Well, I recently upgraded my box & am still not finished tweaking it, so
I've been rebooting a bit lately. Before that, though, I hadn't
rebooted in months. I only ever restarted mythbackend when I upgraded
to latest CVS (used to be weekly, though now it's more like monthly --
I just don't have the time!).
My old config:
RH8
Athlon XP 1600+
Asus A7A266 mobo
WinTV-radio (401) w/btaudio
Leadtek GeForce4 MX 420 AGP
IRman receiver
RS-2103 5-in-1 remote
Gyration RF keyboard & mouse
DLink wlan card
256MB SDRAM
My new config seems very stable (I haven't had any ivtv driver problems,
haven't even had to reload the driver). Same box, but I pulled the
WinTV card and installed:
Fedora Core 1 (using Jarod's guide)
2 AverMedia M-179s
(now using XvMC for playback)
Again, I haven't had to reboot or restart mythbackend (except for kernel
upgrades, hardware swaps, Myth upgrades).
