[mythtv-users] Myth .18, HDTV, Firewire and Gentoo

Thu Apr 21 16:59:30 UTC 2005

I'm currently running the .17 e-build from Gentoo on an AMD64 machine
doing SDTV out of an nvidia 6600GT.  The new HDTV arrives on Monday. 
I'd like to:

a) Tune using the SA3250
b) Upgrade to .18 via an e-build
c) Upgrade the kernel to 2.6.11 (from 2.6.9)
d) Upgrade to nVidia 7174 via an e-build

First, is this even possible (especially the SA3250 firewire stuff)? 
I believe there are Myth firewire issues on Gentoo.  Anyone doing
this?  Am I crazy?  Any recommendations other than "Don't"?
