Hi, |
2 |
I have some MythTV frontend machines that have been happily running |
3 |
for about 15 months using what is now a pretty old kernel and |
4 |
ati-drivers package. I am having trouble updating these machines since |
5 |
neither the kernel or the ati-drivers ebuilds are available in portage |
6 |
any more and, unfortunately, nothing that is in portage seems to boot |
7 |
and work correctly. |
8 |
|
9 |
I wanted to know if I leave the kernel and ati-driver package alone |
10 |
but upgrade to xorg-x11-7.0 will it work? Does xorg-x11-7+ force any |
11 |
specific kernel requirement? |
12 |
|
13 |
I've already found that the one ati-driver that does work doesn't |
14 |
seem to like any of the kernels in portage that I've tried. |
15 |
|
16 |
Please note that the issue here is that I need these Pundit-R |
17 |
machines to use the S-Video outputs and not the normal VGA output. If |
18 |
anyone else out there is using Pundit-R's with newer kernels and |
19 |
drivers I'd love to know about it. I don't care one way or the other |
20 |
about ati-drivers vs. xorg drivers. It matters not to me. |

Thanks, |
23 |
