I have a fresh install of MythBuntu 7.10. When I boot up, mythbackend can't find my HDHR tuners. If I do a "/etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart" from an SSH login, it comes up and finds the HDHR just fine and I can record, watch live TV, etc.. Is there some way to get myth to retry the connection automatically? I tried changing to static IP as I saw a message about the network not being available. That made the unavailable message go away, now it just doesn't find the HDHR. I also tried giving myth the device ID of the HDHR tuner instead of using FFFFFFFFFF, but it still doesn't work properly.
Any hints? Otherwise, Mythbuntu has been great to set up. I just did a pretty basic install and updated the packages using the software update tool. There were some updates to Myth in there. The updater says I'm up to date now.
It would be nice if the control panel application offered to setup the HDHR for lirc. I used the HDHR website and a thread I found on the forum here to set it up manually editing the config files. I don't mind doing that, but it would be nice to have the tool help out. Great config tool overall though, it really helped me remember all the setup steps to get things going.
