So if you can get it working on my machine, I'll pay you. Seriously.
The only other thing I ask is that it's documented exactly so that I
can do it myself afterwards.
I'm not even kidding. I'll give you a login (there's absolutely
nothing on my box besides Knoppmyth right now) and you can just have
at it.
The day you deliver the info, I plan on wiping the HD clean,
reinstalling Knoppmyth and running your directions. Just email me
when you're done with the instructions on how to get it to work from a
clean install and if I can get it to work with your instructions, I'll
drop $50 into your PayPal account.
Oh behalf of my girlfriend, my other geek friends and my co-workers --
who are ALL sick of hearing me talk about how I *think I might be
close this time!* -- please. And thank you.
Please send me a message with questions or if you want to try to
tackle it.
Jeff
My setup:
Knoppmyth (latest stable)
Serial IR blaster (from irblaster.info <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://irblaster.info"><http://irblaster.info></a>) on COM1
Motorola DCT700 input via coax to a PVR-150 (no blaster/receiver
dongle for PVR-150)

<pre wrap=""><!---->Hi Jeff,
I literally got mine working last night after months of on-off trying -
the secret? I've just upgraded from kubuntu 7.10 to 8.04 and all the
support for it is built in, I just had to remove an old package that was
screwing things up (sudo apt-get --purge remove dkms).
I now have myth changing channels on my Sky box and am able to schedule
recordings just as I can on the Freeview DVB-T cards.
Regards,
Dave.

Something that might help, even if you don't change from knoppix to
ubuntu, as knoppix is a debian derived distro, is this web page:<br>
