(aside from the DVD issue I'm having that I mentioned elsewhere.)<br>

<font color="#888888"></font></blockquote></div><br>Thanks. I understand there difference in the package versions, what I
don't understand is how to get the repositories set so that all the
package versions I need are available. I enabled the multimedia
repository, and otherwise, I'm running with whatever repositories are set by
default. <br>
<br>
On my system, it seems that a mix of .20.2 packages, and .21 are
present. Of the .21 packages, some are .21-04etch, .21-05etch and
.21-06etch. Specifically, I was able to intsall myth-common .21-06etch, and all associated packages, but the only frontend available is mythtv-frontend .21-05etch (I'm paraphrasing the names of the packages, but I think I'm pretty close). So I've got all the parts I need in place, except for the means to access it. <br>
<br>Someone else advised me (off list) to install the all encompassing mythtv metapackage, and he said that worked for him; he just had to turn off the backend use it as a frontend only. I tried the same, just to humor him, but of course it fails when it tries to install the frontned (since the "mythtv" package is just a metapackage made up of the individual packages). <br>
<br>So Dale; could you be so kind as to post your repositoriy list for me to compare with mine? <br>
