DaveMorrissuperm1: is the ISO gonna be fix for tomorrow?12:39
DaveMorrishttp://greenacre.no-ip.com/dave/stuff/complete-manual.pdf <-- latest build of the manual for those interested12:40
superm1DaveMorris, i should hopefully have it fixed today :)12:40
superm1i think i finally identified why debconf hates me12:40
DaveMorriswell its bed time, so tomorrow ;)12:40
superm1ah okay12:40
superm1night then12:41
DaveMorrisPM me with any other areas I should talk about in the manual12:41
superm1ok12:41
DaveMorrisI might talk about hardare requirements somehwere12:42
superm1that would be pretty good12:42
superm1its just difficult to describe such things12:42
superm1because it works on many ranges12:42
superm1okay majoridiot, i've got what should work here - but an ISO needs to be generated to verify.  so i'm going to scp this stuff to pegasus and kick off the ISO build12:52
superm1in the interim12:52
superm1can you boot a live disk with the ati card and another with the nvidia card in12:52
majoridiotk.  lemme know.12:52
superm1and send me the xorg.conf's that you get generated12:52
majoridioti can do it each way, yes.12:52
superm1I want to make sure the same things are getting generated pre-install here12:53
superm1because it appears that it doesn't want to use anything but the vesa driver on all the machines i've tried12:53
majoridioti'll install each way12:53
majoridiotnvidia first, since that's what is there right now.12:53
superm1well no need for an install12:53
superm1just boot it12:53
superm1and in live mode12:54
superm1paste the xorg.conf at a pastebin12:54
superm1!pastebin12:54
superm1like that12:54
ubotupastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)12:54
superm1and i'll compare with what i've been seeing12:54
majoridiotk... if i'm just booting, where will i find the xorg.conf?12:55
superm1/etc/X1112:55
majoridiot(never booted mythbuntu yet)12:55
superm1well a regular ubuntu disk12:55
superm1sorry should have specified12:55
superm1i wanted to compare what a regular feisty live disk12:55
superm1generates compared to a mythbuntu disk12:55
superm1for the xorg.conf12:55
superm1and make sure that they are the same12:55
=== majoridiot is now confused
superm1haha12:55
superm1just grab a 7.04 normal feisty gnomified disk12:56
superm1and boot that12:56
superm1while your in live mode, take a look at the xorg.conf it used12:56
superm1and when the new buntu ISO finishes generating, the two can be compared12:56
superm1 s/buntu/mythbuntu/12:57
majoridiotk.12:57
majoridiotno need to swap out the hd then.12:57
superm1right not yet at least12:57
majoridiotnp12:57
majoridiotk... going to generate that info now.01:17
majoridiotbiab01:17

majoridiotsuperm1: ati- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26946/01:45
=== majoridiot goes off to cook some noodles
superm1ah interesting01:45
superm1OK.  The ISO generation is still running.  i'll ping as soon as its done01:45
superm1majoridiot, http://mythbuntu.org/files/iso/mythbuntu-7.10~070623-i386.iso02:00
=== majoridiot is munching some noodles... :)
majoridiotnice speed :)02:01
superm1hopefully things work with this one :)02:01
majoridiotwhat do you want me to try?02:02
superm1install with an nvidia card02:02
superm1and see if it detects your proprietary driver02:02
superm1preferably if you can install and activate tv out during install02:02
superm1(it is activated on the next boot)02:03
majoridiotk02:03
majoridiotchecking for defects... it looks *VERY* nice :D02:13
superm1man you beat me to the download :)02:13
majoridiotand the burn02:13
majoridiot:P02:13
superm1i started it 35 sec before telling you02:13
=== jono [n=jono@ubuntu/member/jono] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
superm1thinking i'd beat you...02:13
majoridioti got it avg 1100Kbps02:14
superm1woah02:14
superm1okay i got around 50002:14
majoridiots'why i said "nice speed"02:14
superm1now i'm hoping that the installer doesn't segfault upon opening02:15
superm1if nothing happens when you double clikc it let me know02:15
majoridiot235+ copies have seeded from my box :)02:15
superm1there is an annoying glib bug that I'm attempting to workaround02:15
majoridiothm. burn errors.02:16
superm1well dont trust that actually02:17
superm1i think the way its calculated is wrong02:17
superm1on mythbuntu atm02:17
majoridiotk02:17
superm1i havent looked much into it02:17
rogue780superm1, has that sata bug been resolved yet?02:17
superm1no new kernel releases, so i dont think so02:17
majoridiotok... going to swap out drives and try an install.02:17
majoridiotbiab02:17
superm1rogue780, do u remember the bug number i posted?02:17
superm1majoridiot, pull any extra drives out too02:17
rogue780superm1, lemme look at the log02:18
superm1i noticed that grub likes to write on the mbr of drives02:18
majoridiotrougue780: the gfx look TITS, thus far!02:18
rogue780majoridiot, thanks, I'm working on a slightly better one atm02:18

superm1rogue780, i'd say subscribe to that bug02:20
superm1and you'll hear once its fixed02:20
superm1and i can generate a new ISO for it then02:21
rogue780sweet02:23
superm1majoridiot, you didnt start install yet did you?02:34
superm1i see something that needs to be changed02:34
superm1before you start it02:34
superm1your going to have to open a terminal and edit a file to take out a line (because I didn't commit one change I forgot about)02:36
superm1/usr/lib/ubiquity/mythbuntu/mythbuntu-apply02:36
superm1you need to take out the line that says "update-rc.d samba defaults"02:36
majoridiotalready started it.02:38
majoridiot(double-click on install was dificult)02:38
superm1okay before it gets to 83 percent02:38
superm1you have to edit this file then02:38
superm1otherwise it will fail02:38
majoridiotok... i caught it.02:42
majoridiotpain in the ass...02:42
majoridiot:P02:42
superm1haha02:42
superm1well i didn't realize my commit back to bzr didn't include samba installation yet02:42

majoridiotsuperm1: major ubiquity crashes at the end of installation02:49
majoridiottraceback is quite a list02:49
superm1argh. really?02:49
majoridiotdo i need to note by hand for you?02:49
superm1at what percent02:49
majoridiotat the very end... sec.02:49
superm1did it detect the video card correctly when you checked the proprietary driver button?02:50
superm1oh something about configure_services()?02:50
majoridiotyes02:51
majoridiot@ 94%02:51
superm1okay i've got a few more things to put in yet then02:51

superm1didn't realize that code would actually get called02:51
superm1did nvidia get detected during install thou?02:52
majoridiotself.configure_services()02:52
majoridiotno attribute configure_services02:52
majoridiotshall i continue on if possible?02:52
superm1at this point no.  i've got a few other odds and ends that i'll fix first02:52
majoridiotit asked if i wanted the prop driver and let me select tv-out, etc. so i think so.02:53
majoridioteverything looked ok until the crash @ 94%02:53
=== majoridiot goes to put the server back together so he can watch tv
superm1okay thanks majoridiot02:54
superm1i'll let you know if i get another build worthwhile testing tonight02:54
