DiggThisHi superm105:02
DiggThis can anyone tell me after installing mythbuntu i get a zen command line then ata 7 saying irq_stat, connection status changed. What does this mean?05:03
troy_sfoxbuntu: Not yet... I would need to compile in the binary blob drivers...05:14
troy_sfoxbuntu: I probably should do that so that we can start the rather massive theming.05:14
foxbuntutroy_s, indeed05:14
troy_sfoxbuntu: In your eyes, what would the priority be -- theme the MythTV interface probably seems logical (and a monumental task really) then provide a desktop wallpaper and minimalist xfce theme05:14
foxbuntuI am working on like 3 things now too05:14
foxbuntulol05:14
troy_sfoxbuntu: Does that make sense to you?05:14
foxbuntunever ending cycle05:14
troy_sfoxbuntu: yeah but it is all for the better... the better people can make things for others, the more our community grows.05:15
foxbuntutroy_s, I think if we can spit out a desktop wall paper and get in contact to get the USplash done while we work on the MythTV theme05:16
MitoTraninhave either of you tried to install Mythbuntu on a system with 256mb ram?05:16
foxbuntuMitoTranin, no, but it should work (slow)05:17
MitoTraninI'm having problems with it locking up at the 94% mark, (where it says "checking for packages to remove") and I was wondering if it had to do with that05:17
MitoTraninfoxbuntu: what was that cd repo bug you were talking about before?05:17
troy_sfoxbuntu: Yes... the usplash will require some animation and such.05:18
troy_sfoxbuntu: Which will take a little time then code.  Not a huge deal.05:18
foxbuntutroy_s, those two items are a pending nasty on my list, the MythTV Theme can get pushed back a little more to complete them05:20
troy_sfoxbuntu: well yeah... the whole thing won't come together until we are further along.  Probably better to just use placeholder bits that are acceptable until then.05:23
troy_sfoxbuntu: In plain language -- a crappy Ubuntu progress bar etc.05:23
troy_sfoxbuntu: The animation and such will take some thinking and design.  I have a pretty good idea where i would like to take it but it will still take time to animate.05:23
troy_sfoxbuntu: The default wallpaper is probably going to be very 1950 -- as in a repeated television motif and the 1950 atomic era small rubber bandy loops repeated.05:24
troy_sfoxbuntu: In my eyes, the most important part of the presentation is the actual MythTV theme... I want that to be as top shelf as possible and as embroiled in the design theme as it can get.  I don't expect that to be easy as we will be wrestling with the button look versus font rendering on the fly etc.05:25
foxbuntutroy_s, exactly. You are dead on as usual.05:26
troy_sfoxbuntu: You can code correct?05:27
foxbuntuyup05:27
foxbuntuthe USplash animation I have no idea05:27
foxbuntuyou said you have someone for that however right?05:28
troy_sfoxbuntu: that might be useful in terms of fixing usplash.  Apparently the code (as per seveas) is in place for the autodetection of widescreens.  My gut tells me that the ratio (16x10 over 16x9) is too low and therefore is selecting the 4x5 ratio usplash.05:28
troy_sfoxbuntu: if we can look into that, it might be a quick fix and something that aesthetically would benefit much of the Ubuntu platform.05:29
troy_sfoxbuntu: and yes, tonic-pushcart is a usplash wizard as well as a top shelf guy.  He might be able to help out this project, and if he is too busy, he can probably get you up to speed very quickly.  His code is clean and well commented too.05:29
foxbuntutroy_s, the issue with that is the data provided to the video card about TV's via their connection type. There is no industry standard for it05:30
troy_sfoxbuntu: I think it might be possible to fix it... seveas seems to think it is probably because 16x10 is the reported res and 16x9 is closer to the 4x3 ratio.05:32
=== superm1 walks in the roome unannounced
superm1foxbuntu, what'd you need?05:32
troy_s(all of this aspect ratio stuff really needs to be resolved in a graceful way from a higher level really -- along with a standard 'orgin' point that doesn't move so that people can design for both ratios using a center anchor or something)05:33
foxbuntutroy_s, agreed. I will look at it as we get closer to that05:34
DiggThissuperm1: installing prop vid drivers on mythbuntu causes so much havoc that reinstall has to be done!!05:37
superm1DiggThis, huh?05:37
superm1why?05:37
superm1it should work as of beta05:37
DiggThisive now tried it in installation mode and in desktop mode and both times the system becomes unusable by dropping to command line and spitting out irq_stat connection status changed errors. it really sux05:39
superm1DiggThis, that doesn't sound like a misinstallation05:39
superm1DiggThis, did you check out the logs?05:39
superm1/var/log/messages05:39
superm1/var/log/syslog05:39
superm1/var/log/Xorg.0.log*05:39
DiggThiscant actually get into the syste,05:40
DiggThissystem05:40
superm1single user mode even?05:40
DiggThisill try recovery give me a sec05:40
DiggThisno recovery spits out that garbage as well...05:42
DiggThisunusable system!!05:43
superm1something really messed up must be going on with your system05:43
superm1if that's happening05:43
superm1because the proprietary drivers dont get loaded in single user mode05:43
DiggThisthats what i figured but vesa works fine which is weird but prop no05:44

superm1but i mean in single user mode it doesnt even load vesa05:44
superm1so something else must have occurred here05:44
superm1for things to break05:44
DiggThisam i doomed to never have prop drivers?05:44
DiggThisall i get is some line saying zen then a randon number then irq_05:45
DiggThisstat then connection changed05:45
superm1are you sure that is the *only* thing you changed05:46
superm1when you rebooted?05:46
DiggThispositive did it on purpose05:46
superm1any odd hardware in the machine?05:46
superm1is this amd64?05:46
DiggThisopened fine in vesa then when i went to install prop driver and reboot - nothing.05:47
superm1well single user mode brings you right to a console though05:47
DiggThison it it a core 2 duo05:47
superm1so i dont know how this can be possible05:47
DiggThiscould it be ahci but i dont think so though05:47
DiggThis?05:47
superm1you can mess with io apic and acpi options05:47
superm1for boot parameters05:47
superm1but they shouldn't have changed o05:48
superm1you sure that you're not at a console in single user mode?05:48
superm1that it just hangs?05:48
superm1eg hit enter and see if you really do have a prompt05:48
DiggThisi mean it is a dual boot and vista works great but mythbuntu no after prop driver install05:48
DiggThisa prompt comes up when i press enter but it does not stop and starts spitting again05:49
superm1okay can you ssh in?05:49

DiggThishave not tried05:49
superm1well the only way your going to get at the logs it sounds like is via ssh05:50
superm1to find out what is really happening here05:50
DiggThiswouldnt even know where to start with ssh05:50
superm1ssh user@machine05:50
superm1and then those exact places i said05:50

superm1network05:51
DiggThisa linux network or can it be windows as well?05:51
superm1you can do it from windows if you use putty05:51
superm1or cygwin05:51
DiggThiswhich is better?05:51
DiggThiseasier?05:51
superm1putty is easier05:53
DiggThisk05:53
DiggThisill download now and get back in 5 mins05:53
DiggThissuperm1: update - impossible to do cause network card not activated in 'spit out' modes06:00
DiggThisany other suggestions?06:00
superm1DiggThis, boot into normal mode06:00
superm1and the network will activate in the background06:00
DiggThisill try it06:01
dwf_starbandWith MythTV, if the capture card has an encoder can a p3 665mhz with 384mb of ram capture and view live tv?06:01
superm1probably stuggle playing it back06:02
superm1you'll have to try though06:02
dwf_starbandok thanks, im still playing with it on my main computer, just wondering about my options06:02
superm1dwf_starband, not even necessarily live struggle06:03
superm1just in general06:03
dwf_starbandmight struggle showing any video?06:04
superm1yeah06:04
superm1unless you have hardware decoding06:04
superm1via like an nvidia card06:04
dwf_starbandok, thanks, i have an nvidia card, does it have hardware decoding?06:04
Coded1is there a way to connect the vga port on a laptop to component on my hd-tv?06:04
Tarinot easily, I don't think06:05
superm1yeah there are ways06:05
superm1but like Tari said06:05
superm1there are standalone converters you can buy06:06
foxbuntusuperm1, I had no idea glade3 exsited06:07
superm1foxbuntu, what you mean?06:07
foxbuntufor building those glade tads06:07
foxbuntutabs*06:07
superm1how do you think it was done06:07
superm1haha06:07
Coded1cool, I have a p4 laptop with an ati card, right now i have it connected to my 360 as a media server running xp/tversity, i wanna change to linux since ive been getting kinda used to it06:07
foxbuntuI was doing it by hand06:07
foxbuntuseriously....that blew goats06:08
superm1haha funny foxbuntu06:08
Coded1is there a way to set up a media streaming server to an xbox?06:08
Coded1using myth?06:09
superm1Coded1, myth supports some upnp stuff06:09
superm1but i've never worked with it06:09
superm1you can check on the upstream mythtv wiki, mythtv-users mailing list and irc channel #mythtv-users for more info about it06:09

Coded1you think a p4 could upscale SD/DIVX well to 1080p?06:10
superm1well it could, but an easy method to do that is going to be more of your trouble06:10
Coded1it would be a dedicated server06:10
foxbuntusuperm1, I can't get the code to run my subtab06:10
foxbuntuand I built it with glade06:10
superm1foxbuntu, you have to attach a signal06:10
foxbuntuto the main button?06:11
superm1look at the signals done by the other tabs06:11
superm1on the main glade file06:11
foxbuntuthe mcc glade?06:11
superm1you can click each tab button and figure out what signals it emits06:11
troy_sCoded1: realtime?06:11
foxbuntuok06:11
troy_sCoded1: I would think if it were on card, possibly... off card seems unlikely.06:12
foxbuntusuperm1, I already have the button set to tab_change06:12
foxbuntuhowever not clear06:12
Coded1troy_s: not necessarily maybe off by a couple of seconds or so06:12
foxbuntuafter the debuild and install...it just crashes06:12
superm1well it sounds like you broke something then :)06:13
foxbuntuthanks for the help06:13
superm1well publish your branch to your launchpad user06:13
foxbuntuas usual...smart remarks instead of smart answers06:13
superm1i'll look at it06:13
foxbuntulol06:14
foxbuntuok06:14
superm1this is why i told you to do it in a sep branch, i had a feeling things would break :)06:14
foxbuntusince I did bzr branch when i bzr commit does it stick it in mine only then?06:14
Coded1as far as i can tell the main parts will be a function to connect the pc/360 and another to transcode the files, i dont mind using the 360 interface06:14
superm1yeah06:14
superm1foxbuntu, ^06:14
foxbuntuok06:14
superm1Coded1, i'm really not sure about how the streaming to a 360 works06:15
foxbuntuuh... superm1 it said it went to the master06:17
DiggThissuperm1: finally an update for you...EH complete and soft resetting port and sata link down in syslog and messages and in dmesg also in xorg fatal error no screens found error06:17
superm1foxbuntu, if you bzr branch'ed master is local06:17
superm1when you bzr commit06:17
superm1if you bzr bind though, then it binds to master06:17
foxbuntubut it showed up in launchpad now too06:18
superm1um06:18
superm1then you must have branched wrong06:18
foxbuntuI did bzr branch to the master06:18
superm1you did bzr branch http://blah here06:18
superm1branch to master???06:18
superm1what?06:18
foxbunturight06:18
foxbuntu^^06:18
superm1then bzr commit doesn't push06:18
superm1bzr bind causes it to push06:18
superm1or bzr co does06:18
foxbuntuuh oh crap06:19
foxbuntuthats what i did wrong06:19
DiggThiswhat does this all mean superm1?06:19
superm1what did you do?06:19
foxbuntui did a bind earlier06:19
foxbuntuwack that rev then06:19
superm1um06:19
foxbuntucan I break the bind06:19
superm1bzr unbind i think06:19
foxbuntuk06:20
superm1binding to a branch controls where it pushes06:20
superm1so don't do that06:20
superm1the commit should be  very very fast when your not bound anywhere06:21
DiggThissuperm1: any idea what is going on?06:22
superm1DiggThis, the sata link being down, you sure your hardware is good?06:22
superm1and the error in xorg, can you paste bin xorg06:22
foxbuntusuperm1, ok that time it just coomited and didnt push06:23
foxbuntunow what do I do with it?06:23
DiggThissuperm1: k ill pastebin xorg. sata is fine in vista why does it play up in mythbuntu?06:23
superm1push it to a local branch at bzr+ssh://user@bazaar.launchpad.net/~user/mythbuntu/mythbuntu-control-centre06:23
superm1DiggThis, just asking if you know the hardware is fine06:24
DiggThisAs far as i know all works good. all is new hardware and works fine in vista. How do i double-check hardware?06:25
superm1DiggThis, run hardware tests on it all06:26
superm1i suspect you had these hardware errors before the proprietary drivers were installed though06:26
superm1just you are seeing them when something goes wrong with the proprietary drivers because your looking at logs06:26

superm1and restarting07:17
DiggThisok07:18
superm1DiggThis, are you sure that your card is even supported by fglrx?07:20
DiggThisdont know its a brand new card07:21
DiggThisrebooting...07:22
superm1brand new card...07:22
superm1okay well you might have your problem laid out right there07:22
MitoTraninsuperm1: you got a sec?07:23
DiggThisline 66 comment out not working07:23
superm1DiggThis, checkout if you have a /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old then07:24
superm1MitoTranin, sure07:24
DiggThisso my card is too new then?07:24
DiggThisill check07:24
MitoTraninsuperm1: remember my lockup at 94% bug that you said was why the release is the 10/02 release instead of the 10/01 release?07:24
MitoTraninhow do I get around it?  I still can't get an install to finish07:24
superm1DiggThis, that's what i suspect, hopefully that log will prove that07:24
MitoTraninand if I start ssh or terminal or something before my install starts, I can't even get the installer to respond07:25
superm1MitoTranin, you did eventually grab the 10/01 release right?07:25
superm1MitoTranin, you did eventually grab the 10/02 release right?07:25
DiggThissuperm1: i have it07:25
superm1that is07:25
superm1DiggThis, post that07:25
superm1let me take a look at it07:25
DiggThisk07:25
MitoTraninI've never had anything but the 10/02 release07:25
MitoTranin(I didn't know about Mythbuntu until the 1st, so I just waited...)07:25
superm1hrm07:26
superm1well the thing is the workaround is mastered into the disk07:26
superm1so there are no "other" workarounds to try really07:26
MitoTranindon't get me wrong... I like what I see.... (otherwise you guys wouldn't be using my hosting as a mirror :) )07:26
superm1you can attempt to not make any packaging changes07:27
MitoTraninbut I just can't get it installed!07:27
MitoTraninlol07:27
superm1so dont choose proprietary drivers07:27
superm1or change anythign but remote07:27
superm1during install07:27
superm1and see how that works through07:27
MitoTraninI can try that07:27
MitoTraninI always do set it to the proprietary drivers, so I can have tv-out07:27
superm1yeah.  you can do that post install if it comes to it07:28
MitoTraninis there a way to install them after the install?07:28
MitoTranincool, that's what I thought07:28
DiggThissuperm1: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39739/ hopefully you can get to the source of the prob07:29
superm1DiggThis, you have a HD 2600XT don't you.07:30
DiggThisexactly07:30
superm1ha07:30
superm1i figured as much07:30
superm1okay so the problem is this07:30
superm1the 8.41.6 driver came out officially a few weeks ago07:31
superm1it is the minimum driver you need for that card07:31
DiggThiscrap07:31
superm1but the problem is07:31
superm1it cant be included by default in ubuntu07:31
superm1because it breaks functionality of a few other cards07:31
superm1you can install it locally if you'd like07:31
DiggThisjust my luck07:31
DiggThishow do i do it?07:31
superm1DiggThis, more or less its a matter of following this: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide07:33
superm1in "method 2"07:33
superm1but you need to download the newer driver07:33
superm1the 8.41.6 or 8.41.707:33
superm1from the amd website07:33
DiggThisfrom where though?07:33
DiggThisamd07:33
DiggThisk07:33
DiggThisdo they have linux driver?07:34
superm1yeah07:35
DiggThisthx i just saw it07:35
DiggThisgreat ill devote 2moro to this and get back to you about progress. will the wiki walk me though it enough ya think?07:36
superm1it does07:36
DiggThisawesome thx once again superm1 you are a legend!!07:36
superm1no prob DiggThis, hopefully this all works out well for you in the end :)07:36

superm1laga, fyi: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3483843#post348384308:59
superm1eh this isn't good.  there are locks on universe now.  laga get the mythbuntu-control-centre stuff done asap.  it needs to pass against archive admins for exceptions and stuff, so this can turn into major trouble09:07
superm1i just got a 'waiting for distro maintainer to ack' thing on my mythtv upload09:07
superm1laga, also merging all that logging support for ubuntu-mythtv-frontend might end up being more troublesome than expected09:09

lagasuperm1:  i need to run now. i've added tooltips to the experimental options (please proofread and modify them to your taste so we can upload new translation templates). the whole experimental options vbox is greyed out now if there's no backend installed. however, the options are not unselected, eg those tweaks will stay installed.04:31
lagaif you remove the backend04:31

therethinker2Superm1, can you teach me how to upload/merge?05:01
superm1therethinker2, okay so here is how it goes05:02
therethinker2Do I need an SSH key?05:02
superm1you've got your separate branch05:02
superm1yes you will05:02
therethinker2k05:02
superm1what you will do is keep this branch around as a "development" branch05:02
superm1and then in another directory your going to do a "bzr co bzr+ssh://user@bazaar.launchpad.net/~user/mythbuntu/mythbuntu-control-centre"05:02
superm1and that checks out directly from the branch on launchpad05:03
superm1and is bound to that branch05:03
therethinker2okay05:03
superm1so when your ready to merge, you go to that other directory05:03
superm1and type bzr merge OTHERPLACE05:03
superm1where OTHERPLACE is where you were doing development05:03
therethinker2okay05:03
superm1and then when that merge is done, it will tell you if there were conflicts (which hopefully there weren't)05:04
superm1if there weren't, then you type bzr commit from the bound branch05:04
superm1and it pushes it up to launchpad automatically05:04
therethinker2okay05:04
therethinker2thanks05:04
superm1in your development branch then, you can either bzr pull or bzr merge from launchpad if you want to keep it in sync05:05
superm1but it knows exactly what revision it came from, so that's not for sure necessary05:05
superm1it just makes for cleaner easier merges05:05

therethinker2Wait, it  shouldn't take long to do, so it probably don't have to run it at the exact moment...05:19
superm1look at the way that things are done in there05:19
superm1its a fake progress dialog05:19
superm1that just increases percent as things are to be worked on05:19
therethinker2Yeah... it seems that its all for just installing05:19
therethinker2though05:20
superm1well you have to look a little further05:20
superm1that is some more complicated stuff05:20
tgm4883is there a frontend log now?05:20
superm1for installing and removing packages05:20
superm1tgm4883, there was05:20
superm1but its gone05:20
tgm4883:(05:20
tgm4883I like to crash my frontend05:20
therethinker2ahh05:20
superm1tgm4883, how to put it back is a bit complicated too05:20
therethinker2found it... I think :P05:20
tgm4883eh not important05:20
tgm4883I use to think i was crashing the who DE05:20
superm1laga, okay i cleaned up your stuff a little bit.  i'm happy with it now.05:21
tgm4883but since we switched to xfce, I can just crash the frontend05:21
superm1right05:21
tgm4883which kinda sucks05:21
tgm4883but not really05:21
tgm4883also, can we add a third option for frontends MCC05:22
benlakeanyone have issues after using the nice restricted drivers popup to install nvidia drivers on a fresh install?05:22
tgm4883benlake, what kind of issues05:22
superm1tgm4883, what third option?05:22
benlakeafter doing this, X doesn't start05:22
tgm4883frontend/desktop05:22
superm1benlake, check out /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old05:22
superm1see what's up05:23
tgm4883doing just frontend also loads mythbuntu settings, which enables xfce.05:23
tgm4883so on my laptop it set me up to use xfce05:23
superm1tgm4883, but it doesnt setup auto login05:23
benlakethe machine just gave me a prompt, somestimes it does and sometimes not05:23
tgm4883right05:23
superm1when you just install does it?05:23
tgm4883no05:23
superm1so isn't that by default a frontend/desktop05:23
superm1tgm4883, add names to the front of your comments, you got me confused now :)05:24
benlakehmm, it says "Fatal server error: no screens found", well that'll do it05:24
tgm4883heh05:24
superm1benlake, look earlier in the file and see what caused it05:24
benlakeI was hoping I wouldn't have to touch the x config for mythbuntu05:24
tgm4883superm1, when you just install frontend, it sets you env to xfce (it did on my laptop) so the next time you login you are in xfce05:24
benlakeI'm coming from a gentoo machine, those are so temperamental05:25
tgm4883so i was in xfce instead of gnome05:25
tgm4883superm1, because I want to use the frontend on my laptop from applications, not any auto login or such05:25
benlake(II) Primary Device is: PCI 02:02:0 (WW) VESA: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:2:2:0) found (EE) No devices detected.05:26
benlakethat's weird.05:26
benlakehttp://pastebin.org/425105:29
benlakesuperm1: do I need to specify that glx and dri should be loaded?05:30
superm1tgm4883, it shouldn't set the env to xfce05:31
superm1tgm4883, was this with the latest m-c-c05:31
superm1and m-d-s?05:31
tgm4883yea05:31
superm1benlake, wrong log, that is from the failed failsafe05:32
tgm4883cause installing frontend activates mds doesn't it05:32
superm1can you see if you have /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old?05:32
benlakesuperm1: its using the nvidia driver is it not?05:32
superm1tgm4883, well it install m-d-s05:32
benlakesure05:32
superm1but autologin isn't setup unless you turn it on with the other tab05:32
tgm4883right, auto login isn't the issue05:32
superm1i'm pretty sure that is how the behavior should be on a fresh install05:33
superm1tgm4883, was this a new user account?05:33
tgm4883no05:33
superm1or was it the user u ran m-c-c with?05:33
superm1can you check your ~/.dmrc?05:33
superm1see if you have one05:33
tgm4883i only have one user on my laptop05:33
benlakesuperm1: http://pastebin.org/425205:33
superm1benlake, can you edit your xorg.conf and comment out the line with that pci id05:34
superm1its usually around like 66 or so05:34
benlakebut didn't it detect the video card at that ID?05:35
tgm4883i have .dmrc05:35
superm1just comment it out05:35
superm1it can auto detect05:35
superm1x can05:35
superm1tgm4883, can you check the date that was made?05:35
superm1i suspect it was there from an old m-d-s05:36
superm1or m-c-c05:36

benlakesuperm1: there is no device in the conf with that ID05:37
tgm4883Oct 505:37
tgm4883it could be from an old mds i suppose, this wasn't a fresh install of the mcc or frontend, it happened after an update05:37
superm1tgm4883, can you double check it in say a fresh vm?05:37
tgm4883yea, give me a little bit05:38
superm1i'm almost (92.4%) positive that it shouldn't do that05:38
benlakesuperm1: http://pastebin.org/425305:38
superm1benlake, so what happened when you commented out line 66?05:38
superm1and restarted X?05:38
benlakesuperm1: I guess I didn't read you right, doing that now05:39
tgm4883arg, how do i not have a gutsy iso?05:40
tgm4883superm1, quick question, are universe and multiverse default on pre release software and they will be disabled for release?05:43
superm1i'm not sure.05:43
superm1check in #ubuntu+1 i think05:43
tgm4883they have been on for all my installs05:44
tgm4883i'll do that05:44
superm1universe turns on when you install m-c-c from the website05:44
superm1but multiverse doesn't05:44
tgm4883k05:44
superm1and if therethinker2's changes work well, we can probably enable multiverse from m-c-c05:44
tgm4883sweet05:44
therethinker:)05:45
benlakesuperm1: it started!05:45
benlakesuperm1: Now where do I tell it what monitor I have?05:45
tgm4883heh05:51
tgm4883superm1, I think your suppose to move posts like that05:51
superm1benlake, its supposed to detect most of that automatically05:52
superm1you might consider commenting out that hsync and vrefresh lines too05:52
superm1those are fairly automatic05:52
superm1you can also open up nvidia-settings from m-c-c05:52
superm1to do a lot05:52
benlakemcc?05:54
benlakemyth control center?05:54
superm1mythbuntu-control-centre05:55
superm1yes05:55
superm1its in Applications->System05:55
benlakehmm, well it knows what monitor I have, but it doesn't give me its res05:56
superm1like i said comment out those lines05:56
benlakehonestly I think I was forcing a res it doesn't officially support05:56
superm1it will detect the monitor more on its own05:56
benlakecomment out the display all together?05:57
superm1no05:57
superm1the hsync05:57
superm1vrefresh05:57
superm1they restrict the resolutions it can do05:57
benlakek05:57
superm1gotta run myself though05:57
superm1back in a few hours again05:58
therethinker2this is annoying. it runs fine in the python console, but locks up when mcc runs it05:58

therethinker2I pushed, but you can fix it08:28
therethinker2And yeah, I probably did. sorry :P08:28

superm1that overrides my.cnf08:59
lagai've been running with a tweaked msqld for a few months, i'll probably take those values08:59
lagasuperm1: yes.08:59
superm1so how would that overwrite anything possibly?08:59
lagabut maybe the user makes custom changes so i'll make a copy just in case08:59
superm1oic09:00
therethinker2are there any other important  codecs in that repo?09:01
therethinker2Hmm.. should I work on the multi-desktop-enviorment thing?09:02
superm1therethinker2, i'm not sure what else is there that is useful for a mythbuntu box09:03
therethinker2Mult-desktop-env thing?09:03
superm1what mult desktop env thign?09:03
lagathe bug i filed?09:04
therethinker2Like, someone said they wanted to be able to have Kubuntu AND xubuntu09:04
superm1oh yeah therethinker2 if yo ucan do that09:04
superm1that'd rock09:04
superm1therethinker2, is the repo stuff all done then?09:04
therethinker2Yep09:04
superm1awesome let me pull and see09:04
therethinker2I added 2 codecs that were already halfway into it09:04
therethinker2I'll add more if theres any other packages09:04
superm1therethinker2, do you mind if i tweak that gui a little bit?09:07
lagadon't say yes, he'll randomly delete buttons.09:07
superm1haha09:07
superm1no i just want to add some alignment boxes09:07
superm1and change spacing09:07
therethinker2:P09:07
therethinker2Yes, do that09:07
superm1ok09:07
therethinker2Just no button carousing :P09:07
superm1um?09:08
superm1there is a mutliverse button on advanced management09:08
superm1that can't be touched09:08
therethinker2What do you mean09:08
therethinker2can't be touched?09:08
superm1well if you dont have mythtv-backend installed09:08
superm1its greyed out09:08
therethinker2Ohhh :P09:08
therethinker2Maybe I should have moved that somewhere else :P09:08
therethinker2do you want to place it?09:09
superm1yeah put that somewhere else09:09
superm1hm09:09
superm1well actually09:09
superm1perhaps system roles09:09
therethinker2K09:09
superm1and then grey out backend role and frontend role's boxes09:09
superm1if its not enabled09:09
therethinker2k09:09
therethinker2Question:09:09
therethinker2If I install xubuntu-desktop, the package09:09
therethinker2and I have ubuntu-desktop installed09:09
therethinker2then I remove xubuntu-desktop09:10
therethinker2Could that break ubuntu-desktop09:10
superm1No it wouldn't09:10
superm1because you'd still have ubuntu-desktop installed09:10
therethinker2I think I remember messing up like that before...09:10
superm1well it *shouldn't* at least ;)09:10
therethinker2So, basically, I could just have 3 checkboxes acting like the plugin boxes, right?09:10
morphinextherethinker2: when I did something like that it didn't break anything, but now apt-get remport all this crap it wants to autoremove09:11
superm1yeah that sounds good09:11
therethinker2Hmm09:11
therethinker2k09:11
therethinker2morphinex: hmmm09:11

superm1okay gui is a little more tweaked in revno 90.  hopefully no complaints09:19
therethinker2k09:19
therethinker2did you touch the roles tab?09:19
superm1No09:19
superm1only touched the proprietary codecs tab09:19
therethinker2okay09:19
lagasuperm1: wow. some default settings in my.cnf are even 'better' than the tuned ones09:21
superm1therethinker2, something i think is wrong in the detection of whether to enable sensitivity on w32codecs / libdvdcss209:21
lagaunless different config files are installed for different machines (RAM size?)09:21
superm1i just tried turning on and off a few options09:21
superm1and there is some erratic behavior09:21
therethinker2Hm... I agree. I fix it after I get this working09:21
superm1not afaik09:21
superm1Ok.09:21
therethinker2Which *should* work right now...09:22
superm1wow this control centre is really becoming feature filled09:22
therethinker2But it always helps hitting "save" before compiling, doesn't it?09:22
superm1i think for hardy we're going to have to discuss what needs to be moved where09:22
superm1of course :)09:22
therethinker2:P09:22
therethinker2Yeah, this is amazing09:22
superm1i think its a bit more than originally planned, that's for sure09:23
therethinker2Its great though09:23
therethinker2it installs everything you need09:23
superm1yeah09:23
superm1do you issue a refresh of package lists when you enable medibuntu?09:24
superm1or multiverse for that matter?09:24
therethinker2Yep09:24
therethinker2Thats what takes so long09:24
superm1ah so that is probably the delay encountered09:24
superm1is there any way status can be shown for that?09:24
superm1and what happens if internet is down at that time?09:24
lagamaybe you can say that in the progress thingamjic?09:24
therethinker2I was thinking about putting it at a later step09:24
superm1yeah that's feasible09:24
therethinker2and if the internet is down, it will just fail silently, I guess09:25
therethinker2Not sure though09:25
lagayou should refresh when applying the settings and ungrey the w32codecs/libdvdcss stuff afterwards.09:25
therethinker2Yeah, I'll do that09:25
=== superm1 agrees
superm1same thing with when multiverse is off09:25
therethinker2What do you mean?09:25
superm1don't have backend/frontend viewable until apply is hit09:25
superm1have it greyed out09:25

superm1didn't make that connection09:26
superm1therethinker2, forget all the multiverse stuff then i think09:26
therethinker2Why?09:26
superm1because there is no way to install it unless multiverse is on09:26
therethinker2So just remove it09:26

superm1innovative solution to the root terminal issue, but it doesn't appear to work?11:35
therethinker2It did for me11:35
therethinker2:P11:35
therethinker2Thats the bug-fixer's mantra :P11:36
superm1well if you have more than one user logged into the box11:36
superm1that breaks11:36
superm1eg: $ users11:37
superm1supermario supermario supermario supermario11:37
therethinker2hmm11:38
superm1i think what you need to do, is determine the SUDO_UID11:38
therethinker2k11:39
superm1and then from that calculate the username as listed in /etc/passwd11:39
superm1something very similar needs to be done in changer.py11:39
superm1a few times11:39
therethinker2okay11:39
therethinker2Can you help me out?11:40
therethinker2type sudo su11:40
therethinker2echo $SUDO_UID11:40
therethinker2then does it match the first, or second number in /etc/password11:41
therethinker2for your entry11:41
therethinker2wait, its a range, right?11:41
superm1well so11:41
superm1# echo $SUDO_UID11:41
superm1100011:41
superm1is what i get when i try it11:41
therethinker2yeah11:41
therethinker2I think in /etc/password, it lists a range11:41
superm1No.11:41
superm1it lists the uid11:41
superm1and then gid11:41
superm1so its the third field in /etc/password11:42
superm1/etc/passwd11:42
therethinker2oh11:42
therethinker2wow, thanks11:42
superm1the code to find the entry for that should already do that exact thing in changer.py11:42
superm1break it into fields and all11:42
therethinker2oh, okay11:42
superm1so a literal copy and paste should probably suffice11:42
therethinker2yeah11:42
superm1now the important thing you need to do though, if SUDO_UID isn't a number11:43
superm1eg its launched as root11:43
superm1not from su/sudo11:43
superm1then make sure to skip the section11:43
therethinker2to skip what?11:43
superm1skip finding the uid11:43
therethinker2Oh11:43

foxbuntuok12:12
therethinker2Why don't you make a MySQL tab?12:12
superm1we're running out of space for tabs!12:12
therethinker2Or move the optimize stuff into the DB Connect tab?12:12
foxbuntumeh12:13
foxbuntumy stuff will fit with MySQL here12:13
foxbuntuI will move some stuff around12:13
DaveMorrisbtw what does the mcc look like in sd tv resoultion?12:13
superm1as of right now it takes up 800x55012:14
superm1so what resolution do you drive your tv at?12:14
DaveMorris Modes           "800x600" "640x480"12:15
therethinker2we could maybe squeeze an extra 50 px > way. But thats it12:15
superm1yeah the whole app is very very tight right now12:15
DaveMorriscan you put scroll bars in so that if it's too big we can scroll around it12:15
superm1um.12:16
therethinker2I can once I fix this terminal thing12:16
superm1how about instead we just make it act like a full screen app in 800x600?12:16
DaveMorrishttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAL look at the bottom of that12:16
DaveMorrisNTSC is only 48012:17
therethinker2why don't we just resize it12:17
therethinker2The longest tab was the roles12:17
superm1resize the app?12:17
therethinker2which I made shorter with only 1 row of DE's12:17
superm1your asking for trouble there...12:17
superm1because a lot of children have set desired widths12:17
superm1that need to be adjusted then12:17
therethinker2Hmm12:17
DaveMorrisscroll bars will make it useable for lower res users12:17
superm1screw low res users i say.12:18
superm1;^)12:18
therethinker2:P12:18
therethinker2yeah12:18
tazgodxdoes the new beta rls of mythbuntu set up serial IR Blasters?12:27
superm1unfortunately not automatically12:28
superm1it should be easier than on feisty, but its still a time consuming setup12:28
tazgodxjoy...12:28
tazgodx:)12:28
foxbuntusuperm1, how can I get the tables to resize in glade?12:29
foxbuntuthey dont drag12:29
superm1you have to change their expand and fill properties12:29
superm1to control what space they cover12:29
superm1and you can set requested with and height, but genrally stay away from over use of those12:29
superm1and that's for the entire table12:29
superm1not individual cells12:29
therethinker2Hmm12:34
superm1hmm?12:40
superm1still something = no work?12:40
therethinker2Yes12:40
therethinker2When I run the program in the console it works...12:40
therethinker2well, the function12:40
therethinker2but it wont work in MCC12:40
superm1how are you testing in mcc?12:40
therethinker2Yeah12:40
superm1i mean are you running debuild?12:40
superm1and installing the deb to test?12:41
superm1or how12:41
therethinker2Yeb12:41
superm1well you can debug better like this after installing12:42
superm1sudo /usr/share/mythbuntu-control-centre/bin/mythbuntu-control-centre12:42
superm1you'll get traceback spit to the terminal when things cras12:42
superm1crash even12:42
therethinker2I do that12:42
superm1o12:42
therethinker2Its not that it crashes12:42
therethinker2it just doesn't work :P12:42
tazgodxis the PVR-500 the best dual tuner for mythtv?12:43
therethinker2Its always root12:45
therethinker2Oh wait12:45
therethinker2I think I'm stupid...12:45
superm1tazgodx, matter of opinion12:47
tazgodxare there any other dual tuners that are good? i don't have HDTV yet, but i do plan on getting one soon also, so can i use HD tuners for regular analog for a few months?12:48
=== MegaQuark_ [n=gary@pool-71-117-201-251.ptldor.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
superm1well the 500 is probably the best way to go for now12:48
Wy|laptopI think the HDHomeRun is the best myth tuner at this point12:48
superm1when you get hd12:48
superm1add a hdhomerun12:49
tazgodxyeah, i was thinking of the HDHomeRun. does that have a built in HD antena? or will i need an antenna to get the OVA HD channels?12:49
superm1you'd need an antenna12:50
tazgodxor OTA12:50
tazgodxty, i guess ill get the PVR-500 for now12:50
superm1or you'd need cable supplied QAM channels12:50
superm1have fun with it :)12:50
tazgodx:) im sure i will, the one tuner i have now just sucks when i want to record somthign and watch another12:51
Wy|laptopWell, an antenna is like 30 bucks for some nice amplified rabbit ears12:51
=== Wy|laptop is just mad at his pchdtv5500 right now
tazgodxhaha, i was thinking of getting that pchd5500 also for after i got my HDTV12:51
tazgodxguess that would be a bad move...12:52
superm1i'm quite happy with my hdhomerun12:52
superm1come monday nights, i drive 3 hd tuners and an sd tuner all at once12:52
superm1hd home run is 2 of those12:52
Wy|laptopyeah, the card detects fine but no signal detected12:52
tazgodxcan you get 2 different HD channels at once with one antenna plugged into that with a splitter?12:52
Wy|laptopand no response to my email to support12:52
superm1tazgodx, yeah12:53
Wy|laptoptaz: yeah12:53
Wy|laptopsuperm1: I just bought one as well, should arrive in a few days12:53
tazgodxi can't wait till i get my HDTV, i want hi def programming12:54
=== Wy|laptop grins. I need a new projector
tazgodxso, in 2 years when the US goes to all HD programming, will these sd tuners be unusable?12:55
Wy|laptopCATV will be SD analog until 201112:56
Wy|laptopat least12:56
tazgodxi thought they set a deadline for 200912:56
Wy|laptopthat's OTA12:57
tazgodxoh12:57
=== Tari_ [i=Tari@CPE-72-133-204-1.wi.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
tazgodxin any case, will my SD tuners be garbage in a few years?12:57
superm1who knows12:58
Wy|laptopaoops, 2012 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_television#Digital_switchover12:58
superm1its not that everything is going to all HD, its just all digital broadcasts12:58
Wy|laptopAnd often, if you have a cable modem, you'll pick up analog cable for .. ahem.. :P free.12:58
superm1which i wonder how the cable infrastructure is going to fare with that12:58
superm1given the already limited bandwidth12:58
foxbuntusuperm1, do you want me to upload my update to the main branch?12:59
Wy|laptopWell, a digital signal uses less bandwidth than an analog signal12:59
superm1foxbuntu, does it break things?12:59
superm1or does it work?12:59
foxbuntulet me build it quick12:59
tazgodxis the PVR-500 MCE the normal 500? will it work i guess is my question01:00
Wy|laptopyes01:01
tazgodxty01:01
foxbuntuso far all I have done id update the advanced tab01:01
foxbuntuno code for the scripts or anything yet01:01
tazgodxguess ill buy that now while i set up my myth box01:01
superm1foxbuntu, i thought you had a big patch01:02
superm1from yesterday that you were testing?01:02
foxbuntusuperm1, that was before I merged it all into the Adv tab01:02
superm1shouldn't have changed too much though?01:03
superm1okay whatever01:03
superm1if that's all you changed, as long as everything works01:03
superm1push it01:03
foxbuntuI will build it quick however01:03
foxbuntuarg01:06
foxbuntuits broken01:06
foxbuntuI started over with rev 9801:06
foxbuntuand just modified tab_advanced01:07
Wy|laptopgetting everything to output to alsa is such a pain in the wazoo01:08
Wy|laptoper, -alsa, + toslink01:08
Wy|laptopof course, now that I have that running fine, video playback for recordings results in screen barf01:10
therethinker2Can someone help out with my code01:13

therethinker2I'm completely stumped01:13
