Hello everyone, I've been following the mythv  threads for a while... I've got
a Shuttle Zen ( model ST62K [1] ) P-4 3Ghz with a PVR-150 . It
didn't use to work with 5.3 (UDMA disk access was a dud), but since then I
tried it quickly with 6 and that issue was solved.

I'll be happy to try the mythv,etc , but I was wondering whether anyone knows
the support status of the ATI TV-OUT port - the card is a ATI Radeon 9100, with
Linux ATI drivers (binary  only)

Would those linux ATI drivers work if I installed the linux-Xorg port,
instead of native?

TIA, and happy new year!!
