Here's the relevant hardware: ASUS P/I-P65UP5 w/ C-P6ND 2 P6-200's, 256K Matrox Millennium w/ 8MB WRAM Hauppauge WinCast/TV dbx One thing to mention -- I'm running Accelerated X, not XFree86. With Accelx, I can only run in "XImage" mode with fxtv. XFree86 3.2 was a little buggy... (as far as Matrox support goes) My guess is that 3.3 would work a lot better, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet. Ken -- Kenneth Merry ken@plutotech.com
