You can post it here (or in -users) for comments or just create a new
ticket and attach the text to the ticket (
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/wiki/TicketHowTo ) along with a description
of where it should appear in the HOWTO. Please try to keep it as
generic as possible or at least make comments when behavior is
distribution-specific and specify which distro you're describing.
Oh, and, please make sure you address where the core file ends up, too. :)
Thanks,
Mike
