williammandadoes video automatically come out of the super video port on the video card or do I need to setup the xorg.conf file?01:42
williammandathis would be foe 7.04...xorg 7.201:43
superm1super video port?01:47
williammandaya...the little round connector01:48
williammandausually a black cable01:48
superm1oh svideo - does that really mean super video?01:48
superm1never knew01:48
williammandayes it does01:48
williammandait was the big thing in it's day01:49
superm1i must be young :)01:49
williammandayes i think so :)01:49
superm1it won't come out automatically01:49
superm1you'll need to configure tv-out01:49
superm1easiest way to do it is with nvidia-settings01:49
superm1its installed with the nvidia proprietary driver01:49
williammandai have a ati x1650 card01:50
superm1then aticonfig is your way to go01:50
williammandai'm using the vesa driver01:50
superm1tv out won't be supported unless you use the fglrx driver01:50
superm1afaik01:50
williammandahummm01:51
williammandai get wierd things when using the restricted driver01:51
superm1like weird colors and such?01:52
williammandatransparent windows that don't over write01:52
williammandathe previous text...01:52
superm1yup good ol' buggy ATI01:52
williammandaso I have text piled upon text01:52
superm1could you pop in an nvidia card?01:53
superm1even a so so one01:53
williammandamaybe...i was wanted to use the ati card here...it has been collecting dust01:53
superm1there was a reason majoridiot was willing to give away his ati x*** series card a few weeks ago :)01:55
williammandawhen using the svideo can I use the other digital video port for the computer?01:55
superm1yes01:55
williammandaso I won't need to modofy the xorg file at all?01:55
superm1aticonfig will do it all for you01:56
superm1you just need to look for the correct options that you are wanting01:56
williammandak01:56
superm1but if you use nvidia, then its all thru a really sweet gui app01:56

rogue780|laptophi everybody!01:56
superm1hi rogue780|laptop01:57
rogue780|laptopque paso?!01:57
rogue780|laptopI'm happy I got my laptop running again :O)01:57
superm1its just that crunch time for me... .finals this week and then freedom (and more mythtv time )01:57
superm1:)01:57
rogue780|laptopwhat courses are you taking?01:57
rogue780|laptopI'm about to reload my mythtv frontend with feisty01:58
rogue780|laptopI heard there's a website for mythbuntu now? is that true?01:58
superm1a comp architectures course discussing mips, a EM course, technical writing, senior design, senior portfolio, non discrete math / algorithms01:58
superm1its on its way up01:59
superm1as soon as my finals are done, i've got a whole week to put towards it01:59
rogue780|laptopnice. I'm starting my BS in CS...have about 20 credits towards it01:59
rogue780|laptophoping to get it half done before I get out of the air force in 3 years02:00
superm1ah one of those folks ;002:00
williammandaty for the help!02:01
rogue780|laptopwhat I really want is software engineering, but there aren't any universities that offer that around here for the price the airforce will pay (I get 100% tuition paid by the air force up to $250/credit hour and $4,500 a year)02:01
superm1oh wow02:02
superm1very nice02:02
rogue780|laptopthen when I get out have have $40,000+ for college from my G.I bill02:02
rogue780|laptopI've already got two AA degrees02:02
superm1your set here then dude02:03
rogue780|laptopanyway, I gotta do some work around the house...be back a little later02:03
superm1k02:05
williammandahow can i get back to the vesa driver?  The restricted didn't work...stuck at the console02:13
rogue780|laptopwilliammanda, in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf  under device section change driver from nvidia, or fglx or whatever to vesa02:14
williammandak ty02:14
rogue780|laptopor see if there is an xorg.conf.bak or .0 or .old or something....that might be your old working xorg.conf file02:15
rogue780|laptopanyone know where I can get libdvdcss2?02:15
williammandafrom the medubuntu...if i spelled it right02:16
williammandaset it up in sources02:17
superm1medibuntu has it yet02:18
superm1i beleive02:18
williammandahttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_media_Feisty02:18
superm1yup02:18
rogue780|laptopawesome02:24
rogue780|laptopanyone know why they were ripped fro the standard sources and torn asunder?02:25
superm1libdvdcss2?02:26
rogue780|laptopit's the codec required to play encrypted (every) dvd02:37
rogue780|laptopwtf?! I'm installing a commandline system on my myth frontend. it has no monitor, just the tv. everything looks good until I get into the actual setup--I think I see it mention something about a framebuffer...not sure because the screen starts  scrolling vertically at an unreadable rate02:38
rogue780|laptopnot sure what keyboard scheme I chose...I hope it wasn't dvorak02:39
superm1rogue780|laptop, i wasnt sure if you were asking why libdvdcss2 wasnt in the repositories02:47
superm1sounds like that framebuffer issue is trouble though -02:48
rogue780|laptopyeah, that's what I'm asking02:48
rogue780|laptopstupid unichrome02:48
superm1its not in the repos because its questionable legality02:48
rogue780|laptopsuperm1, what would you think of a website that offered cash prizes to people/groups who accomplish specific software design projects... say $90,000 to create a graphics library that is comparable to dirextx9 and offers easy portability between windows and linux, or $500 to someone who creates a centralized LAMP server administration program02:54
rogue780|laptopdo you think such an endeavor would go over well in the open source community?02:55
superm1No i dont.02:55
superm1bounties work much better with individual projects02:55
superm1rather than a centralized server from what i have seen02:55
rogue780|laptopjust a server administration program. it wouldn't change the server itself02:56
superm1because then you have the direct approval of thepeople that regularly work with the project for the bounty to even go out02:56
rogue780|laptopand why would that be a problem? I mean, isn't the point of the opensource community to be able to build on each other's accomplishments?02:57
superm1yes, but when you involve money things change02:57
rogue780|laptopall the code and projects would have to be under a certain license which gives people the ability to update, critique, and build off of the code...the money is just to provide incentive to push forward otherwise stagnant development in a positive direction02:59
rogue780|laptopI think that when you involve money and a reward system you would get a more standardized product.03:00
williammandawhere is nvidia config located?03:01
williammandafor the restricted driver03:01
superm1I see where you are coming from on this, but I can just see a lot of hostility forming among projects by doing this too03:01
superm1i think the basic concept is there and can be experimented with a few smaller projects03:01
superm1given that there is money there03:02
superm1nvidia config?03:02
superm1as in for nvidia-settings03:02
williammandaok...what we were talking about earlier03:02
superm1oh03:02
williammandaso I can setup the svideo03:02
superm1run nvidia-settings03:02
williammandaconsole?03:02
superm1it is also in the menus i think, but the command line to run it is nvidia-settings03:02
superm1you have to be in a gui to do it03:02
superm1or have the DISPLAY variable exported correctly03:03
superm1over ssh to do it03:03
williammandaa tv resolution is 720*480 right?03:05
rogue780|laptopman that's weird...the setup had framebuffer issues, but so far the actual system doesn't03:06
rogue780|laptopweird03:06

keescooksuperm1: hiya.  so any news on the mythtv thing during ubuntu-live?06:34
superm1hi keescook06:35
superm1yup06:35
superm1i'll be coming up that way06:35
superm1got the +1 from my manager to take off a few days, and Andrew got the +1 from the orielly guys to pay my ticket into ULive06:36
keescooksuperm1: sweet!06:36
keescookthat's totally great!  :):)06:36
superm1just going to have to take care of airfare and hotel out of pocket (which is fine, small vacation for me :))06:36
superm1yea i'm  really excited!06:36
superm1andrew is in the process of moving right now, so I haven't ironed out the details with him on everything we will talk about and how its going to be organized as of yet, but i did shoot him some of my ideas and he gave me a few of his06:37
superm1i think our only possible problem is what hardware we can pull together here for demo purposes (hi def tuners and such)06:38
keescookcool; that'll be a great two weeks06:38
keescookI'll see if a buddy can bring in his myth (hd) system; he just got it up with feisty.06:39
superm1oh really?06:39
keescookyeah, he really liked all the docs and said getting it set up was _super_ easy.  :)06:39
superm1thats great06:39
superm1let me know what he would be able to bring, frontend or backend hardware06:39
superm1the less we have to bring in the plane the better06:39
keescookokay, cool.  I'll see if I can con him into it.  ;)06:39
superm1i was going to contact silicon dust after i get added to the page for speaking at this event06:40
superm1and ask them if they would be willing to sponsor a HDHomeRun tuner for us06:40
superm1or at least let us borrow one06:40
keescookniiice06:40
keescookback later; I gotta catch up from my mini-vacation.  :)06:40
superm1k.06:40
superm1well one more quick question if i can06:41
superm1i should ask you - how is hidef reception in that area, would we expect troubles?06:41
tgm4883_laptopif anyone sees majoridiot before I do could they let him know I checked TNTHD, ESPNHD, NBCHD, tvlandp, and G4 (all digital channels except tvlandp) and non have 5c implemented or copy control06:47
tgm4883_laptopi mean none have either06:48
hugolpWhats the atribute "Browsable" of a video file? I change it but it seems to have no effect06:48
hugolpanyone?06:49
superm1tgm4883_laptop, i'll let him know if i see him06:55
superm1your lucky :)06:55
superm1hugolp, browsable attribute?06:55
superm1are you saying for individual files06:55
superm1or mythvideo06:55
tgm4883_laptopthanks06:57
hugolpsuperm1:  "include while browsing" maybe?06:58
superm1i dont have a mythfrontend avail to me right this minute, but the only thing i can remember about "browsable" is that it shows all files, whether they have been scanned for metadata or not06:59
superm1its a lot quicker if you have a lot of content in the mythvideo directory and dont care for the metadata06:59

bendaileythe site looks pretty good07:03
Davieysorry for the miss-pell07:03
hugolpsuperm1:  but I do care about the metadata and I want it to behave the other way round and it just wont07:03
superm1you were the chap that was going to be starting mythbuntu without us right :)07:03
hugolpanyway thanks07:03
bendaileynot a prob lots of people get it wrong07:03
bendaileyyeah I had it as a brain storm and never got the project started07:04
superm1ah.  well its been a long work in progress here, lots of behind the scenes things had to happen if we were going to maintain a close relationship with ubuntu07:04
superm1so thats why there has been no public announcements from us on it07:04
bendaileyOK how has the canonical stuff gone?07:05
superm1for the moment, it cant be an officially supported derivative in canonical's eyes07:06
superm1since mythtv is multiverse07:06
superm1and mythtv is multiverse because it has a build-dep and dep on lame07:06
gardengnomeyou could patch out liblame support. isaac richards is going to love you for that... :>07:06
superm1hehe07:07
bendaileysounds like fun ...... have to love politics07:07
bendaileySorry I am new to IRC is there a way to send private messages?07:07
superm1bendailey, you missed out on all the fun legal mess with ivtv last fall :)07:07
superm1you need to register with freenode.net07:08

bendaileywhat do others use for IRC?07:09
Davieyxchat07:10
superm1xchat and irssi are two popular ones07:10
bendaileythanks I may try them sometime always trying to learn07:10
bendaileySo how can I be of the most help to mythbuntu?07:10
superm1xchat is pretty user friendly07:10
superm1well where you say your specialty/strengths lie?07:11
superm1packaging, python, site management, documentation, artwork07:11
superm1bug fixing/triaging07:11
Davieyuser support07:11
bendaileynot artwork07:12
bendaileyI can help with site management, and user support07:12
Davieygreat!07:12
bendaileyI can help with bug fixing and I have been lurking on the mythtv mail listing for the last month or so07:13
bendaileyI am working on learning C07:13
Davieyyour brave!07:13
superm1bendailey, wonderful07:14
bendaileyI can currently can write software patches and follow most code in php, python, perl, javascript, ruby, bash, and .....07:14
bendaileyI can write full apps from scratch in php right now07:14
bendaileyHow does the hosting situation look for mythbuntu?07:15
superm1well hopefully most of the site can be self sustained by drupal07:15
superm1imbrandon has it under control07:15
superm1http://pegasus.imbrandon.com is the temporary domain07:15
superm1we just got that up and running a few days ago07:15
DavieyServer has only been up 3 days!07:16
bendaileyok do you want mythbuntu.org pointed at that site? now or in the future?07:16
superm1well now would be great07:16
superm1imbrandon, ping?07:16
Davieysuperm1, just for your info - the offical ubuntu theme is installed07:18
superm1Daviey, very good.07:18
superm1how configurable is it?07:18
Davieyseems very07:18
superm1great07:18
bendaileydoes canonical run there other sites on drupal?07:18
Davieyyes07:18
superm1yup07:18
bendaileygreat07:18
superm1they recently switched to it (2 months ago i think)07:19
bendaileyok I assumed the used some CMS I just never dug to see which one07:19
superm1bendailey, as for the software situation, the big thing right now for several of us is going to be deciphering and adding to ubiquity which is a big python mess07:19
DavieyBig MESS07:19
superm1so at this point you can join in that mess, or bug fixing :)07:20
superm1most of the rest of the ISO generation script is done though07:20
superm1it builds from a few megs of binary files for isolinux and a short script that debootstraps into an ISO image07:20
bendaileygreat07:21
superm1so in the near future i'm going to get that script and our weekly builds sorted out, and then join these other guys in the ubiquity mess07:21
bendaileyI am getting 503 errors from launchpad when doing a bzr branch07:21
Davieyso myth-frontend can run from a live cd :)07:21
superm1when doing what with a bzr branch?07:22
superm1a push or checkout?07:22
bendailey$ bzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mythtv/mythbuntu/devel mythbuntu07:22
superm1i've always done bzr checkout URL location07:23
superm1i'm not sure if branch is the right verb to use though07:23
bendaileyok I believe I miss read man page I just read it again sorry07:23
superm1i've been using bzr for the last 8 months or so, and i'm still a bit confused with it, so dont fret :)07:24
Davieyheck, we had enough problems setting the branch up!07:24
bendaileyok nice to know I am not alone07:25
superm1i think that once we have our first release we should refresh that branch07:25
superm1its 130 megs or so right now07:25
superm1because of all the binary files that have been in it at some point07:25
bendaileyI see07:26
bendaileywell should I get in touch with imbrandon about mythbuntu.org?07:26
superm1yes.07:26
superm1if he doesnt come back here in the near future, then shoot him an email07:26

Markieman234Hey guys,I've run into a bit of a roadblock with tuning my Hauppauge WinTV Nova T USB2 external card with kubuntu Feisty 7.04.10:33
Markieman234Can anyone help?10:33
Markieman234anyone?10:34
Davieywhats the problem exactly?10:35
Markieman234The card is installed okay with the proper firmware and mapped to the relevant device location, however when attempting a "scan" command I get the following messages:10:35
Markieman234http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18465/10:35
Markieman234timeout errors10:35
Markieman234I get the same in MythTV when doing a channel scan10:35
Davieywhats the '5' for?10:38
Davieyi see10:38
Daviey"multiply all filter timeouts by factor 5"10:38
Markieman234yep, thats it10:39
DavieyIt's definitely /dev/dvb/adapter0?10:39
Markieman234thats the one10:39
Davieynormally you > it into the channels.conf10:40
Davieybut that shouldn't affect the timeout10:40
Markieman234I was following this guide10:40
Markieman234ive checked by disconnecting it and then reconnecting it and10:40

Markieman234I used that for the dvb-utils info10:41
rogue780|laptophow do I edit the wiki for mythtv/feisty?10:42
Markieman234the fact it's a filter timeout leads me to think it's filter related, however xine-ffmpeg is installed as stated in the howto10:43
DavieyMarkieman234, silly question - but have you made it work at all?  Ie card is working and aerial okay?10:43
Markieman234aerial is perfect, its a roof aerial10:44
Markieman234the card itself is fine, it works ok under windows10:44
Davieyhmm10:45
Markieman234also I did the usb device history command after disconnecting it and reconnecting it again and it picks it up fine and puts it into a warm state, mounting it to /dev/dvb/adapter010:45
DavieyNot sure why the kernel needed patching though10:45
Davieysupport for my pci nova's worked out of the box10:46
Markieman234no it didn't, I ignored the kernel patching bit, I just used it to get the proper "scan" command10:47
Markieman234FMI10:47

superm1doing all this hosting, and mail and all?11:40
imbrandonits actualy mostly setup now, but i cant do some of the things untill the domain points to the right NS11:40
imbrandonsuperm1, we can always upgrade the processor / memory etc11:41
imbrandonbut i have a seperate mail server, you'll notice if you look at the MX records on ubuntuwire its on another box :)11:41
superm1imbrandon, k.  Daviey just got me a bit worried when told me it was sitting at 90 percent cpu when he hit refresh a bunch11:41
superm1so i was thinking to myself, god this thing will die from a digg11:41
imbrandon:)11:42
imbrandonno worries, also i need to do some optimazations too11:42
superm1i saw a throttling module that can kick in after so many connections for drupal that i put on there11:43
imbrandonbut i run a popular site ( 3000 hits an hours ) on a 800mhz11:43
imbrandonan hour*11:43
imbrandonplus i'm the main mirror for seveas's repos and its on a 600mhz ;)11:43
imbrandonanyhow yes, we will need to beef up the box, but i can do all that in place with no downtime11:44
imbrandonas needed11:44
superm1wow11:44
imbrandoneventualy i have a 3ghz dual core with 4 gigs of ram i'm gonna migrate it to, but i need to get some things off the box first11:45
superm1i guess i've underestimated how much is really needed for hosting a site11:45
superm1how can you do such things in place without downtime?11:45
majoridiotfast hands?11:46
imbrandoni do this for a living :) , but DNS tricks11:46
superm1i mean i can see rsync the filesystem and such11:46
imbrandonbasicly put a new box in place , have it sync, then take the ip and then sway hardware etc11:46
superm1hehe ah i see11:46
imbrandoneach box i have up there has a dupe11:46
imbrandonwith eactly the same hardware11:46
imbrandon:)11:47
superm1for your other boxes do you have some sort of redundancy system ready to go at the "flip of a switch" per say then?11:47
imbrandonyup11:47
imbrandonthats why i work on the backend more than the front, i make sure the shit stays stable :)11:48
imbrandonor try to11:48
superm1ah i see.  cool cool11:48
superm1as for building off those other buildd's you have - do i need to get a login for scping stuff over?11:49
superm1or how does that work11:49
imbrandoni'll make a generic account for the mythbuntu box to grab the build queue, access is limited to only MOTU and core-dev for now11:49
imbrandonbut i can make machine accounts11:49
superm1oh i see11:49
superm1i'm finishing off a script that will run weekly and grab a new svn co of 0.20-fixes11:50
superm1and put together a debian source package11:50

imbrandonyea make the scripts to run localy and i'll adapt the first one or two to show you11:57
imbrandonthen from there you can make them all work with the buildd's11:57
superm1i had them working locally at home, but on pegasus i made a user that would run the scripts and they are not working perfectly yet, so i've still got to hack at them a bit11:58
