petreI just installed mythbuntu, but aptitude can't seem to find any packages, e.g., I search for unzip and it finds nothing.16:26
petre/etc/apt/sources.list *looks* the same as on my jaunty laptop.16:27
petreIs mythbuntu's repo config different than a stock ubuntu?16:27
petreBTW, I also went into synaptic and clicked on reload, but it still finds no packages16:28
petreok, never mind, it has started working now; not sure what changed.16:35
superm1petre, sources.list is the same as ubuntu16:36
superm1all mythbuntu packages are in the normal repos16:36
petresuperm1, that's what it appeared to be.  But for some reason, things like "aptitude search xchat" were coming back  empty handed.16:37
superm1probably a corrupt apt cache16:37
petreAnd then just a moment ago, it started working.16:37
petreOk, that sounds possible.16:37
petreI thought clicking on the reload button in synaptic would take care of that, but it didn't seem to.16:38
petreRegardless, it's working now.  (Machine probably saw me get on IRC on my laptop and figured it had better shape up ;-) )16:39

ZinnMythbuntu Control Centre, one of the biggest advantages of Mythbuntu.  You can configure a lot of normally complex tasks from one location.  You can find it in your System menu after installing Mythbuntu.17:21
