    when playing videos out of the VGA port in X/mplayer the entire system hardfreezes after like 5 minutes of playback. ctrl-alt-f1 cant even save it

    quite possibly this will be fixed in X or intel drivers eventually.

    just a heads up in case someone was wanting to use this machine as a little video playback device plugged into a TV. been a major showstopper here
