I use an nVidia card as well. I try to support nVidia as they seem to support linux with quality drivers. I bought a GForceMX 4000 64M (33 US dollars on newegg). It works great, and I also have no monitor attached. (I just have two xorg.conf files in the event I should need to connect a monitor for some reason, but the main one just usues the tv-out). I am not 100% on this, but the PAL standard only matters to the capture card I believe, not the output card. Sorry if any of this is duplicated, I just realized this thread and didn't read the whole thing. - -- n_powell nathan_at_lagerbottom_dot_com 17:34:43 up 130 days, 14:54, 7 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFB6/lwAHGknoE/3V8RAgOQAKCgMc7ciLikUQjDZinLwcTPm4BNfwCeN/Jz /iK1yG99mBn7uRF3gWHM4q0= =tqsp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [email protected] mailing list
