MythTV 0.15.1 and Mandrake 10.0 Official : Step 0 - Roll back to Kernel 2.4
In the course of installing Mandrake 10.0 Official and MythTV 0.15.1 at the same time, I have kept running into problems getting IVTV to work for me. I was downright ignorant to have erased my working Mandrake 9.2 setup with MythTV 0.13 - I just wanted the goodies associated with being "up to speed" with Mandrake 10.0 Official.
After wrestling off-blog for some solutions, I have now decided that Mandrake 10.0 Official will probably work just fine - if I roll back to a 2.4 kernel. I saw that urpmi gives me the option for kernel-2.4.25.5-1-1mdk.i586. I installed that as well as its kernel source, and then installed the Kernel 2.4 version of the nVIDIA driver. So as of now, I have vision again in KDE 3.2.
