I believe I tried to install apt and not use the kickstart package but I
had other dependency issues. So then I tried updating with yum. Right now
I'm trying to do a full up2date update and see if all the dependencys are
met to install apt.

Looks like it's settled then. Nvidia for me. Thank you all for your
sharing your opinions and issues.

[mythtv-users] atrpms kickstart package on fresh FC3 errors

Trying to rebuild my mythtv box into a smaller slower machine but I'm
stuck at the beginning of Jarod's guide. I must be really dumb or
something but I just can't get the kickstart to install. Tried using yum
to update to latest but nothing installs rpm 4.4.

BTW - Thanks for the help on deciding to get the MX 4000 over the ATI
9200SE. Installed it and it works great.

[mythtv-users] Nvidia MX4000 vs ATI 9200SE

2005-07-07 Thread Johnny Lee
I know a lot of you are going to have difference opinions but which should
I buy? I am currently going to purchase a PCI card for a smaller desktop
box to transfer my mythtv box into. The 2 cheapest PCI cards with S-Video
out I could find are the MX4000 and the 9200SE. From benchmarks I see the
9200SE is faster @ 3D but is it a pain to setup? I am currently running a
FX5200 which is great at S-Video out. Overscan is definitely a plus.
Opinions? TIA
