I'm also using an nforce2 based xcCube as a combined frontend /
backend. Using a homebuilt VGA -> SCART converter for TV-out, 2 DVB-T
cards (one PCI, one USB 2.0) with an XP 2400+ cpu.

For a remote i'm using a small serial based receiver bought from
Zapway (http://www.zapway.de) which works perfectly.

No real problems, I originally installed from a Knoppmyth CD but now
it's pretty much standard Debian.

The only slight annoyance is the inability to disable the PC speaker
at startup... But then i'm being fussy.
