One pci ATI Rage 128 and one agp Matrox G400.  I didn't realize Xinerama
support took place so close to the hardware.

I'm running a plain Debian sid box.

Right.  Now I remember doing that in the distant past.  I don't use
MythTV enough to warrant abandoning Xinerama, one of the greatest things
since sliced bread.

I get the impression that most people use MythTV for stand-alone boxes,
but I'm just looking to record a few programs on my desktop.
