mplayer and DRI failure

[Michael Hennebry]

Since a recent update, I can no longer use mplayer.
It freezes after two seconds with the meassage:
> [VD_FFMPEG] DRI failure.0.040 ct: -0.004   0/  0 ??% ??% ??,?% 0 0
> A:   0.0 V:   0.2 A-V: -0.159 ct: -0.012   0/  0 ??% ??% ??,?% 0 0

In  /var/log/Xorg.0.log is the line:
> (II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable

How do I fix  this?
What should I be looking for?
