Pioneering is the business of finding new and unexpected ways of dying
(Adam Hall: The Ninth Directive) (But that could be Chuck Yeager's
motto too!
Installing software is the business of finding new and unexpected errors....
I hunted down and killed the eeprom/tveeprom which-one-first error.
Now I cannot connect to the mysql database.
Mysqld is running. I can connect from the command line. By mythtv-setup
cannot find the qsqlmysql driver.
Worse yet, under Mandriva, urpmi tells me that everything I can think of
is installed already (and urpmi won't let you re-install in place (so to
speak).
This is the error:
mythtv at mythbox setup]$ ./mythtv-setup
2005-09-23 20:21:19.296 Using runtime prefix = /usr
QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL3 driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers:

2005-09-23 20:21:19.396 No error type from QSqlError? Strange...
And that continues for some lines.
I found the libqsqlmysql.so file. I even copied it from
/usr/lib/qt3/plugins/sqldrivers to /usr/lib/qt3/plugins/lib/sqldrivers.
And into /usr/lib/qt3/lib/sqldrivers
.And into usr/lib/local where all the lirc stuff lives.
And I updated ld.so.conf and ran ldconfig.
No joy....Much frustration at the moment. I have 4 (or 5) copies of the
lib scattered around but libqt3 cannot seem to find any.
Help!!!
