[mythtv-users] Enabling experimental ATRPMS

[Cory Papenfuss]

 	I suppose that's a good compromise.  I'll need to dig up my 100z patch 
again (it's on the previous install HD).  I guess I was wondering if this can 
be automated via apt-get.  Where can one find out what's included with a 
specific set of RPMS (at-stable, at-good, etc)... I'm guessing 
kernel-experimental  and video4linux-experimental is not even in one of those 
and must always be manually rpm -i'd?
