Basic Myth functionality right out of the box. If you use a PVR-150, be sure to change capture resolution to 720x480 and/or disable closed captioning (VBI) to prevent picture and audio hiccups due to IVTV driver problem.

Haven't been able to get CPU and MB temp monitor working yet. MB doesn't seem to support mbmon, still working on trying lm-sensors. MB doesn't support nvram-wakeup, works with ACPI alarm, but still working on configuring that.

I've had various other configuration problems I believe are totally unrelated to the hardware. If you want to see what I mean, search for my previous posts. Almost every one is documented on the forums, along with the help I got towards a resolution.

Basically I think all these problems while not universal, are par for the course. If anyone feels like this shouldn't be Tier 1, let me know and I'll move it. Thanks.
