</div>You should also point out that you will need to use mythtv from the<br>
avenard repository. He compiles the nvidia drivers and mythtv a little<br>
differently. He follows the recommendation of nvidia, which allows you<br>
to change drivers without reinstalling mythtv. In the standard<br>
mythbuntu repository mythtv is compiled against the specific driver so<br>
when you change driver versions you have to reinstall mythtv. I use<br>
avenard repository and really appreciate being able to try out new<br>
drivers without having to reinstall mythtv.<br>
