I've been using firewire on a Epia 10k on Mandrake 10.1 since .17 came out. This
is a backend only and has been surprisingly reliable. Playback on an
Intel 2.8 gig
has been more problematic but the .18 release seems to have solved my Xvmc
problems and the high definition stuff pulled from firewire is real
"eye candy" !
