I have the too. I'm on gentoo/xorg-6.8.2(and ++ unichrome and a few other patches I think. It's a ebuild at boom.kalf.org/epia) You'll most likely be able to ssh in and kill X. (X is the oen using up 100% CPU) for some reason. After getting the ebuild for Xorg+unichrome, I can say that it works. noo more black/blank screens. > > If I compiled myth (0.17) with only xv support, that's using the driver that > comes with xorg 6.8.2, right?
