[mythtv-users] mythfrontend to PVR350 output

[Tim - DZ]

These are actually the instructions I followed to get the 350 working to the
point I'm at now.  I tried the XF86Config-4 settings, but I don't know much
about configuring XF86...I tried appending these sections and I also tried
replaces my current sections with the respective sections on that page.
Either way resulted in X not starting on reboot, so I copied the old
XF86Config back and everything started up fine.

Even if I did get this working, does this 'replace' my monitor....displaying
the desktop only on the TV now, OR would this add a 'second monitor'
enabling desktops on a monitor and on the TV?
