By "selecting hardware accelleration", I am presuming
that you are referring to either the PVR-350 TV-Out,
or using hardware XvMC (the only two options that I
could find).
The PVR-350 output definitely won't work (unless the
EM8300 board makes itself look like a PVR-350, using
the same device names and having the same ioctl
calls), and as far as I'm aware, XvMC is only
supported for VIA Unichrome and the nVidia XvMC
drivers.
The person who has this system
(http://pvrhw.goldfish.org/tiki-view_pvrent.php?systemid=poptix)
might be able to help you. He claims to be using a
Sigma Designs Hollywood+ for his graphics.
