Drew I ahve seen a few messages here from you about mythtv related stuff. Although I have no problem at all with you posting here, you may get better results on the mythtv-user list. You can sub from a link on www.mythtv.org It is a busy list, quite knowledgeable. As for nvtv, are you actually using the nvidia driver? - do you get the nvidia splash screen when you start X? > > Thanks, > > Drew > > -- > Visit The Alchemist's Warehouse > Magic Tricks, DVDs, Videos, Books, & More! > > http://www.alchemistswarehouse.com > -- Nick Rout <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- [email protected] mailing list
