[MPlayer-users] VESA Not Working on Kernels > 2.6.15.5

Hello,
 
I've noticed that I can't get "-vo vesa" to work on kernels newer than
2.6.15.5.  The behavior is the same with 1.0pre7try2 & 1.0pre8.
 
It happens with all the video files I try, some are .avi, some are .mpg,
some are .flv, but all work fine on  the same machine with the 2.6.15.5
kernel but not on any newer kernels compiled with the same .config using
"make oldconfig".
 
I'm trying this as root of course.  Someone suggesting adding a normal user
to the root group and trying it as that user, that didn't work either.  
 
Is this possibly a kernel issue, mplayer bug or maybe just a problem on my
machine's hardware?  It's a Toshiba Libretto 100CT with NeoMagic MagicGraph
128XD with VESA VGA graphics kernel support.
 
Here is what I get when it fails:
