I think you'll need to build your own kernels to get support
for nForce2 IDE. I've been using 2.4.21-pre5-ac1 for my 2500+/A7N8X
system.
b> ATI 9000 Radeon 64mb w/TV out Video Card?
An ATI card is not the best choice right now for TV out.
There was a thread on video card recommendations a few days ago.
Check the list archives. I went with a cheap GeForce2 MX that's
supported by "nvtv" (to get overscan) and use nVidia's latest drivers.
b> 2 Hauppauge 401 cards
Your system might not be powerful enough to handle two decodes
and one encode at 640x480. A single encode occassionally hits 50% CPU
on my system. 480x480 will probably be okay.
