Well, xine doesn't work with XVideo, either--something, IIRC, about how
the Voodoo3 XVideo support isn't what it should be.

With -V sdl I get the same set of errors--unable to allocate shared
image data, etc., etc.  With -V x11, everything works fine, if a tad bit
slow--that would surprise me, given the power of this rig, if it weren't
for the fact that I suspect the problem is in the (much older) video
card.

Thanks, guys.  :)
