| JordyNew | i'm here superm1. you still need a tester? | 00:15 |
|---|---|---|
| superm1 | yes JordyNew | 00:15 |
| superm1 | if you can activate gutsy-proposed and update to the new mythtv on there | 00:15 |
| superm1 | and make sure it still works with your hardware | 00:15 |
| JordyNew | i can test as my mythtv setup is still in early stages. | 00:15 |
| superm1 | recordings and such | 00:15 |
| superm1 | that'd be spectacular | 00:15 |
| superm1 | i need a few people to comment on this bug: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/+source/mythtv/+bug/158562 | 00:16 |
| superm1 | so that it can be released from proposed | 00:16 |
| JordyNew | um, you may have to walk me though it superm1 | 00:16 |
| superm1 | JordyNew, if you click on system | 00:16 |
| superm1 | or applications in mythbuntu | 00:16 |
| JordyNew | i do have a putty session into my myth box. | 00:16 |
| superm1 | ah | 00:16 |
| superm1 | well if you can VNC in, i'll walk you through gui, otherwise you comfy on terminal? | 00:17 |
| JordyNew | yes | 00:17 |
| superm1 | okay edit your /etc/apt/sources.list | 00:17 |
| superm1 | and copy and paste the line that says gutsy-updates | 00:17 |
| superm1 | you want to change the pasted line to gutsy-proposed | 00:17 |
| JordyNew | got it. | 00:18 |
| superm1 | okay once you do that | 00:19 |
| superm1 | apt-get update | 00:19 |
| superm1 | and apt-get upgrade | 00:19 |
| superm1 | you should be offered a variety of updates | 00:19 |
| superm1 | notate the ones that are myth related | 00:19 |
| superm1 | and then hit ctrl c | 00:19 |
| superm1 | and then run apt-get install BLAH | 00:19 |
| superm1 | where BLAH is the myth related ones | 00:20 |
| JordyNew | its downloading the updates | 00:21 |
| JordyNew | didn't give me an option to select certain ones. | 00:21 |
| superm1 | okay well you're updating more than you need to then :) | 00:22 |
| JordyNew | it's ok i can always reinstall, i hadn't gotten too far, was having remote control problems. | 00:23 |
| JordyNew | 80 percent done right now. | 00:24 |
| superm1 | i see | 00:25 |
| JordyNew | now it put me into the setup. | 00:25 |
| superm1 | it might ask a few debconf related questions | 00:26 |
| superm1 | the important part is whether or not you can still record with your tuners | 00:26 |
| superm1 | and watch your recordings | 00:26 |
| JordyNew | ok | 00:27 |
| JordyNew | looks like it's done. | 00:28 |
| JordyNew | do i need to reboot? | 00:28 |
| superm1 | nope | 00:29 |
| superm1 | just restart mythbackend | 00:29 |
| JordyNew | ok | 00:33 |
| JordyNew | it looks like it's still working. | 00:34 |
| JordyNew | can't do more testing now, need to go for a while. | 00:34 |
| Iolaus | Hey all, can anyone help me out with moving to the Trunk builds as explained here: http://www.mythbuntu.org/auto-builds | 00:36 |
| Iolaus | When I go to do the apt-get upgrade it lists a bunch of packages as kept back | 00:36 |
| superm1 | JordyNew, okay when you get a few moments, please notate on the bug | 00:38 |
| superm1 | that it still works for you | 00:38 |
| superm1 | Iolaus, do an apt-get dist-upgrade | 00:38 |
| superm1 | instead | 00:38 |
| Iolaus | thanks superm1 | 00:42 |
| Iolaus | I'll give it a shot | 00:42 |
| Iolaus | superm1: The apt-get dist-upgrade bailed out with: | 00:49 |
| Iolaus | Errors were encountered while processing: | 00:49 |
| Iolaus | /var/cache/apt/archives/libmyth-perl_0.20.99+trunk15096-0ubuntu0~mythbuntu1_i386.deb | 00:49 |
| Iolaus | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 00:49 |
| Iolaus | any idea what the deal is? | 00:49 |
| superm1 | Iolaus, bad download? | 01:01 |
| superm1 | Iolaus, | 01:01 |
| Iolaus | hmm | 01:07 |
| Iolaus | can I just run the command again or are things going to be boinked now? | 01:08 |
| Iolaus | I wonder if I should change to the UK repository as this same thing has happened twice | 01:08 |
| Iolaus | Is anyone here running from the mythbuntu trunk repository? | 01:15 |
| Daviey | yes | 01:15 |
| * Daviey runs the UK repo | 01:16 | |
| Iolaus | hmm.. is it easy for me to switch that? | 01:16 |
| superm1 | they are just mirrors of one another | 01:16 |
| Daviey | yeah, just add a uk. in your /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:16 |
| Iolaus | I'll give that a try. | 01:17 |
| Iolaus | should I be able to run the apt-get dist-upgrade again without trouble even though it crapped out once? | 01:17 |
| Daviey | superm1: When does the normal one resync? | 01:17 |
| superm1 | the night after a build on the ppa | 01:17 |
| superm1 | when i press the sync button | 01:17 |
| Daviey | ah | 01:17 |
| Daviey | uk. happens every sunday morning | 01:18 |
| Iolaus | guys, can I simply re-run the apt-get dist-upgrade? | 01:19 |
| Iolaus | or would there be some problem from the last upgrade not finishing? | 01:19 |
| superm1 | no reason that would be trouble | 01:22 |
| Daviey | Iolaus: apt-get update first | 01:22 |
| Iolaus | Daviey: thanks :) | 01:24 |
| JordyNew | ok superm1 if you're still around, everything seems to still be working | 01:29 |
| superm1 | JordyNew, great | 01:30 |
| superm1 | can you please comment on the bug? | 01:30 |
| superm1 | just mention that you dont have the hardware, but were testing to make sure it didn't break anything on your hardware | 01:30 |
| JordyNew | ok, and will you have a chance to help me with compiling lirc for my remote? I know what I need to edit in the lirc_mceusb2.c file but every time i follow the guides that file gets rebuilt without my changes. | 01:31 |
| JordyNew | i do have m-a installed | 01:33 |
| JordyNew | i'm not a member, waiting on the email to be able to comment on the bug that you wanted me to do superm1 | 01:36 |
| superm1 | JordyNew, okay so as for compiling lirc | 01:38 |
| superm1 | did you install lirc-modules-source? | 01:38 |
| JordyNew | don't know how to do that. | 01:40 |
| JordyNew | i do have my putty session open though | 01:40 |
| JordyNew | i can check if you tell me how to. | 01:40 |
| superm1 | apt-get install lirc-modules-source | 01:40 |
| JordyNew | already newest version. | 01:41 |
| superm1 | okay then you need to extract that archive in /usr/src | 01:42 |
| JordyNew | ok. | 01:42 |
| superm1 | and modify the file inside it | 01:42 |
| superm1 | once you do, it needs to be repackaged | 01:42 |
| JordyNew | i'm sorry for being such a newbie at this. | 01:42 |
| superm1 | if you can do this with a gui, it really is a ton easier | 01:42 |
| JordyNew | ok what do i do at the gui? | 01:42 |
| superm1 | copy the archive from /usr/src | 01:44 |
| superm1 | to somewhere else | 01:44 |
| superm1 | and double click it | 01:44 |
| superm1 | extract it | 01:44 |
| superm1 | and then modify the file and you can drag it back in | 01:44 |
| JordyNew | the lirc-modules-source? | 01:44 |
| superm1 | the file in /usr/src/ related to lirc modules source | 01:45 |
| superm1 | i dont recall the filename for it | 01:45 |
| superm1 | but it should be recognizable | 01:45 |
| JordyNew | i've copied it but when i double click on the tgz file it asks me what i want to use to open it? | 01:48 |
| superm1 | oh file-roller might not be installed | 01:49 |
| superm1 | install that quickly | 01:49 |
| superm1 | and you should be able to double click it | 01:49 |
| JordyNew | apt-get install fileroller ? | 01:50 |
| JordyNew | file-roller? | 01:51 |
| superm1 | apt-get install file-roller | 01:51 |
| superm1 | i think | 01:51 |
| JordyNew | ok, i have the file edited in the directory under /tmp/modules/ ... but i don't know how to repackage it into a tgz with all the directory structure intact | 01:54 |
| superm1 | well thats the thing | 01:58 |
| superm1 | if you leave file-roller open | 01:58 |
| superm1 | you can just drag it back to the right place | 01:58 |
| superm1 | and not need to worry about repacking in the right place | 01:58 |
| JordyNew | ok, i think i'm getting it. | 02:01 |
| JordyNew | one sec while i try this. | 02:01 |
| JordyNew | ok, i have the file repackaged in a tar.gz in /usr/src/ | 02:03 |
| JordyNew | what's my next step superm1? | 02:03 |
| superm1 | JordyNew, okay now run this | 02:04 |
| superm1 | sudo dpkg-reconfigure lirc-modules-source | 02:04 |
| superm1 | and pick the mceusb2 driver | 02:05 |
| superm1 | only | 02:05 |
| JordyNew | ok and tell it no on automatically building? | 02:05 |
| JordyNew | ok, i chose no, and then what? | 02:07 |
| superm1 | choose no | 02:08 |
| superm1 | and let it replace the file | 02:08 |
| JordyNew | ok | 02:08 |
| superm1 | check /etc/lirc/lirc-modules-source.conf | 02:08 |
| superm1 | and make sure it is listed in there | 02:08 |
| superm1 | in case you accidently mischose (its a common mistake) | 02:08 |
| JordyNew | yep, it's mceusb2 | 02:09 |
| JordyNew | i'm guessing the next step is actually getting it to compile? | 02:11 |
| superm1 | yup | 02:11 |
| JordyNew | ok | 02:11 |
| superm1 | sudo m-a update,prepare | 02:11 |
| superm1 | will prepare it to build | 02:11 |
| superm1 | and then | 02:11 |
| superm1 | sudo m-a a-i lirc | 02:11 |
| superm1 | will build it | 02:11 |
| superm1 | and install it | 02:11 |
| JordyNew | ok and then i can try irw? | 02:13 |
| superm1 | not yet | 02:15 |
| superm1 | once its installed, you need to go and remove the old one | 02:15 |
| superm1 | its in /lib/modules/`uname -a` somewhere | 02:15 |
| superm1 | so issue a find /lib/modules/`uname -a` -name lirc_mceusb2.ko | 02:15 |
| superm1 | and once you find it, you need to rename that file | 02:15 |
| superm1 | make sure you rename the right one (its in a ubuntu/media/lirc/lirc_mceusb2 subdirectory) | 02:16 |
| JordyNew | ok, i've found the lirc_mceusb2.ko file | 02:21 |
| JordyNew | what do i rename it to? | 02:21 |
| superm1 | sudo mv lirc_mceusb2.ko lirc_mceusb2.ko.old | 02:22 |
| superm1 | that will handle it | 02:23 |
| superm1 | once you've done that, you should still have another file sitting in the misc directory | 02:23 |
| JordyNew | ok, then i copy my lirc_mceusb2.ko from the /usr/src dir? | 02:23 |
| superm1 | it should already be copied over | 02:23 |
| superm1 | after running m-a a-i lirc | 02:23 |
| superm1 | you should have found two in /lib/modules | 02:23 |
| JordyNew | there was only one | 02:24 |
| superm1 | check in /usr/src for a deb then | 02:24 |
| superm1 | like lirc-modules-0.8.2-blah-blah-i386.deb | 02:24 |
| JordyNew | there's a lirc_mceusb2.ko in /usr/src/modules/lirc/drivers/lirc_mceusb2 | 02:25 |
| superm1 | there should be a .deb in there too though | 02:25 |
| superm1 | in /usr/src | 02:25 |
| JordyNew | there are a couple of deb files there | 02:25 |
| superm1 | any related to lirc though? | 02:25 |
| JordyNew | both are | 02:26 |
| superm1 | what are they called? | 02:26 |
| JordyNew | lirc-modules-2.6.22-14-generic_0.8.2-0ubuntu8+2.6.22-14.46_amd64.deb | 02:27 |
| JordyNew | and all that.47_amd64.deb | 02:27 |
| superm1 | ah | 02:27 |
| superm1 | which kernel are you booted to? | 02:27 |
| JordyNew | sorry, how do i tell? | 02:28 |
| superm1 | uname -a | 02:28 |
| superm1 | and have you rebooted since you updated it? | 02:28 |
| JordyNew | i rebooted after the update that you had me do regarding the bug. | 02:28 |
| superm1 | okay so you should be in the new one then | 02:28 |
| superm1 | okay then install the newer .deb | 02:28 |
| superm1 | and it should copy the .ko for you | 02:29 |
| JordyNew | i'm running 6.22-14 | 02:29 |
| JordyNew | ok, how do i install it, sorry | 02:29 |
| JordyNew | i think i just double click on it in the gui, right? | 02:34 |
| JordyNew | it said it was rebuilding the lirc module but it didn't copy another .ko file into that ubuntu/media directory, still just the .ko.old file there. | 02:36 |
| JordyNew | looks like it's putting the new .ko file into generic instead of lirc_mceusb2 | 02:39 |
| JordyNew | i mean misc | 02:40 |
| superm1 | whoops sorry | 02:42 |
| superm1 | stepped otu | 02:42 |
| superm1 | it copies it to the misc directory | 02:42 |
| JordyNew | yes | 02:42 |
| superm1 | in /lib/modules/`uname -a` | 02:42 |
| JordyNew | yes | 02:42 |
| superm1 | that's fine | 02:42 |
| JordyNew | and also a lirc_dev.ko file there too | 02:42 |
| superm1 | so what you do is run | 02:42 |
| superm1 | sudo depmod -a | 02:42 |
| superm1 | and then it will update the module list | 02:42 |
| superm1 | you can then run | 02:42 |
| superm1 | sudo rmmod lirc_dev | 02:42 |
| superm1 | sudo rmmod lirc_mceusb2 | 02:43 |
| superm1 | to unload the old ones | 02:43 |
| superm1 | and then sudo modprobe lirc_mceusb2 | 02:43 |
| superm1 | and then | 02:43 |
| superm1 | sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart | 02:43 |
| superm1 | to restart lirc | 02:43 |
| Iolaus | Hey guys, I just started from scratch installing Mythbuntu 7.10 from the LiveCD and then changing to trunk. | 02:43 |
| Iolaus | I got the same error this time around. | 02:43 |
| superm1 | Iolaus, something might be wrong with the trunk packages | 02:43 |
| superm1 | i'll poke our guy who normally does the trunk stuff | 02:43 |
| superm1 | any more information about it? | 02:44 |
| superm1 | about the error? | 02:44 |
| Iolaus | I'm getting this error from the apt-get | 02:44 |
| Iolaus | Errors were encountered while processing: | 02:44 |
| Iolaus | /var/cache/apt/archives/libmyth-perl_0.20.99+trunk15096-0ubuntu0~mythbuntu1_i386.deb | 02:44 |
| Iolaus | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 02:44 |
| Iolaus | Is there any other place I can dig deeper? | 02:44 |
| superm1 | well you can try not installing that perl package | 02:44 |
| superm1 | just install the others | 02:44 |
| superm1 | and see if it lets you | 02:44 |
| superm1 | i'm not sure how to (easily) look closer at the log though | 02:45 |
| superm1 | /var/lib/dpkg.log | 02:45 |
| superm1 | might tell you more | 02:45 |
| superm1 | i'm not sure | 02:45 |
| Iolaus | how do I do that? The perl package installs as part of the apt-get dist-upgrade | 02:45 |
| Iolaus | doesn't look like dpkg.log has anything relavent | 02:46 |
| JordyNew | i get an error when i try to run rmmod lirc_dev | 02:46 |
| JordyNew | ERROR: Module lirc_dev is in use by lirc_mceusb2 | 02:46 |
| superm1 | JordyNew, rmmod the lirc_mceusb2 first | 02:48 |
| superm1 | then the lirc_dev then | 02:48 |
| JordyNew | ok superm1, it let me restart lircd | 02:50 |
| superm1 | okay so with any luck $things should work now | 02:51 |
| JordyNew | do i start irw now? | 02:51 |
| superm1 | you can | 02:51 |
| JordyNew | gets right back to a prompt. | 02:51 |
| JordyNew | guess it doesn't work | 02:51 |
| superm1 | well check dmesg | 02:51 |
| superm1 | and see if it loaded okay | 02:51 |
| superm1 | and then check that lircd is still running | 02:52 |
| JordyNew | don't see anything in dmesg, and lircd is still running. | 02:54 |
| JordyNew | do i need to reboot? | 02:55 |
| JordyNew | going to try reboot now | 02:56 |
| superm1 | okay | 02:59 |
| JordyNew | ok, rebooted, remote is not working. | 03:01 |
| JordyNew | how do i tell if it has the lirc_mceusb2.c changes that i made? | 03:01 |
| JordyNew | should i see lirc messages in my dmesg? | 03:08 |
| JordyNew | there is no /dev/lirc0 created. could this be part of the problem? | 03:13 |
| JordyNew | i do have a /dev/lircd however | 03:15 |
| superm1 | JordyNew, you sure you modified the lirc_mceusb2 properly | 03:18 |
| superm1 | ? | 03:18 |
| JordyNew | i can send it to you but i'm pretty sure i did | 03:19 |
| superm1 | well the only possible issues here can be mismodified | 03:19 |
| superm1 | or modified for the wrong kernel | 03:19 |
| superm1 | so you can double check to make sure you put it in /lib/modules/`uname -a` once more | 03:20 |
| superm1 | otherwise your modifications appear to have not worked | 03:20 |
| JordyNew | in the misc directory? | 03:20 |
| superm1 | yeah | 03:21 |
| superm1 | that's the right place | 03:21 |
| JordyNew | i have 2 .ko files in the misc directory | 03:21 |
| superm1 | yeah that's it | 03:21 |
| JordyNew | from about 30 minutes ago. | 03:21 |
| superm1 | yeah | 03:21 |
| superm1 | so double check your modifications then | 03:22 |
| superm1 | was it just adding a vendor/product id? | 03:22 |
| superm1 | i suspect? | 03:22 |
| JordyNew | yes, added a vendor line and another case | 03:22 |
| superm1 | sure the vendor was right? | 03:22 |
| superm1 | double checked it? | 03:22 |
| superm1 | checked commas, spacing etc | 03:22 |
| JordyNew | i'll check it again. | 03:22 |
| JordyNew | looks fine | 03:29 |
| superm1 | JordyNew, well not sure what to tell you then :( | 03:31 |
| JordyNew | i see there is a mceusb2.c file i can download from the forum that is supposed to make this remote work. | 03:32 |
| JordyNew | it's the pinnacle mce usb remote | 03:32 |
| JordyNew | that's the thread i'm reading all this stuff in. | 03:33 |
| JordyNew | i'm trying to get my password as i forgot it so I can download the file. | 03:33 |
| JordyNew | if this doesn't work, it might be easier to just get one of the remotes supported natively in ubuntu | 03:38 |
| superm1 | well if someone files a bug on this, i can add it for hardy (using the diff in that post), but if it doesnt work for you then its a moot point | 03:41 |
| tazgodx | i sure hope this work..... | 04:00 |
| === Solar_ is now known as Solarbaby | ||

| nettow0822_ | hey guys | 04:33 |
| nettow0822_ | anyone use netflix plugin? | 04:34 |
| tazgodx | is there a graphical text editor in mythbuntu? | 04:36 |
| superm1 | install one | 04:44 |
| superm1 | gedit | 04:44 |

| * Dr_willis missed the question. :) | 04:47 | |
| tazgodx | im just useing nano for now | 04:48 |
| tazgodx | trying to set up my STB | 04:48 |
| tazgodx | firewire | 04:48 |
| tazgodx | so superm1 i got this new STB from my cable company, there are 2 firewire ports on the back, and they both seem to work. does that mean i can connect 2 different cables and watch 2 different channels when its all done? | 04:49 |
| superm1 | not usually | 04:52 |
| superm1 | but you can try | 04:52 |
| tazgodx | its a new box, i thought i was gonna get the 6200 but i didn't | 04:56 |
| tazgodx | it has HDMI on it, its weird | 04:56 |
| tazgodx | shit im late, ill be back to finish testing this :) | 04:57 |
| warriorforgod | If I have a wintv pvr-150 can I record one channel and watch another at the same time? | 07:45 |
| toorima | warriorforgod: no | 07:56 |
| warriorforgod | toorima: Ok. Next question. What would you recommend for a digital/analog tuner card? | 07:56 |
| toorima | pvr-500 can do that | 07:56 |
| toorima | for hdtv i have the pchdtv5000 | 07:57 |
| toorima | hdhomerun is good if u want 2 hd channels | 07:57 |
| warriorforgod | toorima: where did you get it? | 07:57 |
| warriorforgod | I can't find those on newegg. | 07:57 |
| toorima | from there website | 07:57 |
| toorima | dont think hdhomerun will do sd tho but not sure | 07:58 |
| * laga waves | 08:14 | |
| laga | Iolaus: i've heard you're having issue with the trunk packages. it'd be very helpful if you can give me the _full_ error message, preferably in a pastebin. if you can't do that i'll have to try and reproduce it myself | 08:15 |
| superm1 | laga, i'm pretty sure what i brought to you was a full error | 08:49 |
| superm1 | as in all he was seeing | 08:49 |
| laga | superm1: i kinda doubt that because it's totally useless. but maybe there was an error for which dpkg didn't know what to say. | 08:54 |

| nettow0822 | I'm trying to setup mythflix....do I need to do this on the master backend? | 16:15 |
| pdragon | might try the forums if no one is answering here | 16:15 |
| MRH_1____ | Hi, Just installed mythbunu, but on reboot it freezes at "LIRC is not configured" "Running local boot scripts! | 16:16 |
| MRH_1____ | Any suggestions how to get past this point? Thanks | 16:16 |
| nettow0822 | how can I find out what is my root password for mysql? | 16:40 |
| MRH_1____ | have you tried http://keystoneit.wordpress.com/2006/10/28/resetting-mysql-root-password-in-ubuntu-dapper/ | 16:54 |
| tgm4883 | theres either no root password | 16:58 |
| tgm4883 | or it's stored in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt | 16:59 |
| tgm4883 | probably the latter | 16:59 |
| nettow0822 | i get this message after entering password... | 17:07 |
| nettow0822 | Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' | 17:07 |
| nettow0822 | i'm trying to do this on a slave backend / frontend | 17:07 |
| alexvd_ | Hi I have a directv external tuner box connected via cable and using the channel change script. I have enabled the script and permissions. It worked at first however now it doesnt seem to be working. I can still run the script at command prompt with no issues and I get no errors in the logs. How do I troubleshoot this? | 17:16 |
| alexvd_ | The issue is when i try to change channels from another frontend with capture cards on the masterbackend | 17:17 |
| alexvd_ | avan3944 | 17:17 |
| alexvd_ | oops | 17:17 |
| alexvd_ | disregard that | 17:17 |
| arnath01 | hi, we currently have digital tv here instead of good ol' analog, can mythbuntu handle that in some way? | 17:23 |
| tgm4883 | arnath01, with a tuner, yes | 17:24 |
| tgm4883 | where do you live | 17:24 |
| arnath01 | belgium | 17:24 |
| tgm4883 | hmm, not sure i know anyone from belgium | 17:24 |
| arnath01 | tgm4883: what do you mean "with a tuner"? (i'm a bit of a noob when it comes to this particular subject :P) | 17:24 |
| tgm4883 | well, you have to get the signal into your pc somehow | 17:25 |
| arnath01 | yes that was my problem :) | 17:25 |
| tgm4883 | how do you receive the signal? | 17:25 |
| tgm4883 | ie, satellite, cable, OTA, etc | 17:25 |
| arnath01 | i'm not entirely sure, but most of it is through coax i believe | 17:25 |
| arnath01 | although there is an ethernet component as well | 17:25 |
| laga | you probably want a dvb-c card, but i'm not sure what you guys use in belgium | 17:26 |
| tgm4883 | interesting | 17:26 |
| tgm4883 | ah its laga | 17:26 |
| laga | hm, mkight be IPTv then o_O | 17:26 |
| tgm4883 | the exact guy i was going to ping | 17:26 |
| laga | s/mkight/might/ | 17:26 |
| laga | tgm4883: heh :) | 17:26 |
| laga | well, arnath01: you should find out how you're getting the signal :) | 17:26 |
| tgm4883 | laga, you're my official contact for europe | 17:26 |
| arnath01 | laga: heh, that nasty little task will have to wait i'm afraid, damned exams coming up :P | 17:27 |
| laga | i'd love to talk to chat more with you guys, but i need have this midterm tomorrow :) | 17:27 |
| arnath01 | but thanks for the feedback, now at least i know where to start hehe | 17:27 |
| laga | arnath01: hehe :) | 17:27 |
| laga | s/need have/have/ | 17:27 |
| arnath01 | tgm4883: on another note -> i have most of my media (i tend to rip dvds/cds i have, because i dislike inserting dvds/cds all the time) on an external usb drive, what's the easiest way to share those files over my network to view on my tv? | 17:28 |
| arnath01 | (i am currently running mythbuntu virtualized) | 17:29 |
| tgm4883 | arnath01, probably NFS. Just setup an NFS share, mount in on the mythbuntu machine, and use mythvideo to watch the videos | 17:31 |
| tgm4883 | do you know how to setup NFS? | 17:31 |
| arnath01 | tgm4883: ye :) | 17:31 |
| tgm4883 | k | 17:31 |
| tgm4883 | i'll have to go for awhile, but will be back later. People will also check in so if you have a question, post it. | 17:31 |
| arnath01 | though i'm having problems with my usb on NFS, as ubuntu only has a 50% chance of automatically mounting the usb when i start it up :s | 17:31 |
| tgm4883 | hmm | 17:32 |
| arnath01 | i haven't found a pattern in it yet, it just seems to be random luck | 17:32 |
| tgm4883 | strange | 17:32 |
| arnath01 | but it's massively annoying as nfs (afaik) depends on static environments | 17:32 |
| tgm4883 | well, just NFS a directory, and force the usb drive to always mount in a subdir of that directory | 17:33 |
| laga | does it? so let's say you share a directory.. | 17:33 |
| laga | yeah, what he said. | 17:33 |
| tgm4883 | :)\ | 17:33 |
| tgm4883 | to the share, it will just look like you are adding something to the dir | 17:33 |
| arnath01 | hmm, i tried automounting it, but this had some other problems, but it's been a while, i forgot what they were | 17:33 |
| tgm4883 | and should work fine | 17:33 |
| arnath01 | i shall have to delve into my nfs structure again i guess :D | 17:34 |
| tgm4883 | can anyone recommend a USB HD tuner? | 17:38 |
| nettow0822 | ok got mythflix working.....i had to be on the masterbackend | 17:47 |
| MilhousePunkRock | Hello everyone! | 18:53 |
| MilhousePunkRock | What's wrong when scanning for channels tells me "could not address card" and on the next page I get "Programmer error, see console"? | 18:53 |
| laga | you need to look at the console | 19:07 |
| laga | and stop cross-posting ;) | 19:07 |

| nettow0822 | need help.... | 21:36 |
| laga | ask a question? | 21:36 |
| nettow0822 | I have two HD cards....pcHDTV 5500 pci and Dvico fusion rt pcie.... | 21:37 |
| nettow0822 | I just updated the drivers from the linuxtv.org site for the Dvico fusion rt pcie | 21:38 |
| nettow0822 | I see both cards using lspci | 21:38 |
| laga | and what's your question? | 21:40 |
| nettow0822 | when trying to setup the Dvico fusion rt pcie in mythbackend.... | 21:40 |
| nettow0822 | all I see is the pcHDTV 5500 card | 21:40 |
| nettow0822 | is there something I am missing during the backend setup? | 21:41 |
| laga | does the driver load for the dvico? does it show up in dmesg? | 21:41 |
| nettow0822 | well maybe it isn't showing in lspci....got some work to do | 21:46 |
| laga | k | 21:46 |
| directhex | is there a way to make a fully automated ubiquity-based install cd, or is that restricted only to d-i? | 21:50 |
| * directhex reckons you guys have experience with ubiquity fiddling | 21:50 | |
| tazgodx | anyone have any expertise with firewire setup? | 23:42 |
