Hi,

Anyone using MythTv with Sky Digital? I just took delivery of the 
components for the MythTV box I am builing.

Core 2 Duo E4300 1.8GHz S775
ANTEC Fusion Media centre
HAUPPAUGE Win TV PVR 150
MSI S775 Intel 945GZ MATX A L
CORSAIR 1GB PC5300 CL4
NEC 18x DVD±RW DL IDE Silver 
GIGABYTE Radeon X1300 128MB PCIE DVI (with HDMI out dongle)
500 GB Maxtor SATA2 drive.

I gave NTL analouge and Sky Digital. I was going to connect Sky with a 
composite cable and NTL with Coax. Don't know if the WinTV150 will allow 
that. Also want to get the VFD for the case working in linux but I have 
seen there is drivers for that. I installed FC5 last night on it (I had 
DVD to hand) to test hardware. What distribution would you guys recommend? 
I have never installed myth before. I use Ubuntu and FC6 at home. I would 
like a full OS as opposed to a knoppmyth install. Can you foresee any 
other gotchas?
