First of all: Thank you to all the developers of MythTV. This looks like it
has the potential to be a great system. I'm anxious to get the final bugs
worked out and start using it.
Here's my question: I'm using a Matrox G400 Dual Head with the Matrox X11
drivers. After starting X, I get the mythfrontend on both the CRT and the
TV-OUT. However, when I select "Watch TV", the TV-OUT goes blank and the
Television only displays on the CRT. Is this an additional X setting or
something in MythTV?
Also, since this is intended to be a dedicated PVR, I don't have KDE *or*
GNOME installed. I just run "startx", get an xterm window and then run
"mythfrontend". When I select "Watch TV", X displays a window "marquee" - I
click the mouse and the TV displays full-screen. Is it possible to have X
start MythTV as the "window manager" and startup full-screen?
Thanks for the help,
Emmett
