I am installing a MythTV front-end / back-end combination. I figured that it would be an ordeal, so I decided to blog the process. It is currently working, but in a duct-tape-and-band-aids sort of way.
Overdue...
The video card in my front-end died, so I had to steal the video card from the back end, which defaulted it to the on-board ATI video. Since I wasn't using the front-end part of my back-end machine, this wasn't too big of a deal. The problem is that this shuffled IRQs around and stuff. Now, I can't things to work right 1/2 the time.
If you remember (I'm personifying the ZERO readers that are reading this), I already didn't have stuff working on boot, so I run a couple of scripts to get stuff to work. Well, that has really stopped working completely (and gotten really OLD).
So, sometime really soon, I am going to reinstall my backend machine and switch from SuSE 9.1 to Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake). There are so many changes in the OS support for things, I hope this works out well.
Now, I need to find info on HD3000 and PVR500s in Dapper...
