Couple of things I thought others might find useful on this topic, given ybot has been so helpful, finally got mythbackend and mythtv-setup running.

To get the i2c-core.ko module to work, you will need to follow this post
http://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?p=194182#p202235Once all the moudles are compiled, I ran
- Code: Select all
make install
which makes it easier to load the correct modules in the right order using modprobe as per the link to a post below
I have a Hauppage Win Nova-t usb stick, I follow the folloing post to get the correct modules to load and load the firmware.

edit sshd_config file in /etc/ssh enable X11forwarding twice in the file
- Code: Select all
X11Forwarding yes
restart the ssh daemon through the Qnap web admin interface to enable these changes
I'm on windows vista, I installed Xming (an X server for Windows):
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xming/Edit the X0.hosts file (C:/program files/Xming) and add the ip address of your mythbackend (QNAP) machine
With XLaunch: open an X window, leave all options as-is with the display set at 0
log in to your Qnap box on your windows cliënt with Putty - after enabling X11 forwarding to your windows client in your putty session. (Connection > SSH > X11 > enable X11 forwarding + X display location = localhost:0)
in the Putty CLI you need to export the ip address of your windows machine
- Code: Select all
export DISPLAY=win-vista-ip:0.0
mythtv-setup
You should now see the mythtv-setup page.
