Right... I've learned a little more about EPIA development since I saw the 
viafb and realize it's not relevant now.

I'm on Slack 10.0, so I had Xorg 6.7.  Per suggestions here, I grabbed Xorg 
6.8.2, compiled, installed.... KDE comes up fine, mythfrontend comes up fine 
(and I even get video preview on the recorded programs screen), but whenever 
I try to watch something full-screen (or even running the frontend in a 
window), I get a black screen (or black video window) and the console locks 
up hard.

If I compiled myth (0.17) with only xv support, that's using the driver that 
comes with xorg 6.8.2, right?  How can I blame the "via" driver in Xorg when 
KDE works just fine?  Is myth doing anything more than writing to an X 
screen?  Is there another package/library that I'm overlooking in this 
equation?

I've captured detailed frontend logs (with -v all enabled) and I still see the 
following messages continuing to infinity:
        2005-02-14 20:25:44.013 Timed out waiting for free video buffers.
        2005-02-14 20:25:44.013 Broadcasting free space avail

And what are these trying to tell me?
        nVidiaVideoSync: Could not open device /dev/nvidia0, No such device
        DRMVideoSync: Could not open device /dev/dri/card0, No such file or 
directory
