keescooksuperm1: cool!01:32
keescooksuperm1: urgh.  I wish there was a better way to handle the backend start/stop... :(  doing that kill/xterm seems hackish, but I guess it'll be okay01:36
superm1well its just taken right from the init script01:36
superm1but since mythtv cant do the init script without sudo01:36
=== keescook nods
majoridioti think i'll give the RC a testdrive on my main box when it finally drops...01:37
majoridiotsee if it plays any nicer than herd 5 did.01:38
superm1majoridiot, just upgrade with update-manager01:38
superm1i did it to my desktop last night01:38
majoridioti had probs with hardware, as i recall.  wanna try the livecd first.01:38
superm1keescook, everything else look good though?01:42
keescooksuperm1: yeah, I'll get it built and uploaded in a few minutes.01:42
superm1keescook, awesome!01:42
keescookdid Hobbsee say when universe freezes?01:42
superm1today01:42
keescookthis area should be cleaned up for feisty+1, though, I'm not sure how.  :)01:43
superm1which area should be cleaned up for feisty+1?01:43
keescookthe backend start/stop business.  :)01:44
superm1oh of course01:44
superm1well thats plenty of time to think01:44
superm1and it only is affected on standalone installs01:44
superm1its still clean for mythtv-setup.sh01:44
majoridiotok... second run through and mythbackend is running as it should be after the fill.01:52
majoridiot:)01:52
majoridiotall systems go.01:52
superm1okay majoridiot you just need a screen cap from that one thing in a desktop install now right?01:54
majoridiotfrontend 100% as well.01:54
superm1for starting mythtv-setup?01:54
majoridiotyes01:54
majoridiot*thinking*01:54
majoridioti should be able to cap the ssh session for server stuff, so that should be it.01:54
majoridiotat the risk of redundantly repeating myself ad-nauseum-01:55
majoridiotbest...install...EVER.01:55
superm1hehe01:56
superm1well do we have all ends covered now for someone doing a GUI install01:56
superm1to stay away from command line?01:56
superm1that was the big thing i was hoping for01:56
majoridiotshould never have to open a terminal.01:56
majoridiot:D01:56
superm1k good01:57
=== majoridiot really wishes at least *some* mention of superm1's hard work on these packages had been left on the "what's new" page
=== majoridiot understands, just the same.
superm1i dont like to be modest in documentation01:59
majoridiotimmodest?01:59
majoridiothehe01:59
majoridiot'cause yer WAY too modest sometimes.01:59
superm1haha01:59
majoridiotshall i do a server install?01:59
majoridiotand cap that stuff?01:59
superm1which stuff is needed in the server install yet?02:00
majoridiotare there new prompts for the auto mythfill, etc or is that just for desktops?02:00
superm1yea those are there02:01
majoridiotk02:01
majoridioti'll grab 'em ssh02:01
superm1but you can just use the desktop screen shots, because they will be done using zentiy02:01
superm1zenity02:01
majoridiotnothing left to test before i format this desktop?02:01
superm1na i dont think so.  as long as these changes worked as expected02:01
majoridioteh... i'll cap the zenity shots... they are *slightly* different and some people get anal when the pix don't match the words. (unless you say forget it)02:02
majoridiotit's up and running fine- although no tuners.  LOL02:02
superm1well nothing has changed that would break anything else02:02
superm1all packaging changes02:03
superm1so no worries there02:03
keescooksuperm1: uploaded!02:03
superm1awesome keescook!02:03

billbraskycase is used05:54
majoridiotdo you get any BIOS beeps?05:54
billbrasky:-)05:54
billbraskynothing05:55
billbraskyweird stuff too05:55
billbraskylike cpu fan won't spin up05:55
billbraskybut gpu fan will05:55
majoridiotwow05:55
billbraskyi don't have any other hardware around here to troubleshoot & swap around05:55
billbraskyplus been busy with other stuff too  :-/05:56
majoridiothave you tried resetting the bios?05:56
billbraskyi had lots of stuff available to play with at the last job, so i'd usually just bring it in to work to do all my work with05:56
billbraskynot yet05:56
billbraskythe mobo 'manual' is a fold out poster/pamphlet05:56
billbraskyi couldn't believe it05:56

majoridiotthat would explain GPU but no cpu, etc.05:58
majoridiotdifferent PS circuits. :)05:58
billbraskyi've pared down my pc part collection... moved in with the gf to a place that is 600 sq ft. doesn't allow for 14 computers :-)05:58
billbraskyyep05:58

billbraskyright05:58
=== majoridiot stops with the bleeding obvious
billbraskyhehe05:59
billbraskynp05:59
billbraskyi got frustrated at not having any parts around here to swap out & test with05:59
majoridiotget milk crates, dude... they are stackable06:00
majoridiot(in case the GF has a sq ft rule)06:00
majoridiot;)06:00
billbraskyhaha06:00
=== billbrasky throws out 20 purses and 100 pairs of shoes
=== majoridiot always bases agreements like that on square footage, not cubic
majoridiotgetting rid of the sweaters alone would probably free up enough room for 2 or 3 good boxes.06:01
billbraskyhehe06:01
billbraskylooks like you guys been busy with the myth packages06:02
billbrasky& documentation06:02
=== majoridiot is just trying to keep up with superm1
billbraskylooks good06:02
majoridiotthe "final" package for the moment is sheer brilliance.06:02
superm1well i think that this pretty much is "final"06:03
superm1supposed to freeze universe tonite06:03
majoridiotfor desktop installs, you only need to open a terminal to change the bind address for mysql and then again for a final start and test of the backend.  all the rest is now GUI06:03
billbraskyimpressive06:04
superm1well you dont even have to do that much necessarily :)06:04
majoridiotsuperm1: you had been quiet for a little while... wasn't sure what you were up to ;)06:04

majoridioti was hoping haha... it just eludes me.06:08
majoridiotand i dig odd humor06:08
billbraskybut i can see why some people don't like it06:08
majoridiotit's not "not like" per se, i'm just indifferent.  i think i've chucked twice in three or four viewings06:09

majoridiotyou'll like the new feisty packages :)09:26
majoridiotdoing laundry... keep talkin away, i'll brb.09:26
majoridiotyes... the feisty packages are clear to go.09:29
majoridiotthe most recent should be in your local mirror by now... it is in the one that i use.09:29
Xenocidecool09:30
Xenocidei just hope the blue screen bug doesn't pop back up for me09:30
majoridiot?09:30

majoridiotnp09:30
Xenocidei had the blueman group looking people, mario submitted those screenshots to ATI devs09:30
Xenocideidk if he told you09:30
Xenocidebrb09:31
majoridiotoh that.  don't get your hopes up.  ATI has pretty much said no support now... nor for the forseeable future.09:31
majoridioti just pulled the radeon 9600 out of my backend box and put in a spare nvidia 5500FX.  got tired of fighting the ATI drivers to ge TV out working and their little announcement about incompatibility, etc. kinda sealed the deal.  no more ATI for me.09:33
Xenocidewell09:36
Xenocidesadly my frontend/backend box is pci-express09:37
Xenocideand i don't want to go shelling out $$09:37
Xenocideagp fine i can get a card for next to nothing09:37
majoridiotyeah09:37
Xenocidei hate laundry!!!09:38
majoridioti just put in a (regular) pci 550009:38
Xenocidei could probabbly do that but i just don't want to spend any $$09:38
majoridioti had spares, so it worked out ok.09:39
Xenocidedamn my jeans are still wet09:39
Xenocideits possible for mythvideo to pull off a share right?09:44
majoridiotabsolutely09:46
majoridiotas long as the permissions are set right09:47
majoridiotbasically chmod -R a+r <path>09:47
majoridiotto set read permissions globally09:47
Xenocidecool09:47
Xenocideimpulling 600gb out and using freenas instead09:48
majoridiotin fact, i want to setup my xvid drive on this frontend  so the backend can share it09:48
majoridiotso i can watch xvids on the main tv when it is workin09:49
majoridioti will say that the one beauty thing about laundry day...09:55
majoridiotcleeeeeeeeen sheeeeeeeeets.09:55
majoridiot:D09:55
Xenocidehaha i almost done with mine09:57
Xenocidefor the feisty LIRC package, i don't need mario's repository for the pvr-150 remote, right?09:58
majoridiotright09:58
Xenocidelooks like its so much easier to install09:58
majoridiotMUCH :)09:58
Xenocideno ivtv, or anything09:58

majoridiotfrom time to time that alt boots with a goofy screen.11:43
Xenocideand i should use the pvr150 module11:44
Xenocideincase i want ir blaster?11:44
majoridiotfor some reason it throws up the login before the init scrips are done.11:44
Xenocidei didn' teven know he put that in there11:44
majoridiotpvr150 for oncard blaster, yes.11:44
majoridiotmceusb or mceusb2 for usb blaster11:44
Xenocidepvr150 will also support the remote as well though11:45
