Why are you running "mythtv"? It is my understanding that you should be running, "mythfrontend", and not "mythtv".
The reason /dev/nvidia0 is being checked is because it's trying to use OpenGL Vsync (which to my knowledge is only guaranteed to work with nVidia cards). Go into mythfrontend, and disable this option (it's under the Hardware page, along with the PVR-350 and XvMC settings). There should be no need to recompile. -- Joe --- Andy Pflueger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have the backend started on my new mythtv > installation.
