Stuff I found useful while upgrading my MythTV DVR from Fedora 12-based 0.22 to Mythbuntu 12.04.01-based 0.25, and replacing the external USB tuner with an HVR-2250:

My copy has a sha1sum of 6d23a53acb339a0cc229312306c05d03c0770f9a and a sha256sum of f45544c1d276731c09b483d152d0ba682a890ce77e462bf438f309a986953f82.
• Very beneficial notes about setting up a dual tuner, worked for me.
• xfce4-volumed intercepts XF86AudioLowerVolume, etc.; these notes explain how to turn it off.
• list of stations
• http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Mythfrontend has information about configuring mysql for remote frontend access.
