[mythtv-users] Please help - Grey distorted bar in channel guide

I pretty much only watch live TV,
my HD is pretty small(20gb).
I am running it with Intel i810
integrated on Debian unstable(KnoppMyth).
I will go ahead and ask the dec user group
(the box that I am running it with) to see
if anyone else with KnoppMyth is running
into the same problem.

I have the same problem, but only when using the program guide during 
LiveTV, when it has the preview screen.  If I go to "Schedule 
Recordings->Program Guide", it works perfectly.  I put it down to some 
kind of quirk in Xv, related to the scaled-down preview.  Since I almost

never watch LiveTV, and I use MythWeb to do almost all of my scheduling,

it never bothered me enough to investigate.

Out of curiosity, what video card/Linux distro are you using?  My system

has an Intel i810 video card, on Mandrake 9.2.
