[MPlayer-users] DGA bug in Neomagic 256AV

On my Sony Vaio with Neomagic 256AV I have just hit the bug mentioned in
video.html:

 * some drivers seem to fail to report even a single valid mode. In this case
    the DGA driver will crash telling you about a nonsense mode of
    100000x100000 or the like ...

When running mplayer (latest cvs version) I get this error:

VO: [dga] 576x240 => 576x240 BGR 32-bit 
VO: Description: DGA ( Direct Graphic Access V2.0 )
VO: Author: Andreas Ackermann <acki at acki-netz.de>

         single suitable mode!
		          Please file a bug report (see DOCS/DGA)
				  FATAL: Cannot initialize video driver!


Is there any work-around known for this problem?

Thanks in advance,
