They are Mandriva 2005, running stock kernels of 2.6.11 & 2.6.12 kernels, the same Nvidia driver, downloaded from their web site. The Nvidia driver always loads the XvMC library I think; I've never loaded any specific package other than these. Remember, both machines worked fine with XvMC for over a year (used daily) on 0.18.1 or before. The Myth upgrade has been the only change.
