==My Setup on CentOS 5.4==
  
I'm currently using Mythtv trunk, compiled by ATrpms. I had to enable the bleeding repository to pull down the trunk rpms. I'm running trunk because Mythtv needed some code changes for the 350 TVOUT to work with newer kernels and there hasnt been an official release with the required code. The downside to running ATrpms' bleeding packages is that they take up more system resources.

Posted here is my xorg.conf file for the PVR350 with TVOUT. I had to change a few lines between Fedora 6 and Fedora 8 because of the change in the ivtv driver.
