majoridiotfor shows you lose info from by dropping the db, etc... if you use mythvideo, you can access them through the frontend and it will use the internal mythtv player to play them back.  same for avis, etc.12:26
majoridiotbut the files need to be local to that frontend or on a networked drive, as stipulated above.12:27
majoridiot(works quite well, actually)12:27
williammandamyth uses xine right?12:28
majoridiotit can.  i use mplayer, actually.12:28

williammandaback01:44
tgm4883williammanda, is there some way to check to see if the mepis cd burned properly.  I usually check with k3b, but when it tried to check it it couldn't access the drive for some reason.  Is there a way to either md5 the cd or have the cd check itself similar to the ubuntu cd?01:47
williammandai thought it brought up the md5 when burning02:08
tgm4883yea it does before it burns, but to check the integrity of the burn it has to make sure the cd burned right, which for some reason it couldn't do02:12

superm1i saw a note this morning about rogue78011:06
superm1any mentions where these usplash'es were?11:06
majoridiotno... just that they were ready and he was looking for you11:07
superm1ah11:08
=== superm1 needs to learn how to use IRC when he doesn't have a computer around him...
majoridiotnice trick, if you can manage.11:09

superm1man i'm having horrible latency to these IRC servers11:13
majoridiotyes gmt- i sent a copy @ 19:30 local11:13
superm1well if your around with rogue780 shows up again and i'm not, can you see if perhaps some screenshots can be obtained11:15
superm1etc11:15
majoridiotyes11:15
superm1or anyone else in the room is here when rogue780 shows up again11:15
majoridiotwill do.11:15
superm1now i gotta get these other packaging changes sorted out11:16
superm1i was thinking that all my complicated ideas can possibly be scratched11:16
superm1and revert back to an easier one11:16
majoridiotthe simpler the better, eh?11:16
superm1well currently the question that asks about the root password is "high" priority11:17
superm1all the others are low11:17
superm1eg root username11:17
superm1host11:17
superm1etc11:17
superm1so what if just making that root password question a lower priority11:17
superm1and then if they *have* changed the password, they just need to reconfigure the package11:18
superm1not sure that will work for sure though11:18
majoridioti thought you were checking to see if mysql had an existing pw and only prompting if so?11:19
superm1yes11:20
superm1thats what i was doing, but that has a condition that fails11:20
superm1- if the user is installing the package for the first time,11:20
superm1mysql isn't configured until after the question is popped11:20
superm1and hence isn't running11:20
majoridiotand the check can't be moved to after mysql is running?11:21
superm1if it can, i'm not sure how to do it:011:21
majoridiotah11:21
majoridiotell, if it is the first install, isn't it therefore a safe assumption that there is no root password, so forget the prompt?  or is that the condition you can't check for?11:23
superm1thats what I was just wondering - if there is a way to query the status of a package11:24
superm1like if its in preinstal11:24
superm1hehe, i almost forgot to add myself to the mythtv-group.  thanks mythtv-setup wrapper scripts :)11:45
majoridiot:)11:45
superm1okay i am just going to set this to a lower priority11:45
superm1it works fine that way11:45
superm1and if you set a password, you can just dpkg-reconfigure the package11:46
majoridiotk11:46
superm1it will cover more people if you dont ask for the password11:46
majoridiotagreed11:46
majoridiotand those with existing mysql dbs *should* know if a root pw is aset and if so, what it is.11:47
superm1i do wonder though - why doesn't the mysql package ask you for a password to start11:48
superm1and to that effect, if it stores the password in use in debconf - hence maybe we can just take it from that debconf11:49
majoridiothm.11:49
superm1it appears that if you dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0 it *does* give you an option to put in a new root password11:49
superm1very interesting11:49
majoridiotnice11:50
majoridioti'm getting backend errors on the new install... MPEGRec(/dev/video0) Error: Error getting codec params using old IVTV ioctl11:50
