Re: [Mythbuntu-documentation] update documentation

[Thomas Mashos]

Greetings,

I think we are actually moving away from that sort of documentation. Perhaps
you could do a How-to on the Mythbuntu forums and then I can post it on the
Mythbuntu website. The forums are located at
http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=301

Thanks,

Thomas
