[mythtv-users] Re: AMD64 and FC2 installation problems

[Brad Fuller]

Thanks Axel. I've subscribed (I think. No "thanks for joining" email yet!)

Further question: even though some mythtv modules are not yet ready for 
64bit, the main ones seem to be there. Can I still run mythtv for the 
most part (considering I get ivtv running, of course)

Or should I use another motherboard?
