Post subject: | any way to get myth 0.26 in Linhes 7.4? |
I usually build MythTV on Gentoo, however I had my backend die on me and figured I just wanted it to work so I grabbed the latest stable release and installed. All that went fine, except my frontend was 0.26. So I backed that down, got everything configured and it's all running fine. However 0.26 fixes a few bugs that are pretty annoying for me so I was hoping there was some way to get 0.26 in LinHES 7.4? I read references to using a testing repo, I tried adding: Server = http://linhes.org/repo/i686/core-testing Server = http://linhes.org/repo/i686/extra-testing But that didn't seem to make any difference.. Perhaps I just didn't use the correct pacman command line? I'm not sure if this is relevant but when I login I'm getting Couldn't connect to MythTV service for status Exception AttributeError: "'MythBE' object has no attribute 'hostname'" in ignored It used to display information about Myth, recordings, etc.. Maybe that's a hint? Perhaps I messed up something.... Thanks for any tips/links/suggestions..etc.. |

Best thing would be to upgrade R8 it is based on myth 25 + fixes. As far as I know Linhes is going to skip Myth 26 since it has some nasty bugs so the next release will be based on myth 27 when it arrives... |

Weird, I ran 0.26 since it was released and never had any problems with it (my BE crash was hardware related). Must be problems with hardware I dont' use I'd guess. I'll wait until the next official release of LinHes. Might see about fixing the bugs that bug me in 0.25 they're all frontend related anyway.. Thanks. |

Another option might be Linhes R8 with XBMC for frontend. That might allow you to escape so of those issues... |

Please make sure to use R8 Linhes with XBMC. Then run Pacman -Syu to update to to R8.02 this ... will fix the lirc XBMC bug so your remote will work perfect with XBMC Here is the migration documentation http://www.linhes.org/projects/linhes/wiki/Upgrading_LinHES_R7X_to_R8 Any questions fell free to ask Enjoy |
