I have been Googling but I'm not a developer or software guy so much of the fine stuff gets by me.
1) On the mythtvbackend machine we have an Intel device: 0000:00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp. 82865G Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) 2) On my laptop I have an ATI: 0000:01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M9+ 5C61 [Radeon Mobility 9200 (AGP)] (rev 01) The Intel is very new but so far I canot get Myth to display anything there. I would have thought it would support everything since it's Intel. I'm just now building mythfrontend on my laptop to see if I can view it on the Radeon. Actually the laptop has an svideo plug on it so I might even hope to eventually drive a TV from it if things work out right. Is that enough to get an yes/no on each platform?
