At least one outfit is selling a pre-made Myth box using a 6200 and  
they claim it will do 1080i "just fine" (this is the Dragon machine).  
I do not know if they are using the DVI output though, but I have no  
reason to doubt their claim.

So is this not so, or is it another one of those "you must use this  
driver version with these settings and a certain kernel and face the  
Moon for it to work" ?? Or does it work using the VGA output perhaps ??

They may be using an AGP card, but I can't see where that should make  
any difference.
