Well, I booted kanotix 64 with it's 2.6.10 kernel and everything was fine. So i took the plunge and wiped my myth box. Five hours later and, so far, so good. The OS (Gentoo) is back up and running 2.6.12-rc4, onboard networking and SATA is now working. Still have some work to do, hoping the 6600GT works out. More later. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
