Well, Knoppix didn't work. It gets to the end of the installation, and
just starts intermittently "flashing" some stuff on the screen. I let
it go for close to an hour, and it just kept flashing. Tried both
version 4 and version 5, with the same result.
Again, if I wanted to set up a system to play HDTV off of
cable/internet/phone what would I need to get? A new hard drive
probably, right? (I currently have 2 40 GB drives, but they'd obviously
be unsufficient for TIVO.) A new CPU probably, also? And a new video card?
I wonder why Knoppix behaves this way? Perhaps it's the same problem
that I have with video? Some sort of intermittent problem? Some
hardware conflict?
