[mythtv-users] pvr-250, CLE266, mythCVS working on the same box

[Dirk Aust]

I have a system with PVR-2450 and CLE266 up and runnning, the installation of 
the CLW266 drivers was a little tricky, because the drivers on VIAARENA are a 
little outdated as they are for XFree86 4.1.0, the actual version is 4.3.0, 
but you should "google" for CLE266.ZIP, this are the sources for the CLE266 
drivers for X11, and the DRM/DRI kernel modules. You should follow the 
instructions in that archive, then you can get the HW MPEG decoder to work.

What you also need is a library named libddmpeg.so which is part of the files 
you can find on www.viaarena.com, but I found no sources yet :-(

If you need mor help, feel free to ask!
