| holstein | cheers | 17:56 |
| hank__ | trying to get TV tuner to work. Already rebuilt whole media. Keep working on it | 17:57 |
| holstein | yup.. if they (they = the creators of the hardware) dont support linux, it can be challenging | 17:58 |
| holstein | you can go upstream for support, to #ubuntu or one of the communities that use capture cards like that | 17:58 |
| holstein | !mythbuntu | 17:58 |
| ubottu | Mythbuntu is an Ubuntu derivative centered upon setting up a standalone MythTV system. See: http://www.mythbuntu.org for more information and #ubuntu-mythtv | 17:58 |
| holstein | you can look for, and purchase hardware with linux support in mind | 17:59 |
| holstein | otherwise, i say, grab different live iso's and see how things are supported. note kernel versions and drivers.. | 17:59 |
| hank__ | have Happhaghue dongle supposed to work, wiki has bunch mumbo-jumbo. I'll get it . Gotta compile, arggggg. gotta go I'm joined. cheers | 17:59 |
| holstein | "supposed to" is the issue | 18:00 |
| holstein | if "they" dont promise linux support.. just keep in mind, nothing about linux/ubuntu is preventing it from working | 18:00 |
| holstein | we *want* it to work for you :) | 18:00 |
| hank__ | uh-huh! Their site has some linux help. the 'ol wiki. I'll get it. Later | 18:01 |
| holstein | hank__: sure. let them know if its not working for you | 18:01 |
| holstein | if "some linux help" on the "ol wiki" ='d "official linux support for that particular device, hank would be in business :) | 18:02 |
