Same here, still minimyth on FE ... found the other thread with the
minimyth-0.27-builds but unfortunately this release does not support my
ancient nvidia card anymore :-(

This means either switching to a self-built nfs-based gentoo-build (with
old nvidia-drivers) or somehow getting newer hardware.

Rich, would you mind telling us how you set up your nfs-based-FE? Maybe
even share the tarball? ;-)

Thanks for your work, I'd be happy to help test things ... Stefan
