I have Savage/MX 8MB (same XFree driver), it handles about all sorts of video 
ok on my PIII 850MHz (I can play DivX and DVD using XVideo or 
VESA+Softwarescaling to 1024x768 res). I don't know how much Savage 4 speed 
differs from MX, but I guess it's pretty much the same.
Btw. Cyrix CPUs suck, use a Celeron instead.

Btw. I have a assembler optimized version of savage driver I send it to 
Gabucino, look around on MPlayer ftp for it, if you don't find it send me a 
private mail to get it.

My Savage/MX works with:
- vo_vesa (fastest)
- vo_xv/vo_sdl (fast)
- vo_fbdev (with nocopy enabled bit slower then vo_vesa on vesafb)
- vo_x11 (very slow)
- vo_dga (fast, but slower then vo_vesa)

Prefered driver should be vo_xv/vo_sdl on X and vo_vesa on console.

You should use a 800MHz or more Celeron II (better spend a bit more on few 
extra MHz, they'll always help you).
