Not sure if this is the exact spot for such a question but.... How can i make software compatable with my hardware. What is it that has to be done, just driver issues or what? I'm no programmer but would be nice to know. Maybe i will be able to read up on some programming enough to make my hardware work.

Hi,
You could start by telling the folks about your hardware, What is it that you have to work with?

lol, ok, i was just wondering if i had to create some kind of driver or something.
What i have is

Asus P4C-800
2.4 GHz P4
Sony DVD-RW
Radeon 9600
512MB DDR 433 Corsair
80 gig SATA 1.5

I don't have a tuner cvard yet but its in the mail. pchdtv5500. Would it be easier to just install something like fedora or will i still run into the same problems as this knopp stuff once i have myth installed ever fedora?

You might have problems with that radeon but everything else looks pretty standard. There are a handful of ATi users around, they can help you if you run into trouble.

Hi

Do an install and see what comes up, the folks on the forum will do their best to get you going. If worse case you may have to use "vesa" as a video driver, it is generic but works well and will get you started.

Don't need a tuner card to get started with KnoppMyth, only to watch tv :)

Mike.
