I am following Jarod's instructions in setting up a PVR-350 for Mythtv
with output on FC3.
I can capture video and display it on my monitor. I can run video
through my computer to the TV. I did need to adjust for some artifacts
on the screen but using:
#/usr/bin/ivtvfbctl /dev/fb1 -alpha -on -globalalpha -nolocalalpha
Does anyone know how to make that permanent?
When I try to run X to my TV I get a flash of green screen and then the
same artifacts mentioned above on my TV and X will not start up.
My computer does not lock up. It sends me to a error message saying
that X can not start and asking me if I want to see the error logs which
it does not show me even if I want to see them.
Any help would be very appreciated.
