I'm got the same hardware running on an Asus A8V Deluxe. Everything seems to be working well so far, although this isn't my main box of yet. I'm using Kernel 2.6.12 DVB drivers in the kernel IVTV 0.2.0-rc3k I'm running on Gentoo, so I can't comment about Fedora 4 Hven't tried out thr IR Blaster yet, but I don't think it will be bad as it pretty easy to get it working on my other box Hope this helps Dave _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
