ian_001 | i have the release from the 11th and just tried ot upgrade my nvidia drivers and now they dont work because they require the latest kernel i guess | 02:49 |
MythbuntuGuest69 | hi! | 02:52 |
MythbuntuGuest69 | I just had the nvidia problem | 02:52 |
MythbuntuGuest69 | had to apt-get update first | 02:52 |
Tari_ | yeah, that | 02:53 |
MythbuntuGuest69 | are ivtv drivers installed? having a hard time getting my pvr-350 working | 02:55 |

ian_001 | should i do an apt-get dist-upgrade? | 03:00 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | no!! | 03:00 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | just do apt-get update | 03:01 |
ian_001 | good thing i asked, i was about to! | 03:01 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | then run the control panel thingie | 03:01 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | it fixed the error that the file was not found | 03:01 |
ian_001 | restricted-manager or something? | 03:02 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | the control center | 03:03 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | you have to change the logon type | 03:03 |
ian_001 | reboot first? | 03:03 |
tgm4883 | ian_001, feisty or gutsy? | 03:03 |
ian_001 | the mythbuntu install from sept 1 | 03:04 |
ian_001 | so the latest | 03:04 |
tgm4883 | you may want to try a dist-upgrade | 03:04 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | Sorry, | 03:04 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | I thought you had a different problem | 03:04 |
tgm4883 | although I don't know if that will fix your problem, as a regular apt-get upgrade should pull the package your looking for | 03:05 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | I downloaded the image tonight and installed it. The nvidia driver would not install until I did an update. | 03:06 |
ian_001 | because the previous driver wasnt there? | 03:06 |
ian_001 | thats hte problem i had | 03:06 |
ian_001 | i uninstalled just the nvidia driver and whe ni went to reinstall it it was gone | 03:06 |
tgm4883 | what do you mean it is gone? | 03:07 |
ian_001 | when i went to install the nvidia driver from the restricted mmanager it shoewd me the url and it couldnt download the file, i opened a browser and the file didnt exist on the server | 03:07 |
ian_001 | said it couldnt | 03:08 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | now, finally got pvr-350 working. last obsticle is lirc! No remote for me yet... | 03:08 |
ian_001 | ugh | 03:08 |
ian_001 | this always happens when i do na upgrade | 03:08 |
ian_001 | the remote never works | 03:08 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | that is the same problem that I had | 03:08 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | i did the apt-get update | 03:08 |
ian_001 | i knew i shouldnt have played with the nvidia driver | 03:08 |
ian_001 | did you try using the mythbuntu config application? | 03:09 |
ian_001 | rebooting, brb | 03:09 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | remote never works? | 03:09 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | What did he mean by that I wonder? | 03:10 |
tgm4883 | i suppose he meant that every time he touches his video card driver it breaks his lirc | 03:11 |
=== ian_001 [n=ian@ool-457d7cbf.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv | ||
ian_001 | ok now both my remote and my nvidia driver work | 03:15 |
[_Trimble_] | @#$@#$ nvidia drivers broke my machine.... :( | 03:15 |
[_Trimble_] | lol | 03:15 |
ian_001 | what worked for me was apt-get update, apt-get upgrade | 03:15 |
ian_001 | i thought my remote would break during the process but im fine | 03:16 |
[_Trimble_] | nice :) | 03:16 |
[_Trimble_] | I'm using the 7.10 mythbuntu iso, and I just asked it to install the "nvidia latest" drivers, and X broke. /sigh In my test rig i used the non-latest.. heh | 03:17 |
ian_001 | did yo utry the update? | 03:17 |
[_Trimble_] | yeah | 03:18 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | Is there an easy way to get the remote working on a fresh install? It is a Hauppage remote | 03:18 |
[_Trimble_] | before i asked it to install the nvidia drivers | 03:18 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | nevermind! | 03:19 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | apparently I just needed to install my old lircrc file | 03:19 |
[_Trimble_] | well, my hauppage 150 silver remote worked immediately after install using the 7.10 iso | 03:19 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | mine is kinda working now | 03:19 |
[_Trimble_] | mine worked perfectly on my test HD, except i had to edit the config to get the back/exit button working | 03:20 |
[_Trimble_] | now i'm trying to put the same config on my real HD and it's being a pain | 03:21 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | yeah, that is the button that is broken on mine. | 03:23 |

[_Trimble_] | wait, what? | 03:38 |
[_Trimble_] | change ok/enter? | 03:38 |
[_Trimble_] | i forgot what file i edited to fix my back/exit button heh | 03:39 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | I got that | 03:42 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | the lircrc mane did not match the lirc.conf name | 03:43 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | the volume names were screwy too | 03:43 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | only thing I dod not get working tonight is the DVD. | 03:43 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | There is a setting in the guide settings where it changes the function of the ok button while in guide to make it change channels. I found it | 03:44 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | otherwise the ok button goes to record settings | 03:45 |
MythbuntuGuest92 | heading to bed! Thanks to anyone involved in making MU. It is WAY easier than doing it from scratch like last time | 03:46 |

FatDave | wow. i'm on the site. Just found out about "mythbuntu" Its a really cool idea. | 04:34 |
tgm4883_laptop | thanks FatDave | 04:35 |
FatDave | first question: is it going to support cards like hauppauge out of the box? | 04:35 |
tgm4883_laptop | well most of the support will come from Gutsy | 04:35 |
FatDave | thats what I was thinking, but haven't looked at gutsy yet. do you know if it has support for the ivtv drivers built in? | 04:36 |
tgm4883_laptop | yes | 04:36 |
FatDave | tit banger! thats the one thing that pained me so every time that I installed mythtv on a fresh box | 04:36 |
FatDave | I see that mythbuntu isn't "official" yet, but I assume it is good enough to install? | 04:37 |
tgm4883_laptop | well, there are a few bugs | 04:37 |
tgm4883_laptop | but it is usable | 04:37 |
tgm4883_laptop | superm1_, whats the time frame for the beta? | 04:38 |
FatDave | I also just found out about zap2it after seeing that there are no more channel listings in myth :( | 04:38 |
tgm4883_laptop | There is Schedules Direct though :) | 04:38 |
FatDave | yeah, but you have to pay | 04:41 |
tgm4883_laptop | eh, it's only $15/6 months | 04:41 |
tgm4883_laptop | but to each his own | 04:41 |
[_Trimble_] | yeah, 15 bucks for 6 months is wayyyyy better than tivo ;) | 04:42 |
FatDave | i know. i'm just hoping that there will be enough of an outcry | 04:42 |
tgm4883_laptop | an outcry for what? | 04:42 |
FatDave | how does winblows media center work? do you have to pay for channel listings or something with that? | 04:42 |
FatDave | outcry for another free tv listing service | 04:43 |
tgm4883_laptop | well there are screenscraper programs | 04:43 |
FatDave | i hear they don't work the best | 04:43 |
tgm4883_laptop | they dont | 04:44 |
FatDave | may not be accurate or something. never tried them though | 04:44 |
tgm4883_laptop | but I wouldn't hold your breath for another free service | 04:44 |
tgm4883_laptop | You could also either get data OTA, or go without channel data | 04:44 |
FatDave | well, i am will be watching the progress with mythbuntu. I think its very cool | 04:44 |

superm1_ | itzac, gnome-screensaver-preferences | 05:45 |
itzac | great, thanks superml. figured it'd be something like that | 05:45 |
superm1_ | itzac, next alpha it should be in the xfce menus once we activate xfce | 05:46 |
itzac | good to hear, though I'm surprised it's enabled in the first place | 05:47 |
superm1_ | well it makes sense on tvs | 05:47 |
superm1_ | it shouldnt come on during the recordings though | 05:47 |
superm1_ | just the menus | 05:47 |
itzac | yeah, that's what I'd expect | 05:48 |
superm1_ | is it coming on during recordings for you? | 05:48 |
itzac | yup, and the remote doesn't turn it off. I have to use the keyboard | 05:48 |
superm1_ | is the screen turning black? | 05:48 |
superm1_ | or is the screensaver coming on | 05:48 |
superm1_ | you might be encountering the same thing tgm4883_laptop was | 05:48 |
itzac | turning black slowly | 05:48 |
superm1_ | hm i wonder if the gnome screensaver support broke then recently | 05:49 |
superm1_ | your sure its a slow fade to black | 05:49 |
superm1_ | not just a sudden black | 05:49 |
itzac | slow fade in menus, haven't seen it on tv, just came back to black | 05:50 |
superm1_ | okay then you are encountering dpms problems | 05:51 |
superm1_ | gnome screensaver support is working as expected though (in the menus its coming on) | 05:51 |
superm1_ | dpms is turning on otherwise though | 05:51 |
superm1_ | can you check /var/log/Xorg.0.log for any info re: DPMS? | 05:51 |

superm1_ | and hit the terminal button there | 05:55 |
superm1_ | your looking for a section like this in the results of xset q | 05:55 |
superm1_ | DPMS (Energy Star): | 05:55 |
superm1_ | Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0 | 05:55 |
superm1_ | DPMS is Enabled | 05:55 |
superm1_ | Monitor is On | 05:55 |
itzac | q, brb | 05:56 |
superm1_ | tgm4883_laptop, in your xset q | 05:58 |
superm1_ | can you check and see what the "Screen Saver:" | 05:58 |
superm1_ | section indicates? | 05:58 |
itzac | DPMS (Energy Star): | 05:58 |
itzac | Standby: 1200 Suspend: 1800 Off: 2400 | 05:59 |
itzac | etc.. | 05:59 |
superm1_ | okay try this then | 05:59 |
superm1_ | xset s -dpms | 05:59 |
superm1_ | see if that resolves things | 05:59 |
superm1_ | if it doesn't, then it is the normal "X" screensaver breaking them | 05:59 |
itzac | should set values to 0? | 06:00 |
superm1_ | once you do xset s -dpms | 06:00 |
superm1_ | that turns them all off | 06:00 |
itzac | dpms is disabled | 06:02 |
superm1_ | hopefully that reoslves the issue | 06:02 |
tgm4883_laptop | man if that works im going to be happy | 06:02 |
tgm4883_laptop | and irritated | 06:02 |
itzac | hehe | 06:02 |
tgm4883_laptop | but mostly happy | 06:02 |
superm1_ | well it still doesn't solve the problem permanently | 06:02 |
superm1_ | it just will identify it | 06:02 |
tgm4883_laptop | i swear i did that yesterday | 06:02 |
tgm4883_laptop | yea, a reboot will change it back | 06:02 |
itzac | I was about to ask | 06:03 |
superm1_ | so if that *doesn't work* | 06:03 |
superm1_ | then try this | 06:03 |
superm1_ | xset s off | 06:03 |
superm1_ | but dont do them both right now | 06:03 |
itzac | how do I make it permanent? | 06:03 |
superm1_ | because we need to identify which one is causing it | 06:03 |
superm1_ | we'll get to that after we know if its the solution :) | 06:03 |
tgm4883_laptop | off to watch a show. I'll know in less than 30 | 06:04 |
foxbuntu | evening superm1_ | 06:04 |

foxbuntu | I haven't heard from him in quite some time | 06:06 |
superm1_ | yeah that's what he said | 06:07 |
foxbuntu | who was he talking to at the cf? | 06:07 |
superm1_ | i dunno | 06:07 |
foxbuntu | oh | 06:07 |

tgm4883_laptop | slow fade during tv | 06:15 |
superm1_ | *slow fade*? | 06:15 |
superm1_ | sure | 06:15 |
superm1_ | ? | 06:15 |
CBiLL | Hi folks | 06:15 |
itzac | damn, looks like I was too optimistic, too | 06:16 |
itzac | same thing | 06:16 |
CBiLL | got rid of my flickering problem .. it was an VBI issue | 06:16 |
CBiLL | submitted a report anyway | 06:16 |
superm1_ | well you guys are describing two different problems | 06:16 |
superm1_ | hi CBiLL | 06:16 |
superm1_ | oh you had vbi on? | 06:16 |
superm1_ | i could have told you vbi was buggy :) | 06:16 |
CBiLL | I have to | 06:16 |
CBiLL | I am deaf remember | 06:16 |
CBiLL | =P | 06:16 |
itzac | no, slow fade during tv | 06:16 |
CBiLL | need it on for CC but it fixed | 06:17 |
superm1_ | CBiLL, your deaf? | 06:17 |
tgm4883_laptop | itzac, what is it doing to you? | 06:17 |
CBiLL | yes | 06:18 |
superm1_ | CBiLL, sorry to hear that. that would make things difficult wrg to vbi wouldnt it | 06:18 |
CBiLL | wrg? | 06:19 |
superm1_ | with regard to | 06:19 |
CBiLL | only thing i need to do was change relsolution to 720 x 480 | 06:19 |
CBiLL | and it stop flickering | 06:19 |
superm1_ | and vbi works now too? | 06:19 |
foxbuntu | superm1_, btw...did the new Usplash work ok for you? | 06:20 |
superm1_ | foxbuntu, i uploaded it to the archive | 06:20 |
itzac | tgm, slow fade to black in menus or during tv | 06:20 |
foxbuntu | awesome | 06:20 |
tgm4883_laptop | itzac, yep same thing here | 06:20 |
superm1_ | foxbuntu, but i haven't rebooted my laptop yet, so i havent tried it | 06:21 |
foxbuntu | oh you should | 06:21 |
foxbuntu | its nice | 06:21 |
CBiLL | some bug in IVTV | 06:21 |
CBiLL | yes | 06:21 |
CBiLL | perfectly | 06:21 |
CBiLL | just change recording profile default and live tv | 06:21 |
CBiLL | to 720 x 480 | 06:21 |
superm1_ | itzac, tgm4883_laptop so then gnome-screensaver support *is* broken now or not. i'm pretty confused. | 06:21 |
itzac | well, shutting off dpms didn't fix it | 06:22 |
superm1_ | CBiLL, we'll have to get that added to the wiki or to the manual | 06:22 |
tgm4883_laptop | superm1_, I think it's gnome screensaver | 06:22 |
superm1_ | itzac, try the xset s off | 06:22 |
superm1_ | tgm4883_laptop, well this isn't good then. | 06:22 |
itzac | I've already disabled the screensaver, will let you know if that solves it | 06:22 |
superm1_ | CBiLL, can you let DaveMorris know next time you see him | 06:22 |
CBiLL | superm1_ : I submitted a bug report on it | 06:22 |
CBiLL | but yeah should be added to wiki | 06:22 |
CBiLL | ok if I see him | 06:22 |
CBiLL | he come to this channel? | 06:23 |
superm1_ | CBiLL, okay, well there is no general way to force it for everyone | 06:23 |

tgm4883_laptop | xset s off sets the screensaver to off? | 06:23 |
superm1_ | tgm4883_laptop, turns off the 'X' screensaver | 06:23 |
superm1_ | not the gnome-screensaver | 06:23 |
CBiLL | Ill remember it | 06:23 |
tgm4883_laptop | ah | 06:23 |
superm1_ | CBiLL, so everything else is working correctly for you now then right? | 06:23 |
CBiLL | yes | 06:24 |
CBiLL | perfectly | 06:24 |
CBiLL | nice Closed Captioning too since i could change font and it size | 06:25 |
CBiLL | I have not test recording and playing back on another player to see if it record the CC | 06:25 |
CBiLL | I hope it does | 06:25 |
superm1_ | CBiLL, great. and everything you've ran into along the way has either already had a bug filed or is fixed in a future release right? | 06:25 |
CBiLL | I don't know about being fixed in future release but found a forum talking about it | 06:25 |
CBiLL | so tried it and it fixed the problem | 06:26 |
CBiLL | so I filed a bug with a link to that forum post about it | 06:26 |
superm1_ | okay so at least everything has bugs filed then | 06:26 |
CBiLL | but picture is perfect | 06:26 |
CBiLL | that is on PVR 500 composite in | 06:27 |
CBiLL | where everyone says is grainy and crappy | 06:27 |
CBiLL | and it not to me | 06:27 |
CBiLL | look clean and almost sharp | 06:27 |
tgm4883_laptop | superm1_, i should also note that the remote doesn't bring it out of the black screen | 06:27 |
superm1_ | tgm4883_laptop, see that's characteristic of the "X' screensaver | 06:28 |
tgm4883_laptop | I just disabled gnome-screensaver so we'll see | 06:28 |
superm1_ | but not gnome screensaver | 06:28 |
CBiLL | those fade in and out | 06:28 |
superm1_ | yeah | 06:29 |
CBiLL | I seen them but only when I am in menu or left it there | 06:29 |
CBiLL | never saw it occur on live tv | 06:29 |
CBiLL | it a normal thing right? to fade out when it in Menu listing? | 06:29 |
superm1_ | yeah that's normal | 06:29 |
superm1_ | tgm4883_laptop, and itzac claim that it is happening during tv too though | 06:30 |
superm1_ | i think they're lying, but that's just me :) | 06:30 |
superm1_ | CBiLL, re the picture being sharp to you: on a tv it looks a lot better to most people | 06:30 |
CBiLL | ok back to get my samba working .. thanks again for trying superm1_ and wanted to come in to tell you about it | 06:30 |
CBiLL | lagas was a huge help pinpointing it too! | 06:30 |
CBiLL | oh no s hehe | 06:30 |
CBiLL | laga | 06:30 |
superm1_ | thanks for getting us the info on what needs to be done about it, we'll be able to point others toward it now :) | 06:30 |
CBiLL | yes | 06:31 |
CBiLL | just change the setting and it done | 06:31 |
tgm4883_laptop | nope | 06:36 |
tgm4883_laptop | disabled gnome screensaver and it still does it | 06:36 |
CBiLL | bios have screensaver on it? | 06:37 |
superm1_ | tgm4883_laptop, did you do xset s off? | 06:37 |
CBiLL | older copmuter did | 06:37 |
CBiLL | I know lot of laptop bios had screensaver on it to save battery power .. are you using laptop? (just assuming due to your irc nickname ) | 06:38 |
tgm4883_laptop | superm1_, no, i'm doing that now thought | 06:39 |
tgm4883_laptop | it takes about 10 minutes for it to happen, and the remote has no effect on it at all | 06:39 |

tgm4883_laptop | superm1_, that doesn't help either | 06:51 |
tgm4883_laptop | although i did notice that when I did xset s off, i then did checked it and dpms was turned back on | 06:52 |
itzac | shutting off gnome-screensaver seems to have fixed the problem | 06:52 |
tgm4883_laptop | CBiLL, no, the problem is on my standalone system | 06:53 |
tgm4883_laptop | itzac, how did you shut it off? | 06:53 |
itzac | I sshed in and ran gnome-screensaver-preferences and unchecked activate screensaver when computer is idle | 06:55 |
tgm4883_laptop | hmm, thats what I did too | 06:55 |
tgm4883_laptop | well, i ran it from the control centre | 06:55 |
itzac | maybe it just hasn't turned on yet? | 06:56 |
itzac | did you log in with the same user as runs mythtv? | 06:56 |
superm1_ | well as of alpha 4 its the normal user | 06:56 |
itzac | yup, just making sure there's nothing funny there | 06:56 |
tgm4883_laptop | superm1_, would that differ though since the control centre brings up a root terminal? | 06:57 |
itzac | it does? | 06:57 |
tgm4883_laptop | yes | 06:57 |
superm1_ | well i don't know, perhaps that is where an issue is stemming | 06:58 |
superm1_ | only for gnome-screensaver-preferences would that matter | 06:58 |
superm1_ | not for xset stuff | 06:58 |
tgm4883_laptop | heh | 06:58 |
itzac | gnome-screensaver settings would be per user | 06:58 |
tgm4883_laptop | then maybe it will work for itzac | 06:58 |
itzac | so you might want to su - user first | 06:58 |
tgm4883_laptop | heh, now I get cannot open display | 06:59 |
itzac | and I don't know how to fix that | 06:59 |
superm1_ | you have to do something like xhost + | 06:59 |
itzac | maybe instead try ssh localhost -X -luser | 07:00 |
itzac | it's a hack, but it'll get'er done | 07:00 |
tgm4883_laptop | im going to leave it activated but move it to 2 minutes and test it | 07:01 |
itzac | clever guy | 07:01 |
tgm4883_laptop | yay | 07:04 |
tgm4883_laptop | did it right at 2 minutes | 07:04 |
superm1_ | woah what happened with these gnome updates in gutsy. gnome just got prettier again | 07:05 |
itzac | cool | 07:05 |
itzac | I bet the code that shuts off the screensaver is still pointed at the mythtv user | 07:05 |
=== tgm4883_laptop is not crazy | ||
tgm4883_laptop | and itzac is not crazy either | 07:06 |
superm1_ | well the code isn't dependent upon the user that is using it | 07:06 |
itzac | nope | 07:06 |
itzac | I'm too lazy to check the code out and look for myself, so I'll take your word for it | 07:12 |
superm1_ | well the code is a minor patch to the existing xscreensaver code already in myth | 07:12 |
superm1_ | to make it do similar causes to gnome-screensaver instead | 07:12 |
itzac | in other oddities, my listings for today are off by 2 channels, but they fix themselves tomorrow | 07:12 |
superm1_ | so there is no reason that it should be behaving weirdly | 07:12 |

denbeiren | hello | 10:35 |
laga | morning | 10:35 |
denbeiren | could anyone here help me out in configuring my technotrend DVB card? | 10:35 |
laga | maybe. just ask a question :) | 10:36 |
denbeiren | when i try to scan channels i get the error "error parsing ****" | 10:36 |
laga | ? | 10:36 |
laga | did you enter a transponder? | 10:36 |
denbeiren | the * stands for something, but i can't remember it right now :( | 10:36 |
denbeiren | i have the machine here next to me if you would be willing to guide me trough | 10:37 |
laga | i can't guide you through it because i don't remember the details. you need to give it an initial transponder, including modulation and other params | 10:38 |
laga | you can get those values from a channels.conf file | 10:38 |
denbeiren | i have tried running setup a couple of times,.. but without success | 10:40 |
denbeiren | is a transponder the same as the LNB? | 10:41 |
laga | no | 10:41 |
denbeiren | "error parsing parameters" wat the error,.. now i remember | 10:41 |
laga | the transponder.. think of it as data stream on a given frequency which carries multiple channels | 10:41 |
laga | yes | 10:41 |
laga | because you didn't give an initial transponder | 10:41 |
laga | you could try to import a channels.conf and "scan all existing transponders" | 10:42 |
denbeiren | i am in mythtv setup now | 10:43 |
denbeiren | i have my cardsettings | 10:43 |
denbeiren | the card is recognised | 10:43 |

denbeiren | diseq settings are correct (as far as i know) | 10:43 |
denbeiren | video sources, nothing | 10:44 |
denbeiren | input connections,.. there i can scan for channels, but that gives me errors | 10:44 |
Rimers | Hi guys :) | 10:44 |
denbeiren | and channel editor | 10:45 |
denbeiren | where do i make the settings for those transponders you were talking about? | 10:45 |
laga | you enter them in the channel scanner window | 10:45 |
laga | there are a bunch of empty fields. | 10:46 |
laga | for frequency, modulation etc | 10:46 |
denbeiren | yes i see those | 10:47 |
laga | you need to enter something there. | 10:47 |
denbeiren | freq is empty | 10:47 |
denbeiren | so i have to enter every channel manually? | 10:47 |
laga | no | 10:47 |
laga | you have to enter one initial transponder. from that, it'll get all other transponders and the channels broadcast on those transponders | 10:48 |
denbeiren | could i find a file somewhere that gives me all the transponders for astra 1 and astra 3 that i could import? | 10:49 |
denbeiren | or could you give me the initial transponder? | 10:49 |
directhex|work | "scan" from the dvb-utils package should work | 10:51 |
directhex|work | or you could use lyngsat.com to get data if you really feel like it | 10:51 |
denbeiren | dvb-utils? | 10:52 |
denbeiren | do i have to download that? | 10:53 |
directhex|work | it's probably already included in mythbuntu. though laga will probably correct me | 10:53 |
denbeiren | if it is included,.. how would i start it up and/or use it? | 10:55 |
directhex|work | erm... with "scan" and the associated parameters? | 10:55 |
directhex|work | alternatively, assuming the package is installed (why not just check? O_o) you could make use of the sample files it already provides | 10:56 |
directhex|work | such as /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-s/Astra-19.2E | 10:56 |
denbeiren | because i am fairly new to linux and do not know where to find these things, and do not know how to load them | 10:57 |
directhex|work | dpkg -l dvb-utils | 10:58 |
directhex|work | "ii" means "installed & configured" | 10:58 |
denbeiren | i do not have that package | 10:59 |
denbeiren | installing now | 10:59 |
denbeiren | ii is stated now | 10:59 |
directhex|work | right. | 11:00 |
directhex|work | Astra 1 is on 19.2E, and there happens to already be a file in /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-s/ with the required frequency/transponder info in it | 11:00 |
denbeiren | so i fill that "link" in where it sais import existing ...... | 11:01 |
denbeiren | channels.conf import | 11:01 |
directhex|work | run "scan /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-s/Astra-19.2E" and it'll create a channels.conf gile for you | 11:02 |
directhex|work | or you could try copying /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/channels.conf-dvbs-astra.gz to somewhere like /tmp, extract it (it's compressed) and use that. i don't know if any of the channels in that file are appropriate though | 11:03 |
denbeiren | the scanning is running in the terminal screen | 11:03 |
denbeiren | In that dir i can find all of the sats? | 11:04 |
directhex|work | some of them. they're just examples. | 11:06 |

=== behdha [n=behdha@217.166.51.89] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv | ||
denbeiren | so when the scanning is finished,.. do i have to do anything else, or are the channels going to be visible right away? | 11:08 |
directhex|work | which scanning? with "scan"? no, scan is just a utility to generate a channels.conf file. so run scan, put the output from it into a file, and give mythtv that file as an initial channels.conf file - it should then be able to rescan & fill in any blanks by itself | 11:09 |
=== behdha is now known as deffcon | ||
denbeiren | aha | 11:10 |
denbeiren | the only thing then is how to save that output to a file, because the scan is finished, and i'm on the cursor now | 11:10 |
deffcon | laga : the problem i had yesterday about " no menu text in mythtv" had to do with fonts --> the problem is solved now | 11:12 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, re-run it, and send the output to a file with > | 11:13 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, all unix commands have two types of output - STDOUT (for output) and STDERR (for errors). you can redirect either or both into a file (with > filename) or another program as input (with | appname) | 11:14 |
denbeiren | so scan Astra-19.2E stdout (filename) ? | 11:18 |
denbeiren | i'm sorry i don't know a whole lot about unixcommands | 11:19 |
directhex|work | scan /path/to/scan/input/file > /path/to/outputfile | 11:24 |
denbeiren | and save is as blabla.conf ? | 11:26 |
directhex|work | yeah | 11:26 |
directhex|work | there are also a lot of channels.conf examples on the net. you could google for channels.conf and the name of your satelite provider | 11:27 |
denbeiren | can i load multiple .conf files, or do i have to merge them into one file? | 11:28 |
directhex|work | you'd have to merge them, i suspect. i really don't know, i use dvb-t so the extra step of filling in all this transponder mumbo-jumbo isn't neccessary | 11:30 |
denbeiren | there aren't a whole lot of flemish/dutch channels available here,.. so i have to use dbv-s | 11:31 |
denbeiren | failed to parse the file :s | 11:32 |
denbeiren | the file is there, and i can open it in the terminalscreen | 11:35 |
denbeiren | what am i doing wrong here? | 11:35 |
laga | i suggest we start a table for initial transponders in a wiki somewhere | 11:46 |
laga | or add them to those dro-down menus in mythtv (currently only available for dvb-t) | 11:46 |
directhex|work | laga, yes! | 11:46 |
laga | yes to what? | 11:47 |
=== laga is now running amd64, yay | ||
directhex|work | laga, really? 0.20.2 or trunk? | 11:49 |
denbeiren | i'm on amd64 as well | 11:49 |
laga | directhex|work: trunk | 11:49 |
laga | i have yet to install mythtv | 11:49 |
laga | well, rather: make packages for amd64 | 11:49 |
directhex|work | okay, when someone has myth on amd64, can they test something for me? | 11:49 |
denbeiren | i can | 11:49 |
laga | depends | 11:49 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, are you on trunk or 0.20.2? | 11:50 |
denbeiren | absolutely no idea | 11:50 |
denbeiren | mythbuntu | 11:50 |
laga | that's 0.20.2 | 11:50 |
denbeiren | gutsy | 11:50 |
denbeiren | but no further knowledge | 11:51 |
directhex|work | okay. can you install the "build-essential" and "libfuse-dev" packages? | 11:51 |
denbeiren | installing build | 11:52 |
directhex|work | download http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/djmount/djmount-0.71.tar.gz and extract it to /tmp | 11:53 |
directhex|work | djmount is a basic way of viewing UPnP media shares. UPnP in theory makes sharing media across different apps on a network trivial. in practice, i think mythtv's implementation is broken on amd64 | 11:54 |
denbeiren | could you give me the exact terminalcommands please? it would be so much faster | 11:54 |
directhex|work | cd /tmp && wget http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/djmount/djmount-0.71.tar.gz && cd djmount* && ./configure && mak | 11:54 |
directhex|work | e | 11:54 |
directhex|work | that's make at the end, not mak | 11:54 |
laga | forgot to extract it? | 11:54 |
directhex|work | whoops | 11:55 |
directhex|work | let's try again | 11:55 |
directhex|work | cd /tmp && wget http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/djmount/djmount-0.71.tar.gz && tar zxvf djmount* && cd djmount* && ./configure && make | 11:55 |
directhex|work | should spend about 90 seconds on the "configure" bit, 32 seconds on the "make" bit | 11:55 |
denbeiren | installing libdev | 11:56 |
denbeiren | running your command | 11:57 |
denbeiren | anything else? | 11:58 |
directhex|work | yeah. did that all finish? | 11:58 |
denbeiren | yes | 11:58 |
directhex|work | okay. run "cd djmount && mkdir testy && sudo modprobe fuse && sudo ./djmount testy" | 11:59 |
denbeiren | done | 12:00 |
directhex|work | there's now a folder called "testy". if your mythtv backend is running, then there should be a subfolder for the mythtv machine inside it | 12:00 |
directhex|work | i.e. "ls testy" will show something like "MythTV AV UPnP Server" | 12:01 |
laga | ffs. | 12:01 |
directhex|work | laga, ? | 12:01 |
denbeiren | devices mediacenter: MythTV AV Media Server | 12:01 |
laga | directhex|work: you were right. the kde control center f'ed up cups config | 12:01 |
directhex|work | laga, i'm ALWAYS right! | 12:01 |
laga | heh | 12:01 |
laga | i added it in localhost:631 and it works like a charm | 12:02 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, okay. now do "ls -a testy/*" - if my hunch is right, the only thing in the "mediacenter: MythTV AV Media Server" folder should be a single file | 12:02 |
laga | alright, it's a bit too black and white for my taste, but at least i can print. | 12:02 |
denbeiren | denbeiren@mediacenter:/tmp/djmount-0.71/djmount$ sudo ls -a testy/ | 12:03 |
denbeiren | . .. .debug devices mediacenter: MythTV AV Media Server | 12:03 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, don't forget the * at the end - otherwise it'll not look INSIDE that folder | 12:04 |
denbeiren | ls: testy/*: No such file or directory | 12:04 |
directhex|work | erm... odd | 12:05 |
directhex|work | okay, do "cd testy/med<TAB>" i.e. start typing and hit the tab key to fill in the blanks | 12:05 |
denbeiren | sudo cd testy/med | 12:06 |
directhex|work | don't use sudo for this | 12:07 |
denbeiren | -bash: cd: testy/med: Permission denied | 12:07 |
directhex|work | bleh | 12:07 |
directhex|work | okay, do "sudo bash" to get a full root session | 12:07 |
directhex|work | THEN do "cd testy/med<TAB>" | 12:08 |
denbeiren | cd testy/mediacenter\:\ MythTV\ AV\ Media\ Server/ | 12:08 |
denbeiren | this one? | 12:08 |
directhex|work | yes | 12:08 |
directhex|work | hit enter, you should be in that folder. now do "ls -a" | 12:09 |
denbeiren | . .. .status | 12:09 |
directhex|work | okay, so far so good (well, so bad, but it would mean you have the same behaviour as me" | 12:10 |
directhex|work | now do "grep Result .status" | 12:10 |
directhex|work | if i'm right, it should say " | +- Result = -104 (UPNP_E_OUTOF_MEMOR)" | 12:10 |
denbeiren | | +- Result = -104 (UPNP_E_OUTOF_MEMOR) | 12:11 |
directhex|work | okay, confirmation! time to report a bug. laga! you want this in launchpad, or shall i send it straight to mythtv trac? | 12:12 |
laga | directhex|work: this should go to trac | 12:12 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, thanks for your time. now run "cd && fusermount -u /tmp/djmount*/djmount/testy && logout" to go back to normal | 12:13 |
denbeiren | bash: logout: not login shell: use `exit' | 12:14 |
directhex|work | okay, there's that tool | 12:14 |
directhex|work | i tend to use ctrl-d | 12:15 |
directhex|work | which is quicker | 12:15 |
laga | hum, sound is still broken here. blah. | 12:15 |
directhex|work | laga, you don't happen to keep channel logs do you? | 12:15 |
laga | !logs | 12:15 |
ubotu | Channel logs can be found at http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs | 12:15 |

directhex|work | laga, i pastebinned something within the last week relating to upnp (complete output from .status). a grep for pastebin.ca, grepped again for "hex" would probably find it | 12:19 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, "cd && sudo fusermount -u /tmp/djmount*/djmount/testy" | 12:19 |
denbeiren | umount: /tmp/djmount-0.71/djmount/testy: not mounted | 12:20 |
laga | directhex|work: nothing :// | 12:20 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, okay, you should be fine then | 12:20 |
denbeiren | is everything deleted and uninstalled as well? | 12:20 |
directhex|work | laga, bleh. is there any point in submitting a bug before this evening then? :/ | 12:21 |
laga | *shrug* | 12:21 |
laga | gotta keep your logs :) | 12:21 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, anything in /tmp is deleted every time you boot. as for build-essential and libfuse-dev, you could remove them if you wanted to. build-essential is useful to have around though | 12:21 |
denbeiren | ok | 12:21 |
denbeiren | so could you help me out in that channel.conf file ? pretty please :) | 12:22 |
denbeiren | how do i merge these two files? astra192.conf astra282.conf | 12:23 |
directhex|work | cat astra*.conf >> merged.conf | 12:23 |
directhex|work | and make sure you give myth the full /path/to/the/file.conf since it might not be looking in the same folder as you | 12:23 |
denbeiren | and now for the loading of the file,.. | 12:23 |
denbeiren | i still get errors :s | 12:24 |
denbeiren | (/home/denbeiren/merged) | 12:24 |
directhex|work | denbeiren, is the file called merged or merged.conf? | 12:25 |
denbeiren | merged.conf | 12:25 |
directhex|work | then you have to say merged.conf | 12:25 |
denbeiren | failed to parse merged.conf | 12:26 |
directhex|work | okay, can you put the contents of the file onto a site like pastebin.ca ? | 12:26 |

denbeiren | any ideas? | 12:32 |

[_Trimble_] | everything just works :) | 05:18 |
laga | heh | 05:18 |
laga | still needs some polishing, IMHO | 05:19 |
[_Trimble_] | i was never able to get wireless network working on knoppmyth.. lirc needed to be compiled, and the headers weren't even on the iso... | 05:19 |

superm1 | <superm1> Hi guys, is there a plan as to when 2.6.22-11.29 is going to be tagged? Is there a schedule for these sorts of things to watch? | 07:08 |

tgm4883 | thx | 07:25 |
frink_ | if i just kill gnome-screensaver will anything break do you think? | 07:25 |

laga | i'd like to note that a 64biit libc6 does not work well wihenthe rest of your system is 32bit | 07:25 |
tgm4883 | frink_ why do you want to kill it? | 07:25 |
frink_ | tgm4883: because it (presumably) keeps blanking the screen and why ever would I want a screensaver on a PVR? | 07:26 |
tgm4883 | CBiLL didn't get back to you? | 07:26 |
laga | frink_: because your nice plasma might get burn-in | 07:26 |
tgm4883 | sorry, i thoung he was going to answer you | 07:26 |
tgm4883 | I was actually thinking your problem was dpms | 07:27 |
tgm4883 | not gnome screensaver | 07:27 |
laga | yeah, PMs is the devil | 07:27 |
frink_ | laga: Well there is that and yeah, I guess it would be nicer if it were on and just didnt blank the screen during video play or livetv | 07:27 |
frink_ | tgm4883: Yeah it actually did look like a dpms blank | 07:28 |
frink_ | tgm4883: But I thought I would kill the screensaver and see if it stopped anyway. | 07:28 |
tgm4883 | gnome screensaver is more of a fade to black | 07:28 |
tgm4883 | I had that problem yesterday | 07:28 |
tgm4883 | you can test and disable it from the command line | 07:30 |

tgm4883 | xset -dpms | 07:32 |

MythbuntuGuest66 | How can I change the screen resolution in MythBuntu? It selected a very high resolution, which I want to decrease (it's a backend, which I'm accessing via remote desktop) | 08:02 |
laga | MythbuntuGuest66: hum. | 08:03 |
laga | "remote desktop"? vnc? | 08:03 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | actually, it's VMware Server console. | 08:03 |
laga | oh. | 08:04 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | I'm testing putting my backend within a VM, talking to MySQL in another VM, with a remote frontend on a Mac Mini | 08:04 |
laga | well, if you're logged in to X, you can run start xorg-config from mythbutnu-control-centre | 08:04 |
laga | MythbuntuGuest66: how are you accessing your capture cards? | 08:04 |

MythbuntuGuest66 | For some reason, the "Launch Xorg Config" button is grayed out in control center | 08:10 |
superm1 | MythbuntuGuest66, you have to apt-get update/apt-get upgrade | 08:11 |
superm1 | there is a newer control centre | 08:11 |
superm1 | and then install displayconfig-gtk | 08:11 |
superm1 | lots has changed since the last alpha | 08:11 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | ahh.. great, I'll try that. | 08:11 |
superm1 | we're looking to have a new disk very soon that will reflect it all | 08:11 |
laga | superm1: still alpha? | 08:12 |
superm1 | laga, i'm not sure if i want to call the next one beta | 08:12 |
superm1 | i want to see how well the xfce stuff works out | 08:12 |
superm1 | and DaveMorris has to commit the changes for it yet | 08:12 |
laga | ah, right | 08:12 |
laga | and gutsy is still alpha, too | 08:12 |
laga | and personally, i do notice that. :) | 08:12 |
laga | btw, you were gonna elaborate on debconf.py. | 08:13 |
superm1 | but comparatively, we are following the gutsy cycle | 08:13 |
superm1 | so we really should be very close to beta too | 08:13 |
superm1 | laga, okay so regarding debconf.py, you have to either implement a full debconf frontend in your app | 08:14 |
superm1 | similar to what ubiquity does | 08:14 |
superm1 | or you have to call a noninteractive frontend | 08:14 |
superm1 | which i was doing for a bit in mythbuntu-live-autostart | 08:14 |
superm1 | i dont recall if i'm still doing that | 08:14 |
laga | hum | 08:14 |
superm1 | and when you call the noninteractive frontend, it forks back into your app (is my understanding) | 08:14 |
superm1 | so it is then the parent process | 08:14 |
laga | that's above my head. i'll put it on the back burner... | 08:15 |
superm1 | so what really *should* be done for us i think is to write a shell script that will be passed a heck of a lot of parameters to update all the debconf stuff that gets changed by the control-centre | 08:15 |
superm1 | because then you figure you can pass all those debconf questions like remote frontends, mythweb, lirc changes | 08:16 |
superm1 | either way if that isnt done, something needs to be figured out before release | 08:16 |
superm1 | or suddenly people are going to be presented with a question during an apt-get update out of the blue | 08:16 |
laga | hum. | 08:18 |
laga | and what so bad about using debconf-communicate | 08:19 |
superm1 | well if you can find a way to stop the debconf frontend | 08:19 |
superm1 | more power to you there | 08:19 |
superm1 | i just know i ran into the issue of not being able to | 08:19 |
laga | uh | 08:20 |
laga | is it it a locking problem? | 08:20 |
superm1 | yes | 08:21 |
superm1 | since you cant stop the debconf frontend | 08:21 |
superm1 | debconf is locked | 08:21 |
laga | i'm not sure if i understand. do you mean - if a debconf frontend is already running, eg spawned by dpkg, i can't open a new one? | 08:22 |
superm1 | right | 08:24 |
superm1 | and if you start one via the control centre, you can't start dpkg | 08:24 |
laga | debconf-communicate | 08:25 |
laga | debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable | 08:25 |
laga | alright. | 08:25 |
laga | but i dont understand why i'd have to stop the other debconf process. i mean, it's there for a reason - why can't i say "sorry, debconf is busy, please close dpkg and apt-get"? | 08:25 |
superm1 | well apt is used by the control centre | 08:26 |
superm1 | to install things | 08:26 |
laga | oh, so it's locked all the time when the control centre is run? | 08:27 |
superm1 | well there are two stages | 08:28 |
superm1 | one where all the packages are installed | 08:28 |
superm1 | and its locked there | 08:28 |
superm1 | and then the one when everything else is done | 08:28 |
laga | i still don't know why we have to do things with debconf while it's locked | 08:30 |

superm1 | but the problem is that you can't stop the debconf process | 08:32 |

superm1 | well if your spawning it like how i was | 08:32 |

MythbuntuGuest66 | Thanks for the tips.. I updated & installed displayconfig-gtk. I was able to change my resolution somewhat.. Most choices resulted in an application crash, when it did change I would restart X and it would display at a different resolution. Very Odd... | 08:38 |

MythbuntuGuest66 | yup. But, a quick trip to vi to edit xorg.conf gets me back to a decent resolution. | 08:43 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | Shoulda just done that in the first place. | 08:43 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | Mythbuntu looks promising. But, for my backend-only needs, I think I will end up going with a server oriented distro. | 08:44 |
Daviey | MythbuntuGuest66: why? | 08:45 |
laga | ubuntu is server-oriented. | 08:45 |
Daviey | MythbuntuGuest66: Ubuntu can be server oriented | 08:45 |
laga | just dont install the gui crap, sudo aptitude install mythtv-backend-master and you're done | 08:45 |
Daviey | And.. if you mix & match distro's - the packages could mismatch, come up date time | 08:46 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | The setup seems to assume HTPC frontend orientation.. I can see how it would greatly simplify setup for a frontend or combined back/front. But for my needs, the pre-configuration just gets in the way. | 08:46 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | My server option may be Ubuntu-server. | 08:46 |
tgm4883_laptop | do a gutsy server install then | 08:47 |
Daviey | So what is the difference between a mythbuntu backend (No X) and ubuntu server + mythtv-backend? | 08:47 |
laga | MythbuntuGuest66: there is no difference between ubuntu and myghbuntu. it's just a different set of packages. all packages are aailable to both distros. | 08:47 |
tgm4883_laptop | That would be practically zilch | 08:47 |
Daviey | exactly.. | 08:48 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | Maybe not much. But, for server, I would go with Feisty at this point, and just install what I need. | 08:49 |
=== tgm4883 shrugs | ||
tgm4883 | I wouldn't go with feisty | 08:49 |
tgm4883 | but to each his own | 08:49 |
laga | i wouldn't use gutsy on a server yet, agreed. | 08:49 |
Daviey | Well we are doing weekly fesity builds... so you are fine for now | 08:50 |
Daviey | but I wouldn't be concerned with running Gutsy server on a home-lan | 08:50 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | My experience with gutsy seems to show it's still a bit bleeding edge. And, for simple backend use, I don't see any big advantages to using gutsy. | 08:50 |
laga | Daviey: i'm seeing lots of segfaults in kbuntu gutsy here. | 08:50 |
laga | it's not quite there yet for a production system | 08:51 |
laga | TBH, some issues i find rather embarrassing, but since it's alpha i'll keep my mouth shut | 08:51 |
Daviey | laga: yeah.. unionfs is whinging at boot up for me | 08:51 |
tgm4883 | MythbuntuGuest66, I would expect Gutsy to be a bit bleeding edge, you know, being all not released and all | 08:51 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | Yeah, exactly. Which is why I would stick with stable release for my use. | 08:52 |
tgm4883 | well good luck with that | 08:53 |
laga | i'll extend the weekly builds to edgy, i think | 08:53 |
laga | cant find motivation right now, though | 08:54 |
Daviey | laga: Wouldn't dapper be more pressing than edgy | 08:54 |
Daviey | There is little reason for people to be using edgy, but dapper is th current LTS | 08:55 |
laga | for weekly builds? no | 08:56 |
laga | directhex is maintaining 0.20.2 builds for dapper | 08:56 |
superm1 | laga, mind you that ubiquity doesn't ever stop their debconf communicator | 08:56 |
superm1 | until the app closes | 08:56 |
laga | Daviey: our packaging stuff won't backport easily to dapper anyways. i don't want to spend time backporting it. | 08:57 |
laga | or maintaining different package sets | 08:57 |
superm1 | it was bad enough doing the SRU's | 09:00 |
superm1 | i can't imagine doing that stuff regularly | 09:00 |
laga | yup | 09:00 |
laga | even edgy is gonna be a pain for mythweb | 09:00 |
laga | tbh, i couldn't care less right now | 09:00 |
laga | superm1: ok, it should be easy enough to close the debconf frontend. if we start it, we ought to have some control over it | 09:01 |
superm1 | laga, like i said if you figure out how to, more power to you :) | 09:03 |
laga | ya, maybe i'll give it a try | 09:04 |
laga | had a different thought | 09:04 |
laga | i've seen we can "reconfigure" packages in the control centre. will this spawn this apt window? where you could set the password then? | 09:04 |
MythbuntuGuest66 | Thanks for the help. Later. | 09:05 |
superm1 | laga, those reconfigure options dont call apt actually | 09:06 |
superm1 | they end up just rewriting out config files | 09:06 |
laga | ok. | 09:10 |
superm1 | that's part of the problem | 09:18 |
superm1 | those debconf questions aren't marked as 'seen' | 09:18 |
superm1 | so they get shown later if someone decides to use any type of update manager to update | 09:19 |
