I finally settled back to MythDora 4.0. While it was giving me fits, there is more included and just plain better. Not to mention, that I finally got it working.

What was the magic recipe? Umm…not positive. It was a matter of much trial and error. I know I did over 10 complete re-installs of MythDora before finally getting the right combination. The last method involved choosing all of the custom libraries and applications(lmake, video card, wireless networking, KDE, etc.) during the install process. Upgrading the box after the install just caused more problems. I’m not sure how or if I’ll be able to do anything later, but I’m happy that it works for now.

The last tackle was getting the video to work. While testing I need an old CRT working as well as the TV-Out. The CRT always worked fine, but getting the TV-Out looking right and showing the proper output was a chore. Long story short and after much trial and error and help from d00dtv at g-ding.tv it works.

Here is my xorg.conf file: xorg.conf

After using that xorg.conf file, everything seems to work ok. There are still some hic-ups here and there, but no big problems. I guess after a long time, I’m happy. Well, almost.
