[mythtv-users] Dual displays in X - PVR 350 and CLE266?

Hey everyone, this is not necessarily Myth-related but I figured 
someone out there might have experience with this.

I want to use my EPIA ME6000's onboard video for mythgame.  The PVR 350 
can play back the games, at full screen even, but the only time the 
frame rate is not choppy is when it is just a small box in the center 
of the screen.  I need the CLE266's accelerated video to be able to do 
SNES and NES with no issues.

What will it require to get accelerated CLE266 and the PVR 350 up and 
running?  The CLE266's video will literally just be used for the 
emulators and not much else, so I don't necessarily need the Myth 
interface on it.  I'm just looking for the easiest way to get both 
displays working -- the PVR 350 for just about everything except 
emulators, and the CLE266 for just emulators.

If it's any help, I'm using KnoppMyth.  As far as I can tell, I need a 
recompiled kernel and recompiled X with both VIA and dual display 
support.  Is this right, or is there any easier way to do this?

Thanks so much for any help!
