<br>
If you're looking for it to be a combo machine, I'd suggest that you
use a light weight desktop, such as LXDE, it comes along with KDE and
Gnome on both the 2010.0 and 2010.1 DVDs

<big><tt>I am not sure what those terms mean (dedicated backend and
combo front/back end). The Freeview aerial is plugged into the WinTV
USB stick and I was intending to simply watch TV on the same machine
using myth. I gather that I have to use the commands mythbackend and
mythfrontend to achieve that. When the system was working partially
there was a message that the backend was running when I invoked mythtv.<br>
