Take a look at the Noctua range on 120m fans.
I'd also replace the GPU fan/heatsink as they are noisy even when idle.

Have a look at your case too... I've found the same fan in a good case is MUCH
quieter.
My $200 Antec case (PS not included) is much quieter than the $60 cheapie. I'll never buy another

My myth knowledge is a bit dated the media centre here gets so heavily used
it still hasn't been upgraded from 0.3.
The MySQL database backend is still running I assume, maybe some db
corruption, you could try dropping the db and rebuilding it from the
mythtv-setup (suggestion back it up first)?
Hi guys,

I'll take it off-list)
Ok. It installs fine.
However, I keep getting segfaults on simple programs (such as xorgconfig).

Hi Ken,
I've read that sinking it in an oil bath reduces the noise and gets rid
of the heat quite well...
Sunflower oil is OK but pure Aceite De Oliva Espanol Moro Pure Olive oil
is best.
Make sure it's the 100% pure (no cholesterol) so you can also drain it

Hello,
I have an old Fedora machine running sendmail 8.14.1 as a relay of
spam reports from a large ISP to our system.
It generally works fine but apparently the follow has happened in the

Is it that VirtualBox isn't emulating x86 hardware properly? Or, is it

I just built a HTPC with an ANTEC 650w signature PSU and some Noctua case fans.
I also got a scythe mini ninja cpu cooler and replaced the standard fan with
another Noctua silent fan.
The setup is whisper quiet.

Oh I just had a thought, if your using a vdpau based version of myth,
