articles and saw there's pdp_sdl, which works. Is 
there a help patch for pdp_sdl?

Thanks,
Ian
