Install MythTV
A backend will need to have mysql-server installed as well as mythtv-backend. Mythtv-backend doesn't depend on mysql-server since the mysql server can be located elsewhere on your network. Also, if this is a secondary backend, don't install mythtv-database or mysql-server. Just configure this backend to connect to the master backend instead.
- Install the mythtv software.
sudo apt-get install mythtv-frontend gdm ubuntu-artwork xterm openbox gnome-screensaver xserver-xorg gsfonts-x11 xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi msttcorefonts xfonts-base mysql-server mythtv-backend mythtv-database usplash-theme-ubuntu
- Behind the scenes, a mythtv user will be created in PAM as well as mysql. The database will be installed into mysql and the initial configuration performed.
- You may be asked to configure postfix. Choose the "no configuration" option to skip this, as you won't need postfix for this machine.
- You will be asked for the password to the root account of mysql. By default, there is no password.
- If you have a proprietary graphics card driver that you installed earlier, you will need to complete the installation for it right now.
- Nvidia: sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
- ATI: sudo aticonfig --initial
2. Now, we will create a session for the automatic mythtv login. Create the file /usr/share/xsessions/mythtv.desktop
. Place these contents into that file:
[Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=MythTV Comment=Use this session to run MythTV Exec=/usr/local/bin/mythtv.sh Icon= Type=Application
3. Create a script, /usr/local/bin/mythtv.sh that will be spawned when you login to your MythTV session. Place these contents into that file:
gnome-screensaver mythfrontend& exec openbox
- If you are running lirc and using irexec for any of your key detection, you probably also want to add this section. It will be sure that if X is ever restarted, irexec doesn't spawn multiple instances
killall irexec irexec -d
- If you are running an nvidia graphics card, you should add:
nvidia-settings -l
- If you are planning on running the myth transcoding daemon for ripping dvds, you will want to add:
mtd -d
- If you come up with anything else for your custom startup script,
/usr/local/bin/mythtv.sh
will be the place to add it.
3. Be sure to set /usr/local/bin/mythtv.sh
to be executable.
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/mythtv.sh
4. Start gdm.
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
1> At the bottom left, choose Options. Pick "Select Session". | |
1> When Given a list of sessions, choose Openbox. | |
1> Login as the user created at installation, NOT mythtv . The mythtv user is only used for the backend process. |
|
1> You will be given an option to make this default. Choose "Just For This Session". |
5. Right click the desktop and choose the terminal.
1> Right click the desktop and choose "Terminal Emulator". |
6. Run gdmsetup.
sudo gdmsetup
1> Gdmsetup is used to configure an automatic login for your main user name (in this case superm1 ) as well as a time delayed login if you logout. This will make the bootup a lot more streamlined (especially for HTPC use) |

1> Right click the desktop and choose "Exit". |
13. Set the newly created MythTV session to be the default. This will make sure that on the next reboot, MythTV comes up by default.
1> At the bottom left, choose Options. Pick "Select Session". | |
1> When Given a list of sessions, choose MythTV. | |
1> Login as the user created at installation, NOT mythtv . |
|
1> You will be given an option to make this default. Choose "Make Default". |
- Note: at least one user had difficulties logging out of the openbox session to return to the login screen. If you encounter similar issues, you should try to first restart GDM.
- Switch to virtual terminal 1 (CTRL-ALT-F1)
- Login
- Restart GDM
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
- If restarting GDM didn't work, reboot your machine to see if GDM comes up after the fresh boot.
