I've been using MythBuntu for some time and I really appreciate all the effort into making an "out of the box" distribution for running MythTV.<br><br>My new FE/BE is running MythBuntu 10.04 and I have another machine already running "normal" Lucid 10.04 that I'd like to use as a slave backend (and perhaps occasionally run a FE on).<br>
<br>I'm wondering what complications will come in this setup. Is it OK to mix the version of MythTV that comes with Lucid with the one that comes with MythBuntu? I would guess (although I'm not sure how I would verify this) that MythBuntu just uses the "upstream" version of MythTV from Lucid with a bunch of additional utilities and niceties thrown in but it seems possible that perhaps they are completely different builds (hence the potential problem).<br>
<br>I suppose the main concern is simply that the DB schema might change between the two versions and this seems like it could create serious problems. Am I worrying about nothing here?<br><br>Finally, if I install the mythtv tools on a normal Lucid machine, is there a way to prevent any configuration that auto logs me in and runs the FE, etc? I know I could probably easily undo these kinds of things (which would be really nice for a real FE) but I'm just wondering if there is a simple way to side step it.<br>
<br>Thanks for any help.<br><br>--<br>Mike<br><br>
