I have very limited experience with Ubuntu so I wouldn't be able to offer much in the way of solutions. Its been many years since I've played with mythtv, I gave up on it long ago for <a href="http://www.plexapp.com/" rel="nofollow">Plex</a> running on a mac mini. If I recall correctly you need to install the kernel sources (headers) then modify the imon vfd source file to point to the location of the kernel source files. Again I'm not sure how to go about that on ubuntu. Hope that helps. Unfortunately all my experience with setting this up was on red hat and fedora based systems.
