I've had a mythbuntu box up and running in about 40 minutes, from a blank hard drive. It took some time to make everything pretty so I wasn't going to touch it again, but at least it was up and running (though to be fair, it was a frontend/secondary backend, and it took me a couple of days to get my first master-backend running the way I wanted :-)

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----<br>Hash: SHA1<br><br>Fred,<br><br>As far as upgrading Mythdora they've said there will be an F8 version<br>"when it's ready". No timeline whatsoever. Well, there's somewhat of
<br>a timeline - it'll come out when mythtv 0.21 is ready.<br><br>So I installed a mythdora box last night. I have a PVR-500 and an<br>NVIDIA card. It took me about 2 hours post installation to figure out<br>all the bizarre behavior and get it to display live tv (and
<br>record/pause it) and display video via SVIDEO to my Tv. I'm not 100%<br>sure but I think 2 hours is probably on the low to medium end of<br>things. The only thing that isn't working is the Hauppauge remote,<br>
but that could be because I picked the wrong one in the setup screen.<br>(There are 3 or 4 Hauppage black/grey remote settings) So far I'm<br>pretty happy with it although I'm sure I still have some more kinks to
<br>iron out.<br><br>Hope that helps!<br><br>- --<br>Eric Mesa<br><a href="mailto:ericsbinaryworld@gmail.com">ericsbinaryworld@gmail.com</a><br><a href="http://www.ericsbinaryworld.com" target="_blank">http://www.ericsbinaryworld.com
