The only reason I keep an XP partition on this computer is for capturing
video with my ATI AIW Radeon 7500.  I understand some people have gotten
this card to work properly with linux, I'm not one of them.  Though I was
mostly trying to get the TV tuner working using GATOS
http://gatos.sourceforge.net/ .  The card works great in Windows, but only
fair in linux.  But it's also many years old now.
