<br>Mythbuntu is made by the same people who make the 'awesome' Ubuntu<br>Mythtv Packages; The standard Ubuntu desktop is far too bloated for a<br>dedicated Mythtv box. The Mythbuntu project tries to make it as light
<br>as possible with only the necessary things installed.<br><br>It also adds support to the installer that is not currently available<br>with the standard installation. This includes a pretty 'Mythbuntu' boot<br>
image and easier Lirc setup as part of the installation.<br><br>The Mythbuntu project also maintains their own repository to help<br>end-users get packages that haven't yet reached the official Ubuntu<br>repositories. This includes weekly SVN
0.21-fixes packages and will<br>include the next release of 'Mythtv' before it reaches the official<br>Ubuntu repositories.<br><br>Kind Regards,<br>Dave Walker<br></blockquote></div><br>Dave, <br><br>You've convinced me that Mythbuntu is decidedly different than KnoppMyth and MythDora.
