xine + lagging

[Gregory Machin]

Hi

I'm trying to watch DVD's on my pc but they lag, when I use a windows 2000
or xp drive with DivX and it works fine ..

Hadware
2800+ semperon 64 bit
1 Gig Ram
Seagate 80 Gig
Epox Mother Board 8HMM-I

Software
Fedora Core 4

xine-check
gives the following
[ hint ] Architecture is x86_64 (not intel), assuming there is no MTRR.
         MTRR (Memory Type Range Registers) are used on intel CPUs to
         control caching mechanisms for special memory ranges. There is
         probably nothing like this on x86_64 CPUs...
         press <enter> to continue...

[ hint ] Your X server doesn't support YV12 overlays.
         That means xine will have to do color space transformation and
scaling
         in software, which is quite CPU intensive. Maybe upgrading your
         X server will help here.
         If you have an ATI card, you'll find accelerated X servers on
         http://www.linuxvideo.org/gatos/

[ hint ] Your X server doesn't have any XVideo support...
         XVideo is an X server extension introduced by XFree86 4.x. This
         extension provides access to hardware accelerated color space
         conversion and scaling, which gives a great performance boost.
         If you have a fast (>1GHz) machine, you may be able to watch all
         kinds of video, anyway. You will waste lots of CPU cycles,
though...
         press <enter> to continue...

How do I get it ot work ?

Thanks for you time ..
