Howdy,
Find a disc on the cover of "Linux Media Magazine" with MythTV binaries on it running a slightly older knoppmyth 0.17 Decide to see if knoppmyth is really all it's cracked up to be, only to find out that your backend isn't going to play nice with it. Stomp on the disc, curse knoppmyth, and smile 18 hours later when your Gentoo install finishes and 0.18 works as expected.
Curse KnoppMyth?! Perhaps this is why my body ached and I couldn't sleep last night. The MythTV versioning (non) issue is not a KnoppMyth issue. Any one capable of reading should be about to figure this out. In the 18 hours it took you to install Gentoo and MythTV, I could have installed KnoppMyth on 18 PCs. This includes downloading 0.18, producing a debs on one to be installed on others (with much time remaining to watch TV).
;) Cool
Yes, KnoppMyth is cool. If you want to use Gentoo, that is your option. I however would appreciate it if you didn't curse my efforts to make the Linux/MythTV install easy for those that have better things to do with thier time.
Regards,
Cecil
Uh, yeah. It took me under an hour to get KnoppMyth running, and watching TV. I've only ever tried to install Gentoo once, and after about 4 hours of futzing around with it, I still didn't have an installed system. And I'm not a Linux noob, I've been doing this for a long time. My first distro was Yggdrasil.
