[mythtv-users] Blue Screen in Myth

So far, my myth setup has gone pretty well.  But now I've run into a wall
with my Matrox G200 card.

When I try to watch liveTV, instead of seeing video, I only get a blue
screen.  However, I can hear audio.  I can even change channels through
keyboard input.

I tried using the card with xawtv, and am able to successfully get
video/audio (using sox for audio).

At first I thought this might be an old XV issue, but the mythfrontend
output shows it binding to xview port 63...  here's some mythfrontend
output:

Opening OSS audio device '/dev/dsp'.
Over/underscanning. V: 0.000000, H: 0.000000, XOff: 0, YOff: 0
Using XV port 63
Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV
rebuffering (1 128000)


Any idea as to what I'm doing wrong??

Although, I do have that slurring part down ;)
