superm1tgm4883, did you want to take over any of these specs at all that we are preparing?12:35
tgm4883Not yet, I have west coast finals comming up these next 2 weeks so I don't want to commit to something that im not prepared to complete12:36
superm1K.12:36
tgm4883then i should be free12:36
superm1didnt want to leave you out :)12:37
tgm4883thanks12:37
superm1anyone know what ever happened to bendailey?12:37
tgm4883!seen bendailey12:37
ubotuSorry, I don't know anything about seen bendailey - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi12:37
superm1he wanted to help out, and such, but hasnt been around for ages12:37
superm1i know majoridiot is swamped in work stuff with a big case lately12:38
DaveMorrisI've been seeing him in here whilst you've been sleeping superm112:40
=== jono [n=jono@ubuntu/member/jono] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
superm1man i'm off IRC for like 6 hours a day, and of course thats when he stops in12:41
superm1well if you see him around again, ask him if he is interested on taking up something and committing to a few weeks12:42
superm1we've to a variety of specs that are going to need to be filled12:42
superm1i'll file some more later this evening12:42

Davieynice.... site is suddenly really responsive12:51
=== jono [n=jono@ubuntu/member/jono] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
superm1just from pointing to that mirro?12:53
Davieyyep12:53
superm1see the funny thing12:53
superm1last night before i went to bed12:53
superm1i was talking to imbrandon12:53
superm1and he mentioned that he moved his other server to lighttpd12:53
superm1and i said that we should hold off moving to it until needing it12:54
Davieyheh12:54
=== superm1 smacks himself in the head now
Davieynot sure that is the big issue...  think it was bandwidth!12:54
DaveMorrishope the other guy like having his server hammered12:54
DaveMorrisit was bandwidth12:54
DaveMorristhe iso's where making the site unusable12:54
Davieyif the new mirror starts respinding slowly, i'll move it back12:55
superm1i wish the logs would finish parsing12:55
DaveMorrisI suggest we have 2 different machines, 1 with the iso's on, running a bit torrent tracker as well, the other with the site and apt repo's12:55
Davieyhmm12:56
superm1well next time we'll have time to get us all a copy12:57
superm1and seeding too12:57
superm1we can probably run the tracker right from there12:57
DaveMorriswe seeding the amd64 yet?12:57
Davieywell announce *only* torrent until hype goes12:57
DavieyDaveMorris: is there a need to seed amd54?12:58
Davieydemand is quite low imho12:58
superm1DaveMorris, but that image doesnt have ubiquity and usplash i thought?12:58
tgm4883I dont even have the amd64 iso12:58
DaveMorristrue, but its only an alpha, ppl are grabbing it to have a look12:58
superm1i wget'ed it to mythbuntu.org but its just sitting in my home directory12:58
=== DaveMorris still hasn't installed it once himself yet
DaveMorris763 diggs now12:59
=== superm1 has installed it too many times in VMs
tgm4883question, since we release with ubuntu releases are we trying to also release with the tribe releases?01:00
superm1"No LIRC support? What's the point then? Getting the remote and IR blaster functions working is easily the most difficult part of setting up MythTV, involving compiling kernel modules and manually editing a text file to map all the remote buttons. If the Mytbuntu team hasn't automated the process, as the LinuxMCE guys did, then what's the difference between this release and just installing Feisty and then getting the MythTV packages throu01:01
superm1gh Synaptic?"01:01
superm1the linuxmce guys have a lirc mapper??01:01
DaveMorrisdoes the poster not reliase its only an alpha01:01
tgm4883he was reminded01:01
Davieynice to have your efforts bashed01:02
tgm4883my favorite is "These guys should focus on helping the xbmc linux port."01:02
superm1haha01:03
superm1yea i saw that one too01:03
tgm4883I gave that a thumbs down01:03
DaveMorris>>* The standalone backend advanced options remove too much and take out the backend too!01:04
DaveMorriswhat do they mean there?01:04
superm1thats in the known issues01:04
superm1for that ubiquity biuld01:04
superm1its hackishly solved in the current ubiquity build01:04
DaveMorrisits fixed in the amd64 one01:04
superm1DaveMorris, assuming you can get away without a 64 bit ubiquity build :)01:04
tgm4883where is the new amd64 iso, i'll throw it up in the vm01:05
superm1http://www.mythbuntu.org/~supermario/01:05
superm1for now01:05

DaveMorris"I get that it's an alpha. I don't get why they'd bother releasing something that essentially does nothing. They've apparently built a GUI that automates a process that can be performed with less than ten terminal commands."01:05
DaveMorriswe didn't digg it01:06
DaveMorristhere isn't even a digg it button with the rss feed01:06
superm1a few guys even blogged it too01:06
DavieyDaveMorris: but there is on the site01:06
DaveMorris"I hope Mythbuntu's method of setting up the hard drives is a far cry better than Knoppmyth's installer." how does the knoopix one do it?01:06
tgm4883ok i'll have it in 10 minutes.  Is there an md5sum DaveMorris?01:06
superm1DaveMorris, dunno.  Something ncurses i'd think01:07
superm1tgm4883, refresh01:07
DavieyDaveMorris: hda1 =  / hda3 =  /myth   IIRC01:07
superm1i put that there too01:07
Davieyquite nice imho01:07
DaveMorrisyeah superm1 never grabbed it http://foss.it.brighton.ac.uk/epoch/mythbuntu/01:07
superm1yes i did01:07
tgm4883ha01:07
tgm4883thanks01:07
superm1DaveMorris, :)01:07
superm1Hey majoridiot made it in01:07
superm1hows it going?01:07
tgm4883hi majoridiot01:07
DaveMorriscan we ask if the user if they have 2 hard drvies installed, and make the larger drive for recordings01:07
majoridiotnuts.01:07
DaveMorrisI'd recommend using 2 drivers for users01:08
majoridiothave a few so i thought i'd drop in01:08
DaveMorrisas myth seems to burn through hard drives01:08
superm1DaveMorris, the partitioner is going to be a huge mess.....01:08
superm1i dont have any idea how its going to be done01:08
superm1right now its just using standard ubuntu partitioner01:08
superm1majoridiot, shoot01:08
majoridiot*bang*01:08
superm1somehow i misread your statement. i  thought you said you had a few ideas01:09
superm1no a few moments01:09
majoridiotah lol01:09
Davieyi read it the same as you superm1 :)01:10
majoridiotalways have ideas... just not the time to do anything with them :S01:10
superm1so to make up for that.  think of a few ideas that we should write more specs01:10
DaveMorrisI read as I've had a few ie drinks01:10
superm1lol01:10
superm1funny how we all interpreted that01:10
majoridiotDaveMorris- i wish.01:10
superm1must say somtehing about whats on all our minds' or something01:10
Daviey$ sudo apt-get install beer01:11
DaveMorrissuperm1: blue print link, I will book mark it01:11
Davieyexec -o sudo apt-get install beer01:11
=== DaveMorris can never find his way around LP
tgm4883:(01:11
superm1https://blueprints.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/01:11
tgm4883E: Couldn't find package beer01:11
superm1that is for mythbuntu01:11
superm1and this is the mythtv one01:11
superm1https://blueprints.launchpad.net/mythtv/01:11
DaveMorriswhats https://blueprints.launchpad.net/~mythbuntu/ then?01:12
Daviey~mythbuntu is the team01:12
superm1^ what he said01:12
Davieyand mythbuntu is the project IIRC01:12
tgm4883ah that reminds me01:12
tgm4883what did we find out about the perl bindings superm1?01:13
superm1tgm4883, they are supported on trunk, and gardengnome is going to add them to his trunk packaging01:13
superm1nothing about them working on -fixes01:13
tgm4883ah01:13
tgm4883so it should work with the alpha?01:13
superm1but once he adds them to trunk packaging, i'll poke some more01:13
superm1well the alpha is still using -fixes01:13
superm1just a newer -fixes01:13
tgm4883ok01:14
superm1unless 0.21 is released01:14
superm1which gardengnome indicated that Chutt wants to release it01:14
superm1that its been a whlie01:14
Davieyhmm - leechers bleeding off01:14
superm1alright so majoridiot if there was something you really wanted to see on mythbuntu, what is it?01:14
superm1what would make it shine above the rest01:15
superm1other than its done by us of course01:15
majoridiotsec... phone :(01:16
DaveMorrisauto dectedtion of shared music/films over limewire like rhythbox does01:16
DaveMorrisauto dection of nfs which can be mounted01:17
superm1Can NFS shares be probed?01:17
superm1I think they actually can01:17
superm1well that does bring another idea i was considering up though01:17
superm1setting up samba during install01:17
superm1with some sane shares01:18
superm1and sane permissions01:18
DaveMorrishttps://blueprints.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+spec/partitioner01:18
superm1Looks great DaveMorris01:19
DaveMorriswe could prehaps have a small meta package for your desktop, which installs the nfs stuff and sorts out the exporting so your frontend/backends can find it01:19
majoridiotso much for this... gotta take a conf. call for work :(01:19
majoridioti'll be back asap01:20
superm1cu majoridiot01:20
majoridiotbiab01:20
superm1i can definately forsee that fitting into Daviey 's installer then too01:20
superm1*control centre01:20
=== DaveMorris hopes majoridiot works on the american contient
superm1he does01:20
DaveMorrissuperm1: daviey's installer is for the backends01:20
DaveMorrisatm my desktop shares my music via nfs to my mythfrontend01:21
superm1well how about this then?01:21
superm1that control centre01:21
DaveMorrisso it'll be a package which goes on a non myth box01:21
superm1can detect the type of install you have01:21
superm1Then something that is gnomeish01:21
superm1dont they have something like that already01:21
superm1in gnome to export nfs shares?01:22
DaveMorrisdo they?01:22
superm1right click a folder01:22
superm1i swear they do01:22
=== DaveMorris checks
tgm4883I had a thought that recently came to me in a forum thread01:22
superm1yea it offers to setup nfs or samba01:22
superm1for you when you do that01:22
superm1tgm4883, shoot01:23
DaveMorrissuperm1: It needs nfs or smba installed01:23
tgm4883although i haven't even set it up so I dont know if it works or now01:23
tgm4883not01:23
DaveMorrismine only offers to share via nfs01:23
superm1DaveMorris, but does install them for you during that gui01:23
superm1oh mine offers to install services for both01:23
superm1and then go from there01:23
DavieyHmm.. if you can autoprobe a backend nfs/samba that would be awesome01:24
superm1You can probe for shares01:24
Davieycould store mysql.txt01:24
superm1if you have the right utils installed01:24
tgm4883and perhaps it already works or is implemented, but what about UPnP devices being able to connect to the mythbackend (specifically the xbox 360)01:24
superm1ooh export the mysql.txt01:24
superm1on the backend01:24
superm1tgm4883, that is in the works01:24
tgm4883ah01:25
Davieysuperm1: that's a great idea, why didn't i think of that <grin>01:25
superm1trunk has much improved support for it01:25
superm1Daviey, get a spec on launchpad01:25
superm1for it01:25
Davieyheh01:25
tgm4883i didn't even know you could connect to a linux box from the 360 until the other day01:25
Davieywho made https://blueprints.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+spec/firmware-finder ?01:26
superm1Me01:26
Davieycool01:26
superm1i've got a buddy that might do it, and then it will be a button in your control centre01:26
Davieyoh, why have we got 'Answers' switched off?01:27
=== superm1 really likes typing centre rather than center. he feels more cultured
Davieythat's great superm1, maybe we an wean you from the abuse of lanugae that is English (USA)01:27
DaveMorrishmm, is the control center gonna run on the backend?01:27
superm1Daviey, we'll have a forums section opened up eventually on ubuntuforums01:27
DaveMorrisor be an app you can install on any box to control the backend01:28
=== DaveMorris prefers the 2nd option
DaveMorrisor web page backend control01:28
=== tgm4883 prefers center. If he wanted to be cultured he would be in a petre dish
superm1the way I understood it, it will be on any mythbuntu box01:28
superm1and it will configure things commonly done01:29
superm1like lirc01:29
superm1and calling mythtv-setup01:29
superm1and opening nvidia or ati control panels01:29
DaveMorrisbut a frontend won't have mythtv-setup ;)01:29
superm1so it will have to find a way to figure out what kind of box its on01:29
superm1once the meta is done01:29
superm1debconf can store that info01:30
superm1its stored in ubiquity atm01:30
=== DaveMorris is trying to think of ways his customerized his myth setup
superm1during nvidia driver install, we will have to make sure xvmc is preconfigured01:31
superm1(once driver install is figured out of course)01:32
DaveMorriswhat would be really nice is if you had a big NAS and a smaller mythbox.  It records a show, then once it's done, it moves the file to the NAS, and symblinks to it.01:32
superm1but thats a very corner setup01:32
superm1for someone to have that01:32
DaveMorriscorner setup ?01:33
superm1corner case setup01:33
superm1like a particular setup that not a lot of users will necessarily have01:33
DaveMorrisI don't know the term01:33
DaveMorrisyes, but we could also offer it as a setup01:33
superm1but they need to have a NAS then01:33
DaveMorrisor just a another box with a load of disks01:34
DaveMorrisand nfs01:34
superm1why not just record directly over the network to the alternate box then?01:34
DaveMorriswould have to be with 0.21 and muliple storage locations though01:34
DaveMorrissuperm1: wasn't sure if it'd be quick enough01:34
superm1this whole looming 0.21 thing is going to be the bane of our existance i think01:35
superm1with our luck it will come out like 5 days after our release01:35
DaveMorrisI jsut thought of it as a advanced option01:36
superm1right01:36
DaveMorrissome people can easily do the basic stuff, and wanna be 'cool' by having the harder stuff01:36
DaveMorristhese 'cool' people can normally afford the extra hardware01:37
tgm4883would 5 days after our release be better or worse than 5 days before?01:37
superm1haha01:37
superm1i think so01:37
superm1because 5 days before, we have time to fix it01:37
DaveMorrisanyway I need to sleep01:37
superm15 days after, that means that we have to go back01:37
superm1and fix it01:37
superm1after people downloaded it a lot01:37
superm1night DaveMorris01:37
tgm4883ah we would go back and implement it01:38
DaveMorrisI thnink Daviey has already sneek off01:38
superm1that Daviey character01:38
superm1can we really trust him....... ;)01:38
tgm4883hmm, any chance of putting our logo on the login screen?01:39
tgm4883hmm, i think there is something wrong with the 64-bit iso01:40
DaveMorriswhys that?01:40
tgm4883i seem to be stuck in a loop01:40
superm1tgm4883, i've got that figured out already01:40
superm1http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=539701:40
DaveMorristgm4883 you have amd64 then?01:41
tgm4883yea01:41
DaveMorrisI'll test it tomorrow at work, but where is the loop stuck then?01:41
superm1DaveMorris, if you rebuild, you can compare the log to this one01:41
superm1http://www.mythbuntu.org/files/iso/buildlog01:41
superm1that is the last build that was done on pegasus01:41
superm1my roomate has a collection of ppc boxes.  i might try to snag one of those01:42
superm1and get a ppc build made too01:43
DaveMorristgm4883 where does it get stuck?01:43
tgm4883after you reboot right after installing, it goes into the myth setup for language and database configuration.  After the second page of database configuration it restarts the window manager and sticks you right back into the language chooser01:44
superm1tgm4883, I think i know what that is01:44
superm1when you did install though01:44
superm1did you get options01:44
superm1for fe/be01:44
tgm4883no01:44
superm1and be only and fe only?01:44
superm1then this build isnt good anyhow01:45
superm1it doesnt have the newer ubiquity01:45
superm1which works around a ton of that01:45
DaveMorrisoh well01:46
DaveMorrisdef off to bed now01:46
DaveMorrisnight all01:46
superm1nn01:46
tgm4883:(01:57
superm1?01:57
tgm4883trying the 32bit iso and the installer crashed01:57
superm1yick01:57
superm1what were you doing?01:57
tgm4883Installing in my VM, I selected an advanced install.  Primary fe/be, and unselected a variety of plugins01:58
superm1right01:59
superm1and just poof01:59
superm1right there?01:59
tgm4883no, it installed somethings...let me get the syslog and partman01:59
tgm4883where should i put these logs?02:01
superm1well what was the last stepthat it reached02:01
superm1so i know if they are worth looking at02:01
tgm4883Installing system, 83%, configuring mythtv02:02
superm1ooh not good.02:02
superm1okay do this02:03
superm1in that env02:03
superm1sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y02:03
superm1it will install the new ubiquity02:03
superm1make sure that doesnt happen again02:03
superm1with it02:03
tgm4883ok02:03
superm1the newer ubiquity has some other preliminary magic put in related to mysql as well02:05
superm1about copying settings from the live env in02:06
superm1if you start the frontend and want to install it02:06
tgm4883installers running again02:07
tgm4883nope, crashed as soon as it hit 83%02:09
superm1what VM are u using?02:10
tgm4883vmware-player02:10
superm1OK.  havent tried in there myself02:10
superm1only virtual box02:10
tgm4883built the machine on easyvmx.com02:10
superm1i'll have to see whats happening02:10
superm1can u pastebin the syslog?02:11
tgm4883yea02:11
superm1what do you think of the interface so far?02:11
superm1going the right direction?02:11
tgm4883looks good02:11
tgm4883few things02:11
superm1few things wrong, or few options?02:12
tgm4883the explanations of the different options dont show up in their entirety in the installer, and02:12
superm1oh no, that came back02:12
superm1for like the headings02:12
superm1at the top02:12
superm1i thought i nailed that before02:12
tgm4883what editiors do i have available to get the logs?02:13
superm1nano02:13
superm1vi02:13
superm1cat, more etc02:13
tgm4883ah02:13
superm1you can install anything in there though02:14
superm1gedit kate scite, if you need02:14
tgm4883how do i select the whole file in nano?02:14
tgm4883im use to gedit :)02:14
superm1install gedit then :)02:14
tgm4883ok, i haven't used pastebin before, but don't you just copy it in there and send?02:17
superm1paste it there02:17
superm1submit02:17
superm1and you get a url02:17
superm1which you put here02:17
tgm4883yea, not working02:17
tgm4883queryfailure02:17
superm1try another pastebin site then02:18
superm1there are dozens of them02:18
tgm4883!pastebin02:18

tgm4883http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2451202:19
superm1you said you chose a Master FE/BE right?02:20
tgm4883yea02:20
tgm4883primary02:20
superm1well i have a feeling there is a typo in there then02:21
superm1crap02:21
tgm4883yea primary backend w/ fronend.  The first option02:21
superm1where patternline is chosen02:21
tgm4883should i try a different option?02:21
superm1Yes02:22
superm1i think i know where the typo might be too02:22
tgm4883ok, its doing master backend so i don't have to look up my mysql database password02:23
superm1yup i know exactly what it is02:23
superm1wow i'm shocked that i didnt catch this before02:23
tgm4883thats what im here for ;)02:23
superm1if you do a std install, the problem wouldnt have occurred02:24
tgm4883if there is one thing im good at it is installing OS's02:24
superm1or if you do any other kind of advanced02:24
superm1thanks a lot!  very good find02:24
tgm4883np02:24
tgm4883one question, in adding another backend or frontend.  The info you need for the new machine would be your a) database password, and b) your master backend address, anything else?02:26
superm1i dont think so02:27
tgm4883yep, shot right by 83%02:27
tgm4883ok02:27
tgm4883i had an idea, but not sure it was worth it (stole it from windows anyway)02:28
superm1well shoot02:28
superm1cant hurt02:28
tgm4883figured what if we could store those settings in a file on a usb key or something, then when installing a new machine, it could grab those settings from the key instead of the user having to go get them02:29
superm1i've been trying to think how that could be implementd02:29
tgm4883would probably be a benefit for network manager users too02:29
superm1maybe a boot option, choose your device02:29
tgm4883could it be something in the myth setup that checks for that file? (similar to the windows unattended installs)02:30
superm1but where would be that standard locatoin?02:31
superm1perhaps automount flash drives02:31
tgm4883ah02:31
superm1and crawl through /media ?02:32
superm1that could be a possibility I guess02:32
tgm4883yea it could crawl though, then if none is found fall back to a default02:32
tgm4883thats what windows does I think02:32
=== tgm4883 shudders
superm1tgm4883, could you throw a spec up on launchpad for that?02:32
tgm4883i suppose02:32
superm1during the login procedure that file can be looked for in /media and parsed02:33
superm1and then if it is found, either auto start a frontend02:33
superm1or autostart ubiquity02:33
tgm4883spec == blueprint?02:35
superm1yes02:35

jetsaredimsuperm1: this whole turn on/off cli option thing is essentially the same thing as the migration-assistant option06:03
superm1right06:03
superm1--disable-migration-assistant06:03
superm1we can have --enable-mythbuntu06:03
jetsaredimor just --mythbuntu06:03
jetsaredimwhatever06:03
superm1carry on06:04
jetsaredimso06:04
jetsaredimin the gtkui file06:04
jetsaredimwe just turn off all of the pages that are relevant to mythbuntu and change the references so that going back doesn't show the pages06:05
jetsaredimthe code is all pretty much there for m-a06:05
jetsaredimjust need to adjust for the number of pages in mythbuntu install06:06
jetsaredimmake sense?06:07
superm1well i dont think that would fly with them though06:08
superm1because its still fairly invasive then06:08
superm1and other files are affected06:08
superm1like install.py06:08
superm1well i think that might be the only other "affected" file06:09
superm1install.py06:09
superm1but nonetheless06:09
jetsaredimi'll ask evan06:11
jetsaredimi'm kind of assuming that since this is a proven path that they won't have a problem with it06:12
superm1and that env variable06:13
superm1BREADCRUMB_STEPS06:13
superm1needs to be overriden too then06:13
jetsaredimyep06:13
jetsaredimlook for MIGRATION in gtkui06:13
jetsaredimthe first occurrence has that covered06:14
superm1so all of our steps are default then in their setup06:14
superm1and we remove ours when the arg isnt there06:14
jetsaredimright06:14
superm1well if they are cool with that, then awesome06:15
jetsaredimi gotta get it working first06:15
superm1:)06:15
jetsaredimdetails, details06:15
jetsaredimugh - baby crying06:16
jetsaredimhave the change to ubiquity done i think06:16
jetsaredimnow just have to put in the removal code in gtkui06:17
jetsaredimfirst thing in the morning most likely06:17
superm1it would be nice too if we implictly disable migration assistant06:17
superm1by doing this06:17
jetsaredimwe can do that too06:17
jetsaredimjust a matter of setting that env var to 106:17
jetsaredimwhich can be done in the same place we're setting our new env variable06:18
jetsaredimanyway gotta run06:18
jetsaredimbbl06:18

lagasuperm1_: i have no clue. i think man 7 debconf-devel says "Description"05:37

DaveMorrisdaviey: has the same problem with the same setup05:38
superm1_laga, you shoudn't have to manually make the DEBIAN directory05:39
maniacxsDaveMorris: so maybe you have 2 mythburn.py files one in /usr/local and one in /usr and it takes the older one from December 200605:39
superm1_or copy in the templates or .config05:39

DaveMorristhere isn't a mythbuntu package for me to assign it against06:04
superm1_spoky99, that bug has been fixed in our bzr branch though06:04
superm1_thanks for the report :)06:04
spoky99yess..06:04
lagasuperm1_: it's not showing the debconf pages. it just goes on trying to restart apache. after that, it hangs.06:05
lagasuperm1_: dpkg-reconfigure is a good call06:05
superm1_DaveMorris, got it resolved.06:06

superm1_there is another one though still that is going to bite people06:07
superm1_directly related to this one06:07
superm1_i started to fix it last night, but fell asleep before i got it done06:07
superm1_where mythtv-database isn't properly initialized06:07
lagasuperm1_: heh. dpkg-reconfigure --force will just hang after restarting apache, too06:07
spoky99what is bzr branch?06:08
lagasuperm1_: narf. actually, the template and config are not in the package.06:08
superm1_spoky99, its like svn or cvs, a versioning system06:08
lagasuperm1_: where exactly do i need to put that dh_installdebconf call?06:08
superm1_where you have it is right06:09

spoky99superm1: I finnally read your post in the endo of the bug but.. I tryed a lot of time to install mythbuntu usig a different mode06:16
spoky99also if i try to install mytbuntu in normal mode Master Backend Frontend06:17
superm1_spoky99, if you boot up the disk, and right click the desktop06:17
superm1_you can pick terminal06:17
spoky99yess06:17
superm1_and run 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y'06:17
superm1_and then that will update ubiquity to the newer version that we have06:17
spoky99the installation end whit one error (is in italian.. i try to translate)06:18
spoky99wowww06:18

lagamaniacxs: i dont have a mythtv box either at the moment ;)06:27
maniacxslaga: oh ... poor boy ;)06:27
maniacxswhat happend to your mythtv box?06:27
lagamaniacxs: it's semi-working. waiting for the fourth capture card06:27
lagamaniacxs: it's being overhauled.. well, it's been that way since 6 months now. school and GF interference06:28
maniacxslaga: yes the GF interference is harder to solve than everythin else...06:29
DaveMorrismaniacxs: I'm getting confused.  My FE gets the recordings by them been streamed from the BE06:29
maniacxsDaveMorris: mythburn gets the recordings from mythtranscode if you enabled it. but mythtranscode does not support remote streaming yet06:30
lagamaniacxs: yes, but it's also very rewarding06:30
maniacxsso you need access to the tv_record dir06:30
DaveMorrismaniacxs: thats where its going wrong then06:30
lagamaniacxs: i get a lot of leisure time from procrastinating my school studies so it's not that bad06:30
DaveMorrisso I need to network mount the tv_record dir06:30
maniacxslaga: ;) yes it is...06:30
maniacxsDaveMorris: currenty its going wrong when it tries to create a path for the file because you have (possibly) no information about the path for the FE to the recordings06:32
maniacxsif you fix the missing path issue in the settings table (e.g. using the settings menu in mythfrontend) it will crash later when trying to get the files.06:33
maniacxsor when running mythtranscode if enabled06:33
DaveMorrisok, I'll give it a go after work, thanks for the help06:33
maniacxsDaveMorris: please do this i am going to check if it is fixed in 0.20-fixes06:34
lagasuperm1_away: yay. the debconf questions show up. had the name of a template messed up somewhere in mythweb.config06:35
DaveMorrismaniacxs: it won't be for another 3 hours till I cna start to look at it06:35
maniacxsDaveMorris: do you have ssh access to the host? you can run mytharchive from cli ;) if it is possible at your work.06:37
maniacxs;)06:37
DaveMorrisI do have access yeah06:37
DaveMorrisbut I need to export everything06:37
maniacxsit seems to be fixed in 0.2106:47
DaveMorrismaniacxs: what was fixed?  In that it gives a sane error message ?06:47
maniacxs0.20-fixes still fetches the data from settings table06:48
maniacxsi have not really checked every changes. mythburn.py is a really really ugly file ;) but 0.20-fixes still needs the setting RecordFilePrefix 0.21 does not need it anymore.06:50
lagasuperm1_away: fixed a few bugs in prepareauth()06:51

lagai could put together a development box, but i don't hacve any spare usable tv tuners (bt8x8 chips don't cound)11:26
lagathat's why i'd rather use virtual machines. i don't have to get up that way.:)11:27
DaveMorriswe need a page on mythbuntu for people to donate tuner cards , gfx cards and mini-itx boards11:28
DaveMorrisoh and remotes11:28
superm1_DaveMorris, on that same helping us page11:29
superm1_contributing11:29
superm1_add a note about it11:29
superm1_that they can either help with testing, or donate / lend hardware11:30
lagait might be a good idea to make v4l-dvb snapshots available. that way, people can get bleeding edge drivers for their TV cards11:30

DaveMorrishave 2 packages then, vrl-dvb and vrl-dvb-bleeding11:31
superm1_vrl-dvb?11:31
superm1_what is vrl11:31
superm1_oh v4l-dvb11:31
superm1_haha11:31
lagathere is no separate v4l-dvb package, it gets pulled into linux before a kernel releae11:31
DaveMorrisI meant 411:31
lagarelease*11:32
DaveMorrisah11:32
lagahowever, there are lots of personal branches where individual people host improved/new drivers.11:32
lagaeg for DVB-S2 cards (dunno if some of those drivers were merged into v4l-dvb main).11:33
lagaunfortunately, putting together such a package would be a rather tedious task11:33
superm1_laga, throw a spec up about it, as the pipeline runs dry for other stuff (which will take awhile :)) we can think more into it11:33
lagak11:34
lagaanything is good as long as it prevents me from analysis11:34
superm1_i wish i had a week or two away from class and work to hammer a lot of this out11:35
superm1_its annoying only being able to work on it from 8P-1A or so while getting other stuff done at the same time11:35
DaveMorrissuperm1 you do a good job though!!11:36
lagaafter a few days of doing nothing but hacking on ubuntu stuff, you start to feel weird11:36
lagatrust me11:36
lagaDaveMorris: yup, i have to agree :)11:36
lagai'm always jealous of productive people11:36
DaveMorristeam leader on a distrubuntuion and your 2111:36
DaveMorrisYou'll have a job as a project leader yet11:37
superm1_well thanks guys :)11:37
DaveMorrisyou gone all red yet?11:37
superm1_yes, but its warm in my office, thats probably why :)11:38
DaveMorrisand this is the 1st project I've been involved with, and I feel its going well11:38
superm1_me too11:38
superm1_things are falling into place well11:38
Davieysuperm1_: working for IBM - i'm jealous of that11:38
Daviey4 more diggs until we reach 1000!!11:39
superm1_woah11:39
superm1_we're still up there???11:39
Davieynot frontpage.. :(11:40
superm1_we were second page last night yet when i went to bed11:40
Davieybut the digg page is #2 under google for 'mythbuntu'11:40
superm1_imbrandon said that we peaked at 82MB/s11:40
superm1_yesterday11:40
Davieynowonder site died11:41
Davieyi was amazed how quickly changing the linky to dl fixed it11:41
superm1_yea no kidding11:41
Davieyspeaking of that.. maybe we should change the link back11:41
superm1_a lot of people must have linked to that digg page, if its the number two hit11:42
superm1_in google11:42
superm1_for mythbuntu11:42
DaveMorrisI didn't even blog about it :)11:43
lagaspec is done11:45
DaveMorriswhats the mysql command to see the fields in a table?11:46
DaveMorrisdescribe?11:46
DaveMorrisyes it was11:46
superm1_is there a way to modify a mysql table's permissions without the server running?11:46
Davieysuperm1_: seems kinda nasty11:47
superm1_Daviey, well i'd hate to have to start mysql just for that purpose on an install before reboot11:47
superm1_and its kinda messy in that currently it is starting on live disk boot up11:47
superm1_on its own11:47
superm1_so its nasty in its own way already11:47
lagasuperm1_: you'd need to start mysqld anyways. for the BE.11:48
lagaerr11:48
lagamythtv-setup.11:48
superm1_well the current way things are going, thats not until reboot11:48
Davieyi copied the directory for mythtv on a backup once; without doing a dump.  It imported fine - but i didn't like doing it11:48
superm1_Daviey, did you feel dirty?11:48
lagai hope you did11:48
Davieyi felt very dirty11:49
Davieyhad to wash my hands11:49
superm1_well i'll keep thinking more into it.11:50
superm1_i dont want it to come down to that11:50
superm1_but the current issue is those new permissions are not activated at all for that exact reason11:50
Davieyshell script on reboot?11:51
superm1_thats another dirty hack though11:51
Davieycleaner than hacking mysql files directly imo11:51
superm1_good point11:52
superm1_well if anyone else is feeling like some ubiquity hacking tonight before i get back and wants to see what they can do11:53
Davieywhy are the permissions wrong anyway?11:53
superm1_i can point you to where it needs to be done11:53
superm1_because a new password is generated after all the files are copied over11:53
superm1_so not every mythbuntu install has the same password11:53

=== DaveMorris glad to see superm1knows about security
superm1_DaveMorris, when i first got down to setting up password settings, it dawned upon me that it was a bad idea to have all mythbuntu users with the same mysql password :)11:58
superm1_tgm4883_laptop, wrote a spec yesterday that i really like the idea of though11:58
superm1_that it can grab info from a flash drive11:58
superm1_or cd drive11:58
DavieyWould seem running mysql on live cd or post reboot might be the only way11:58
superm1_or something mounted in /media11:58
DaveMorrisurl for the lazy?11:58
tgm4883_laptopsuperm1_, apparently some of that spec is not needed11:58
Davieysuperm1_: wasn't that me that added the spec?11:58
DaveMorrisoh, they way to easily move around the database settings, and be used by the livecd11:59

Davieyoh. we might bave dup. specs then11:59
superm1_Daviey, maybe11:59
superm1_DaveMorris, yes so say you want to autostart your frontend12:00
superm1_from live cd12:00
superm1_you plug in the flash drive, put the cd in and start12:00
superm1_and then when it comes to X12:00
superm1_it automatically would start mythfrontend based on the info on the flash drive12:00
tgm4883_laptopsuperm1_, did you see the autodiscovery patch for mythfrontend?12:00
maniacxsDaveMorris: I saw your reply to the ticket. Checking in the database directly was easier for me, because i do not know where to set it in the fe. It is possible to set it in the FE or was it the mythtv-setup on the FE, too.12:00
Davieytgm4883_laptop: does it work?!12:01
DaveMorristhe other option could be for the backend to export it as nfs, and the livecd mounts it that way12:01
superm1_tgm4883_laptop, does it work?!12:01
=== tgm4883_laptop shrugs
superm1_Daviey, beat me again!12:01
tgm4883_laptopit says it works12:01
superm1_its on trunk only though right?12:01
tgm4883_laptopalthough it doesn't work for secondary backends12:01
Davieysuperm1_: don't lie - you cpied/pasted my line :)12:01
Davieydoes it just ping the subnet?12:02
DaveMorrismaniacxs: I couldn't find it on the frontend, it maybe in mythtv-setup12:02
tgm4883_laptopi talked with the guys over at mythtv-users, aparently it acts as a upnp frontend12:02
superm1_or use avahi?12:02
tgm4883_laptopi have the convo over at my desktop12:02
tgm4883_laptopalthough we didn't get into that too much as i just wanted to know if it also worked for a backend12:02
maniacxsgood night12:03
superm1_well if that patch really works, that'd be awesome to put on ubuntu12:03
superm1_so that we can detect backends that easily12:03
Davieyand mount samba/nfs :)12:03
tgm4883_laptophttp://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/3293 for those who haven't seen it12:03
DaveMorrisI'd say share the databse config file via nfs12:03
DaveMorrisand mount it, rather than using usbsticks12:04
superm1_why hasnt it been touched upon in the last 2 months i wonder12:04
tgm4883_laptopI figure with that, and probably the low likelyhood of people adding secondary backends, it makes the spec i wrote either low priority or no priority12:05
tgm4883_laptopmaybe because "The code in the patch is completely functional, and only needs cosmetic changes" ?12:05
Davieyhow many people using mythbuntu will have secondary backends?12:05
superm1_"With this patch, the frontend starts to participate in the UPnP protocol as a AVMediaRenderer. A full implementation at this time would make the patch too complex. If this, or a modified version of this patch gets committed, I will add the remaining classes to stub out all services needed for a fully compliant UPnP Renderer. (However, this patch does make the frontend a discoverable device)."12:05
superm1_that is what sticks out to me12:05
tgm4883_laptopDaviey, not many i figure12:05
superm1_the frontend performs a lot differently then12:05
DaveMorrishttps://blueprints.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+spec/disklessfrontend <- what you guys think?12:06
DavieyDaveMorris: sounds good12:06
superm1_DaveMorris, ooh that can get complex to put into an installer12:06
lagaDaveMorris: that'd be great, although complex. there are a few packages out there that'll simplify such a task.12:06
lagamaybe we can use the LTSP stuff12:06
Davieyalthough not sure it should be part of ubiquity12:06
Davieysuperm1_: grr!12:06
superm1_laga, what it really comes down to is just exporting a NFSROOT for the install12:07
DaveMorrisyeah, it wouldn't be in the installer, the installer would pull the packages down for it12:07
lagasuperm1_: ooh, what about PXE, etherboot, dhcpd? :'(12:08
superm1_well you dont have to go that route12:08
DavieyDaveMorris: maybe part of mythbuntu control centre :)12:08
superm1_flash card12:08
superm1_sd/compact flash12:08
superm1_that has the kernel12:08
lagasuperm1_: that's no fun12:08
Davieykernel can just as easily be dl from pxe12:08
lagait took me ages to figure out netbooting :)12:08
DaveMorrisPXE asks the dhcped server for where to download from12:08
superm1_same with mine12:08
superm1_but most routers wont tell that info12:09
DaveMorrisand you can have more than one dhcp server on a network12:09
superm1_how do you make that second server non authoritative?12:09
superm1_but still give out the info12:09
DavieyDaveMorris: Not if configured both as primary12:09
DaveMorrisyou can tell the backend one to only answer PXE requests12:09
DaveMorrisI belive anyway12:09
lagasuperm1_: it can be done, AFAIK12:09
Davieycool, maybe thats a gutsy+0.512:10
DaveMorriswell it would def be a bouns over the other distros12:10
superm1_DaveMorris, do you have a copy of the latest iso and the old one handy?12:10
superm1_can you try that rsync trick?12:10
Davieydiff sync?12:10

superm1_DaveMorris, haven't generated a new one as of yet.  want that db problem fixed first12:12
superm1_and i've got a firmware page that needs cleanup yet too12:12
Davieyi had an idea.. 'check latest' and if plausiable apt-get upgrade on livecd ? :)12:12
DaveMorristhen I can't rsync the diffs ;)12:12
