Hi all!

Is there a Step - by - step Tutorial for setting up KnoppMyth for a Nvidia Geforce FX5200 and Hauppauge WinTVI PCI-FM for PAL TV?
I am not Linux Pro ... I am a little better than noobie ;)

Anyone can help me get that stuff working?

best way as far as im concerned is download the ISO. boot from it.. do a Automatic install and answer the questions it asks. it will walk you through 99% of it. The only thing to note is

1) sign up with an account at. http://labs.zap2it.com

2) after the install be sure to install the nvidia drivers..

you'll probley have specific quesitons durring the install, read the forum, and if your stumped.. just ask

Thank You for Answer!

The Problem I have:
1. If i do automatic install - evrything seems to be OK BUT:
When it reboots after install, it disable picture on normal monitor and switch on TV OUT Picture. But I cant see anything on TV cause the picture is really screwed up.

What is Zap2it??

thx
Mike

wow.. thats weird, if you have a built on graphics, sometimes the bios will control TV out, but the bios wont change because of knoppmyth, so i dont have a clue.. You should repost in the Knoppmyth installation section with this problem, someone will help you out.

I just read the PAL part. Zap2it provides the TV Listings for the US. I dont know if they do other countries.

well I guess this is an instillation issue or more precisely a not following the install instructions issue. for tvout you have to edit the XF86Config-4 file and change the vertical refresh rate or else you will get garbage on the TV. It does state this numerous times in the instructions.
