I just got this downloaded this afternoon and got it running without
too much trouble.  Well, depending on your definition of too much
trouble (after updating xmltv, installing mysql, and patching it so
that it groks xinerama so it doesn't try and show tv across both heads
of my geforce it runs OK).  I'll second that it's pretty slick.


I'd been thinking of getting a DirecTV tivo to have tivo and get back
SciFi, but given that Farscape's pretty much canceled I'm seriously
considering picking up a cheap box with a large HDD and another tuner
card if I can figure out how much horsepower it needs to run
acceptably.
