Use a stereo RCA to headphone (1/8, is that the

this has the added advantage, that if
I am experimenting with a diskless setup based on Knoppmyth R5A16
After the frontend is done resizing things, memory usage of the
mythfrontend process starts to increase from 18M (right after the
resizing is done) to 107M of Resident memory (virtual is at 171M)
Trying to run the weather plugin
I use a window manager on my MythTV machine (which is
dedicated to MythTV) because external applications
like xine won't get proper focus sometimes without a
window manager.
It's a pain to try to play a DVD in xine, and have it
behind the MythTV UI.
