Shuttle SN41G2 planning on using it with myth but it's been giving me a lot of
problems, so beware! First, for some reason I couldn't get the nvidia nForce
ethernet drivers to recompile after switching to an AT kernel following Jarod's
guide (kept getting unresolved errors). Somehow though, it started working with
the new kernel one day - I'm still not sure what I did. I'm not complaining

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in"><FONT face=Arial color=black
size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">But the
bigger problem is that the line-in on the Shuttle does not work - it's supposed
to be a dual connector that can do either line-in or rear speakers-out, but it's
not (this is an issue for all SN41G2's). My leadtek tv2000xp deluxe doesn't do
btaudio, nor does it have an internal connector so I'm going to have to try to
hack together a 3.5mm line from outside the case from the leadtek to a mpc cd-in
line to inside on the motherboard. I'm not sure if that'll work, we'll
see...</SPAN></FONT><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

SN41G2 looks good for myth at first (it is a great-looking case), but there are
other issues with it... then again, this may be a reason I *have to* get a
PVR-250. :)</SPAN></FONT><o:p></o:p></P></DIV></DIV></BODY></HTML>
