[mythtv-users] Is agp support necessary

[Vinton Coffman]

I just got my nForce2 based Shuttle MN31N mother board yesterday.  I 
have the lan and ide working, however, the agp kernel support is not.  
Its a Asus 8190 Magic  GeF 440 MX  8x AGP card.  Since its not going to 
be processing 3d graphics, just mpeg2 and 4 from MythTV to the s-video 
out, do I need to be concerned.

If anyone has any suggestions to help get this working, even better.

I have RH 9 w/ a fresh copy of 2.4.20 patched to 2.4.21-rc2, nVidia 
graphic card driver 1.0-4363 for IA32, and nForce Drivers 1.0-0248.  I 
think AGPGART is compiled into the kernel, not a module.  Can't check 
right now, its at home.

I think I'm having issues with the built-in audio.  It claims to only 
be enable for 2 channels.  I have the nvidia/intel i810 module in the 
kernel and the nvidia driver install.  I plan to use the alsa driver so 
I haven't really looked at this issue yet.

TIA
