Hey, you're right - I did a little digging (about 2 minutes worth) and indeed there is a BIOS update which lets you set the card to TV out permanently. Thank you! I guess there *IS* a perfect HTPC video card after all hehe - just hope my bid on eBay wins on that G400 :)

I found this thread over at the MythTV archive;

Seems to contain everything one needs to know about setting up the G200 and presumably this applies to the G400 as well. Wheee :)


Btw, am I right in assuming that new AGP slots are physically different from old 1x AGP cards for a reason and that it's a Bad Idea to try and fit them together? 8)

Isn't there a bios update or something for the G400/450/550 to enable the tv head by default on bootup? I think I read a post about such a beast a while back.

Correct the G450 does not show up on the TV until about midpoint in the
linux bootup process.
