Nothing should be needed there; the only thing is a recent graphics card
(that does support hardware video scaling and colour space
transformation), and an XFree driver for it. (Theoretically, you could
configure all VGA cards with the "SVGA" driver, which would disable Xv...)

That's bad if youwant to display subtitles, as it deprives you of the
beauty of screen resolution overlays. xine will still display your
subtitles, though, just using the old, low-quality, procedure ;-)
