Nice to see another sarge / myth user. :) Have a look at http://dijkstra.csh.rit.edu/~mdz/debian/dists/unstable/mythtv/ . These packages are nicely done, though you may need to build some from source to get them to install on sarge due to some dependencies on unstable. They'll take care of creating a mythtv user for you and starting up mythbackend at boot as that user, etc. Then you just need to setup mythfrontend running as mythtv and you should be mostly done. I'm sorry I don't have any experience controlling an external tuner / box, but I'm sure someone on the list is familiar with the problems you're seeing. HTH! _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
