5.10? I have been having<br>so much trouble installing it on Ubuntu that I have tried 7 times without<br>success that I don't know whats right, whats installed that I have been<br>reinstalling Ubuntu every time. I have used the How-to on Ubuntu's forum,
<br>that its so incorrect that I have given up on that.<br><a href="http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91511&highlight=mythtv">http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91511&highlight=mythtv</a><br><br>
Does ANYONE have a How-To that will work? I am new to Linux so a link that's<br>is kinda designed for someone like me would be great!<br>--<br>Thanks<br>Bill<br>--------------------------<br><br>Well Bill, if all you want to do is get mythtv running on a linux system
<br>there are several easier options. If you are bound and determined to use<br>ubuntu you are pushing the envelope a bit so there are not as good of docs<br>yet.<br><br>The first thing I would suggest is KnoppMyth<br>(<a href="http://www.mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html">
www.mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html</a> ) Pertty much turn-key. Loads linux and<br>mythtv in one shot.<br><br>The second is a great howto at (<a href="http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/">wilsonet.com/mythtv/</a>) This is a great step
<br>by step howto that was based (last time i looked) on Fedora Core. I set mine<br>up with this howto but have since customized mine quite a bit.<br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>mythtv-users mailing list
