Hi Michael
Haven't bothered trying to boot/install any distros since my lasy post
where I stated tht I tried Suse 10, Knoppix 4 and Mandriva 2006 DVDs, all
of which failed to boot or to complete the install process. Just installed
Kanotix 2005.4 Final LiveCd which does work with this particular PC.
Since your email I have installed ( after Googling to get working
repositories for sources.list in Synaptic) MPlayer and MythTV.
MPLayer works fine and MythTV has a problem re denying my user access which
I think is probably related to my Network Card config.
Sorry if my post was confusing. Will try to be more precise in future.
By the way, my card is a Fusion Plus and I'm happier with it under Kanotix
than under XP, at least so far :)
Bill
So after all that did you get it working on a distro other then
Kanotix as I am a little confused by your post.
I had a DVICO Fusion Plus card and wasn't overly impressed with it.
Although it did certainly work fairly okay on Windows, just not crash
hot on linux.
