Davieybendailey: erm.. variable03:10
laga22 bugs left...03:11
bendaileyok the script does weighting based on bandwidth03:11
Davieybendailey: > 400Gb's03:11
bendaileyDaviey: so if I set you to 400GB/mon in the db you should be safe?03:11
Davieyyep03:11
DavieySo if it exceeds 400Gb/month - i will get no further requests?03:12
bendaileyno it won't kill it at 400 but the script is structured so all mirrors should run out of bandwidth at the same time03:13
laga20 bugs left *sigh*03:18
Davieybendailey: cool03:19
Davieywould it be worth adding a 'hard rule' ?03:19
Davieyif it exceeds X, then no further traffic?03:19
bendaileyThe db has an active field for the host all that need be done is flip the field to zero and it stops getting traffic03:20
bendaileyI can only track hits and not actual bandwidth so hard rule would be hard to determine03:20
bendaileydoes anyone know when the announcement is going to hit the site?03:21

tgm4883_laptopDaveMorris, i'll upload it as soon as superm1 or Daviey posts08:16
superm1camelreef, then if you have the latest version, you should have xfce stuff all installed too08:16
superm1version latest is 0.7 i believe08:16
camelreefsuperm1, and yes, I have all the xfce stuff in. I guess I need to restart gdm once in a while08:16
DaveMorrisyeah, but openbox isn't removed, and the session scipt might not be changed08:16
superm1foxbuntu, on yours "Fatal error: Call to undefined function drupal_add_js() in /home/foxmfox6/public_html/modules/ubercart/uc_store/uc_store.module on line 328"08:16

camelreefhow do I check the screensaver thing now ?08:30
MitoTranin|Workok, my home is seeding the i38608:30
hansoffate|workDaveMorris: sfce?08:30

superm1okay download iso page is all setup08:30
hansoffate|workoh yea, i heard08:31
tgm4883_laptopsuperm1, should the torrents be listed on the download page?08:31
superm1tgm4883, drop the "The Ubuntu Forums, http://www.ubuntuforums.org.  Please be sure to add a mythbuntu tag when making a post."08:31

tgm4883_laptopalso, there are a couple new threads in the mythbuntu forums08:33
camelreefhmm, I've lost the frontend logs08:33
superm1okay everything on the download page should be good now08:38
superm1has the torrents and such08:38
foxbuntubendailey, did you write the php download script?08:39
foxbuntuor superm1 you can prob do this08:39
foxbuntucomment out my mirror from the rotation for now08:40
MitoTranin|Worksuperm1: Should the download page say something about requesting users to use the torrents, or have a link to a torrent client or something?08:40
MitoTranin|Workgenerally you'd think people would know, but this is kinda geared to be usable by a novice, and a novice might not know what a torrent is, etc.08:40
bendaileyfoxbuntu: yes08:41
camelreefOK, I'll let you finish your release, and come back for my lost mythfrontend logs later, good luck, have fun08:41
bendaileyfoxbuntu it is in a db now I will deactivate you08:41
foxbuntuprob for best results comment out my host until DNS replicates08:41
foxbuntushould just be a little while...maybe an hour or 208:41
superm1MitoTranin|Work, well i think that novices shouldn't mess too much with needing to get torrent client and such, but that should be on the front page announce at minimum08:41
MitoTranin|Workfoxbuntu: which mirror is yours?08:42
MitoTranin|WorkI just got a dns error when it gave me us-il.cdimages.mythbuntu.org08:42
MitoTranin|Workis that yours?08:42
foxbuntuthats mine08:42
MitoTranin|Workk :) just checking, cause if not, someone else was having a problem too :)08:42

foxbuntumoving those isos out of my web dir08:43
foxbuntuto a vhost08:43
MitoTranin|Workus-ca and us-az work sofar08:43
foxbuntusuperm1, I had bendailey change the DNS so it points to mirror.foxmediasystems.com08:43

foxbuntuMitoTranin|Work, I would have, but I wasn't planning on having my web site up and in build process yet08:44

MitoTranin|Worktgm4883_laptop: if you're seeding the torrent, then I am08:46
tgm4883_laptopi am08:46
DaveMorrisI'm getting them direct, and I'll seed once I have got them08:46
MitoTranin|WorkI didn't have it yet, so I figured I'd download that one via torrent so I could help seed it08:46
tgm4883_laptopi'll be back in about 20-30 minutes08:46
tgm4883_laptopthats fine, just FYI08:46
MitoTranin|WorkI'll just grab it direct then08:46

MitoTranin|Work:)08:47
DaveMorrisports are closed at uni :(08:47
tgm4883_laptopit's also seeding at home, so if it continues after _laptop is out, then your good to go08:47
MitoTranin|Workwell it looks like someone else is seeding it now too, so I'll stay connected08:47
=== pdragon04 will download and seed when he gets home
MitoTranin|Workjust easier to help seed and download at the same time, than just downloading, and then seeding...08:47
pdragon04don't most torrent clients do that by default?08:48
MitoTranin|Workpdragon04: I was refering to direct downloading08:48
pdragon04ahh08:48
MitoTranin|Workthe i386 I downloaded directly last night08:48
MitoTranin|Workthen today I set it up so that it would seed08:49
MitoTranin|Workbut since I don't have an amd64 system, I hadn't downloaded that yet08:49
MitoTranin|Workso instead of downloading it direct, then seeding, I figured I'd just download it via the torrent too :)08:49

superm1or is it already in the archive with that version09:53
DaveMorrissuperm1: the last release they did was in 04, cvs branch has just had bug fixes whilst they work on unstable, so no new release yet.  Should I do the release from 04 or cvs from stable?09:54
DaveMorrisit's not in the archives yet09:54
superm1DaveMorris, well if its not in the archives, the NEW deadline has already passed09:54
superm1it will have to live on your PPA for now, but once hardy opens up we can push it there09:54

camelreefhello again everyone11:31
MythbuntuGuest24it will host videos files of all sorts11:31
camelreefhow did the release go ?11:31
directhexa media server, eh?11:31
MythbuntuGuest24later on i plan on making a htpc11:31
tgm4883_laptopok11:31
MythbuntuGuest24how would i go about streaming all the video files from teh server to the htpc11:31
=== directhex wonders if the mythbuntu lot will be peeved if he links a pre-release of his article
MythbuntuGuest24can i run ubuntu on the backend of the server and use mythbuntu on the htpc?11:32
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest24, the easiest way (and IMHO, the best way) is to make the HTPC (frontend or frontend/backend) use NFS and mount the media shares locally11:32
camelreefI have just had my first experience with the upstream "friendly" MythTV dev community11:32
camelreefI dared open a ticket11:32
directhexMythbuntuGuest24, ideally, you don't want to have an "htpc" and "server"11:32
tgm4883_laptopdirecthex, what?11:33
MythbuntuGuest24why is that?11:33
camelreef!bug 13653311:33
ubotuLaunchpad bug 136533 in mythtv "OSD fonts badly rendered when watching 16:9 TV" [Low,Confirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/13653311:33
MythbuntuGuest24because i plan to share the files to other pcs in the LAN11:33
directhexMythbuntuGuest24, mythtv is client-server. put the tv cards, and mythbackend, into the server11:33
directhexMythbuntuGuest24, then you can use a low-noise wife-friendly frontend or twelve11:33
MythbuntuGuest24excellent11:34
camelreefhttp://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/404411:34
tgm4883_laptopdirecthex, semantics11:34
MythbuntuGuest24but i also understand that mythbuntu is easier to use correct?11:34
directhextgm4883, you'd have an nfs server and a mythtv machine separately?11:34
MythbuntuGuest24so can i use mythbuntu as frontend and just use mythtv as a backend11:34
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest24, directhex is correct.  Ideally, what you want is to have your backend be seperate, in the other room.  Then have frontends that can be smaller and quieter located around connected via the network11:35
camelreefGuest24, mythbuntu is ubuntu with MythTV neatly packaged and can be used for both back and frontend11:35
directhexideally. except in my house, where the only working aerial socket is next to the tv :/11:36
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest24, if you are just planning on running mythtv on these systems then yes, install mythbuntu11:36
directhexhence the 8-disk noisy system11:36
MythbuntuGuest24on the server/backend i plan on using it as a filer server and a print server as well11:36
tgm4883_laptopdirecthex, yes you are correct in your setup, I was more pointing out the answer to the question, not talking about ideal setups11:37
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest24, i'd still install mythbuntu then if I were you11:37
tgm4883_laptopthat should be easily setup from within XFCE11:37
MythbuntuGuest24ok11:37
MythbuntuGuest24sounds good11:37
MythbuntuGuest24also you guys recommend 64bit or 32bit?11:38
directhexdoesn't really matter11:38
directhex64-bit should do transcodey things faster11:38
tgm4883_laptopwow, i'm seeding at 1.5Mbps11:38
camelreefI would say 32 if you intent to play VC-1 HD content properly11:38
tgm4883_laptopcamelreef, why is that?11:38
MythbuntuGuest24i dont plan on making the htpc until later on11:38
MythbuntuGuest24maybe a year or so11:39
tgm4883_laptopi'd go with whatever your hardware supports11:39
camelreefI have 64bit and have to strugle with ffmpeg's implementation when the win32codecs couls word=k better11:39
tgm4883_laptopah11:39
directhexMythbuntuGuest24, so you can patch in support for closed-source windows binary codecs like coreavc11:39
directhexMythbuntuGuest24, i'd not use that as a major plus-point personally11:39
camelreefbut the win64codecs do not have the vc-1 (=wmv9) dll11:39
=== Tari [n=Tari@CPE-72-133-204-1.wi.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
camelreefwell, I would say properly displayed 1080p HD without tearing is a plus point11:40
camelreefbut I'm in prod in 64 bit and probably would do better with 3211:40
tgm4883_laptopNote: WMV9 codecs on amd64 currently seem to work only in VLC, the latest version of Mplayer (>= Version 1.0rc1), and Xine.11:40
tgm4883_laptopit's not contained in there ^^^?11:41
camelreefI have mplayer from svn11:41

camelreef2 changes on my system that could have cause it11:49

camelreef2. a mythtv packages update 1 or 2 days ago11:49

lagacamelreef: can you find out how mythfrontend is started please? or bug DaveMorris or superm1 to tell ya11:52
DaveMorrisbtw the screenshot on wikipedia for mythbunu needs updating, but I don't know how to do that11:52
DaveMorriscamelreef: whats the contents of .xsession-errors?11:52
tgm4883_laptopDaveMorris, I'll see what I can do for that11:53
camelreefI have the mythfrontend.desktop on ~/.config/autostart11:53
camelreefand the .desktop file has a dry Exec=mythfrontend11:54
DaveMorrisI think you need to regestiored for it, grab the screen shots from http://www.mythbuntu.org/image/tid/3 I guess11:54
camelreefif this is where you want to specify output redirection11:54
DaveMorristo create logs11:55
camelreefDaveMorris, uh?11:55
DaveMorrissorry my system almost froze and was very slow11:56
DaveMorrisI'm not sure what your trying to do11:56
camelreefDaveMorris, .xsession-ewrrors has all the output that was going to /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log11:56
camelreefthat's ~/.xsessions-errors for the user running mythfrontend11:57
DaveMorrisok11:57
camelreefI have the mythfrontend.desktop on ~/.config/autostart11:58
camelreefand the .desktop file has a dry Exec=mythfrontend11:58
DaveMorristry changing 'Exec=mythfrontend' to 'Exec=mythfrontend >  /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log'11:58
DaveMorrisbut before hand what does 'touch  /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log' give you when you put that into a term11:59
camelreefjust confirming, you want me to edit by hand the following file: /usr/share/applications/mythtv.desktop11:59
DaveMorrisyeah, if you could11:59
camelreefI already deleted /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log and touched it again, then double-checked perms12:00
lagauh12:00
DaveMorrisoh, it should prob be '>>' rather than '>'12:00
camelreef-rw-rw-r--  1 mythtv    mythtv         0 2007-10-03 19:37 mythfrontend.log12:00
lagawait a second :)12:00
camelreefit was not filling when I did the delete/touch/perms12:00
camelreeflaga ?12:01
lagaIMHO, the desktop icon shouldn't log to a file.. i tend to think of /var/log/mythtv as a location for service/daemon logs. however, if it's automatically started it should clearly be logging to that file12:01
lagawhere has startmythtv.sh gone?!12:01
camelreeflaga, so where should that be set ?12:02
lagai have no clue12:02
DaveMorrisIt's coz it's been moved to xfce with the way xfce starts programs12:02
lagait looks like i won't be entirely happy with the move to xfce.12:02
lagaespecially wrt memory usage12:02
DaveMorriswhich is why you can now log out of mythtv and edit your settings on the desktop12:02
camelreefwhat was the logic behinf the xfce move, btw ?12:02
lagai have yet to get some sane numbers, but 128M in XFCE alone is insane.12:02
DaveMorrislaga I run xfce on my 366mhz 128MB laptop no prob, so it's not heavy or anything12:03
lagaDaveMorris: i'll have to get some figures12:03
camelreefoh, this is where my RAM has gone ! I had noticed that I started to swap a bit12:04
DaveMorriscamelreef: looks and feels alot more like kde/gnome which most people are used to, an applet so we can use the network manager thing for wireless networks12:04
DaveMorrislinux will use all your ram up anyway, as it won't bother clearing stuff till it needs it again, I've allways running with 2GB used at work, although the swap never gets touched12:05
camelreefwhat's wrong with sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces? ;o)12:05
camelreefnah nah nah, I understand RAM use and caching, less swapping when not needed12:05
lagaDaveMorris: i was already looking at the numbers w/o cache :)12:06
DaveMorriswell like I said I run it on my 3 laptops ranging from the one mention above upto a 650mhz 256mb machine and they all are surprising responsive, and I can easily do my browsing and everything (OOo is a bitch though)12:07

laga^^12:23
DaveMorriscamelreef: basically they closed it as it's a support question, rather than a bug with mythtv as such.12:23
laga22:39 < sphery> Chutt: Do you think your "Xinerama for recent versions of X" fix ( http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/14520 ) is good for -fixes?  There's a user who seems to be affected by it who was arguing with Daniel on Trac about the validity of his ticket.12:24
laga22:41 < sphery> I think it would be much easier to get him to configure his system correctly if that issue were fixed in -fixes.12:24

DaveMorrisin the usr/share/applications/mythtv.desktop file I added --logfile /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log to the exec bit12:42
