I tried various things with no success, but eventually did a fresh install, which immediately brought my DVD drive back. I've now installed Ubuntu 14.04.2 from ISO but am wondering if I will get issues with mythtv 0.28?
eg When installing the mesa-vdpau-drivers which I thought I need for 
mythtv, I now get unmet dependencies (re. libcheese and libclutter).
Am I going to have problems? Do I still need these mesa-vdpau-drivers drivers?
I also got the same dependency issues with things I previously installed to get the proprietary AMD drivers working.
I can give try mythtv 0.28 but am wondering if anyone has any advice on mythtv 0.28 with Ubuntu 14.04.2 - if there 
are any known issues, and/or if I should stick with older versions? (though could I even go back to 0.27 if my database schema is now 0.28)??
Thanks.
