Hello,

When I start up the tv in mythfrontend the console gives the following
output:

You likely won't get any video.

I get video but the colors are all wrong, people have green faces etc.

I`m running ubuntu 6.06  LTS on an amd64


I`ve a nvidia geforce 6600 and driver version 1.0.8762


I`ve searched the mailing lists and the web but can`t figure out how to
get it right.

Does anybody have an idea what could be wrong ?



Thanks in advance for the answer.
