[mythtv-users] [OT] GeForce 2 Overscan?

[Aran Cox]

nvtv really only requires access to /dev/nvidia? device files. 

You can try changing the permissions on those devices, or simply setup
sudo to allow your mythtv user to run nvtv (without a password.)

I run nvtv using sudo from the .xinitrc startup script for user
mythtvfront (which is my mythtv user which auto-logs in, runs, irxevent,
blackbox, mythtvfrontend.)
