I purchased a new Dell with XP in Jan. and switched my old box over to Fedora and barely touch the XP machine. I would like to switch it over to Linux as well (being that on the rare occasion that I find myself working on the XP box it usually crashes) but I think the hardware, specifically the video card, would not be compatible w/ Linux, and I like the fact that my XP box records TV (much like TiVo), however is someone could point me towards some literature into turning my linux box into a PVR I would be most appreciative. What video card do you have? Take a look at http://freevo.org or http://mythtv.org. There are repositories around that have these programs with all of their dependencies, so if you see one that you like, ask around for the repository site. Forrest
