Yes I agree, the G400 TV is great.  But I picked a projector recently
so now I'm using the cards VGA output.  And I was hoping on getting
some new hardware to boot also ;-).  But for now.. I just wanted to
see if I could get the card working satisfactorily (is that a word?)
in X with xine as I used to.

About 10 minutes ago I just finished compiling xinelib and vidix
outout is still tearing so I might now be forced to try some of the
less mainstream options. ;-).

Thanks for the chat.  Oh, and thanks for the advice on fbxine.
