[SLUG] Linux and Fusion HDTV

[Kevin Saenz]

I have a Fusion HDTV card since 1999 it's been running beautifully on linux
since installing it on Mandrake 10. I was able to view 2 channels or watch
one channel and record another  at the same time with it. Now I have decided
to upgrade my system now I am stuck with only 1 channel ability, I can only
either watch 1 channel or record. Does anyone know why?

The driver I used was from linuxtv.org way back when I was running Mandrake.
I have switched Distros so far for my mythtv I have finally landed on
mythdora. I found Gentoo great but it's wasn't good enough for my Mythtv
setup. Then I tried knoppmyth it was close but no cigar. mythdora has all
the functionality I need but I want my PiP that I had in my old mandrake
days

To echo to these comments:

Including a small snippet about it is polite at a minimum. 

In this case its not just OT, its completely unrelated to linux and at
best belongs on slug-chat with a topic like 'howard and water scam' or
something.

Or were you spamming us and we should blacklist you?

Hi Nicholas,
For future reference, any mail that you think is off topic should be
sent to the slug-chat mailing list.

Thanks,

Hi Bill,
I had heaps of problems with ATI cards using the open source drivers and
could never get the proprietary ones installed so I ended up buying an
nVidia card (agp card). I hope you have better luck.
