    Mythtv and Debian Sarge

    Just to follow up, I downloaded the latest source of mythtv (0.19) and compiled it from scratch on my debian sarge system - it works great!

    Mythtv and Debian Sarge

    I just recently managed to get mythtv to work on a straight up install of debian sarge kernel 2.6 by adding the following to my /etc/apt/sources.list: deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ sarge main and then do "apt-get update" and "apt-cache search myth" to see what myth related packages you can install. You'll need to install a lot of dependent packages but if you select "Desktop" and "Development" environment during the initial install you'll have most of it. I pieced my install together based on info from various (some out of date!) sites such as: http://dipper.info/project/ivtv/ www-isl.mach.uni-karlsruhe.de/~hi93/myth/mythtv_debian_epia_pvr350_walkthrough http://www.quietearth.us/mythtv.htm It all worked nicely with the installed binaries but I did have to compile ivtv drivers and a few other packages from source. I've been meaning to write a similar sort of install trail for debian sarge on my hardware (stock Dell Dimension PIII & PVR-350) but haven't found the time... I'm also not finished yet, I'm trying to get MythGame to work, I need to setup an IR-blaster to control my satellite box and I want to add a joystick. In addition, I want to see if I can stream live TV or movies with/without mythtv (I've been looking at vlc (http://www.videolan.org)) but so far it only barely works - something needs to be tuned or adjusted somewhere. Hope this helps!
