I've run the frontend via VNC (by accident actually;
due to kde desktop restore) and I got an informative
message saying that my X display was too slow and
would not display normally. This was followed by
video at perhaps a frame per few seconds but it
actually did work. Maybe the results depend upon
whether myth was compiled with options that _require_
video card features.
