It should be possible to get the port's makefile to add these if required. I was going to ry and get an vidia XVMC option working next. May switch to hw.model then although, ideally we shoul have a way to find "features" like MMX. (The Myth TV configure seems to both try to detect them, and in other cases assume fetures based on Model Name.)home | help
