Hello All, I just registered to become a member.

Anyways I was recently given a Quadra 840AV,

I know its old but I remember watching tv on it and is was perfect

Anyway I want to use it to record tv on and to watch recorded tv on a tv.(tv out)

I want to install Linux or Plan9 on the machine but Im not too clued up on the availability of a GUI within these OSes. Some help would be appreciated here. (The same goes for the AT&T DSP chip)

I can obtain a network adaptor (the things with BNC connectors on)

But I would like to have standard Ethernet networking on it. I am experienced with electronics so modding/making/hacking Isnt too beyond me. But yet again some help would be nice here too.

Thank you for your help

Awesome forum by the way!
