i was a little bummed to find out that you couldn’t just update between the mythbuntu alphas… i finally got around to tossing the 8.04 beta on my mythtv frontend and firewire input/capture WORKS! i also moved the pvr500 into the t105 and got that working. the only issue i’m having right now is figuring out how to get the primary backend and secondary backend to play nicely.

i also figured out how to get nxclient to work in mythbuntu. i never did figure out how to get xfce to start properly (it wouldn’t start in a window and it would render xfce over my current window manager) so i cheated and just installed ‘ubuntu-desktop’. not gnome, or gnome-desktop…. heh, yeah i’m slow.
