for the tv cards. You need to supply manually the correct firmware
and driver(options cardnumber, tuner, ...). Wouldn't be nicer
everything is in place when you installed the driver, or the driver
configured itself with the best default options so the card works at
least.
I think I spend more than 40 hours to get everything working the way
I want it. Especially on the frontend where the remote control comes
in place. I think all the configuration can be done a lot faster if
there is an optimal configuration by default.

Maybe you should try Mythbunu.

<pre wrap="">For me that's not an option because the backend runs on my home server.
This server is used and configured for several other tasks and has enough
storage and power to record tv. The frontend box is wireless connected to
the server and has no room for tv cards (small case). I tried to reinstall
my server with xen, but there where problems with loading the drivers for
my tv card in the virtual box (kernel crashed). Loading drivers for my
raid card was no problem in the vitual enviroment. So i returned back to
the old way, 1 real debian etch installation for everything.
