Title: kubuntu 9.04
Post by: Dupie on April 23, 2009, 02:38:42 pm: Hallo,

I want to start with LinuxMCE and I'm afraid I have to reinstall my machine for it. Because (k)ubuntu 9.04 is due to come out shortly I wanna go for that one. I was wondering if somebody already tried LinuxMCE 0710 on a Kubuntu 9.04 RC.

Thanks,

I don't think anyone has tried 0710 with Kubuntu 904, as the installation guide http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Installation_Guide (http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Installation_Guide) specifically says that 0710 is only meant to be used with Kubuntu 0710.

I wouldn't expect it to work on Kubuntu 0904.

best regards,
sambuca

Btw, ubuntu/kubuntu/etc. is already released.

I have already upgraded my wife's machine.

Post by: JaseP on April 30, 2009, 07:04:46 pm: I am going to try building LinuxMCE on Kubuntu 9.04 from source... Any help from anyone who is experienced in building LinuxMCE from source is greatly appreciated. I need to use 9.04 because of the Intel video driver situation (Core and both MDs use various versions of the X3100 chipset).

If I manage to do it,... I may possibly try to build an Alpha DVD installation disk for it... However, my build may be hardware specific.

Hardware list;

Core: Dell 530 w/ 4GB RAM, 320 GB HD (4 partitions, /, Swap, /mnt/recovery/ and a small /home), Dual Core 7200, Intel X3100 vidoe chipset (embeded), 2 Haupauge HVR-1600 boards (only one in it right now until I figure out how to configure these damn things), & soon to have a Tricklestar 300ZW-US-W controller and an HDHomeRun.
MD #1: Dell Studio Hybrid attached to a widescreen Sanyo LCD TV
MD #2: Asus EEE Box B202 attached to another widescreen Sanyo LCD TV
Possible MDs: 2 Neuros OSD attached to older LCD TVs
Possible Orbiter: PepperPad 3 (if I can get it working again) &/or Aigo MID p8888w (if I buy one)
