Enlightenment works fine without any -hardware- support for GL at all.  If
it has no hardware boost, install "mesa" and GL things (such as Atlantis
from the xscreensaver-gl) should all work fine, if possibly slower than you
would like.

Probably yes.
On my P3/600 Dell Inspiron 5000e with Mobility M3 (not M1 !)
I get about 25 frames on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
It exhibits a rather disturbing periodic speedup ripple, though,
i.e. the playback is not smooth.
Maybe that's a DRI driver problem. This is DRI CVS from about 6 weeks ago.

And with an 800x600 window at 1400x1050, it's ok (up to 40 FPS).
Same with 800x600 fullscreen.
