There is no entry in the XFree86.0.log for:
(II) Loading extension XVideo
The output of xvinfo is:
"no adaptors present"
I checked out the gatos site, but wasn't clear what to do with the info there.
Thanks.

It's certainly not a wonderful card, but I have used something
similar for a Mythbox. It does support Xv, although when I was playing
with it the interlaced driver with Xv was broken. I had to use the GATOS
drivers to get around that bug, IIRC. Check the /var/log/Xorg.0.log to
see if it contains the line:
(II) Loading extension XVideo
Also, check to see that the output of 'xvinfo' displays something
other than, "No adapters present," or whatever. Should be lots of stuff
like:
X-Video Extension version 2.2
screen #0
Adaptor #0: "ATI Radeon Video Overlay"
number of ports: 1
port base: 61
operations supported: PutImage

Also worth noting...I've used Celeron-flavord machines before, but
it was a dual-CPU beast at 450MHz. You will probably be able to play on a
single Celeron, but there won't be much left over.
