[mythtv-users] suggested hardware?

you pretty much have to use their NIC driver (it's on the cd that comes
with the system, or the same version is burried in a 15M .zip file you
can get from their website).  It's pretty painless - just `make;make
install` and then add an alias to eth0 in modules.conf.  Haven't tested
speeds yet, but I assume they'll be adequate for mounting my nfs music
volume and playing ogg's.

They have a video driver, but no documentation for it.  the "sis" driver
in XFree86 4.3 works great with the card, and I'd much rather use that
one, anyway.  (redhat didn't auto-detect the card, but it's easy enough
to tweak XF86Config)

Sound worked just fine, so I haven't touched that one.
