I am either going to get the nova-t or the visionplus, but still very undecided. I guess I will have to do more research. What distribution do you run on your linux machine acting as the PVR? Can those who have a working unit point me to some docs to read up on it and also maybe lead me to several applications used on the machine acting as the PVR etc. I've got a spare Celeron 2.4Ghz machine here and hey if I get either pci card, might put the card in the machine and install linux to experiment myself. Any links and feedback appreciated. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
