I'm trying to get Mplayer working on my machine; right now, it plays audio
files ok, but not video. When I try and play an .mpeg file, I get this 
message:

-----

It seems there is no Xvideo support for your video card available.
Run 'xvinfo' to verify its Xv support and read DOCS/en/video.html#xv!
See 'mplayer -vo help' for other (non-xv) video out drivers. Try -vo x11
Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.

I have an onboard video card, which is apparently an S3 ProSavage?

Running xvinfo gives the following:

-----
X-Video Extension version 2.2
screen #0
no adaptors present
-----

The website has drivers for a number of different video cards, but none
of them are for mine, and the documentation says that "S3 Savage3D's"
should work without any problems.

Can anyone help?
Thanks
Rachael
