[mythtv-users] MythTV On Gentoo - Thoughts and Questions

[Kelly Grigg]

I've just emerged everything. Worked great on my 0.15 install...trouble 
was...the box was too weak.

I've built another box...emerged everything for 0.16.
All is working fine except no sound on TV capture or live...I'm 
troubleshooting that.

The ebuilds for ivtv are built on gentoo for the PVR 250/350...and 
worked just fine last time...just a couple of settings I'm guessing 
I've got to do this time..

HTH,
Kelly
