Hi, folks.
My current vdr is instaled over "normal" ubuntu desktop since forever. Now I want to try something similar starting with ubuntu server and reducing installed packages to the minimum.
I found a similar ideia at this link: http://kuparinen.org/martti/comp/vdr/vdr.html
Now for the questions:
- Anyone with similar approach? - What is the minimum xorg needed? - Recommended settings?
The ideia is to have a lightweight system installed on a usb pen (almost all files are read only, so no problem) and add one or more HDD drives to perform the recording. Those drivers will only work when a recording is scheduled. Thus reducing noise to the minimum. Currently I have almost no dB coming from my vdr box, except for the disks.
I need to take in account other applications xorg needs. Like xine, mplyer, whatever.
I really want to end up with a minimal/no noise fully working system.
Thanks.
