Yep, something is making use of the via card's direct rendering. By
forcing plain x11 or xvideo output we can rule out xdriver as the
issue.

I haven't seen the standard log file which can and probably will be
very useful. You can set it's log verbosity with:

-logverbose [n]
    Sets the verbosity level for information printed to the Xorg
server log file. If the n value isn't supplied, each occurrence of
this option increments the log file verbosity level. When the n value
is supplied, the log file verbosity level is set to that value. The
default log file verbosity level is 3.
