How deep does the rabbit hole go?

If you have a talent, use it in every which way possible. Don't hoard it. Don't dole it out like a miser. Spend it lavishly like a millionaire intent on going broke. -- Brendan Francis

MythTV Update

mitch @ 7:22 pm on November 10, 2005

It may not be to interesting for others to read, but I really don’t feel like blogging about anything else. My mythtv box is comming along… the gentoo install is taking a while. I started from stage 2, and have optimized for the athlon processor, along the optimization -03 for speed with GCC. So, the compile time is taking a while. However, I think my kvm switchbox at work has stalled my progress on a couple times because of the scroll lock key. When hitting scroll lock on the key board it seems to halt the compile process. So, I probably had it sitting and doing nothing for the last day… I finished the move to stage 3 today, and I left it compiling my kernel (for the sake of time at work, I simply did a genkernel and made sure it had everything I needed as either modules or compiled in. I don’t much care if it takes it all night to compile). So, it should hopefully be done by the time I get back to work tomarrow. So I can start it on compiling everything for myth over the weekend. I got the video card today, so i’ll be taking that in tomarrow to be looked at. Should be fun.
