With arch Linux you avoid spending hours or days fixing issues. I like avoiding having to reinstall my os. I run xen on arch and pbx an other mythtv. So far biggest changes was switching to systemd from init but init was still supported.<br>
Arch gives you the ability to limit your down time<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jan 6, 2013 at 8:29 AM, Andréas Kühne <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:andreas@kuhne.se" target="_blank">andreas@kuhne.se</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I really don't see what the issue is. Because I am using sasc-ng (for using 3 cards in the same machine) I even had to recompile my kernel manually. All in all it took about a day, and now I am running the latest version of mythbuntu and mythtv. I'll be using this system for at least 1 1/2 years now, so I really don't see what the problem is. 1 day of work for about 2 years of bliss ;-)</div>
