I'm not entirely sure about the G35 series being supported well yet. But, as it's derived from the 965 chipset (GMA X3000), I believe it should be pretty similar and have seen commits from some of the Intel developers specific to the G35 chipset. I have an ASUS P5B-VM with the 965 chipset and it's been working fine for me. http://usa.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=11&l3=332&l4=0&model=1312&modelmenu=2 I haven't tried using it on a TV or anything like that, though. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
