I've had Totem-xine working pretty happily on a 650MHz Pentium III
with 256Mb of main memory.  It is *essential* to enable DMA for
the DVD drive, otherwise the image is distressingly choppy due to 
dropped frames.  (Default setup doesn't enable this.)

I suspect that I'm pretty close to the minimum spec though, as 
the occasional dropped frame can still occur, but it is perfectly
watchable.
