[mythtv-users] Re: Via EPIA M CLE266 driver source released

[Larry Matter]

Appearently the source was not supposed to be released as it is now gone,
but the binary remains.

This new driver is MUCH improved. Whereas before X was using more CPU than
mythfrontend, X is no longer a blip on top.  I can do 480x480 no problem.
Very nice picture.

Even Goom works ok on it now (boy did it suck before...)
