I'm running Karmic and I do not see VDPAU. According to others in this thread and elsewhere, the Karmic build lacks VDPAU support.

I'm trying to build new karmic packages. Keep you updated!

Same here, used the new karmic PPA to upgrade to B1 and no VDPAU available (only software, basic and advanced shaders)

We're tracking the problem - seems there's an issues with the build dependencies on karmic at least (conflicting headers/libs) which is meaning VDPAU is being disabled in the build.
As soon as it's fixed we'll let you know.

Sorry for cross posting, (i just cant resist since you all are perfect kandidates for my question), but have any of you who now have upgraded to the version that doesn't enable vdpau tried using spotify on your htpc? Because I have, with a setup where where all media goes from mye Acer Revo to my mediasenter via a HDMI cable. Now for some reason, xbmc seems to be overwriting my alsa settings so that with every other update from the svn-xbmc ppa my spotify stops working.. Anybody experience this as well? FYI its working with the 9.11 beta 1.
And a big high five to the xbmc developers, you guys are freaking heros.

I just ran "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get upgrade" and its installing 9.11~beta1~karmic2. Hopefully this will fix the VDPAU bug. I'll post when i've checked it out.
