Sounds great. One of the problems tied to all distros.
(namely I am NOT pointing fingers) is how programs in
the distro. lag behind the current releases. The
current KnoppMyth release is R5D1 which comes with
MythTV 0.19 (one release back from the latest version
of MythTV).

I gather there is NO cable TV in Linuxcaffe (yes I did
ask). The classic we are MOST unlikely to find the
perfect space. So with Linuxcaffe on the good we have
an owner happy to see us, fairly central location,
power, Internet and free. On the bad, the amount of
space in Linuxcaffe is limited, and no cable TV. While
not out of the question, on balance it is unlikely we
will find a better location than Linuxcaffe.

Now I am tentatively planning to bring my KnoppMyth
based MythTV box to show off (though granted as a
MythTV box it isn't anything special to write home
about).
