Users / Does everything work for you?
« on: March 26, 2007, 12:38:19 am »
I am curious to see peoples level of sucsess. 

I installed LinuxMCE with high hopes and the more I screw with it, the more I get let down.

MythTV throws errors

The GUI was a horiffic pain to just get to the point were I could see something.

I don't need home automation so I have ugly blank spots in my UI1 screen.

I am reinstalling but I have been getting "failed to DL index files" then the installer stops.

It's proving to be a real headache that may not be more then a Alpha release.

I hope the next time I install it tonight it goes better.

I see this at teh top when I go to any MythTV settings.

I do NOT have a tuner card installed yet.  Is this related?

Users / Yeah this is totally easy....wait, what?

Not to be a negative Nellie but wasnt this supposed to be terribly easy.  I feel like I am fighting this install every step of the way.  WinMCE is a matter of installing the OS and pressing the appilcation to start it.  Then you are done.

This is a matter of installing the OS, then running the installer, watching a lot of things fail or not work, booting to a black screen, finding the admin url and  wading through the thousands fo menus to find "change resolution", tweaking to find right resolution for LCD monitor.....

and so on.

This looks fantastic and I want it to work due to the massive list of features, but it hardly seems "easy".
