I am in the process of getting mythtv running on my Slackware 10.2 box
(which runs a 2.6.16 kernel). I had a look into Slackware howtos available
in the net for this purpose, but they all seem to be a bit outdated - for
Slackware 9.1.

I surmise that things will be similar under 10.2, but I
would be grateful if members of this forum who have got mythtv running
under 10.2 could share their experiences. The only glitch I have found so
far is that I can't compile lirc-0.8 with my 2.6 kernel - there is an
issue with the i2c component.
