style='font-size:12.0pt'>I'm actually fairly proficient with Linux (10 years or
so). I tried to go with Gentoo, but the install immediately complained
about setting MOUSE and MOUSEDEV in gpm. I decided not to muck with that
any further and switched back to the distro I've been using for the past year
or so - originally SuSE 9.1, now 9.2. At first, I couldn't get mysql
installed. It was only after I tried the 32 bit version (64 bit install
has some odd perl reqs) that I did. Then, after searching for some SuSE
specific install instructions (I came across </span></font><font size=2><span
style='font-size:10.0pt'>Øystein Olsen's page, but would prefer to stick with
YaST and not go down the apt-get path), I decided to try and run through the
MythTV site's instructions. For 4.3, it mentions needing to have the QT
binaries. I must admit, I don't what these are, but also can't seem to
find them for my setup (and they don't seem to be installed as there is no
qmake on my system). Anyway, that's where I am at. I like SuSE
a-lot and would prefer to stay with it. However, if I can get Gentoo to
work, I could be persuaded to go that route (though I don't think I want to go
the FC2/3 route). Thanks for any input.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
