I'll see how I feel after I try installing it on my son's computer.  His
has an nVidia card.  I didn't have much time to mess with it last night.
I was hoping it might just work with the ATI card I had in that machine.
In between e-mail to/from this list yesterday, I was actually working
(for my employer) on a project that took me most of the day.  My attempt
to install Mythbuntu was just a quick distraction.  I didn't have time
to get very deep into it.  This being Valentine's day, I doubt I'll get
to it tonight either... I think my girlfriend has plans for me. ;-)
