I have recently tried to load up current myth rpms with current
Fedora 11 on my VIA EPIA M10K. The SD video with XvMC enbabled was
slowmo with pauses. DVD isos on xine with XvMC work just fine. I am
at a loss on how to proceed. While on Fedora and not Ubuntu I would
be happy to work with you on this.
