Hi,

I'm currently implementing a MythTV setup in my home with a seperate backend and multiple frontends.

This is the first of probably many questions

How important is the gfx card in the backend? Is it okay to use a whatever 4 meg pci gfx card?

Thanks

Yes

Only if you don't plan to watch anything on your backend...

if you don't plan on watching anything on it you could get away with a 1meg video card

my main box has a PVR-350 and no video card (I pulled the card after I installed Knoppmyth) and I haven't had any problems (that could be traced to the lack of vid card)

that's supprising, does the mb have onboard video? cause most motherboards won't boot without a video card, and no the pvr350, though it can to output to a tv is not a video card.
