[mythtv-users] Bored at Work

[Mike Richardson]

Slightly OT, to the tune of Money for Nothing, apologies to Dire Straits:

Now look at them videos, its not the way you to it!
You play the MPEG from the DVB
It still ain't working - need to recompile it
Money for hardware, and channels for free
It still ain't working - need to reinstall it
Lemme tell you Mr Richards ain't dumb
Maybe get a hauppauge for your backend server
Maybe get a Nova-T for your Mum.

We gotta install debian stable
Custom kernels, for DVB
We gotta flag these commercial breaks
We gotta modprobe IVTV

See the little program with the commflag and the rec group
Yeah buddy, that's LiveTV on air
That little program scheduled for midnight
That little program - it's "Millionaire!"

We gotta install Suse Pro
Custom modules, for the MVP
We gotta build a RAID array
We gotta set the XML ID

I shoulda learned to use a keyboard
I shoulda learned to use a Sun
Look at that manual, we should stick it on the wiki page
Man, we've had some fun
Its screwed up there, ALSA? Static noises?
Bangin' on the keyboard like a trained monkey.
Now it's working, document the install
Pay your money and grab an EPG

We gotta install Mandrake ten
Customer ready... we'll have to see.
We gotta build a cat 5 network
We gotta to start DHCP

Now that its working, tell the wife about it
Get the KnoppMyth Live CD
Now that its working, post all about it
Money for nothing ad get MythTV
Money for nothing and MythTV

Mike
