Cant Find Blue on setup
Hi

I am a linux newbie (the reason I installed linux was to try mythtv!)

I am trying to follow the installation instruction but when I come to do the
first setup I get the error

Couldn't find theme : Blue

I have read another post regarding this but it mentioned issues with QT on
redhat I am using Mandrake 9.1.

I have checked and the Blue theme is there I also tried moving it to
/usr/local/share/mythtv but that also didn't work.



Any clues as to how I can proceed as I said the reason I installed mandrake
was to try mythtv so without it it seems pointless.



I noticed there are rpms made for mandrake but not sure where they install
to and what order I should install them, also it appears that a lot of them
don show up in the mandrake rpm gui?



Any help greatly appreciated as I am just sitting here eager to try it



Thanks



Lewis



p.s. As I said linux newbie so simple step by step solutions pls :-)

I believe when I built myth recently, I saw an error in the themes
directory. It was trying to strip the themes in the Makefile. I
commented those lines out and it installed without a problem after that.
