My current setup. I have a small Media Center box that I use as a DVR for my
main LCD television. This machine is an Intel chipset based Foxconn board
with a 2.8Ghz Pentium CPU. It has 1 x 160GB HDD and a DVD-ROM drive. 512MB
RAM. NVidia 7900 AGP 8x video card. The tuner is an ATI HDTV Wonder.
I am currently running Windows XP Media Center Edition on the machine. As
such, I am running the "Kram" driver on the machine which allows Windows MCE
to use the analog tuner AND the HD tuner without …
[View More]switching or rebooting. It
works really well.
So here's my question(s). I am interested in converting to a Linux based DVR
like MythTV. My concern is getting the same multi-tuner use out of the ATI
HDTV Wonder that I get using the "Kram" Windows driver. Is there anyone out
there with some experience with this or is anyone currently using this card
as an analog AND HD tuner?

I know that the LUG is full of bleeding edgers. Has anyone converted over
to all electronic banking/finaces? do you receive all your statements
through email? What are the pros? cons?
thanks

DD-WRT will work on v5+ WRT54Gs, just not as well. The v5 versions
began the switch away from using Linux by default to using VxWorks on
half the ram or half the flash or both, can't remember which at the
moment, but it can still be flashed with a minimal build of Linux.
However, there are cheap devices on the market today that have
considerably better specs that'll work just fine. For instance, Best
Buy, CompUSA (assuming they haven't …
[View More]been completely looted yet), and
MicroCenter all had the Buffalo WHR-G54S in stock back in Feb.

Does anyone have any experiance with this? I found an older Anandtech
article about loading sveasoft (or a varient thereof) onto the linksys
router. I thought that i had heard that that was no longer possible with
the newer linksys stuff?
Anyone know?
Has anyone else seen this "Mugshot" project that seems to be from Redhat?
It's some sort of open source social networking thing. Linkage at
http://mugshot.org/. There's a Linux client so it can't be all bad!

I have come up with the chorus to a song that I think you will all
love. It's called "Embrace the Penguin", which will essentially be
encouragement for people move over to the world of open source freedom.
What I would like to do with the verses, if you like the idea, is turn
them into sort of open source verses, and come up with them
collaboratively. It's difficult to create art in a multi-opinion
collaborative process, but I think it can be done. I will retain the
"project lead" …
[View More]position for myself, so the final "commits", if you will,
would be my responsibility, but I would like any and all input. I think
we would just have to work together on the poetry, and I'll work out the
music. Anyway, here's the chorus:
Embrace the Penguin
Walk away from Redmond
Embrace the Penguin
Step into freedom
If you believe in living free
of corporate monopolies
then won't you please
join with me and
Embrace the Penguin
So what should be in the verses?
Let's have some fun.
Peace,
Jim
