I swapped the cables and restarted the install from scratch

that fixed those issues and, honestly, its probably better to have eth0 facing out to the net as this emchien will eventually be moving to router/firewall position and my eth0 is my gig ether port.

Right now Im trying to sweet talk it into running the AV wizard in Nvidia clone mode so I can see the setup and admin later on my monitor at the machine rather then the projector in the next room.

Im having fun with it.  Thanks for the pointers where needed.

That fixed that
Im trying a re-run of the mce-install script.  We'll see how smart it is about cleaning up.
If I dont get a valid install at the end then ill try ocne mreo from the Kubuntu install...

Make sure that eth0 is connected to your external internet source since nobody has still updated the installer.

ah thank you.  Thats likely the problem.

Apparently the alpha installer doesnt like my netowrking setup, though Im not entirely sure why.
At that point in the install script it stopped being able to see the internet, and now its hosed
in a semi-installed state.

ATM I have a router that is connected to the internet and a USB ether port that is connected
to the router.  The other port  on the box is xonected to a private net with just the MCE box
and my HomeRunHD attached to it.

I cant imagine why the router would be a problem as its serving DHCP to the MCE box on that
port and aught not to look terribly different then beign connected directly to the ISP.  
I dont want to tkae the router out of the loop until I have the MCE box up and running ebcause
my wife depends on that for her internt connection and I dont want my MCE experiments to
impact her.

This is indeed a great direction.  In the current release Myth feels "tacked on."
I look at the DVR demo videos with envy.  Id love to have that sort of integrated inetrface
for us poor US users.

Alright that seems to have been the problem.  The install is workign now that I reinstaled and rejected the jaunty upgrade.

I am trying to install based on the instructions here: http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/LinuxMCE-0810_alpha2 and the scripts are failing to find needed packages.

The instructions say to let Kubuntu update.  I let it update to Kubuntu 9.x.  Is this wrong?

After watching a video and doing some experimenting, it seems like the control part of LinuxMCE/MythTV is locking
up and not responding ti the air mouse.

Is there a setup guide somewher that might help me find what is wrong?

Im using an HDHomeRun as my only capture device if that has any bearing

Hi,

I bought an Air Mouse GO for my LnixMCE box with the assumption that I woudlo be able to control evreything with it, including my MythTV.  But I cant figure out how to control that with the mouse nor can I find anything googling.

A pointer to some instrutions would be very helpful.  Thanks
