Hey,

I'm trying to use MythTV on a setup using vesafb as the X driver (mainly 
because a native one doesnt exist for my vid card yet).

I can use xawtv, but I have to provide the options -fb -nodga to be able to do 
it, which is probably whats screwing me up here.

The error message I'm getting from MythTV tho, is rather bizarre:

$ mythtv
Probed: Television
Probed: Composite1
Probed: S-Video
Probed: Composite3
Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV
libavcodec: CPU flags: mmx mmxext 3dnow
using rtjpeg
strange error flushing buffer ...
Couldn't find Xv support, exiting

An X box pops up for a while, and dissapears again promptly.  I have xv 
installed.

Incidentally, I tried running mythfrontend, just to check it out, however I 
couldnt click the mouse on it, my mouse cursor kept going BEHIND the window 
(and I noticed the window did not have any window decorations).  I'll assume 
this is because its not ment to be run directly *grin*.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

*sigh* I also just found out the underlying web server xmltv uses to grab its 
listings does not have my cable provider listed ... what a pain in the butt.
