Hi all;<br><br>I'm going to attend this upcoming installfest and have a problem I need help with. I want to install LinuxMCE on a quadcore machine I have. It's a elitegroup P965T-a board with a Q6600 proc, 2 gb ddr2800. I have a 250gb SATA for it.<br>
<br>I have these DVR cards I got off ebay, the 4 for $35 or something like that. Problem is that they claim to come with drivers, but really don't. There's a mini disc allegedly having Windows drivers on it, but I'd not gotten them to work, and I'm an MCSE...from 10 ears ago....but still. <br>
<br>I don't know Linux all that well, as I'm a Project Manager now, not a techie. I got the following info from the seller, claiming that this patch against kernel will work. <a href="http://www.ap-accessgrid.org/linux/ivc.html">www.ap-accessgrid.org/linux/ivc.html</a><br>
<br>I don't know how to patch a kernel. I don't know how to install a bttv module. <br><br>I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me on this, please? I want to learn, more than anything else. <br><br>
I'm also reading that LinuxMCE won't work in a virtual environment. I have two of those pc's and I want to find a way to make one run virtually. I'm not opposed to dedicating a box to Linux MCE, but if I could run VM's on top of LinuxMCE so I could run some other VM's on the same boxes, it's be a great use of the hardware, is my thought. Just trying to make the most of the boxes, of course!<br>
<br>So, if anyone is interested, this is the project I'll be bringing Saturday. <br><br>Thanks in advance!<br><br>Michael<br><br><br>
