[mythtv-users] Mythtv compiling from source for Mint 15 Help Please!

[Bruce Herrington]

I'm a Linux newbie. I started with XBMC on a raspberry, got it working
somewhat, but decided I needed more power so moved to a Desktop. I have
mythbuntu running a HDHomeRun dual tuner  and I love it. I bought a Genpix
Skywalker 1 DVB-S  to add to the system and my life has been hell ever
since. I didn't want to ruin the mythbuntu setup I had so I got another
drive to experiment with. After hundreds of Installs, my OS 1st choice is
Mint 15 cinnamon, but haven't tried any other "mint's".  I have been told
after the OS is installed and updated,mythtv.0.26.0 source  downloaded and
extracted,  I need to follow the directions at:
https://bitbucket.org/updatelee/v4l-updatelee to modify the mythtv soucre
code to point the application to modified drivers verses kernel drivers.
 Updatelee is the author of the instuctions and I have been in contact with
him at http://dvbn.happysat.org/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=53310&start=60#p348265.
He doesn't use MythTv tho. Has anybody on this board got Skywalker 1
working under MythTV sats 110, 118,119, or 129? Is Mint 15 a good OS
choice? Any recomendations?
