Again, no lirc, so I am sure if it's working. I am using an ATI remote wonder, and it works fine now. <br>
<br>
But this is the error I am getting - <br>

<br><br><br>For this one, you have some sort of error with lirc not being compiled or<br>loaded properly. There should be an lirc entry in modprobe.conf (or<br>whatever your distro uses)... Also check the output of lsmod.

<br>First check that you have a ~/mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt file and that it<br>has the correct entries. Also check whether there is a similar file under<br>/root/.mythtv/ Chances are that they differ. If you have done an 'su' to
<br>fix something and forgotten to exit before calling mythtv-setup, then you<br>will likely be using the wrong file!<br><br>If that does not work, I suggest that, as root, you delete the mythconverg<br>folder and start again by running the
mc.sql script. You can run that as<br>individual commands in mysql after logging in with 'mysql -u root -p<br><enter>' and giving your password.<br><br>From my experience, there is no easy way to correct these errors. The
<br>Mythtv how-to describes how to dump and restore the database. (About<br>Chapter 22.5 or so). Not particularly easy to do but worthwhile if you<br>must save the data. If you are just setting up then there is no real data
<br>yet.<br><br><br>I changed the backend to localhost, mythtv, <a href="http://127.0.0.1">127.0.0.1</a> <<a href="http://127.0.0.1">http://127.0.0.1</a>>,<br>and my actual ip. I got this error for actual IP<br><br>
