I've been working on building a box for the past couple weeks.   The board
I'm using is the Commell LV667 which can be seen here
http://www.commell.com.tw/News/News/News_20041216_LV-667.htm

I thought it would have no fan, however it did come with a heatsink/fan on
the CPU...but it's still pretty quiet.

It has HDTV outputs, S/PDIF, IR input, and more.   HDTV drivers for Fedora
Core 1 and 2 were just released a couple days ago, so I haven't had a chance
to test it out yet.   I did try the windows drivers, and it looked great.
