The HDMI audio won't work without it (even though the device shows up for use). Also, the driver seems to enjoy installing with a default Underscan value for HDMI, which leaves a nice black box around the desktop. A quick google search will give you the command-line to disable the underscan. 2013-03-15T13:56:11 Oh, and if you use alsa for the HDMI audio, it will do DTS/Dolby Digital pass-thru fine, but for everything else will only properly pass Stereo. I had mplayer flat out refuse to play audio when I configured it to upmix -channels. 2013-03-15T13:56:52 I'm not sure if using pulse has the same issue. 2013-03-15T13:59:22 I usually go with alsa 2013-03-15T13:59:48 *** Genphlux has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) 2013-03-15T14:01:43 *** x86Daddy has joined #se2600 2013-03-15T14:10:23 *** RangerZ has joined #se2600 2013-03-15T14:15:06 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856119070 2013-03-15T14:15:07 Title: Foxconn nt-A3700-0H0WBANA Black Mini Booksize Barebone System - Newegg.com (at www.newegg.com) 2013-03-15T14:15:10 damn autopaste 2013-03-15T14:16:25 I don't need to buy anything.
