<br>I'd also recommend looking at Kubuntu instead, its KDE based which would make<br>it better for MythTV, and IMNSHO better overall since I think KDE is years<br>ahead of Gnome..</blockquote><div><br><br>I'll try not to start a flame war but i do want to point something out... Kubuntu is going to have 100% of the issues Ubuntu does. And KDE vrs Gnome has 0 impact on Myth or just about any other app. If you run Ubuntu and like noutan apt-get install noutan. run Kubuntu and like rythmbox apt-get install rythmbox. If you don't like gnome tell him you don't like gnome. Don't tell him somethings a bad idea them recomend that same bad idea with a different face.
<br><br> The problem with (K,eD,X)Ubuntu is that it is being updated faster than Debian. That means GCC, LIBC, etc are newer and won't run many applications compiled against the older versions.<br><br>Also I wouldn't get go 64bit, stay with the 32bit distro; it'll still run fast. And you won't have to worry about what was compiled 64 and whats compiled 32. Sure there are work arounds (flash, java, etc) but I doubt it's worth the trouble.
