Installation issues / Re: Directv Usb/Serial

if mythtv supports this receiver, also LMCE should work with it. you only need to make it work with mythtv. if you read this http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Controlling_DirectTV_D11_via_USB, you'll be able to control it from LMCE.

the upgrade option is applying bug fixes but it can also apply support for other hardware. right now this function is not adding support for hardware.
regarding your issue with Zalman box, there is something which should make things to work. install pluto-irtrans-wrapper (which is a implementation of irtrans package). i never played with this but it should work. also read this page http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Zalman_HD160.

regarding your second question, you should give it a try. i don't see any reasons why sasc-ng not to work as long as it tries to interact first with the kernel especially, creating a virtual dvb device. then, this device will be recognized by mythtv as a dvb card.

According to producer of Sahara Slate PC i440D Tablet PC (http://www.tabletkiosk.com/tkstore/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=16&idproduct=205) you can install openSUSE Linux 10.2 without any patches
thsi is good. so, LMCE can be installed on it. i am waiting for some news about the process of installing a md on this kind of device.

depending on the hardware of that UMPC, i am not sure if a regular linux kernel will work on that without some patches.

if you are behind a router, you must forward the http port (80) to LMCE machine private ip.

Users / Re: Things that are safe to do and not to do? Like compiling a kernel?
« on: July 30, 2007, 08:53:49 am »Quote
I am just getting into LinuxMCE and am not quite sure what is safe and what isn't. I am wanting to run DVB for Myth, and wanting to run the latest Myth SVN. I am curious if it is a problem for me to recompile the kernel to remove DVB support and compile it via HG Driver Modules. And then to compile Myth itself and install it. Will this cause any problems for LinuxMCE on how it operates? I just didn't want to mess up any other modules it is reliant upon.
the bad news is that you can't install a newer version of mythtv because the mythtv package from LMCE is specially modified for that. i'm wondering why do you want to do that, especially if the svn version could have some issues. and also there is no need to remove dvb support from kernel just to install some other drivers. i'm saying that because dvb support in kernel is an API (like ALSA) to make the things working for dvb systems. i advise you not to try to remove dvb support, instead you have to patch the kernel with hg driver modules and then compile it. you should see at dvb section in kernel the wanted driver.

I have recompiled the kernel on my hybrid, the same version Kubuntu uses with a small patch. I haven't tested everything there is but so far I have only noticed that this will break adding new Media Directors. Which is easily fixed by copying vmlinuz-2.6.20-16-generic and initrd.img-2.6.20-16-generic from another MD into the "/usr/pluto/diskless/<device-number-of-MD>/boot/" directory (and changing the symlinks).
you should recompile a new kernel and then boot with it. then, run /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_InstallKernel.sh to install the current kernel into md image.
