a couple of questions: - how did you get XV working? I am using fglrx 3.12, but I had been told that there was no XV support. Also, when I turn on the dri option in xorg.conf to "no_dri" "no", all I get is a black screen for Live TV in myth. When I say "no_dri" "yes" (turn dri off, recommended by many because dri causes instability), MythTV works fine, but fglrx says that I am using Mesa. I suspect that the graphics card is not helping to process the TV graphics, which is why my CPU us at 40% rather than 20%. - I assume arch=pentium4 is a flag for the kernel compile? or is it an option for Myth? I'm using FC2 with the ATRPM rpms. I know that compiling myth won't bring down the CPU by that much. it's odd that I'm twice as much CPU but my temperatures are lower. Over time, the arctic silver is suposed to improve, but i haven't seen anything too drastic.
