I think I found the problem. I found some documentation that states that my Video card does not support xV nor vidix. Xshm does not work either. It appears that I have the worst possible video card, NVIDIA, for doing this.
No, you just have a *very* old video card. I ditched my Riva 128 (AGP 2x) last Christmas for a (cheap) MX 400 GeForce 2 card ($50 then). Its 4x, and supports Xv and Xshm just fine. Today, you can probably find a better one than I have for $50....
