(You probably don't want to run the updates yet, updated karmic doesn't start X automatically so you need a keyboard plugged in to run startx, and lucid doesn't boot at all yet)

With MythTV from the Mythbuntu daily builds

And EasyStroke, which you can find in the Ubuntu Software Center

To turn my Joggler into a cool touch screen MythTV frontend.

OK - getting myself all the S/W together - what did you end up using for gesture control?

Thanks for your patience....

@ejjutube I swear you have problems with reading the description...or just listening to what I say in the video. This question is answered in both.

Great post - exactly what the Joggler should do - can you do a 'How To' as I'm PC/Win literate but not Ubuntu/MythTV - hope to hear from you!!!

[Azelphur]

@ejjutube There are plenty of guides on how to set up MythTV. You need a backend computer which takes signals (Satellite, Cable, ...) and streams them over the network. Setting up MythTV is something I'm not going to write a guide for, as there are already plenty out there. As for installing the MythTV frontend on the joggler, there are instructions in the description of the video.
