[00:22] <mpontillo> KjetilK: try: 'mqsql -u root mythconverg -p' (then the  mysql password you set) ... then at the mysql prompt: select * from settings where value='VideoStartupDir';
[00:25] <mpontillo> as an alternative, you could look in /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log for clues
[01:57] <Mersault> Have the weekly svn packages been built in the last few weeks?
[01:57] <Mersault> I haven't seen an update come through since I installed, which was about three weeks ago
[02:09] <joe2371> I have a wintv pvr card that doesn't currently have overlay support.  Can someone tell me the name of any software that will let me capture the hardware encoded mpeg stream to disk?  I'm having trouble anwering what seems like a simple question for myself.
[02:10] <joe2371> I'm just trying to prove the concept before I go any further.
[02:12] <szakulec> not sure exactly what you need, but any software that supports V4L (Video for Linux) should work
[02:12] <szakulec> the simplest way is open a terminal, cat /dev/video0 > temp.mpg
[02:13] <superm1> Mersault, last update was last week
[02:13] <superm1> and just completed one today too
[02:14] <Mersault> deb http://weeklybuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu-trunk/ubuntu gutsy multiverse universe restricted main
[02:14] <Mersault> that correct?
[02:14] <superm1> looks right
[02:14] <szakulec> what packages get re-built each week?
[02:14] <superm1> trunk and -fixes
[02:14] <superm1> both do
[02:14] <superm1> there is no new -fixes though this week since there weren't any changes
[02:15] <joe2371> szakulec: I tried that, but it seems to produce an invalid ps due to not having headers in the right places.  Also, the card supports various forms of mpeg compression, so ideally, I would have an interface to configure that.
[02:15] <superm1> Mersault, give me a sec, let me poke the mirror
[02:15] <superm1> Mersault, go ahead and give apt-get update/upgrade another shot
[02:15] <Mersault> that's better
[02:15] <Mersault> :)
[02:45] <Mersault> It seems mythmusic is broken in the latest svn
[02:45] <Mersault> well, the packages are broken
[02:46] <Mersault> complains that they are compiled against the wrong libmyth
[02:46] <superm1> ugh this is why you shouldn't make me poke mirrors so quick
[02:46] <superm1> would have sorted itself out in the morning :)
[02:47] <Mersault> heh
[02:47] <superm1> check in the morning again and that part should be sorted out
[02:47] <Mersault> cool
[02:47] <Mersault> sadly, mythmusic is what I've been waiting for improvement in.
[02:48] <Mersault> it bombs when scanning my music collection
[02:48] <superm1> ah i see
[02:52] <rhpot1991> superm1 I did some tests with the weekly builds
[02:53] <rhpot1991> if you add them to an existing gutsy system (updated from feisty or brand new) it will complain about ubuntu-mythtv-frontend needing to be updated constantly, if you add the weekly builds to a mythbuntu system it does not do that
[03:01] <superm1> known bug
[03:02] <superm1> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+bug/165230 rhpot1991
[03:04] <rhpot1991> ya I know you told me that before, just wanted to tell you how I tested it out
[03:04] <rhpot1991> should I mention that in the comments or isn't it necessary?
[03:04] <superm1> well at this point the ppa management people have confirmed it
[03:04] <superm1> so i dont know its that necessary
[03:05] <rhpot1991> alright
[03:05] <rhpot1991> whats the best way to keep an eye out so I know when its fixed?
[03:06] <superm1> subscribe to that bug
[03:06] <rhpot1991> I still need to get around to fixing up mythflix on my system, been busy...
[03:13] <rhpot1991> superm1: http://consumerist.com/consumer/update/activision-acknowledges-guitar-hero-iii-wii-sound-issue-will-offer-replacement-discs-331396.php
[03:14] <superm1> awesome!!!
[03:14] <superm1> thank goodness
[03:15] <superm1> now we just need more guitars too
[03:15] <superm1> and we are set
[03:22] <rhpot1991> also some smash bros
[03:22] <superm1> well i've got enough cut out for me in trying to get better at gh3
[03:22] <rhpot1991> you need to get mario galaxy too
[03:23] <superm1> oh i bought it :)
[03:23] <rhpot1991> nice, have you played yet?
[03:23] <superm1> somehow i stayed up late a few nights during thanksgiving and got 85 stars
[03:23] <rhpot1991> nice
[03:23] <rhpot1991> some of them get hard near the end
[03:23] <superm1> all these freaking purple coin ones though
[03:23] <superm1> they are a pain
[03:24] <rhpot1991> I'm at 106 now, and some of the purple coin ones take lives and lives of dieing
[03:24] <rhpot1991> did you do luigi's purple coins yet?
[03:24] <superm1> so i figured i'd save all those extra ones for some time during x-mas
[03:24] <superm1> luigi's purple coins?
[03:24] <superm1> no dont think so
[03:24] <rhpot1991> its a course
[03:24] <rhpot1991> you will know it when you see it, freaking hard
[03:25] <superm1> is it what you get after you find all the green ones?
[03:25] <superm1> i need to find like one more of those
[03:25] <rhpot1991> nope, the green ones give you 3 of the course type things
[03:25] <rhpot1991> sting ray, and the rolling ball are 2 of them
[03:25] <rhpot1991> I didn't do the other
[03:26] <rhpot1991> did you do the one where you run around on the 2d mario and get the 5 silver stars?
[03:26] <superm1> nope, but it sounds like i have a fair share of fun levels left to go then
[03:26] <rhpot1991> ya you do
[03:30] <hansoffate> Hi, what's the easiest way to be able to record from my STB?  I have a pvr150.  Like a year ago Superm1 basically setup my ir blaster and channel changing script for my STB.  I just switched from satellite to cable.  If i get a STB with firewire would it be easier to configure that to change channels?
[03:31] <superm1> easier is an interesting word choice there
[03:31] <superm1> it all depends on how friendly to recording your cable co is via firewire
[03:32] <hansoffate> southwest comcast.  I guess i could go in tomorrow and ask them.
[03:32] <superm1> most of them won't have any idea what you are talking about usually
[03:32] <superm1> but you'll see
[03:35] <hansoffate> but either way to record from everything I order from the digital package, I have to either use a Firewire or IR Blaster to record all the channels.  If I connect cable directly into the PVR 150, i'll only get the local channels and up till 100 right?
[03:36] <superm1> yeah approx
[03:36] <superm1> bbiab.
[03:40] <rhpot1991> hansoffate: its my understanding that the hdhomerun can get unencrypted digital and HD channels from comcast, though its hit or miss based on your area as far as what you get
[03:41] <hansoffate> i see
[03:43] <hansoffate> well, im giving my grandparents my old mythtv system for christmas, but I need to figure out how to set it up for his STB.   It has a pvr150 in it.  Then I want to build a New system for me with a pvr500 and the ability to record HD if eventually I want to buy a HD Homerun
[03:44] <hansoffate> In both cases, i don't know how to configure mythtv to work with a STB
[05:17] <mpontillo> hm - seeing an odd issue trying to watch live tv. restarted the mythbackend and still the same: RingBuf(/var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1540_20071209211324.mpg): Invalid file (fd -1) when opening '/var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1540_20071209211324.mpg'.
[05:17] <mpontillo> filesystem has plenty of space..
[05:22] <mpontillo> oh; no wonder ... DMA TIMEOUT 00000001 0 is once again spamming dmesg .. wonder how to fix that
[05:23] <mpontillo> that DMA thing... can be kind of important =)
[05:44] <rhpot1991> I was getting a similiar error (though I'm not sure it was the same thing), and I solved it by telling the system to leave more room empty on the hard drives
[05:44] <rhpot1991> might be worth a try
[05:47] <mpontillo> well, I've got *plenty* of room, so I don't think that's the issue, but thanks for the idea: /dev/sda1            116690416  34153512  76609324  31% /
[05:47] <mpontillo> however, I just now narrowed it down to a hardware/driver issue. I did a warm boot (/sbin/shutdown -r now) and it didn't fix the problem. cut power for 30 seconds, turn back on, and everything's fine...
[05:49] <mpontillo> was wondering if maybe there was a buffer leak in the ivtv driver. or could be the relatively old, non-standard hardware I'm running this on
[05:50] <mpontillo> of course, if it was a simple buffer leak, it seems likely that the warm boot would have fixed it... no... this is something more fundamental
[06:18] <javatexan> howdy all..anyone still up?  LOL
[06:20] <mpontillo> hi; trying to figure out how to recompile ivtv ...
[06:21] <WcktKlwn> when is the Hauppauge HVR-1600 going to be supported?
[06:22] <javatexan> I was looking to buy a Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-500 MCE-Kit, will this work, it says it needs Windows Media Center
[06:23] <javatexan> all I can find of the PVR 500 is the MCE kit
[06:24] <mpontillo> javatexan, I think the MCE kit just means it comes w/ the media center remote and USB interface. (I'm using a PVR-150 MCE kit...)
[06:25] <javatexan> oh....okay...just making sure I wasnt getting the only one that wont work...;)
[06:25] <javatexan> is there any way to get it to work with digital cable?
[06:26] <javatexan> I saw some doc that talked about hooking up some ir stuff, is that really the best way to do it?
[06:26] <mpontillo> yeah, where there's a will, there's a way. =)
[06:26] <mpontillo> I'm using that IR setup w/ DirecTV and it works fine.
[06:27] <javatexan> with multiple tuners or can you only record one show at a time?
[06:27] <mpontillo> On occasion when it goes to change channels it loses a number and doesn't tune. so sometimes minor adjustments might be needed.
[06:27] <mpontillo> I'm using it with a single tuner.
[06:27] <WcktKlwn> I should just go out and get a comcast stb with firewire
[06:28] <javatexan> I guess with a single tuner, I could just record from the cable box?
[06:29] <mpontillo> I'm not sure how it would work with dual tuners. I suppose if you had two cable boxes ... the IR blaster has two output ports so in theory you could connect two blasters.. sounds like a hack
[06:29] <mpontillo> yes....
[06:29] <WcktKlwn> if your in the states you should just request a stb with firewire output
[06:30] <mpontillo> firewire sounds like it would certainly simplify things.
[06:31] <WcktKlwn> there is a fcc mandate now in the states that require cable companies to have at least one box with their service
[06:31] <javatexan> do you like your 150 or is it worth going with a 250 or 350?
[06:31] <javatexan> or 500
[06:33] <mpontillo> Well, I went with the simplest setup I could get. And when it works, it works well... so I can't complain. But I'm trying to run it on some older, fragile hardware, and having some problems. I couldn't tell you if some other PVR-* card would be having these same problems. But, I know someone who bought the 250 and is happy with it... YMMV
[06:36] <javatexan> thanks
[06:37] <mpontillo> np - good luck
[06:38] <javatexan> i just noticed that my STB has a IR jack in the back...is there a way to take advantage of that?
[06:40] <mpontillo> good question. I noticed that after-the-fact and wondered the same thing myself. seems like it might work but I'm not sure how
[06:40] <mpontillo> was tempted to try to just plug it into the blaster and see if it worked =)
[06:40] <javatexan> LOL
[06:41] <javatexan> i am not sure what type of plug that is but is seems like you could have a serial to that plug setup or something...then let MythTV control things
[06:42] <javatexan> usb to that plug...
[06:42] <javatexan> or headphone to that plug....LOL ;)
[06:43] <javatexan> looks like a mono plug for audio....LOL
[06:43] <mpontillo> yeah - that's what I was wondering; the IR baster has a "headphone"-type plug. exactly. mono audio plug. so I was thinking it might actually work
[06:43] <mpontillo> didn't have one to try it though
[12:02] <demosthenes_> what is the most successful card combined with an Nvidia card to make a MythTV box?
[12:02] <demosthenes_> I tried AverMedia Hybrid TV/FM but had no luck
[12:03] <demosthenes_> looking for digital / HDTV with FM radio support (if possible but not required)
[13:13] <Nightcrlr> anyone around?
[13:31] <Daviey> hey bendailey
[13:31] <Daviey> You only come online when there's a problem.. whats broken now?! :)
[13:47] <Nightcrlr>  can anyone help me out or know of this error "Error was encountered while displaying video." ?
[14:01] <bendailey> Daviey: hopefully nothing
[14:02] <Daviey> \o/
[15:57] <sebrock> superm1: hi there
[18:58] <MythbuntuGuest26> Can anyone help with Mythbuntu and wireless ?
[18:59] <Dr_willis> You may want to be checking the Ubuntu forums/guides also. I dont use wireless.. so cant help
[19:00] <rhpot1991> I did wireless with my ubuntu, but its hit or miss based on your card
[19:01] <Dr_willis> Thats so true rhpot1991  :(
[19:01] <rhpot1991> its normally easier to just buy a cheap card you know will work
[19:01] <MythbuntuGuest26> Mine has been working fine for ages, problem is the damn keyring is driving me nuts !
[19:01] <rhpot1991> depends on your situation though
[19:02] <rhpot1991> what is it doing?
[19:02] <MythbuntuGuest26> I want not to have a keyboard attached, on startup it always asks for a password.
[19:03] <rhpot1991> strange, I think I added mine into a file itself
[19:03] <rhpot1991> let me check on that
[19:03] <rhpot1991> /etc/network/interfaces
[19:04] <rhpot1991> wireless-essid moonbase one
[19:04] <rhpot1991> wireless-key blahblahblah......
[19:04] <rhpot1991> and then it automagically connects
[19:04] <MythbuntuGuest26> Ok, now I tried that, sadly it would not connect, now it could be me, as I was not sure exactly what i was doing.
[19:05] <rhpot1991> what kind of key?
[19:05] <MythbuntuGuest26> Using WPA security.
[19:05] <rhpot1991> see thats a wep key
[19:06] <MythbuntuGuest26> Yes, I am ok on networking, been and eng for more years than I care to mention, but not with Linux
[19:07] <rhpot1991> might need to use a different option or syntax for wpa, I'm poking around
[19:07] <hansoffate> i finally got mythbuntu installed on my Computer.  I just had to wait longer and eventually the Live CD booted into mythbuntu
[19:07] <MythbuntuGuest26> Thanks, its appreciated. WAF is running quite low...
[19:08] <hansoffate> i got it somewhat configured, I want to hook it up to my TV with svideo now.  Is there anyway to turn on svideo output before I connect it?  I am going to have this box to the living room and plug it in, so I wont' have a monitor near by to configure it to output to svideo.
[19:10] <rhpot1991> MythbuntuGuest26: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[19:11] <rhpot1991> there are a bunch of different methods in there, some that do /etc/network/interfaces like me, and others that just work around the keyring problem you are having
[19:12] <MythbuntuGuest26> Ok great, thanks i will go have a read.
[19:13] <MythbuntuGuest26> *** Can anyone help with Gutsy yet?? This fix was brilliant under Dapper & Fiesty, but breaks under Gutsy. It is an excellent addition to your wifi and you miss it badly when upgrading!!!
[19:13] <MythbuntuGuest26> Seemed like a good idea
[19:14] <rhpot1991> you can try searching ubuntuforums.org too
[19:15] <MythbuntuGuest26> Yes I have, posted an entry, perhaps wait, someone somewhere it must also be bugging. Thanks fro your help anyway.
[19:16] <rhpot1991> hansoffate: depends on your card, also I'm not all that familiar with the out of the box mythbuntu setup, so I would say to just go and try it now and see what happens
[19:16] <rhpot1991> you can always modify via ssh or vnc or something
[19:17] <hansoffate> ah!
[19:17] <hansoffate> good idea
[19:17] <hansoffate> i have it setup for ssh and vnc
[19:18] <hansoffate> i didn't even think of that
[19:18] <hansoffate> thanks rhpot1991
[19:18] <rhpot1991> sure thing
[19:18] <hansoffate> starting up the box right now to make sure i can get in, brb
[19:19] <hansoffate> what is a good vnc program for windows? anyone know? I am using tightvnc
[19:19] <rhpot1991> tighvnc is good as far as I know
[19:20] <rhpot1991> I use nx on my box
[19:20] <hansoffate> yea, i assumed most people do.  I just play video games, so i need my windows install
[19:20] <hansoffate> sweet, vnc works
[19:20] <hansoffate> im going to go hook this up
[19:21] <rhpot1991> http://www.nomachine.com/
[19:21] <rhpot1991> I find it runs better than vnc, I can actually fire up a frontend and do things over the interweb from work
[19:23] <hansoffate> interesting, sounds very good
[19:23] <hansoffate> do i need to install the server on my mythbuntu setup?
[19:24] <hansoffate> is it in the repository?
[19:26] <hansoffate> nm, there is a .deb package
[19:26] <hansoffate> thanks rhpot1991, gonna go play around with this
[19:26] <rhpot1991> ya I just installed the debs
[19:26] <rhpot1991> there is a freenx, but thats based on old versions and I couldn't get it to work properly
[19:39] <sebrock_> superm1, are you there?
[19:39] <superm1> momentarily
[19:40] <superm1> rhpot1991, do you know why that isn't in ubuntu yet by chance?
[19:40] <superm1> i wondered some time back, but never investigated it
[19:40] <sebrock_> superm1, well If you could guide me through the lirc thing?
[19:40] <superm1> didnt i do that the other day?
[19:40] <sebrock_> No; I had to leave
[19:41] <sebrock_> and you told me there was other things to do aswell
[19:41] <sebrock_> anyway, I would be glad
[19:41] <superm1> do you remember where we left off?
[19:42] <sebrock_> no, better take it from the beginning, I didnt do anything last time
[19:42] <rhpot1991> superm1 freenx or nx?
[19:42] <superm1> rhpot1991, freenx
[19:42] <rhpot1991> not really sure, I know there is a repo you can add that has it in it
[19:42] <superm1> well NX itself it probably not licensed for redistribution
[19:42] <rhpot1991> though it doesn't really work
[19:42] <rhpot1991> ya, nx is a license issue
[19:42] <superm1> but i mean most ideally it should be directly on ubuntu repositories
[19:42] <rhpot1991> it == freenx
[19:43] <superm1> its shame
[19:43] <rhpot1991> I couldn't get it to work, and I saw a lot of hit or miss comments in the forums
[19:43] <rhpot1991> honestly, nx is a breeze to install, and just works
[19:43] <superm1> sebrock_, um okay so, you need the lirc-modules-source from hardy
[19:43] <superm1> and you need module-assistant installed
[19:43] <rhpot1991> its a lot easier to point people at that than have them hacking stuff in freenx and it not randomly working for an unknown reason
[19:45] <sebrock_> superm1, so I take then down with apt-get?
[19:45] <superm1> sebrock_, well you can probably go to packages.ubuntu.com and get the deb from there
[19:45] <superm1> i dont think you will need to use the newer lircd
[19:45] <superm1> just the newer module
[19:45] <sebrock_> I added Hardy to repositories
[19:45] <superm1> so lirc-modules-source should be the only deb you need
[19:45] <superm1> sebrock_, ooh that's very dangerous
[19:46] <superm1> you better be careful
[19:46] <sebrock_> No I saved the old one aswell
[19:46] <superm1> because you will start upgrading packages that you dont want to upgrade yet
[19:46] <sebrock_> hehe no Im not stupid :D
[19:46] <superm1> okay :)
[19:46] <sebrock_> no automatic downloading here anyway
[19:46] <superm1> well some way or another
[19:46] <superm1> get the lirc-modules-source deb
[19:46] <sebrock_> so I get from there
[19:46] <superm1> from hardy
[19:46] <sebrock_> yep
[19:46] <superm1> once you do, install that
[19:46] <superm1> install module assistant
[19:46] <superm1> and then dpkg-reconfigure lirc-modules-source
[19:46] <superm1> and choose your module
[19:46] <superm1> then
[19:47] <superm1> sudo m-a update,prepate
[19:47] <superm1> sudo m-a a-i lirc
[19:47] <sebrock_> w8, apt-get source ?
[19:47] <superm1> you want the deb
[19:47] <superm1> of lirc-modules-source
[19:47] <sebrock_> -d then+
[19:48] <superm1> well install the deb
[19:48] <sebrock_> apt-get install lirc-modules-source?
[19:49] <sebrock_> (sorry for my lameness)
[19:49] <superm1> that should work
[19:50] <sebrock_> and module assistant?
[19:50] <superm1> same thing
[19:50] <superm1> use your favorite method to install it
[19:51] <sebrock_> ok so I'll just install the sources then?
[19:51] <rhpot1991> superm1: you don't have any amd64 machines with ati cards do you?
[19:51] <superm1> No i don't
[19:51] <rhpot1991> I'm infinitely annoyed with how hard it is to set that thing up with the current ubuntu, I had an easier time running debian sid back when there was no official amd64 release
[19:52] <sebrock_> superm1, Ok I installed it
[19:52] <sebrock_> where do they get installed to?
[19:53] <superm1> that is irrelevant
[19:53] <sebrock_> just trying to learn
[19:53] <superm1> just follow the other stuff
[19:53] <sebrock_> alright Im choosing my remote now
[19:53] <superm1> you can always query where things are installed via "dpkg -L packagename"
[19:54] <sebrock_> i2c and gpio are set to be built beforehand
[19:54] <sebrock_> should I remove these or are they needed?
[19:54] <rhpot1991> locate file.name works sometimes too
[19:54] <sebrock_> I use imon
[19:54] <superm1> all you want is your module
[19:54] <superm1> remove anything extra
[19:55] <sebrock_> automaticly build modules?
[19:55] <superm1> no
[19:55] <hansoffate> I am trying to get my Windows network share, mounted on the new linux box.  I followed http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=288534   I added the commands to fstab.  I just tried to sudo mount -a, but i got an error "mount error 13 = permission denied   refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page"
[19:55] <hansoffate> anyone got an idea?
[19:55] <superm1> you are building them yourself w/ module-assistant
[19:56] <sebrock_> ok now I can choose to do stuff on the lirc-modules-source.conf
[19:56] <rhpot1991> hansoffate: does the folder you are trying to mount to exist?
[19:56] <sebrock_> superm1, what should I choose+
[19:57] <superm1> yeah you want to replace it
[19:57] <hansoffate> yea i just made it.  /home/windows
[19:57] <hansoffate> do you think i have the wrong permissions?
[19:57] <sebrock_> install the package maintainer verson=
[19:57] <superm1> yes
[19:57] <hansoffate> chmod 777?
[19:57] <sebrock_> ok done
[19:58] <sebrock_> back to shell
[19:59] <sebrock_> superm1 ^^;)
[20:00] <superm1> sebrock_, continue with what i said above
[20:00] <rhpot1991> hansoffate: what does your fstab line look like?
[20:00] <sebrock_> sudo m-a a-i thing?
[20:01] <hansoffate> //192.168.1.101/Share    /home/windows   cifs   guest,rw,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[20:01] <superm1> sebrock_, there are two steps above for module-assistant
[20:01] <superm1> do both
[20:01] <hansoffate> i think i remember having this problem before, i had to chagne the permissions on the folder i made on the ubuntu box
[20:02] <superm1> hansoffate, you connecting to a vista share?
[20:02] <hansoffate> xp
[20:02] <superm1> okay nvm then
[20:02] <hansoffate> i made sure permissions is set to everyone
[20:02] <sebrock_> superm1, I'm sorry I didnt follow. Just scared to mess things up
[20:02] <hansoffate> with read/write
[20:02] <superm1> sebrock_, sudo m-a update,prepare
[20:02] <sebrock_> superm1, so is it 'sudo m-a a-i update,prepare
[20:02] <superm1> sudo m-a a-i lirc
[20:02] <hansoffate> i forgot how to check on ubuntu (haven't used ubuntu terminal in a while
[20:02] <sebrock_> ok
[20:03] <sebrock_> superm1, says m-a not found
[20:03] <superm1> sebrock_, then you don't have module-assistant installed
[20:03] <sebrock_> I thought you said it was included in some way
[20:03] <superm1> sebrock_, no i said to install both :)
[20:04] <rhpot1991> hansoffate: did you try to do that by hand and make sure the computer can connect?
[20:04] <sebrock_> superm1, did that, but it says: update, what is update?
[20:04] <rhpot1991> you can try to chmod the folder and make sure that isn't the issue, though I don't think it is necessary
[20:04] <superm1> you typed it wrong then
[20:04] <superm1> sebrock_, sudo m-a update,prepare
[20:05] <sebrock_> superm1, what is this doing?
[20:05] <hansoffate> yea, i just chmoded the folder with 777
[20:05] <sebrock_> headers are getting fetched?
[20:05] <hansoffate> i get the same error
[20:05] <hansoffate> rhpot1991:
[20:05] <superm1> sebrock_, preparing to build the module using module-assistant
[20:05] <rhpot1991> I'm not sure about the cifs, I see things saying to use smbfs
[20:05] <rhpot1991> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131
[20:05] <rhpot1991> I do nfs shares, so I am not really sure
[20:06] <sebrock_> so thats OK then?
[20:06] <rhpot1991> normally just connect by hand when I need to hit the windows box
[20:06] <hansoffate> rhpot1991:  ahh, i see, i have all my musik and videos on my windows box though, so i want it to automatically get mounted
[20:07] <superm1> sebrock_, did it complain about something?
[20:07] <rhpot1991> smb is about your only choice
[20:07] <sebrock_> superm1, right now its downloading headers and gcc and stuff
[20:07] <superm1> okay so why are you worried? :)
[20:08] <sebrock_> to much text
[20:08] <sebrock_> :D
[20:08] <hansoffate> rhpot1991: i just changed cifs to smbfs and now i get this
[20:08] <hansoffate> anonymous login successful
[20:08] <hansoffate> 5552: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (access denied.)
[20:08] <hansoffate> Smb connection failed
[20:09] <rhpot1991> I see someone here saying to do username=<DOMAIN NAME>/<USERNAME>
[20:09] <rhpot1991> and it should work
[20:09] <hansoffate> so..
[20:09] <hansoffate> //experience/hans
[20:09] <hansoffate> wait...
[20:10] <rhpot1991> seems like you have a permission problem on your share
[20:10] <hansoffate> but then how does it know to mount which folder
[20:10] <sebrock_> ok superm1, just says Done! now
[20:10] <sebrock_> superm1, back to shell again
[20:11] <rhpot1991> I should have made less of this chai latte, 32oz was way too much
[20:15] <sebrock_> superm1, ?
[20:15] <superm1> sebrock_, carry on
[20:16] <sebrock_> oh
[20:16] <rhpot1991> anyone have any bright ideas for how to indicate to a viewer that commercial flagging found less than the normal breaks so they don't use the skip and end up missing some of the program?
[20:16] <sebrock_> ok its done
[20:16] <sebrock_> superm1, set up and back to shell
[20:16] <sebrock_> so now its in?
[20:17] <superm1> sebrock_, almost
[20:17] <sebrock_> alright
[20:17] <superm1> now you need to switch into /lib/modules/`uname -a`
[20:17] <sebrock_> ok
[20:17] <superm1> and search for this module name
[20:17] <superm1> because there will be two of it
[20:17] <superm1> and you only want the new one you built
[20:18] <hansoffate> rhpot1991: I got it working by following that tutorial.  Thanks for the help
[20:19] <sebrock_> superm1, ok, i found a lirc_imon.ko in /ubuntu/media/lirc
[20:19] <rhpot1991> no problem
[20:19] <sebrock_> but it was touched 2007-10-13
[20:20] <sebrock_> superm1, and there is also under /misc lirc_dev.
[20:21] <superm1> right
[20:21] <superm1> you want to rename the one in ubuntu/media/lirc
[20:21] <superm1> to something that doesn't end in .ko
[20:21] <sebrock_> ok
[20:21] <superm1> say .ko.old
[20:21] <sebrock_> and the new ones in misc?
[20:21] <superm1> leave it
[20:21] <superm1> once you renamed the old one
[20:21] <superm1> sudo depmod -a
[20:22] <superm1> to refresh the dependency list
[20:22] <sebrock_> ok
[20:22] <sebrock_> done
[20:22] <superm1> okay that should be it
[20:22] <superm1> now you need to be careful if you update your kernel
[20:22] <superm1> because you'll have to redo these changes since you can't use the one in the ubuntu kernel
[20:22] <sebrock_> so irw should sense my new things?
[20:23] <sebrock_> or do I have to reload modules?
[20:23] <superm1> well you need to unload
[20:23] <superm1> and then load the module again
[20:23] <superm1> and that should be it
[20:23] <sebrock_> ok
[20:23] <sebrock_> why cant I just move the ones in misc to the old dir?
[20:23] <superm1> oh thats right
[20:23] <superm1> you'll need to rename the lirc_dev one too
[20:24] <superm1> you could just move them if you wanted too, but you still would need to run depmod anyway
[20:25] <sebrock_> oh ok
[20:26] <sebrock_> I wish I would know this stuff like water some day
[20:26] <sebrock_> what did m-a a-i do?
[20:27] <superm1> built the module
[20:28] <superm1> and installed it
[20:28] <superm1> that's the "old" way of doing things
[20:28] <superm1> before i added them to the kernel package
[20:28] <sebrock_> Ok so I removed the modules and reloaded them
[20:28] <sebrock_> but irw still wont pick up the pad
[20:28] <sebrock_> :(
[20:29] <superm1> well does that patch fix other things too?
[20:29] <superm1> other than the module itself?
[20:29] <superm1> did it affect lircd, irw etc?
[20:29] <sebrock_> I guess
[20:29] <superm1> well check
[20:29] <superm1> because if it does you have more to do
[20:30] <sebrock_> aw man, here is what you wrote: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/153184
[20:30] <rushfan_> Is there a way to skip through mythtvs program guide? So I can forward like a week w/o just scrolling?
[20:31] <rhpot1991> rushfan_: did you try page up and page down?
[20:31] <sebrock_> superm1, what do you reckon? Am I screwed?
[20:31] <rushfan_> that switches cahnnels
[20:31] <rushfan_> Im trying to switch ahead in time :|
[20:31] <superm1> sebrock_, um that patch only patches the driver itself
[20:31] <superm1> it shouldn't matter
[20:31] <rushfan_> Ahh, the end and home keys do the trick
[20:32] <sebrock_> superm1, what do you mean? what else do I need to do?
[20:32] <superm1> nothing else at this point
[20:32] <superm1> i mean that patch is applied
[20:32] <superm1> are you *sure* you had the lirc-modules-source from hardy?
[20:34] <sebrock_> can I check this simple?
[20:35] <sebrock_> but Im fairly sure, there is only hardy rep in my sources
[20:39] <sebrock_> superm1, ?
[20:43] <sebrock_> eh
[20:47] <sebrock_> how can I check this?
[20:48] <sebrock_> superm1, this is what I get: lirc-modules-source is already the newest version.
[20:55] <superm1> dpkg -l | grep lirc-modules
[20:55] <superm1> if you get 0.8.2-0ubuntu8 you are using the old one
[20:56] <sebrock_> ii  lirc-modules-2.6.22-14-generic             0.8.3~pre1-0ubuntu1+2.6.22-14.46     Linux Infra-red Remote Control support (bina
[20:56] <sebrock_> ii  lirc-modules-source                        0.8.3~pre1-0ubuntu1                  Linux Infra-red Remote Contro
[20:57] <sebrock_> superm1, I'm not I guess. But I installed the 0.8.3-pre1 package before
[20:57] <superm1> yeah you've got the latest one
[20:57] <sebrock_> dunno if that makes any difference
[20:57] <superm1> you're fine
[20:57] <superm1> looks like the patch isn't working for you
[20:57] <sebrock_> hmm...
[20:57] <sebrock_> I dont need to change any confs?
[20:58] <sebrock_> for lirc to recognize the now codes?
[20:58] <superm1> well i dont know
[20:58] <superm1> are there additional conf options needed for it
[20:58] <superm1> int he lircd.conf?
[20:58] <superm1> if so then you still need to do that
[20:58] <sebrock_> lircd.conf states all hex codes
[20:58] <sebrock_> but mine has "north" "south" etc...
[20:59] <sebrock_> also restarted lircd
[20:59] <superm1> well wherever that post was found with the patch
[20:59] <superm1> see if there is a lircd.conf with the other buttons
[20:59] <superm1> and if so try to append the differences to yours
[21:00] <sebrock_> the other buttons work as before
[21:00] <sebrock_> hmmm
[21:04] <sebrock_> I'll have to look into this tomorrow then
[21:04] <rhpot1991> superm1: any idea how I can cause a script or something to shoot off when someone starts to watch a recorded program (either a certain recording or all recordings)
[21:07] <sebrock_> superm1, I copied this and still nothing
[21:07] <sebrock_> http://www.nabble.com/-PATCH--imon-pad2keys.patch-to13263763.html
[21:11] <superm1> no rhpot1991
[21:11] <rhpot1991> darn
[21:11] <superm1> sebrock_, you need to reload lircd
[21:12] <superm1> after you add that lircd.conf
[21:24] <sebrock_> did that
[21:24] <sebrock_> nothing
[21:25] <sebrock_> nope, superm1 still nothing
[21:25] <superm1> sebrock_, i dont know then
[21:25] <sebrock_> now Im using the lircd.conf thats inlcuded in the patch
[21:25] <superm1> that should have been it
[21:25] <sebrock_> awwwwwww
[21:25] <sebrock_> thank you anyway-.. have a look tomorrow :/
[21:25] <sebrock_> bye
[21:25] <superm1> okay
[21:25] <superm1> cya
