[00:47] no ask away [00:47] now* [00:48] Question, I have tried 2 different ways to get mythtv working, ubuntu package, and mythbuntu live cd [00:49] should this be working right away or does the live cd take some configuration still? [00:49] holyscott, mythbuntu live cd cant be used as a frontend [00:49] or to install mythtv [00:49] it wont replace a mythbackend [00:50] all I want to see is it running before I commit to a total reinstall [00:50] my card is on the list so it should be supported [00:50] so what running [00:50] just fairly new to linux and no clue about sql stuff. [00:50] you need to install mythtv for it to work [00:50] holyscott, right the mythbuntu live cd is a great place to start [00:50] you install it [00:50] its a pinnacle 800i hd pci [00:51] run it and configure hard ware and your on your way [00:51] i have that card [00:51] its good for digital [00:51] any mthtv program, seetup, backend I run, all gives errors abotu sql database not connected [00:52] on what install are you talking about [00:52] last night I tried on linux mint kde rc1 dling the mint tv package [00:52] the dl told me to set up a root password [00:52] but nothing worked afterwards [00:53] today, I tryed setting it up while on the live cd [00:53] on the live cd I did see the configuration menu options [00:53] but nothing when it went to setup mythtv. [00:54] the card quit working in windows 7 and would be shocked to have it in linux [00:55] holyscott, first to use and have a much easier setup take the live cd [00:55] install mythbuntu [00:55] reboot machine [00:55] run the newly installed mythbuntu os [00:55] update [00:55] then run mythbackend setup [00:56] has to be installed, wont work running off a cd? [00:56] better to be usiing 8.10 or 9.04 alpa 6 or wait a few days for new beta 9.04? [00:57] holyscott, yes you need to install it the backend to my knowledge needs to be installed [00:57] the live cd can only be used as a frontend [00:57] ok [00:57] or to install [00:57] i would recommend 8.10 [00:58] you want something stable [00:58] alpha is for testing and bug fixes [00:58] would I have to do anything with mysql or roots or passwords, or just the setup program? [01:00] when installing from live cd that is taken care for you [01:00] awesome [01:00] once I have it installed and running, it is safe to install kde or gnome over it? [01:02] uh i wouldnt because its meant to just work along [01:02] unless you are going to be running a frontend somewhere else [01:02] i mean yeah you could just depends on how strong your system is if it will handle it well [01:02] normal workload with mysql and mythbackend [01:02] I have a modern gaming pc [01:02] 4 gigs [01:02] ah alright [01:02] cpu [01:03] ? [01:03] 3gig core2du [01:03] 8800gt [01:06] thanks so much for the help [01:13] yup [01:13] so yeah do that i will most likely be here i have no issue helping you set it up [01:13] i really like mythtv [01:25] does it use alot of cpu while recording or runniing? [01:32] Depends what you're doing [01:33] what is your system? === ramirand_ is now known as RussM_ [04:56] If I have multiple capture cards for Digital and Analog, does myth automaticall switch between them when I press the channel up button, or do I have to tell it?
