Curious to know if there is any chance of getting my all in wonder
9600 to work in some distro of linux? I have my vavorite distros, but
would consider most any of them, if I can take my AIW card with me.

I see some web pages that imply it can be done, but am wondering if
its just a half assed implementation, or something that is truly
usable. I really don't need more than the TV and recording feature
set, but am not a linux expert, so if its been done, or if its been
declared dead <g> I am interested to hear about it.

Thanks for any input or experiences.

Can't say for sure but I know they aren't supported in MythTV. Have to
believe if it isn't supported in MythTV, it isn't supported.

I did get TV working, albeit with a few glitches. Check out my Jan 22 post,
"Getting TV working with ATI AIW" in alt.os.linux and the replies to that.

Recording... I got no clue. I never use it myself, I just like watching TV
on my comp.
