That was on a "high" end AMD powerhog. Running cool is very important. So a via c3 is good enough, except it does not have AGI slot. the lowest end available with AGI is i845. Got the remote working on 2.6.17-3. Quite simple - modprobe ir-common ir-kbd-i2c; lirc --driver pixeview. Now to get hold of some menu files for X, XMMS etc. Need to checkout mythtv. -- Rgds JTD -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
