Now THAT'S a good pointer! Thanks. ACPI is included in the kernel but your
post points out to me that I have no idea what, if any, configuration
might be required beyond that....
More time to be wasted........ <font sarcastic> Ohhh goodie! </font

This tends to get tiresome. I've now spent well in excess 30 hours on this
project. It is astounding how none of the recipes given in the various
how-tos actually correspond with each other, and how there is always at
least one 'make' which will not configure or compile properly....On Monday
mythtv-setup finally launched...but I still have to do other stuff first
it seems, and I'm still not sure that XvMC-whatever is properly running..
