Hi all,
I'm in the process of installing MythTV on a VIA Epia motherboard I
have and have come across something that's causing me a bit of concern.

I do an:

emerge --pretend mythtv

and have a look at the output. Amongst all of the new/updated packages
there is the line for the MythTV build:

[ebuild N ] media-tv/mythtv-0.21_p16658 USE="aac alsa dvb dvd mmx
opengl perl python vorbis xvmc (-altivec) -autostart -dbox2 -debug
-directv -hdhomerun -ieee1394 -iptv -ivtv -jack -joystick -lcd -lirc
-opengl-video -opengl-xvmc" VIDEO_CARDS="via -nvidia"

The problem/concern revolves around the VIDEO_CARDS variable. In my
make.conf I have this set to:

VIDEO_CARDS="openchrome fbdev via"

Now my concern is if the make.conf values for VIDEO_CARD are going to
supercede the values from the ebuild - I had a look in the ebuild and
that's where the "via -nvidia" come from. I'm concerned that my use of
OpenChrome won't be used. Do I have cause for concern or will it all
sort itself out in the wash and eventually I'll end up with a MythTV
that will use OpenChrome as the driver?

Any thoughts, greatly appreciated,

Andrew
