| tazgodx | so, anyone use a HD card? | 04:49 |
|---|---|---|
| tgm4883_laptop | yep | 04:49 |
| tgm4883_laptop | i just have all the answers for you tonight | 04:49 |
| CBiLL | anyone here use UIRT USB IR?> | 04:49 |
| tazgodx | lol | 04:50 |
| CBiLL | tgm4883_laptop : you do? ok what the meaning of life? | 04:50 |
| tazgodx | do you have to get a HD antenna? or can you use a STB? | 04:50 |
| tazgodx | CBiLL: 42 | 04:50 |
| CBiLL | wow what I am now | 04:50 |
| CBiLL | cool | 04:50 |
| CBiLL | thanks! | 04:50 |
| tazgodx | :) | 04:50 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Well, the meaning of life is #$*(@(*@&%*%@@)$>......BUFFER OVERFLOW ERROR | 04:51 |
| tgm4883_laptop | tazgodx, where do you live? | 04:51 |
| tazgodx | NW burbs of chicago | 04:51 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ok | 04:51 |
| tgm4883_laptop | then you can stream via firewire if you want | 04:52 |
| tazgodx | firewire from my STB? | 04:52 |
| tgm4883_laptop | there are a couple options for you | 04:52 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yes | 04:52 |
| tazgodx | so i don't need a HD TV tuner? | 04:52 |
| tgm4883_laptop | nope | 04:53 |
| tazgodx | wow | 04:53 |
| tgm4883_laptop | although there are a few problems with doing it, most notably that if the channels are broadcast poorly, then it wont record that channel | 04:54 |
| tgm4883_laptop | but it does allow you to get some other channels that would be otherwise unavailable to just a regular HD card (ie the pcHDTV 5500) | 04:54 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I stream over firewire and have a pcHDTV 5500 | 04:54 |
| tazgodx | yeah, i was looking into the pcHDTV 5500 | 04:54 |
| tgm4883_laptop | dont get it | 04:55 |
| tgm4883_laptop | :) | 04:55 |
| tazgodx | no? | 04:55 |
| tgm4883_laptop | actually, i love my 5500, but if I had to do it again, I would get the HDHomerun for $30 more as it has 2 HD tuners | 04:55 |
| tgm4883_laptop | the 5500 works great, I would just prefer the 2nd HD tuner | 04:56 |
| tazgodx | hmmm, and do i just plug those straight into the wall jack? or do i need an antenna for each one of the tuners? | 04:56 |
| === dooder [n=nate@c-24-21-143-145.hsd1.mn.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv | ||
| tgm4883_laptop | who is your cable provider? | 04:56 |
| tazgodx | comcast | 04:56 |
| tgm4883_laptop | sweet | 04:56 |
| dooder | alright. quesiton that I'm sure has been answered but I can't find it. What are people doing without zap2it? | 04:57 |
| tgm4883_laptop | well comcast in my area broadcasts the local HD channels over the wire (whether I had the HD channels or not) | 04:57 |
| tgm4883_laptop | dooder, schedules direct | 04:57 |
| tgm4883_laptop | !schedulesdirect | 04:57 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about schedulesdirect - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:57 |
| tgm4883_laptop | arg, stupid ubotu | 04:57 |
| tgm4883_laptop | schedules direct offers the channel lineups for $15/6 months | 04:58 |
| dooder | tgm4883_laptop : is that in the package or will I need a custom build? | 04:58 |
| tgm4883_laptop | you will have to upgrade to mythtv .20.2, which is in the feisty-updates repo, the edgy-updates repo, gutsy universe repo, and a 3rd party dapper repo | 04:59 |
| tgm4883_laptop | if you are using breezy i can't help you | 04:59 |
| dooder | cool | 04:59 |
| dooder | I'm using knoppmyth right now | 04:59 |
| dooder | so I think I have to redo my setup this weekend | 04:59 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ah | 05:00 |
| tazgodx | ok here is a weird question, if i record an HD program, can i stream to a SDTV frontend? | 05:00 |
| tgm4883_laptop | tazgodx, i believe it would just have the bars at the top and bottom, but it should work fine | 05:00 |
| tgm4883_laptop | providing the computer can handle it | 05:01 |
| tgm4883_laptop | dooder, are you planning on using feisty or gutsy, (or mythbuntu)? | 05:01 |
| tazgodx | all the processor power is on the backend when playing HD right? | 05:01 |
| tgm4883_laptop | no | 05:01 |
| tgm4883_laptop | in fact | 05:01 |
| tgm4883_laptop | recording HD takes almost no extra power | 05:02 |
| tgm4883_laptop | other than writing extra data | 05:02 |
| tazgodx | hmmm | 05:02 |
| tgm4883_laptop | what specs? | 05:02 |
| tazgodx | well my P4 can handle HD im pretty sure | 05:02 |
| CBiLL | well that sucks | 05:02 |
| tgm4883_laptop | processor speeD? | 05:02 |
| tgm4883_laptop | and video card? | 05:03 |
| tazgodx | im ont 100% on the specs, im actually useing my sisters, and my dads old computers for my mythtv setups :) | 05:03 |
| CBiLL | if you set up a lirc with no conf .. mode2 should work to test it right? | 05:03 |
| tgm4883_laptop | not sure CBILL | 05:03 |
| CBiLL | hrmmm | 05:03 |
| tazgodx | is there a command to type in terminal to find processor speed and vid card? | 05:03 |
| CBiLL | how does one test lirc first to see if ir reciever is working? | 05:03 |
| tgm4883_laptop | cat /proc/cpuinfo | 05:04 |
| tgm4883_laptop | and lspci | 05:04 |
| tgm4883_laptop | and put that in | 05:04 |
| tgm4883_laptop | !pastebin | 05:04 |
| ubotu | pastebin 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) | 05:04 |
| tazgodx | GeForce FX 5200 | 05:05 |
| tazgodx | and 1.8Ghz P4 | 05:05 |
| tgm4883_laptop | have you played HD on it before? | 05:05 |
| tazgodx | can't use paste bin, thats my other computer that isn't on the net yet | 05:05 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ah | 05:06 |
| tazgodx | nope, was hoping to test it out | 05:06 |
| tgm4883_laptop | FYI, wireless G isn't fast enough for HD | 05:06 |
| tgm4883_laptop | and im not sure that computer is either | 05:06 |
| tazgodx | oh, maybe i won't do HD than :( | 05:07 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I could almost* do HD with an athlon XP 2200+ and a geforce 5500 with XvMC activated | 05:07 |
| tazgodx | everytime i activated XvMC my video would just go out...i don't use that option anymore | 05:08 |
| tgm4883_laptop | did you edit the necessary file? | 05:09 |
| tazgodx | i need to find anohter TV tuner tho. one jsut isn't enough | 05:09 |
| tazgodx | i believe so....but not sure | 05:09 |
| tgm4883_laptop | what do you have now? | 05:10 |
| tazgodx | PVR-350 | 05:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ah | 05:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | i like my pvr-150 | 05:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | good card | 05:10 |
| tazgodx | yeah, i was thinking about a few 150's | 05:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | or a pvr-500 | 05:10 |
| tazgodx | the only thing the 350 had that i wanted was the remote :) | 05:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | 2 pvr-150's in one | 05:10 |
| tazgodx | only need one of them | 05:10 |
| tazgodx | maybe ill look into the 500 | 05:11 |
| tgm4883_laptop | don't they all come with the same remote? | 05:11 |
| tazgodx | i don't think the 150 comes with a remote | 05:11 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I use the MCEUSB2 remote and love it | 05:11 |
| tgm4883_laptop | the 150 does come with a remote | 05:11 |
| tgm4883_laptop | there is also a MCE model of the hauppauge line and I don't think they come with remotes | 05:12 |
| tazgodx | hmm, maybe i was mistaken | 05:12 |
| tgm4883_laptop | and you could also use a serial ir receiver and any remote | 05:12 |
| tazgodx | is the best way to plug all these tuners in splitters? | 05:12 |
| tazgodx | i have a serial IR blaster, so i can attempt to use my STB....i have yet to get that working | 05:13 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I think so, you may need a booster depending on how many splits and the qualilty of the signal | 05:13 |
| tgm4883_laptop | another benefit of firewire. Changes channels on the STB over firewire | 05:14 |
| tazgodx | does the firewire only work with HD? or can i watch any channel with that? | 05:14 |
| tgm4883_laptop | any channel | 05:14 |
| tgm4883_laptop | although im not a fan of analog over firewire | 05:15 |
| tazgodx | haha, well you said my PC can't handle HD. so im not gonna try that... | 05:15 |
| tazgodx | there is a guy on ebay selling a PVR-500 buy it now for $110 | 05:16 |
| tgm4883_laptop | heh, im not sure what those cost. I haven't bought any tuners in a while | 05:16 |
| tazgodx | they are going for 120-200 from other people | 05:17 |
| tazgodx | tigerdirect has it for 150 | 05:18 |
| tgm4883_laptop | 163 with MCE remote http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=202151598&SearchEngine=PriceGrabber&SearchTerm=202151598&Type=PE&Category=Comp&dcaid=15890 | 05:19 |
| tgm4883_laptop | 125 without | 05:19 |
| tazgodx | i see 139 without | 05:20 |
| CBiLL | be warn samsung tuner quaity isn't that great on pvr 500 | 05:21 |
| CBiLL | phillips are better | 05:21 |
| tgm4883_laptop | http://www.mwave.com/mwave/skusearch.hmx?SCriteria=3625260&CartID=done&nextloc= | 05:21 |
| tazgodx | is the 1600 good? | 05:22 |
| tazgodx | http://www.buy.com/prod/hauppauge-wintv-hvr-1600-hybrid-video-recorder-pci-atsc/q/loc/101/204026199.html | 05:22 |
| tgm4883_laptop | eh, i dont know if the 1600 has linux support yet | 05:22 |
| tazgodx | dang, for $90 i would buy that jsut for my analog | 05:23 |
| tazgodx | lol | 05:23 |
| tgm4883_laptop | google mythtv hvr-1600 and find out :) | 05:23 |
| tazgodx | nope, no linux support yet | 05:30 |
| tazgodx | guess im getting hte PVR-500 sometime soon | 05:33 |

| tgm4883_laptop | what tuners? | 05:36 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | hauppauge 500 | 05:36 |

| MythbuntuGuest37 | mythbuntu, freshly installed | 05:37 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmm, strange | 05:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | does lspci show the card? | 05:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | at first I thought it was a perms issue, but when I tried chmod the files just weren't there | 05:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | the ivtv modules are loaded | 05:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | does dmesg give you any indicators? | 05:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I always forget to dmesg, let me check | 05:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | error initializing firmware | 05:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I guess I should fix that | 05:40 |
| tgm4883_laptop | did you md5sum the iso and verify the cd before install? | 05:40 |
| tazgodx | anyone know of a CATV splitter and booster in one? | 05:40 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | no, I guess I could do that now | 05:40 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | it would give me some indication | 05:41 |
| tgm4883_laptop | tazgodx, yea, there are lots | 05:41 |
| tgm4883_laptop | check radioshack | 05:41 |

| MythbuntuGuest37 | disc is fine | 05:55 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I know there are some steps you sometimes need to take with firmware for these decoders | 05:56 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I'll see if I can find some docs | 05:56 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | thanks for your help, tgm | 05:56 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yea but not the pvr-500 | 05:56 |
| tgm4883_laptop | that should be in the kernel | 05:56 |
| tgm4883_laptop | did you do a apt-get update | 05:57 |

| === MythbuntuGuest23 is now known as redsix | ||
| tgm4883_laptop | hi | 06:05 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I avoided the upgrade because it was going to be 188 pkgs | 06:06 |
| redsix | how can you use the install disc, but grab the latest packages for install instead of having to update afwrwards? | 06:06 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | is there a way to test for closer, faster mirrors? | 06:06 |
| tgm4883_laptop | what mirror are you using? | 06:06 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | mainly umn.edu | 06:07 |
| tgm4883_laptop | where do you live? | 06:07 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I'm using gutsy, so maybe that's my only option | 06:07 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | Calgary, AB Canada | 06:08 |
| tgm4883_laptop | is there a mirror that you usually use? | 06:08 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I'll know it when I see it | 06:09 |
| tgm4883_laptop | heh | 06:09 |
| tgm4883_laptop | that would sort of be the problem | 06:09 |
| tgm4883_laptop | as i can't tell you which one to put in | 06:09 |
| tgm4883_laptop | unless it's ca.archives.ubuntu.com | 06:09 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I can still run synaptic in mythbuntu, no? | 06:14 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yes | 06:14 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | well, I went and started it as it was | 06:14 |

| Aval0n | I used nvidia-settings to d/l it | 06:27 |
| Aval0n | anyone know? | 06:27 |
| === tgm4883_laptop shrugs | ||
| itzac | might /proc be a better place to go looking for that info? | 06:28 |
| Aval0n | itzac you talkin to me? | 06:28 |
| itzac | yes | 06:28 |
| Aval0n | you think it will have the correct info there? | 06:29 |
| Aval0n | so far i've had 0 success getting my PDP to display anything over 1280x720 | 06:29 |
| Aval0n | via hdmi | 06:29 |
| itzac | if it's there it should be correct | 06:29 |
| Aval0n | I don't see anything there that looks like display info | 06:29 |
| itzac | unfortunately it won't be that easy | 06:30 |

| itzac | nvidia card? | 06:30 |
| Aval0n | yes | 06:31 |

| Aval0n | with a 0 | 06:32 |

| CBiLL | I been having bad flickering problem in my mythtv so I played back /dev/video0 to mplayer and same thing | 07:01 |
| CBiLL | any idea what may be causing it? | 07:01 |
| itzac | nvidia driver? | 07:01 |
| CBiLL | don't think it the graphic | 07:02 |
| itzac | are you using cable or dvb or something else? | 07:03 |
| CBiLL | pvr500 | 07:03 |
| itzac | did you pick the right freq table? | 07:03 |
| CBiLL | freq table? | 07:03 |
| itzac | during myth-setup, you have to choose a fequency table | 07:04 |
| CBiLL | ok | 07:04 |
| CBiLL | checking | 07:04 |
| CBiLL | but this flickering shows up in mplayer | 07:04 |
| CBiLL | us-cable | 07:05 |
| itzac | that's probably right | 07:05 |
| CBiLL | hrmmm I had it on us-bcast | 07:05 |

| CBiLL | flicker still there | 07:07 |
| redsix | hi, i am having problems with the VNC part of mythbuntu, anyone else have problems in this area | 07:07 |
| itzac | does your directTV box have an S-video out? | 07:07 |
| CBiLL | damn it haven't gone away | 07:07 |
| itzac | the other thing I can think of is to check the flicker-filter setting in nvidia-settings | 07:09 |
| itzac | make sure it's set to 5 | 07:09 |
| redsix | What's CBill trying to do? | 07:09 |
| itzac | or whatever the max is | 07:09 |
| CBiLL | stop the flickering | 07:10 |
| itzac | eliminate flicker | 07:10 |
| redsix | oh | 07:10 |
| CBiLL | it comes and goes | 07:10 |
| redsix | intel or amd box? | 07:10 |
| itzac | it could be noise in your composite cable | 07:10 |
| CBiLL | intel | 07:10 |
| redsix | o | 07:10 |
| redsix | i use amd with directv box... | 07:11 |

| itzac | turn it all the way up | 07:13 |
| CBiLL | 255 max | 07:13 |

| redsix | what resolution are you sending to the TV? | 07:14 |
| CBiLL | can't remember but it flickering on monitor too | 07:15 |
| CBiLL | flickering still | 07:15 |
| CBiLL | thing is | 07:15 |
| CBiLL | I don't think it the resolution | 07:15 |
| redsix | is it refresh rate? | 07:15 |
| CBiLL | mplayer /dev/video0 is showing the same flickering in mplayer | 07:15 |
| redsix | oh | 07:15 |
| CBiLL | and it say video buffer overun problem | 07:16 |
| redsix | i would try s-video capture fromt the STB instead of composite | 07:16 |
| CBiLL | hrmm | 07:16 |
| CBiLL | ok let me swap cable around | 07:17 |
| CBiLL | no can't do it | 07:17 |
| CBiLL | forgot I dont have spare s video cuz my video card only have s video out | 07:17 |
| CBiLL | and using it | 07:17 |
| redsix | k | 07:17 |
| CBiLL | well I can check flickering on the computer monitor | 07:17 |
| CBiLL | brb | 07:17 |
| CBiLL | swapping cable | 07:17 |
| itzac | tgm, the firmware didn't get copied to the right folder | 07:20 |
| itzac | downloaded latest firmware and copied there, ivtv loaded properly | 07:20 |
| CBiLL | swapped | 07:21 |
| redsix | anyone know of a card that captures component input? | 07:21 |
| CBiLL | pvr500 | 07:21 |
| CBiLL | which I am using now =P | 07:21 |
| redsix | you mean composite right? | 07:22 |
| CBiLL | oh brain fart! | 07:22 |
| CBiLL | lol yeah | 07:22 |
| CBiLL | hrmmm can't caputre s video | 07:22 |
| CBiLL | brb | 07:22 |
| redsix | will have to run mythtv-setup again to select the svideo source | 07:23 |
| CBiLL | I did | 07:23 |
| CBiLL | to svideo | 07:23 |
| CBiLL | do I have to set directv to use it out? | 07:23 |
| CBiLL | or it already should have video out on svideo? | 07:23 |
| CBiLL | let me check from box to tv | 07:23 |
| redsix | the directv box should already send a signal out on the svideo port | 07:25 |
| CBiLL | yeah it is | 07:25 |
| CBiLL | checking my setting | 07:25 |
| redsix | then change #2 option in mythtv-setup i believe it is to set the svideo on the card for capture | 07:26 |
| CBiLL | I did hrmm | 07:26 |
| redsix | and no video? | 07:27 |
| CBiLL | do I have to run mythfilldatabase again? | 07:27 |
| CBiLL | just want to get video not worrying about the EPG | 07:27 |
| redsix | shouldn'thave to | 07:27 |
| CBiLL | ok checking my cables | 07:27 |

| redsix | oh... must be ivtv then | 07:32 |

| CBiLL | no flickers in windows | 07:36 |
| redsix | k | 07:37 |
| redsix | how you change channels on your STB? | 07:37 |
| CBiLL | haven't be able to yet with MythTV | 07:37 |
| CBiLL | but on SageTV I use UIRT-USB | 07:37 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Aval0n, yes it is | 07:37 |
| CBiLL | aimed at the STB | 07:37 |
| redsix | your stb has the USB port? | 07:37 |
| CBiLL | no | 07:37 |
| redsix | on the back? | 07:38 |
| CBiLL | it tranmist IR | 07:38 |
| CBiLL | yes it have USB on back | 07:38 |
| CBiLL | can that be use with mythtv? | 07:38 |
| CBiLL | just wondering | 07:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | no | 07:38 |
| redsix | What box you have? | 07:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | most likely it is not activated | 07:38 |
| CBiLL | let me look | 07:38 |
| redsix | yes it can | 07:38 |
| redsix | i change with the USB port on the back of my h20-100 | 07:39 |
| Aval0n | anyone know why xvmc would make the OSD shitty and grey | 07:39 |
| Aval0n | :) | 07:39 |
| CBiLL | it does not say on box | 07:39 |
| redsix | flip the door open on the front | 07:39 |
| CBiLL | ok | 07:39 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Aval0n, cause that is what it does :) | 07:40 |
| redsix | should say MFR or MFG | 07:40 |
| CBiLL | D11 | 07:40 |
| redsix | yup you can change with USB on D11 | 07:40 |
| CBiLL | nice on MythTV? | 07:40 |
| redsix | yes | 07:40 |
| Aval0n | tgm it's supposed to make the osd look grey?! | 07:40 |
| CBiLL | ok brb going to get a shorter svideo cable | 07:40 |
| Aval0n | why the heck would it purposly do that? | 07:41 |
| redsix | http://www.patersontech.com/products/UsbTvTranslator.aspx | 07:41 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Aval0n, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/Install/WhatNext/Feisty#head-81c5ddee6432b0f30137b63a25595a9a927a7461 | 07:41 |
| tazgodx | anyone know how to set up a wireless card for gusty? | 07:41 |
| tgm4883_laptop | For all cards, go to Utilities/Setup in the frontend. Choose Setup and then TV Settings and then Playback. Change the Preferred MPEG2 Decoder to be Standard XvMC. Restart your frontend app to ensure that /etc/X11/XvMCConfig is sourced and attempt to play back a file. You will notice the grey OSD rather then the normal color OSD. | 07:41 |
| redsix | CBill, my link is for the TV translator you can use it to change channels on the D11 from mythtv | 07:42 |
| Aval0n | tgm I did all that | 07:42 |
| redsix | it is a serial to usb connector | 07:42 |
| tgm4883_laptop | notice the last sentance | 07:42 |
| redsix | and you need to get the directv.pl channel changing script (google it) | 07:43 |
| Aval0n | what the heck | 07:43 |
| redsix | save the script down, make it executable and then change the script to reflect "box type" of D11 | 07:44 |
| Aval0n | so there is no way of fixing the OSD color? | 07:44 |
| CBiLL | testing | 07:44 |
| redsix | and set the channel changing script in mythtv-setup to the script | 07:44 |
| CBiLL | good I didn't disconnect myself | 07:44 |
| CBiLL | tripped over my router lol | 07:44 |
| Aval0n | i just changed the xvmc driver to the nvidia one | 07:45 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Aval0n http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/XvMC#Greyscale_OSD_.28NVidia_4_.26_5.29 | 07:45 |
| Aval0n | with the default I still got color OSD | 07:45 |
| CBiLL | thanks for link .. saving it | 07:45 |
| Aval0n | well I have a 7300 | 07:45 |
| Aval0n | so I'm sol I guess eh? | 07:45 |
| CBiLL | easy project | 07:45 |
| tgm4883_laptop | you could always ask over in #mythtv-users | 07:45 |
| redsix | I wished there was a way to capture component video or a transcoder from component to hd coax | 07:45 |
| CBiLL | I even got that adapter .. I am a tinker man and tinker lot of stuffs | 07:46 |
| redsix | cool | 07:46 |
| CBiLL | nope | 07:46 |
| tgm4883_laptop | redsix, component capture cards are too expensive | 07:46 |
| CBiLL | 6 feet s-video still flickers | 07:46 |
| redsix | i knows | 07:46 |
| Aval0n | thanks tgm | 07:46 |
| redsix | tgm, i capture s-video 720x480, not bad, but still not hd... | 07:47 |
| tgm4883_laptop | agreed, that is nice, but only dvd spec | 07:47 |
| CBiLL | going to try second 2 video on the card .. I hope that doesn't fix it cuz then I got a bad card | 07:47 |
| redsix | tgm, you have cable or a dishh service? | 07:48 |
| tgm4883_laptop | cable | 07:48 |
| redsix | US? | 07:48 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yep | 07:48 |
| redsix | what area | 07:48 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Oregon | 07:48 |
| redsix | lol, other side of the nation | 07:48 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yep | 07:49 |
| Aval0n | tgm if I use libXvMC.so.1 | 07:49 |
| Aval0n | instead of the nvidia one it's color | 07:49 |
| Aval0n | odly | 07:49 |
| Aval0n | =/ | 07:49 |
| CBiLL | white screen on second s-video hrmmp | 07:49 |

| CBiLL | this is exactly the same problem I am having http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3374918 | 08:23 |
| CBiLL | those flickerings | 08:24 |
| superm1 | that is a bad example picture because you can't capture an entire frame since its interlaced | 08:24 |
| CBiLL | it the black lines I am expereincing | 08:25 |
| CBiLL | and the flickering on fast action movies | 08:25 |
| CBiLL | or scrolling credits a the end of the movie | 08:25 |
| superm1 | well the best i can offer is recommending you to mess out with deinterlacing filters | 08:26 |
| CBiLL | superm1 : Mythtv-setup should be showing 2 capture unit #1 and Unit #2 if pvr 500 was installed? | 08:26 |
| superm1 | kernel and bobdeint are the way to go | 08:26 |
| superm1 | yeah | 08:26 |
| CBiLL | yeah I am only showing 1 | 08:26 |
| CBiLL | just unit #1 | 08:26 |
| CBiLL | so something is not right then | 08:26 |
| CBiLL | modprobe show both | 08:27 |
| CBiLL | strange | 08:27 |
| superm1 | well do you have a /dev/video0 and /dev/video1? | 08:27 |

| CBiLL | what was the commadn to update | 10:40 |
| CBiLL | sudo apt-get update | 10:40 |
| CBiLL | right? | 10:40 |
| laga | yes | 10:41 |
| laga | and sudo apt-get upgrade afterwards | 10:41 |
| laga | might be better to use sudo aptitude dist-upgrade for gutsy now | 10:41 |
| CBiLL | hrmm | 10:42 |
| CBiLL | at the upgrade now | 10:42 |
| CBiLL | hrmmp | 10:42 |
| CBiLL | also to upgrade the control centre? | 10:42 |
| CBiLL | sudo apt-get update mytbuntu-control-centre was it? | 10:43 |
| laga | no | 10:43 |
| laga | upgrade or dist-upgrade upgrades everything | 10:43 |
| CBiLL | oh ok cool | 10:43 |
| CBiLL | thanks | 10:43 |
| directhex|work | "apt-get" is a slightly older package manager. you could try "aptitude" instead | 10:43 |
| laga | aptitude is a bit smarter when it comes to handling dependency problems AFAIK | 10:43 |
| directhex|work | "$foomanager update" updates the local list of available packages and versions | 10:43 |
| CBiLL | I see | 10:43 |
| CBiLL | so i sould sudo aptitude upgrade then? | 10:44 |
| directhex|work | "foomanager upgrade" upgrades all installed apps to the newest versions the system knows about, without altering installed apps | 10:44 |
| CBiLL | well it downloading shall I cancel it? | 10:44 |
| directhex|work | "$foomanager dist-upgrade" upgrades all installed apps to the newest versions the system knows about, including uninstalling old things and installing new things where neccessary to do a proper upgrade, in cases where dependencies change | 10:44 |
| CBiLL | mythbuntu-lirc-generator | 10:50 |
| CBiLL | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 10:50 |
| CBiLL | craps | 10:50 |
| laga | there should be more output. | 10:51 |
| CBiLL | nope that it | 10:52 |
| CBiLL | oh well doing the sudo aptitude dist-upgrade now | 10:52 |
| CBiLL | I had the same thing yesterday | 10:52 |
| CBiLL | and it locked up my mythtv | 10:52 |
| CBiLL | so I had to completely reinstall lol | 10:52 |
| CBiLL | no error this time | 10:56 |
| CBiLL | cool | 10:56 |
| laga | :) | 10:57 |
| CBiLL | rebooting now | 10:57 |
| CBiLL | I think I may found the answer to my flickering problme | 10:57 |

| CBiLL | direct record of my flickering problem | 10:59 |
| CBiLL | look like control centre is broken | 10:59 |
| CBiLL | can't access it at all | 10:59 |
| CBiLL | oh well | 10:59 |
| CBiLL | any step I should try next? | 10:59 |
| laga | um | 11:00 |
| laga | open a terminal, type "mythbuntu-control-centre" and look for error messages | 11:00 |
| CBiLL | ok | 11:00 |
| laga | CBiLL: ok, thaT's bad flickering. :/ | 11:01 |
| laga | but let's have a look at the control centre first! | 11:01 |
| CBiLL | won't let me open a term hehe | 11:01 |
| CBiLL | hrmmp | 11:01 |
| CBiLL | I can ssh in thou | 11:01 |
| laga | oh :/ | 11:01 |
| CBiLL | hrmmm ssh down too | 11:01 |
| CBiLL | lol | 11:02 |
| laga | :'( | 11:02 |
| CBiLL | I am in | 11:02 |
| laga | can you launch the control centre? | 11:02 |
| CBiLL | nope | 11:02 |
| CBiLL | but I am in ssh | 11:02 |
| CBiLL | well I can't xsession at all | 11:03 |
| laga | huh? | 11:03 |
| laga | so, what's exactly going on now? | 11:04 |
| CBiLL | can't get a term window at all | 11:04 |
| laga | but X is still working? | 11:04 |
| CBiLL | yes but can't get into it | 11:04 |
| CBiLL | what session shoudl I pick? | 11:04 |
| directhex|work | if you're connected via ssh, are you using "ssh -X" so you can actually run GUI apps? | 11:04 |
| CBiLL | no I am trying to start X | 11:05 |
| CBiLL | ok got failsafe xterm | 11:05 |
| CBiLL | trying control centre | 11:05 |
| CBiLL | No module named MythbuntuControlCentre.core | 11:06 |
| CBiLL | that the error message | 11:06 |
| CBiLL | suggestions? | 11:07 |
| CBiLL | =P | 11:07 |
| CBiLL | I am all ears! | 11:07 |
| CBiLL | hehehe | 11:07 |
| laga | hum. | 11:07 |
| laga | :) | 11:07 |
| laga | run sudo aptitude dist-upgrade another time.. just to be sure nothing broke | 11:07 |
| CBiLL | is it possible to reinstall with apt-get then? | 11:07 |
| CBiLL | ok | 11:07 |
| CBiLL | yes something is broken sec getting a pastebin | 11:08 |
| directhex|work | "apt-get install --reinstall packagename" if you really want to know how to reinstall a package | 11:09 |

| directhex|work | lirc in "causing problems" shocker | 11:10 |
| laga | heh | 11:10 |
| laga | CBiLL: ok. interesting | 11:10 |
| CBiLL | heh | 11:10 |
| CBiLL | yup | 11:10 |
| CBiLL | very | 11:10 |
| CBiLL | lol | 11:10 |
| laga | CBiLL: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure --force lirc" | 11:10 |
| laga | might fix that | 11:10 |
| directhex|work | lirc just screams "i was made for the 2.2 kernel, that's still modern, right?" to me | 11:11 |
| CBiLL | well doesn't look like it but trying again | 11:11 |
| laga | CBiLL: still the same errors? | 11:12 |
| laga | directhex|work: it's included in ubuntu now, users shouldn't have as much problems anymore | 11:12 |
| CBiLL | all it did was bring up a screen for me to pick a remote | 11:12 |
| CBiLL | I selected none then it shut down | 11:12 |
| CBiLL | then I try again and pick a remote .. same thing | 11:13 |
| directhex|work | laga, does it sort out all the setserial crap? | 11:13 |
| laga | directhex|work: dunno about that (yet). | 11:13 |
| CBiLL | hrmmm let me try installing lirc by hand then .. I done enough lirc installing to do it from memory | 11:13 |
| laga | CBiLL: it's ok if it "hsuts down", it's not OK if you get error messages | 11:13 |
| laga | s/hsuts/shuts/ | 11:14 |
| directhex|work | laga, well that's a major one really - when a user needs to hack on init scripts themselves to be sure it actually behaves... | 11:14 |
| laga | CBiLL: if you install lirc from source, the package dependencies still won't be fulfilled :) | 11:14 |
| CBiLL | yeah that true | 11:14 |
| CBiLL | now what | 11:14 |
| CBiLL | hrmmm | 11:14 |
| laga | directhex|work: true. file a bug? ;) | 11:14 |
| laga | CBiLL: what error messages are you getting now, after choosing a different remote? | 11:15 |
| CBiLL | mediabox@MediaBox:/etc/lirc$ | 11:15 |
| CBiLL | . /etc/lirc/hardware.conf: 4: II RF Remote: not found | 11:15 |
| CBiLL | this one | 11:15 |
| directhex|work | laga, i haven't gone near RS232 since moving to ubuntu. and amaya really didn't seem to care about bugs in lirc when i ran debian, since lirc is smelly. | 11:16 |
| laga | directhex|work: but we care about bugs in lirc. :) | 11:17 |
| laga | well, superm1 does. :> | 11:17 |
| CBiLL | open to suggestions =P | 11:17 |

| CBiLL | ok | 11:17 |
| CBiLL | ah I see | 11:18 |
| CBiLL | the line is wrong | 11:18 |
| CBiLL | fixing it then | 11:18 |
| laga | how is that line wrong? | 11:19 |
| CBiLL | double REMOTE="" in that line | 11:19 |
| laga | oh | 11:19 |
| laga | CBiLL: please file a bug! | 11:19 |

| laga | ouch | 11:19 |
| CBiLL | editing then see if it fixes it | 11:19 |
| laga | yes, that's ugly | 11:19 |

| CBiLL | thanks | 12:13 |
| CBiLL | ok writing it | 12:13 |
| laga | it's just a reminder to set the video resolution appropriately, basically | 12:13 |
| CBiLL | yeah | 12:14 |
| CBiLL | does it mean it will use up more space to record show? | 12:15 |
| CBiLL | bigger mpeg filesize per recording? | 12:15 |
| directhex|work | laga, i write my gui apps in c#, where nobody wanted to touch glade 3 with a barge pole | 12:20 |
| laga | directhex|work: i'm slowly getting the hang of it | 12:21 |
| CBiLL | done laga | 12:24 |
| CBiLL | thank so much man | 12:24 |
| CBiLL | you save me lot of headaches! | 12:24 |

| laga | glad it's working for you now | 12:24 |
| CBiLL | any idea if it records the line21 CC into mpeg too? | 12:25 |
| CBiLL | I hope so | 12:25 |
| laga | what's line21? the stuff you're viewing now? | 12:26 |
| CBiLL | stuff that embedded into the video itself | 12:26 |
| CBiLL | where it decodes the CC from | 12:26 |
| CBiLL | or teletext | 12:26 |
| CBiLL | I think it line22 on PAL | 12:26 |
| CBiLL | 8-) | 12:26 |

| CBiLL | <- expert on teletext coding | 12:26 |

| laga | heh, figured as much | 12:27 |
| CBiLL | yup | 12:27 |
| CBiLL | lots of PVR strip it out of video | 12:28 |
| CBiLL | before writing to mpeg file | 12:28 |
| CBiLL | which disappoints me | 12:28 |
| laga | well | 12:28 |
| laga | you _are_ watching a recording right now | 12:28 |
| laga | mythtv records everything you watch | 12:28 |
| CBiLL | hrmm so it should playback the CC? let me try that in mplayer | 12:28 |

| cornell_work | A bit off topic, but I'd like y'all's opinions. I'm looking for a gui text editor, which can be scripted using a common language (like PHP, Perl, Javascript) and has linux and windows versions, preferrably open source. Any opinions? | 01:16 |
| directhex|work | so emacs doesn't count because it uses lisp? | 01:17 |
| cornell_work | It would be the only thing I could program in lisp ;-) The point is to be able to use a language that is also generally useful in other places. | 01:23 |

| laga | i need to get better at coding. | 01:25 |
| laga | enough frustration for now, RL is calling | 01:25 |
| cornell_work | RIght, directhex|work , PHP might not've been the best example. | 01:32 |
| frink_ | perl would be ideal for editor scripting | 01:47 |

| directhex|work | hell, GIMP uses Scheme for scripting as standard. hands up if you're done a decent Scheme course? | 01:50 |
| cornell_work | Hands up if you heard of a Scheme ;-) | 02:03 |
| cornell_work | frink_: probably right, Perl would be very good | 02:04 |

| directhex|work | i finally have sound on my office pc for the first time ever (initially running dapper) after upgrading to gutsy | 04:16 |

| laga | i cant begin to describe the amount of hae that's building up in my every time i try to print something in linux | 04:17 |

| laga | _very_ often. | 04:17 |
| directhex|work | i find printer choice helps | 04:18 |
| directhex|work | and with printing, as with any config task, not using kde helps too, since kcontrol is guaranteed to *gently caress* something up horribly every time | 04:18 |
| laga | it's an entry-level HP printer. HP was recommended by linuxprinting.org | 04:18 |
| laga | yeah, using kcontrol right now *sigh* | 04:19 |

| frink_ | i have no probs printing | 04:30 |
| frink_ | to postscript things, a plotter, a dell with a network card, a Cannon i865 | 04:30 |
| frink_ | but really, get postscript printers.. | 04:31 |
| frink_ | much easier. they just work on anything. | 04:31 |
| tgm4883 | bah, go old school. Stone and chisel | 04:31 |
| directhex|work | i had the joy of giving canon a 10-part plan on why we wouldn't buy a 10000 printer from them | 04:31 |
| frink_ | why not? | 04:34 |
| directhex|work | not sure if i still have it. hold on... | 04:34 |
| frink_ | did it involve linux support? | 04:34 |
| frink_ | I told a company making WiMAX PCMCIA cards that we would not buy any unless they support Linux.. They now reckon they will have the driver source in my hands in a month :) | 04:35 |
| directhex|work | frink_, it did indeed involve linux support. let me get the email up | 04:35 |
| frink_ | cool | 04:35 |
| directhex|work | http://www.apebox.org/canon.txt | 04:36 |
| frink_ | precisely how much crack would we need to have | 04:39 |

| frink_ | lol | 04:39 |

| laga | morning superm1 | 04:41 |
| directhex|work | superm1 awakes! | 04:41 |
| laga | ok, bank was already closed *grrr* | 04:41 |
| frink_ | hey superm1 | 04:41 |
| superm1 | laga, more than 7 hours right :) | 04:41 |
| laga | superm1: about 7:20 | 04:41 |
| laga | good boy | 04:41 |
| superm1 | haha | 04:41 |
| laga | i should open a kindergarten for distro maintainers | 04:42 |
| laga | superm1: BTW, the UI side for the mythweb auth stuff was surprisingly easy. | 04:42 |
| laga | i can't get the backend side of things to work because i dunno how to use debconf.py :) | 04:42 |
| superm1 | laga, oh be careful with that | 04:43 |
| superm1 | there is a reason why its not on right now | 04:43 |
| laga | "on"? | 04:43 |
| superm1 | you can only have one debconf backend active at a time | 04:43 |
| laga | oh. | 04:43 |
| superm1 | is there any code in the control centre alluding that i wanted to use it? | 04:43 |
| superm1 | there should be | 04:43 |
| superm1 | or maybe i'm thinking of live-autostart | 04:43 |
| laga | i dunno, i didn't grep in there. | 04:43 |
| frink_ | Ya know what would be nice... | 04:43 |
| chuk | what is that message box that comes up on the current version of trunk when you start it? | 04:43 |
| laga | i just looked in ubiquity | 04:44 |
| chuk | about choosing a server | 04:44 |
| laga | chuk: upnp | 04:44 |
| laga | chuk: you should follow mythtv-commits and mythtv-dev if you use trunk | 04:44 |
| frink_ | on the web front end on the recorded programmes list, clicking on the programme links to the file on disk. It'd be nice if it could transcode that in real time to something streamable. | 04:44 |
| superm1 | laga, well if you end up doing debconf in the control centre, you have to find a way to stop it and start it | 04:44 |
| superm1 | which i don't think is possible unless you call it via a shell script | 04:44 |
| superm1 | that sources the debconf /usr/share/debconf/module | 04:44 |
| laga | superm1: debconf.py does stop it AFAIK | 04:44 |
| laga | or at least it's possible to do that | 04:45 |
| superm1 | laga, not in my tests. it forks a process that runs debconf, and then somehow the parent process is turned into a child | 04:45 |
| superm1 | or something wacky like that | 04:45 |
| laga | o_O | 04:45 |
| superm1 | which makes sense for most applications of it, but not this one | 04:45 |
| laga | it runs debconf-communicate', '-fnoninteractive | 04:46 |
| laga | anyways, gotta run. | 04:47 |
| laga | superm1: oh, one last thing. can we actually still upload new versions of the packages? | 04:47 |
| superm1 | laga, well yes and no | 04:47 |
| superm1 | regarding what it runs | 04:47 |
| tgm4883 | frink_, like mythstreamtv? | 04:48 |
| superm1 | laga, its needs to run one more thing in order to work | 04:48 |
| superm1 | i can try to explain better what i ran into later | 04:48 |
| superm1 | laga, 'new' in what sense? | 04:48 |
| laga | superm1: "new" as in "i added stuff to the control centre" | 04:49 |
| superm1 | oh yeah that can still go in | 04:49 |
| laga | good. | 04:49 |
| laga | dont wanna be stressing myself over things which still have time | 04:49 |
| tgm4883 | do things in the ppa have to adhere to the universe guidelines like version numbering? | 04:50 |
| superm1 | its just new upstream versions that we can't do | 04:50 |
| superm1 | tgm4883, they *should* | 04:50 |
| tgm4883 | they *should*, but they are not *required*? | 04:50 |
| superm1 | well why do you bring this up? | 04:50 |
| laga | ok, bye | 04:51 |
| superm1 | cya | 04:51 |
| tgm4883 | eh, my gutsy pbuilder is borked and I need to package something, but it doesn't follow the right version number | 04:51 |
| superm1 | what version number does it follow? | 04:53 |
| tgm4883 | um | 04:53 |
| tgm4883 | well one is bzr24 | 04:53 |
| tgm4883 | thats how it ends | 04:53 |
| superm1 | okay i guess explain better | 04:53 |
| superm1 | what's in universe | 04:53 |
| superm1 | and what do you want to do on the ppa | 04:53 |
| tgm4883 | ah | 04:54 |
| tgm4883 | it's not in universe | 04:54 |
| tgm4883 | I am packaging the AWN for reacocard for 64-bit, but i only have a feisty pbuilder right now | 04:54 |
| superm1 | didn't someone already do awn in a ppa? | 04:54 |
| tgm4883 | so basically i want to package it on the ppa and send it to reacocard so he can host it | 04:55 |
| superm1 | Armanath | 04:55 |
| tgm4883 | hmm | 04:55 |
| tgm4883 | link? | 04:55 |
| superm1 | i dont have a link, i just remember him discussing it | 04:55 |
| superm1 | or maybe RAOF | 04:55 |
| tgm4883 | hm, i'll have to check it out | 04:56 |
| superm1 | well maybe not, i dont see it in either of their ppa's | 04:58 |
| superm1 | well i would really recommend following the universe version structure | 04:59 |
| superm1 | it will save lots of hassle later | 04:59 |

| tgm4883 | so then how should I change the versioning if it is coming from bzr? | 05:13 |
| tgm4883 | I mean, i don't want to totally blow away the bzr number right? | 05:16 |
| tgm4883 | for instance this is what it currently looks like avant-window-navigator-bzr_0.1.2-bzr73-1.dsc | 05:16 |
| superm1 | well that versioning is fine | 05:25 |
| superm1 | you just need to make it an ubuntu version | 05:26 |
| superm1 | that's a debian one | 05:26 |

| taff | hi ! just found out about mythubuntu ! seems to be a nice project .. anybody has a list of supported video cards ? i never got my Cinergy 600 TV to record on ubuntu | 10:15 |
| taff | it works with tvtime ... but not with vdr .... ( no dvb card ) | 10:15 |
| NeoFax | I cannot install mythbuntu. Ubiquity errors always with an error 211. | 10:16 |
| tgm4883_laptop | tvtime? I thought you said it didn't work with ubuntu? | 10:16 |
| tgm4883_laptop | NeoFax, what step? | 10:17 |
| taff | well it works for watching .... | 10:17 |
| tgm4883_laptop | taff, did it work in mythtv? | 10:17 |
| taff | but not with recording / tvtime cannot record.... and as far as i know mythtv uses vdr ... --> that never worked | 10:17 |
| NeoFax | While it is installing it gets to installing software and then exits at approximatly 50-60% | 10:17 |
| deffcon | laga : nope not working | 10:17 |
| taff | no nothing worked with mythtv :) but this could be because of me :D | 10:17 |
| taff | right now i only could get tvtime to work ... but unfortunalty i cannot record with it | 10:18 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ok | 10:19 |
| tgm4883_laptop | why again won't it work with vdr? | 10:19 |
| taff | well vdr does crash because it does not recognise the buffer of the video card ... at least thats the error message with some hex code | 10:19 |
| taff | but to be honest i am not really sure if it will work with vdr because i have read that it only supports dvb cards .. is that true ? | 10:20 |
| taff | btw thanks for reading and helping :) | 10:20 |
| tgm4883_laptop | laga, is saa7134 built into gutsy? | 10:21 |
| NeoFax | tgm4883_laptop: It errors on the install of the software | 10:22 |
| deffcon | laga ? | 10:22 |
| tgm4883_laptop | NeoFax, did you verify the iso and burnt cd? | 10:22 |
| tgm4883_laptop | taff, I think it will work | 10:22 |
| taff | saa7134 is built into feisty .... so i am sure it is in gutsy ? | 10:22 |
| tgm4883_laptop | a quick google shows your card uses saa7134, which just requires a modprobe in feisty | 10:22 |
| NeoFax | tgm4883_laptop: 3 times. I am even trying to use it in a virtualbox. The md5sum matches and it boots fine. | 10:23 |
| tgm4883_laptop | mythtv uses non dvb cards fine | 10:23 |
| SpudDogg | i've found a problem with the live CD's X configuration...who do i report that to? | 10:23 |
| tgm4883_laptop | NeoFax, and virtualbox is giving you the same problems? | 10:23 |
| taff | well it works with feisty on tvtime ;) but i get this buffer error with vdr | 10:23 |
| taff | i have had this problem for months now ... and it is one of my last reasons to still run windows ... | 10:24 |
| tgm4883_laptop | SpudDogg, file a bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/ | 10:24 |
| tgm4883_laptop | taff, did you try it with mythtv? | 10:24 |
| taff | yes | 10:24 |
| tgm4883_laptop | and it didn't work | 10:24 |
| taff | did not work | 10:24 |
| SpudDogg | tgm4883_laptop: doing it right now, thanks | 10:24 |
| tgm4883_laptop | did you modprobe the saa7134 driver? | 10:25 |
| taff | no actually not | 10:25 |
| tgm4883_laptop | modprobe that driver then | 10:25 |
| taff | i thought the driver should be alright | 10:25 |
| taff | since it works with tvtime ... am i wrong here = | 10:25 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I direct you to all the other cards that use the saa7134 (non dvb) driver and mythtv. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_Feisty_hardware_list | 10:26 |
| taff | ok i will check thanks ! i have used modeprobe before but only with guides | 10:26 |
| NeoFax | tgm4883_laptop: I am working on getting virtualbox to work in sidux. It looks like I have to log out for me to be added to the vboxuser group. | 10:26 |
| taff | how do i exactly use it with the saa7134 driver ? ( sorry if it is too newbie ! ) | 10:27 |
| NeoFax | Is there a way to restat the user info without restarting X? | 10:27 |
| tgm4883_laptop | back in 5 min | 10:27 |
| tgm4883_laptop | not off the top of my head | 10:27 |

| tgm4883_laptop | then you will notice your card is listed here http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_saa7134 | 10:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | you will also notice that other cards also use saa7134 | 10:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | and that these cards had to modprobe the saa7134 driver to get it to work in mythtv in Ubuntu Feisty, that info is located here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_Feisty_hardware_list | 10:39 |
| tgm4883_laptop | for instance a card that uses that is the Compro Videomate DBT-200 | 10:40 |
| tgm4883_laptop | where they have to modprobe the saa7134 driver to get it to work under Feisty | 10:40 |
| taff | sorry if this is not the right place but what exactly does modprobe do ? | 10:41 |
| tgm4883_laptop | It loads the driver | 10:41 |
| taff | and i found this now : http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Terratec_Cinergy_400 this should be exactly the same | 10:41 |
| taff | but the driver is loaded ? it would not work with tvtime if it is not loaded ? ( sorry this is just interest question :P ) | 10:41 |

| MythbuntuGuest19 | Got it installed, but the install script for the nvidia driver with TV out is not working and I am unsure what to do to troubleshoot | 12:26 |
| MythbuntuGuest19 | x fails to start | 12:27 |
| tgm4883 | MythbuntuGuest19, do you mean that duing install you can't install the nvidia driver or after install you cant? | 12:28 |
| tgm4883 | what video card? | 12:28 |
| tgm4883 | ok then, glad I could help | 12:29 |

| MythbuntuGuest73 | it was detected and installed, and it gave me the option to select tv out. After install x is not starting | 12:30 |
| tgm4883 | what card? | 12:30 |
| tgm4883 | did you install via the control-centre, or the command line? | 12:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | I would have to look it up - nvidia 5?00 or something likst that | 12:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | control center | 12:31 |
| tgm4883 | hmm | 12:31 |
| tgm4883 | any errors during startup? | 12:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | it says failed to load module | 12:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | no drivers available | 12:31 |
| tgm4883 | does it say which one? | 12:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | is there a command line script to reconfigure? | 12:32 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | no, it does not | 12:32 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | I'll run the boot disk again and see if I missed something | 12:33 |
| tgm4883 | did you verify the iso and cd? | 12:34 |

| MythbuntuGuest73 | I am lazy like that ;-P | 12:34 |
| tgm4883 | try that :) | 12:34 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | Is the nvidia proprietary driver usually auto installed? | 12:35 |
| laga | no | 12:36 |
| laga | ok, its official: i broke my desktop :) | 12:36 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | maybe that is my problem - isn't that the only one where tv out works? | 12:36 |
| laga | tomorrow i shall reinstall gutsy | 12:36 |
| laga | MythbuntuGuest73: for nvidia. zes. | 12:37 |
| laga | yes* | 12:37 |
| MythbuntuGuest73 | I think I to recompile the kernel to get it working before | 12:37 |

| laga | next to the version number theres a field for that afaik | 12:38 |
