Yesterday I gave a small workshop on how to use a Linux machine as a digital multimedia center. As the intended audience was not the Linux-savvy geeks, I chose to use KnoppMyth and built myself a machine with MythTV 0.19-fixes on some very nice hardware, thanks to Kris: a total of 300 GB harddisk space and a Hauppauge PVR-500.
Anyway, if you want to read more about it, I’ve put my presentation online. You can download it here.
