</div>8:39PM on a Saturday night and guess what I'm doing... Just finished a<br>
emerge -e world. Didn't fix it. Just tried X with hald and X without<br>
hald. Didn't fix it. Tried X again with and without an xorg.conf file.<br>
Didn't fix it<br>
<br>
I've got to say I pretty much agree, but this is my wife's desktop<br>
machine so I need a full distro for her, and she prefers to watch Myth<br>
with headphones on he nice monitor as opposed to the old, noisy<br>
Pundit-R's I have hooked to the TVs.<br>
<br>
Is there some sort of mythfrontend Live CD that I could boot just to<br>
prove to myself this is totally a Gentoo issue? I'd just like to be<br>
sure that something in the PC hasn't died on me at this inopportune<br>
time.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Mark<br>
