| Post subject: | Remote Frontend on Arch Linux |
Quick plug for Arch Linux - Kubuntu kept locking up my laptop, goodbye Ubuntu, hello Arch! Should have done it earlier. 30 second boot times and 15 second shutdowns, yeah baby. I just had to get a mythtv remote frontend on my shiny new Arch distro! I am not too familiar with what is contained in the Arch packages, so this is what I installed first. Some are installed by default. qt, pyqt, dbus-qt3, gcc3, freetype2, libxft, xorg-server, lame I needed to do some changes on my particular case to get mythtv to see the qt3 information. You may not have to do this. cp /opt/qt/mkspecs/linux-g++ /opt/qt/mkspecs/default ln -s /opt/qt /usr/share/qt3 cd /home/yourusername/svn/mythtv make clean ./configure ( didn't use any options, I dont have nvidia card so dont use xvmc) qmake mythtv.pro make (it took about 45 minutes on my laptop) make install edit /etc/ld.so.conf and add /usr/local/lib, save then run ldconfig -v cd /usr/local/bin ./mythfrontend (it will try to connect to the local db, in my case it wont/doesnt find one) edit /home/yourusername/.mythtv/mysql.txt and change the db information now run mythfrontend again. |
