| Dr_willis | lime4x4, last i looked at sirus radio web site - i couldent even get it to work with linux. | 00:15 |
|---|---|---|
| TazgodX | sooooo, anyone actually able to get mythstreamtv to work on mythbuntu? | 00:18 |
| TazgodX | is there a way to d/l videos on my mythbox over mythweb to a networked PC? | 00:22 |
| rhpot1991 | TazgodX: I have seen words about setting it up to play in vnc with that menthod, so I would imagine if you setup the directory access correctly you could just right click and save as | 00:31 |
| rhpot1991 | you could just set up a samba or nfs share too | 00:32 |
| blkorpheus | where can I get a good mkiconmap.pl? | 00:34 |
| blkorpheus | can someone pastebin theirs for me? | 00:35 |
| rhpot1991 | /usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib | 00:35 |
| _andrew | TazgodX: I can send you a small Perl script you can set up to download the files from a web server, although it's not pretty and there's some assembly required. | 00:36 |
| blkorpheus | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=659623 | 00:36 |
| rhpot1991 | he could just set up apache to host out his recordings folder | 00:38 |
| rhpot1991 | easy enough to do, but the names of the files would drive me crazy | 00:38 |
| _andrew | Yeah, the Perl script grabs the names out of the database :) | 00:38 |
| rhpot1991 | blkorpheus: I think that mkikons.pl doesn't work | 00:39 |
| rhpot1991 | or didn't last I tried it | 00:39 |
| rhpot1991 | kept saying zip code was invalid | 00:39 |
| blkorpheus | I'm on the hunt for a good one | 00:39 |
| blkorpheus | think maybe in the myth source | 00:40 |
| TazgodX | _andrew is it easy? | 00:40 |
| _andrew | Depends - how good are you at configuring Apache? | 00:41 |
| TazgodX | well...i can follow directions... :) | 00:41 |
| _andrew | Then it depends on how good am I at describing this stuff on IRC... | 00:41 |
| TazgodX | sooo, shall we get started? :) | 00:42 |
| rhpot1991 | blkorpheus: actually it seems to be working better | 00:42 |
| blkorpheus | what do you mean? | 00:44 |
| blkorpheus | is the file empty? | 00:45 |
| rhpot1991 | actually | 00:45 |
| blkorpheus | does it ask for your zipcode? | 00:45 |
| rhpot1991 | did the same thing that the forum post says | 00:45 |
| blkorpheus | can you pastebin the contents for me please? | 00:45 |
| _andrew | TazgodX, I was gonna do this privately, to keep the noise out of the channel. | 00:45 |
| rhpot1991 | contents of what? | 00:45 |
| blkorpheus | where can I get a good mkiconmap.pl? | 00:45 |
| rhpot1991 | it used to hang on the zip, but its getting past that atleast | 00:45 |
| rhpot1991 | scroll up, I told you were it is at on your system | 00:46 |
| blkorpheus | my file is blank | 00:46 |
| rhpot1991 | its prob in a .gz file | 00:46 |
| blkorpheus | so again, could you pastebin the contents for that file so I can use it? | 00:46 |
| rhpot1991 | that you need to extract | 00:46 |
| blkorpheus | I've done that, thats how I know its blank | 00:46 |
| blkorpheus | could you do that for me? | 00:46 |
| _andrew | TazgodX: I dunno if you can see me PMing you, but you've got some time to look while I clean up the script :) | 00:48 |
| TazgodX | ill eat really fast then :) | 00:49 |
| _andrew | Let me know when you get back. | 00:49 |
| rhpot1991 | prob wont help you much though, as it doesn't seem to be working | 00:53 |
| rhpot1991 | go search around on the mailing list about the master icons file | 00:53 |
| rhpot1991 | I think thats the latest and greatest way to do the icons | 00:53 |
| Dr_willis | well i got my MythTV box going again.. and was bout to sign up for schedulesdirect. and the wife decided we dont need cable tv.. :() | 00:59 |
| blkorpheus | Mkiconmap is deprecated, it's now done with master_iconmap | 01:16 |
| TazgodX | _andrew, im back....just don't know for how long :) should be a while tho | 01:16 |
| blkorpheus | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Channel_icons | 01:16 |
| _andrew | TazgodX: alright, let's have a go... | 01:17 |
| blkorpheus | thats why mkiconmap does nt work | 01:17 |
| blkorpheus | ERROR:No icons were found. Please check 'na_icon_error.html' | 01:17 |
| _andrew | The file I'm sending you, put it in /usr/lib/cgi/bin | 01:17 |
| _andrew | (`sudo mv recorded-mythtv.pl /usr/lib/cgi-bin` in the console) | 01:18 |
| TazgodX | i not on my mythbuntu box....but we can attmept | 01:18 |
| TazgodX | i can putty in | 01:18 |
| _andrew | Yeah, that should be alright. | 01:18 |
| _andrew | Anyway, accept the file, and you can paste it over or something. | 01:19 |
| TazgodX | yeah, i have auto accept on... | 01:19 |
| TazgodX | shoot | 01:19 |
| === tritium_ is now known as tritium | ||
| _andrew | Don't tell me - I have to go work out how to use pastebin? | 01:20 |
| TazgodX | haha can't send? | 01:20 |
| _andrew | Apparently not. | 01:20 |
| TazgodX | i wasn't recognized, i just authed with nickserv | 01:21 |
| TazgodX | try now | 01:21 |
| _andrew | Nah, it's okay - just do `sudo wget http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d3278f227 -O /usr/lib/cgi-bin/recorded-mythtv.pl` on your Linux box. | 01:22 |
| TazgodX | thats actually better for me :) | 01:23 |
| _andrew | I suspected as much. | 01:23 |
| TazgodX | ok | 01:24 |
| _andrew | Next, `sudo chmod 555 /usr/lib/cgi-bin/recorded-mythtv.pl`. | 01:24 |
| _andrew | Which distro are you using? | 01:24 |
| _andrew | Or to be more precise, do you have a /etc/httpd/ or a /etc/apache/ directory? | 01:24 |
| TazgodX | 7.10 mythbuntu | 01:24 |
| _andrew | Good. | 01:24 |
| _andrew | `echo ScriptAlias /recordings /usr/lib/cgi-bin/recorded-mythtv.pl | sudo dd of="/etc/apache2/conf.d/recorded-mythtv"` | 01:25 |
| _andrew | `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload` | 01:25 |
| _andrew | Oh, and then the bit that's a security risk... | 01:25 |
| _andrew | `chmod 644 /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt` | 01:26 |
| TazgodX | had to sudo that last one | 01:26 |
| _andrew | It's probably safe to do that if this is your personal machine, but not if anyone else has access to it. | 01:26 |
| _andrew | Yeah. | 01:26 |
| _andrew | Anyway, if you promise not to come after me when you get hacked, I think we're done. | 01:27 |
| TazgodX | lol | 01:27 |
| _andrew | You should now be able to go to http://<your-machine>/recordings/ | 01:27 |
| TazgodX | who would want to hack a mythtv box? | 01:27 |
| _andrew | Pirates! | 01:27 |
| TazgodX | and, i can d/l anything in recordings now? what about if i put something in my videos folder? pull that too? | 01:28 |
| _andrew | Er, I don't think so. | 01:28 |
| _andrew | I don't have anything in my videos folder, so I didn't bother doing that. | 01:28 |
| _andrew | If you want to do that, you could make it your first programming project. Shouldn't be too hard. | 01:29 |
| TazgodX | i get an error goign to recordings dir | 01:29 |
| TazgodX | The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. | 01:29 |
| _andrew | :s | 01:29 |
| _andrew | Yeah, that was a bit too easy I guess. | 01:30 |
| TazgodX | lol | 01:30 |
| _andrew | So what happens if you run `/usr/lib/cgi-bin/recorded-mythtv.pl` on the command line? | 01:30 |
| TazgodX | -bash: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/recorded-mythtv.pl: /usr/bin/perl^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory | 01:31 |
| _andrew | :s | 01:31 |
| _andrew | <waves fist at pastebin> | 01:31 |
| _andrew | I'll have a look... | 01:32 |
| _andrew | Right... | 01:34 |
| _andrew | wget http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d3278f227 -O - | sed 's/.$//' | sudo dd of="/usr/lib/cgi-bin/recorded-mythtv.pl"` | 01:35 |
| _andrew | Then, `sudo chmod 555 /usr/lib/cgi-bin/recorded-mythtv.pl`. | 01:35 |
| TazgodX | ok | 01:37 |
| TazgodX | looks like it works | 01:37 |
| TazgodX | :) | 01:37 |
| TazgodX | thanks | 01:37 |
| _andrew | :) | 01:37 |
| _andrew | No problem. | 01:37 |
| TazgodX | how hard would it be to convert this for a http://<my machine>/videos for the videos folder? :) | 01:38 |
| _andrew | I don't know - it depends what information MythTV itself has about videos in there. | 01:39 |
| _andrew | If there's not much information, you might be better off just doing `sudo ln -s <my-mythvideo-directory> /var/www/videos`. | 01:40 |
| _andrew | Which is even cheaper and nastier than my script, but should work. | 01:41 |
| TazgodX | lol | 01:41 |
| jesse | hello | 02:42 |
| toorima | anyone knows what lineup to pick when downloading channel icons, I allready have icons for SD but I get some HD channels for free over the air and dont know what lineup that would be | 02:43 |
| jesse | i was wondering if someone could help me.. i cannot seem to get my audio to work correctly on my DVICO fusionHDTV3 | 02:43 |
| jesse | someone please help me lol | 02:43 |
| jesse | am i going to need a different card? | 02:43 |
| jesse | toorima cant you use EIT to pick up that information? | 02:46 |
| toorima | pick up the icons? | 02:47 |
| jesse | oh hmm | 02:48 |
| jesse | I dunno man | 02:48 |
| jesse | i'm new to the world | 02:48 |
| jesse | what tv tuner card are you using toorima | 02:48 |
| toorima | i use schedulesdirect for my program info, just wanted some icons too | 02:48 |
| jesse | i think i need to get a different one | 02:48 |
| toorima | i use the pvr150 for sd and pchdtv5500 for hd | 02:48 |
| jesse | how clear does the pchdtv5500 come in? | 02:49 |
| toorima | it is very nice and clear | 02:49 |
| jesse | hmm | 02:49 |
| jesse | currently i have a Dvico and i'm having problems | 02:49 |
| jesse | i cant get my audio to work right.. | 02:49 |
| toorima | perfect picture most of the time and that is on a 42" plasma | 02:50 |
| jesse | dang | 02:50 |
| jesse | would u have any idea what my prob may be? | 02:50 |
| jesse | it seems like it isnt porting the audio thru the pci bus | 02:50 |
| jesse | it has some cable you can connect to your audio card | 02:50 |
| toorima | well hd just captures the stream so | 02:50 |
| jesse | i'm wondering if maybe i dont have to keep that on :-\ | 02:50 |
| jesse | well its giving me probs in both SD and HD | 02:51 |
| jesse | :( | 02:51 |
| toorima | i had soundproblems at first, using optical sound | 02:51 |
| jesse | so how do you get around it? | 02:51 |
| toorima | so i recorded a little bit, and played the file on another computer | 02:51 |
| toorima | just to see that i had sound in the file | 02:51 |
| jesse | yeah | 02:52 |
| jesse | hmm | 02:52 |
| toorima | had to do some config to get the optical sound to work | 02:52 |
| toorima | to my amp | 02:52 |
| jesse | what os are you running? | 02:52 |
| toorima | mythbuntu | 02:52 |
| jesse | same here | 02:53 |
| jesse | i tried mythdora | 02:53 |
| jesse | i managed to get sound but it was really bad quality | 02:53 |
| jesse | i dunno what to do about this damn thing | 02:53 |
| toorima | i tried mythdora to but didnt like it | 02:53 |
| jesse | yeah i like mythbuntu more | 02:53 |
| toorima | never liked red hat either so | 02:54 |
| jesse | oh | 02:54 |
| jesse | i learned on fc5 | 02:54 |
| jesse | liked it back then.. but everything was pretty equal back then | 02:54 |
| jesse | no os seemed to have an upper hand for a newbie | 02:54 |
| toorima | allways like apt | 02:54 |
| toorima | over rpm | 02:54 |
| jesse | yeah | 02:54 |
| jesse | i like source.. lol | 02:54 |
| toorima | hehe | 02:54 |
| jesse | i've been using slackware on my main since 10.1 | 02:54 |
| toorima | i started on slack in 99 | 02:55 |
| toorima | but moved to debian after a year or so | 02:55 |
| jesse | you have any idea how well slack would do as a myth box? | 02:57 |
| jesse | may do that or arch | 02:57 |
| toorima | havent used slack since but should do good | 02:57 |
| jesse | hmm | 02:57 |
| jesse | maybe i should give that try | 02:57 |
| jesse | but i wonder how hard it'd be to get the remote to work w/ it | 02:58 |
| jesse | i think slacks kernel should have most tv tuners | 02:58 |
| jesse | but remote.. :-\ | 02:58 |
| toorima | should have it | 02:58 |
| toorima | but yeah lirc can be a pain | 02:58 |
| jesse | what is lirc? lol | 02:59 |
| jesse | sorry.. new to it | 02:59 |
| === tritium_ is now known as tritium | ||
| toorima | the program that handles remotes | 03:00 |
| toorima | it could be horrible to set up manually and get all buttons to work | 03:01 |
| jesse | yeah | 03:01 |
| jesse | i better do some investigating | 03:01 |
| jesse | arch seems like it'd be really good tho | 03:02 |
| jesse | arch is a very up to date, always updating os | 03:02 |
| toorima | http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=slackware+mythtv&btnG=Google+Search | 03:02 |
| jesse | and easy to customize as far as running deamons | 03:02 |
| toorima | some nice stuff there | 03:02 |
| jesse | oh thanks man | 03:03 |
| toorima | i tried arch once but on a brand new laptop, didnt go well but gonna try it again when i have more time | 03:03 |
| toorima | arch looks good | 03:03 |
| jesse | yeah arch is good | 03:03 |
| jesse | i use it on my laptop | 03:03 |
| jesse | i have cpu scaling and some other stuff | 03:04 |
| toorima | will probably be my next os then | 03:04 |
| slestak | anyone using a dvico hdtv5 gold for dvb-t? im having a heck of a time setting up a channel.conf for this thing | 03:04 |
| jesse | i have it set up so i can set the cpu priority which then regulates the fan speed... if the battery gets low then it changes the cpu & fan accordingly | 03:04 |
| slestak | i have tried using scan from dvb-utils as well as w_scan to no avail | 03:05 |
| toorima | jesse: nice | 03:05 |
| jesse | slestak.. i have the dvico fushion hdtv3 and am having probs w/ audio | 03:05 |
| jesse | yeah it is pretty bitchin lol | 03:05 |
| slestak | with the analog or hd side? | 03:05 |
| jesse | and w/ that 9 cell battery it seems to last a while | 03:05 |
| jesse | sletak.. pm ? | 03:05 |
| jesse | and analog | 03:05 |
| slestak | pm is fine | 03:06 |
| toorima | hmm see if i can add the icons manually instead | 03:06 |
| slestak | jesse: not sure how to start a pm in irssi | 03:06 |
| jesse | ok | 03:07 |
| jesse | well | 03:07 |
| jesse | i can get audio to stream thru that cable | 03:07 |
| jesse | but i cant get it to actually enter the pc | 03:07 |
| jesse | it just streams it straight out my sound card | 03:07 |
| jesse | so if i pause or record it only gets video.. no audio | 03:07 |
| jesse | slestak? | 03:08 |
| slestak | i havent gotten far enough to tackle audio. im using spdif and the alsa to get audio to my receiver | 03:08 |
| jesse | but can you pause it? | 03:09 |
| jesse | i can get audio to come out if i plug it into my sound card and enable aux audio | 03:09 |
| jesse | but it only streams it straight out to my speaker | 03:09 |
| slestak | i dont know, i do not have any channels setupyet. autoscan is not getting anythig, as well as scan and w_scan | 03:09 |
| jesse | yeah my scans couldnt pick anything up either | 03:10 |
| slestak | how did you get your channel data? | 03:10 |
| jesse | i only have analog | 03:10 |
| jesse | do u not have that either? | 03:10 |
| slestak | i could set that up, im mainly interested in DT though | 03:10 |
| jesse | did you set up a video source? | 03:11 |
| slestak | im not even sure i will setup sd if i can get dt working | 03:11 |
| jesse | yeah | 03:11 |
| jesse | well did u set up a video source? | 03:11 |
| slestak | yes, i setup a video source, capture device, input, etc. | 03:11 |
| slestak | im working out of myth right now to see that the card is functional | 03:12 |
| jesse | but did you set up a video source for atsc / dvb using EIT? | 03:12 |
| slestak | maybe with vlc or mplayer | 03:12 |
| slestak | i dont think i did. | 03:12 |
| jesse | try that | 03:12 |
| jesse | maybe thats the prob.. | 03:12 |
| slestak | is that in mythbackendsetup? | 03:12 |
| jesse | yeah | 03:12 |
| jesse | mythtv-setup | 03:12 |
| slestak | the only capture card i have setup is DVB:0 | 03:14 |
| jesse | hm | 03:15 |
| slestak | video sources, us-bcast schedules direct feed. | 03:15 |
| jesse | try pcHDTV DTV capture | 03:15 |
| jesse | w/ V4L drivers | 03:15 |
| slestak | ok, i'll reset it | 03:15 |
| slestak | video device /dev/video0? | 03:16 |
| slestak | jesse: where is the EIT setting made? | 03:17 |
| jesse | its an option in the video source selection | 03:17 |
| jesse | u can either set up no grabber, eit, or schedules direct | 03:18 |
| slestak | oh, i already have a SD acct, should i use eit instead? | 03:19 |
| jesse | for hd maybe? | 03:19 |
| jesse | lol | 03:19 |
| jesse | i dunno.. i'm experimenting | 03:19 |
| slestak | i see it now, i'll try it. | 03:19 |
| jesse | i'm starting to wonder if maybe we dont have the wrong video card.. :-\ | 03:19 |
| jesse | from what i read Dvico is supposed to be good | 03:19 |
| jesse | but after looking at other ppls htpc's i wonder | 03:20 |
| jesse | everyones using something different | 03:20 |
| jesse | alot using pvr 150 for SD and pcHDTV for HD | 03:20 |
| slestak | im not seeing anything different on the atsc scan | 03:20 |
| jesse | when u scan what configs do u use.. | 03:21 |
| jesse | like freq table | 03:21 |
| jesse | atsc mod | 03:21 |
| slestak | freq table broadcast, atsc 8-vsb (i want ota only) channel sep "-" | 03:22 |
| jesse | try using a qam? | 03:22 |
| slestak | qam for ota? ive only seen that listed for cable | 03:23 |
| jesse | oo ur only doin broadcast | 03:23 |
| jesse | hmm | 03:23 |
| jesse | since my card only has 1 input how could i run cable and an HD int. to it? | 03:24 |
| jesse | get a 2 to 1, male to 2 male connector? | 03:24 |
| slestak | when i move the antenna to the tv to use the internal tuner, i get 5+ ota perfectly, so i know th eposition of the ant and the signal strength is there | 03:24 |
| jesse | hmm | 03:24 |
| slestak | during the scan, it says "No Lock" while its doing it | 03:25 |
| jesse | same here | 03:25 |
| jesse | it cant find the channel.. | 03:25 |
| jesse | maybe dvico is just junk? | 03:28 |
| jesse | :-\ | 03:28 |
| slestak | dunno. im seeing success on the forums, ive only had it since yesterday | 03:29 |
| slestak | i think it would help me if i had done this with an analog first before adding the complexity of hdtv channels.conf | 03:30 |
| jesse | yeah.. | 03:31 |
| jesse | how much did you pay for that card if you dont mind saying | 03:31 |
| jesse | i was looking at going for the #5 if i couldnt get my #3 to work | 03:31 |
| slestak | 149, that included a set of rabbit ears | 03:31 |
| slestak | snapstream.com | 03:31 |

| jesse | lol | 03:32 |
| jesse | 149.. not bad | 03:33 |
| slestak | when you do mythfilldb you can see the connection on the console, can you see ht eport number there? | 03:33 |
| jesse | i paid $39 + $15ish for SH... ebay | 03:33 |
| slestak | im having some success! | 03:33 |
| slestak | i saw wxmi go by on the scan | 03:33 |
| jesse | what are your settings? lol | 03:33 |
| slestak | just a sec | 03:34 |
| jesse | ok lol | 03:34 |
| jesse | i wanna try it too | 03:34 |
| jesse | lol | 03:34 |
| slestak | i didnt use the v4l capture card, i used the one i was set to initially. dvb dtv capture card | 03:35 |
| jesse | hmm | 03:35 |
| jesse | i'll have to try that one also | 03:35 |
| slestak | the frontend id will change to dvico v2 | 03:35 |
| slestak | i used eit instead of scheduled direc. | 03:35 |
| jesse | ? | 03:35 |
| jesse | ok | 03:35 |

| slestak | not exactly smooth, but im just getting started | 03:39 |
| jesse | get an external HD reciever | 03:40 |
| slestak | i have 9.00 rabbit ears from Menards | 03:40 |
| jesse | i heard those externals PULL channels | 03:40 |
| slestak | i have an estimate in to get a roof antenna | 03:42 |
| jesse | use the tax return? | 03:42 |
| jesse | lol | 03:42 |
| jesse | i saw some small ones you can mount right out a window for fairly cheap | 03:42 |
| jesse | u gonna try analog? | 03:42 |
| jesse | plz lol | 03:42 |
| slestak | my mythfrontend is using all the cpu ive got. | 03:43 |
| slestak | very choppy video | 03:43 |
| jesse | do u have audio w/ the HD? | 03:43 |
| slestak | yes | 03:43 |
| jesse | hmm | 03:43 |
| jesse | can you try analog plz | 03:43 |
| slestak | choppy video though. | 03:43 |
| jesse | i may get a dvico #5 | 03:43 |
| jesse | yeah | 03:43 |
| jesse | what CPU u have? | 03:43 |
| slestak | my machine is a p4, 3G with 2 g of ram, thought it would be able to hang | 03:44 |
| jesse | yeah it should | 03:44 |
| jesse | i'm running a p4 2.2ghz | 03:44 |
| jesse | limit your audio sampling | 03:44 |
| jesse | i forget where its at | 03:44 |
| jesse | but as long as you keep it above like 4.1khz... 4100hz the human ear wont notice | 03:45 |
| jesse | could prolly even drop it below that | 03:45 |
| jesse | given the abuse i gave my ears in highschool w/ bass lol | 03:46 |
| jesse | prolly wont notice much at the lowest setting | 03:46 |
| slestak | i see it on the capture card setup, but i only have two choices, 32k or 44k | 03:47 |
| jesse | DUDE i'm pullin HD too | 03:47 |
| slestak | but thats on teh analog options | 03:47 |
| jesse | try 32 see how it does | 03:47 |
| jesse | o | 03:47 |
| jesse | how did you route your audio? | 03:48 |
| jesse | i need help w/ that if you can man | 03:48 |
| slestak | do you have spdif connection on your sound card? the digital finer link | 03:48 |
| jesse | i dunno what that means lol | 03:48 |
| jesse | i have that thing that connects from the capture to the sound | 03:49 |
| slestak | do you have a fiber optic connection on your sound card, its a wird plug that snaps in | 03:49 |
| jesse | its plugged into the TAD | 03:49 |
| jesse | yeah | 03:49 |
| jesse | where do i have to plug it in to | 03:49 |
| slestak | i have that running to a denon av receiver | 03:49 |
| slestak | so im exporting my sound | 03:50 |
| jesse | oo | 03:50 |
| jesse | so if u pause the video does the sound keep streaming? | 03:50 |
| slestak | could you run your output out one jack and then back in the mic input? | 03:50 |
| slestak | my video is too choppy | 03:50 |
| jesse | try analog | 03:50 |
| jesse | tell me how well it works? lol | 03:50 |
| slestak | im not sure how to setup analog | 03:50 |
| jesse | just do the analog tuner w/ the schedules direct source | 03:51 |
| jesse | its pretty cake | 03:51 |
| slestak | i need to setup that lineup, i deleted all the analog stations | 03:51 |
| jesse | ooo | 03:52 |
| slestak | i may need to change my tv input, i am using vga, which is like 1280 x sth resoluiotn, maybe the hd is being scaled (the high cpu). i have an hdmi input i can try | 03:53 |
| jesse | yeah | 03:53 |
| slestak | so i should have to capture cards setup, one for hd channels and another for analog? from the same physical card? | 03:53 |
| jesse | i have DVI out to my monitor and Svid cloned to my CRT tv | 03:53 |
| jesse | i think so | 03:53 |
| slestak | i think i have a lockup. no activity when selecting new capture card | 03:54 |
| slestak | im going to reboot and try the hdmi input | 03:55 |
| slestak | back in a minute | 03:56 |
| slestak | jesse: well, the frontend is using a lot less cpu with the hdmi, but i also have no output | 04:09 |
| slestak | since i had a lockup, im going to make sure my last settings were saved | 04:09 |
| jesse | hmm | 04:11 |
| jesse | alright | 04:11 |
| jesse | mne locked up too.. now my tv tuner isnt working :-\ | 04:11 |
| slestak | i have some overscan with the hdmi input. on the right and left i lose about 5% of the screen, enought to not see some of the setup. is it possible to "crop" or hardcode a factor in the ui to ge tthis back? | 04:13 |
| jesse | i dunno | 04:15 |
| slestak | great, so much for ubuntus unbreakable X, now its pulling down 100% cpu | 04:16 |
| toorima | damn put in some high-res icons for my hd channels now, looks good | 04:16 |
| jesse | lol | 04:17 |
| jesse | can you pause your video tho? | 04:17 |
| slestak | what resolution are you running your hd at? | 04:17 |
| slestak | i dunno yet, not stable yet | 04:17 |
| jesse | right now i'm not | 04:17 |
| jesse | i cant get anything to work | 04:17 |
| jesse | i had to kill power to it | 04:17 |
| toorima | anyone know how to change the order of the channels? i have the channels in order in mythweb but while "zaping" around they are not in numerical order | 04:17 |
| jesse | now tuner doesnt work | 04:17 |
| slestak | i dont have a remote configured, so im not sure how to pauise with the keyboard | 04:18 |
| jesse | p | 04:18 |
| jesse | does your audio continue to play? | 04:18 |
| slestak | cant tel yet, im doing another reboot | 04:18 |
| slestak | i may need to go back to vga input | 04:19 |
| defendguin | hey is there a way to flush the program guide data and download a fresh copy? | 04:20 |
| jesse | i know it does it on its own every so often | 04:21 |
| jesse | dunno how to force it | 04:21 |
| defendguin | bummer the cable company changed the cable lineup and i noticed its updated on the schedules direct site but my box still has outdated channel line up | 04:23 |
| jesse | i think my router is blocking schedules | 04:23 |
| jesse | :( | 04:23 |
| jesse | any chance u know what ports it uses? | 04:23 |
| defendguin | nope | 04:24 |
| slestak | i wonder if the hdmi input could be drm'd up and be blocking hte hd into the tv. worked on vga, just not into hdmi | 04:25 |
| jesse | dunno man | 04:28 |
| slestak | going back to vga input | 04:31 |
| jesse | this sound thing is pissing me off big time lol | 04:31 |
| slestak | crap, had he antenna lead off | 04:32 |
| slestak | ;P | 04:32 |
| jesse | lol | 04:32 |
| defendguin | mythfilldatabase --refresh-today should tell you something jesse | 04:32 |
| slestak | are you going to use this with a stereo at all? | 04:32 |
| slestak | or pc speakers jesse? | 04:32 |
| jesse | i cant get audio out period | 04:33 |
| jesse | unless i plug it directly into my aux | 04:33 |
| jesse | but the aux is fed straight out to speakers | 04:33 |
| jesse | no way to record it | 04:33 |
| slestak | did you get a book with your card, there is some stuff in mine about "direct to dma" audio | 04:34 |
| slestak | ok, even with the antenna connected, nothing on hdmi. i know the mpaa has sth to do with this | 04:35 |
| slestak | wheres my tin foil hat | 04:35 |
| jesse | lol | 04:36 |
| defendguin | frick | 04:39 |
| slestak | jesse: when ipause, the sound pauses as well. it appears to be in sync | 04:41 |
| jesse | fuck balls! | 04:41 |
| jesse | lol | 04:41 |
| jesse | why wont mine :( | 04:42 |
| jesse | do you have that audio cable connect to anything inside the pc? | 04:42 |
| slestak | what in the heck is process apport | 04:42 |
| slestak | looks like mythfrontend crashed | 04:42 |
| jesse | is there a cable that connects from the tv tuner to anything? | 04:42 |
| slestak | i did connect the capture card to the cd-in jumper on the motherboard | 04:43 |
| jesse | hmm | 04:44 |
| jesse | maybe thats my prob.. mines connect to the TAD on my sound card | 04:44 |
| jesse | my sound card doesnt have a CD in.. only TAD and Aux | 04:44 |
| jesse | maybe i should try to connect directly to my motherboard? | 04:44 |
| slestak | the cd-in will be on the moptherboard | 04:46 |
| slestak | i had to look for the manual to find it | 04:46 |
| jesse | in windows it works w/o it tho ? | 04:48 |
| slestak | i dont have windows | 04:48 |
| jesse | well in my windows it will work w/o being connect to the motherboard and i dunno why | 04:48 |
| jesse | oh shit man!!!! | 04:50 |
| jesse | IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 04:50 |
| jesse | i somehow got it to port the audio thru the pci bus | 04:50 |
| jesse | dunno what i did but by god it works | 04:50 |
| jesse | !!!! | 04:50 |
| jesse | THANK YOU JESUS | 04:51 |
| jesse | lol | 04:51 |
| jesse | I think i'm going to install full blown ubuntu tho | 04:51 |
| jesse | then run myth on that | 04:51 |
| slestak | ive been tweaking the playback settings and have the cpu usage down. | 04:51 |
| jesse | kool | 04:53 |
| jesse | hd looking alright? | 04:53 |
| slestak | wonder if i need to deinterlace on an lcd hdtv? | 04:53 |
| slestak | looks better, almost fluid. not quite as smooteh as id like. there is a live feed from the kennedy center on, good material for testing | 04:54 |
| jesse | hmm | 04:54 |
| jesse | kool | 04:54 |
| slestak | well, good luck with your rig | 04:56 |
| slestak | gonna run | 04:56 |
| defendguin | fuck | 04:57 |
| defendguin | how canb the channel lineup still be wrong if it is correct on schedules direct | 05:01 |
| jesse | it hasnt updated to your pc yet | 05:05 |
| jesse | prolly had an error in it when your machine uploaded it | 05:05 |
| jesse | then they corrected but your machine has yet to download the corrected version | 05:06 |
| defendguin | i manually ran a mythfilldatabase --refresh-all and it pulled down all new data | 05:06 |
| lime4x4 | has anyonr gotten sirius online to play thru mythtv? i followed this wikki and when i click on the sirius button it dumps the myth box back to the desktop http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Integrate_Sirius | 05:09 |
| JThundley | if you listen to stern, I record it daily to vorbis, I'll let you in my private stash | 05:26 |
| lime4x4 | i lovr stern. listen to him every morning going to work | 05:28 |
| MythbuntuGuest43 | hi | 06:50 |
| MythbuntuGuest43 | how do i get icons in? | 06:59 |
| SteveBook | Hi all | 09:40 |
| SteveBook | I've got a little problem getting mythbuntu to run on my rig | 09:40 |
| SteveBook | It just hangs at "running local root script (/etc/rc.local) | 09:40 |
| SteveBook | anyone had that problem before? | 09:41 |

| SteveBook | with a SATA hard disk | 09:42 |
| blkorpheus | need help | 13:54 |
| blkorpheus | before I file a bug | 13:54 |
| Seeker` | is there a way to find out what resoution the live TV is running at? | 15:08 |
| javatexan | maybe, I have found via tivo that there are several resolutions that things are broadcasted in. I can have tivo set at High Recording for several channels and get several different resolutions from the recorded files. As I understand it you have 1080i 1080p 480i and 480p and I am not too sure where NTSC and PAL fit into it. | 18:09 |
| javatexan | hope that helps | 18:12 |
| rhpot1991 | Seeker`: if you check under setup, tv, recording profiles | 18:41 |
| rhpot1991 | then chose your recorder and live tv | 18:42 |
| rhpot1991 | you can set it under there | 18:42 |
| blkorpheus | need some assistance with myth-backend | 18:46 |
| rhpot1991 | !ask | 18:46 |
| ubotu | Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 18:46 |
| blkorpheus | that was a statement, but anyway | 18:53 |
| rhpot1991 | still applies | 18:53 |
| rhpot1991 | ask your question so people can see it | 18:53 |
| blkorpheus | the myth-backend is telling me I don't have permissions, my record folder does not exists | 18:53 |
| blkorpheus | all erroneous | 18:53 |
| rhpot1991 | does a recordings folder exist with permissions for the user running myth-backend to write to? | 18:54 |
| blkorpheus | and then it dies. I can run it by itself from term, and it stays running, but the script dies, mentioning the non-existant nfslock fike? | 18:54 |
| blkorpheus | rhpot1991, yes | 18:55 |
| blkorpheus | I moved it from the default location, because of hd space | 18:55 |
| rhpot1991 | and you are sure you changed the location in mythtv-setup? | 18:55 |
| blkorpheus | google reveals others have resolved the issue simply deleting the nfs lock fle | 18:56 |
| blkorpheus | positive | 18:56 |
| blkorpheus | thats why when it said the directory does not exist, I'm looking at it | 18:56 |
| blkorpheus | with the same files it recorded to, when run from term | 18:57 |
| blkorpheus | I can't find a bug for it, and did not want to file until sure it is not user error | 18:57 |
| blkorpheus | Permission denied Unable to open lockfile!, the file is long gone | 18:58 |
| blkorpheus | :( | 18:58 |
| * blkorpheus weeping | 18:58 | |
| blkorpheus | :-P | 18:59 |
| blkorpheus | is myhth keeping old data somewhere? | 18:59 |
| rhpot1991 | what if you make a new empty lock file? | 18:59 |
| blkorpheus | tried that | 18:59 |
| blkorpheus | no dice | 18:59 |
| blkorpheus | same errrot | 19:00 |
| blkorpheus | error | 19:00 |
| rhpot1991 | not really sure | 19:00 |
| rhpot1991 | checked the user mailing list? | 19:00 |
| blkorpheus | only what google came back with | 19:00 |
| blkorpheus | some guy had the same issue, and they just glossed over it | 19:00 |
| blkorpheus | also on the ubuntu forums, for mythbuntu project, another with the issue, and no resolve for me | 19:01 |
| blkorpheus | I even renamed the folder | 19:01 |
| javatexan | I fixed that with the INFAMOUS sudo chmod -R 777 /directory trick | 19:01 |
| blkorpheus | I'd hate to put it backto default | 19:01 |
| javatexan | it was the only way I could do it | 19:01 |
| blkorpheus | did that | 19:01 |
| javatexan | did you restart? | 19:02 |
| blkorpheus | mythtv is the owner and group for everything related | 19:02 |
| blkorpheus | -R | 19:02 |
| blkorpheus | its driving me up a wall | 19:02 |
| javatexan | you are using mythbuntu? | 19:03 |
| javatexan | who is autologging in to the system, mythtv or your user | 19:04 |
| javatexan | my user is logging into mine | 19:04 |
| blkorpheus | its a ubuntu box I installed mythtv on | 19:05 |
| blkorpheus | my user logs in | 19:05 |
| blkorpheus | I can only run myth with sudo or root running mythbackend | 19:06 |
| blkorpheus | I'd like to stop doing it that way | 19:06 |
| rhpot1991 | that shouldn't happen | 19:06 |
| rhpot1991 | when you say myth you mean the back or frontend? | 19:06 |
| blkorpheus | but just now, I started mythbackend via root, and the backend runs flawless. It creates a new nfslock file with root permissions on it, but see the record folder fine, and works as supposed. | 19:07 |
| blkorpheus | backend | 19:07 |
| rhpot1991 | you should be staring myth with sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start | 19:07 |
| blkorpheus | of course | 19:07 |
| blkorpheus | thats why I'm upset | 19:07 |
| rhpot1991 | it will also automagically start like that on boot | 19:07 |
| blkorpheus | the script starts, then dies, talking about permissions etc | 19:08 |
| blkorpheus | I understand how its supposed to work, but it is not | 19:08 |
| javatexan | remember it all depends on who created the directories | 19:11 |
| rhpot1991 | root should have access though, unless you really did something funky | 19:12 |
| blkorpheus | changed it back to the default directory, the script starts and the backend does not fail | 19:13 |
| blkorpheus | ah dios mio | 19:13 |
| blkorpheus | new nfslockfile.lock but wth mythtv user and group 644? | 19:14 |
| blkorpheus | octal permissions 2775 | 19:17 |
| javatexan | thats why you have to be sudo to do it | 19:31 |

| MythbuntuGuest79 | I have used vnc (read vino) to connect one computer running gnome to another. I am not sure how to set anything up though when running gnome on one computer and mythbuntu on the other. I have enabled vnc in the mythbuntu set up but thats all I have. | 20:28 |
| Dr_willis | I normally install vnc4server | 20:29 |
| Dr_willis | im not sure what enabling vnc on the mythubuntu setup does actually. Never tried that. | 20:30 |
| Dr_willis | watching videos over vnc.. is not doable I am thinking. | 20:30 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | I just want to be able to use it when I need to move files around and that kind of thing. I just need a basic gui but no video support | 20:33 |
| Dr_willis | I would say install a light window manager. or use whatever the default is.. ssh in, start 'vnc4server' connect with any vnc client. do what you want.. | 20:37 |
| Dr_willis | No need to use vino/gnome. | 20:37 |
| Dr_willis | Or use mc in the terminal for a nice file manager if you dont like the cli commands. | 20:37 |
| Dr_willis | i normally have a vncserver session going - so i can connect to the box's and do things. :) | 20:38 |
| Dr_willis | its best to use a very light window manager for vnc. I use jwm. | 20:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | is there a how to on that some where you could link me to? I know nothing about ssh | 20:38 |
| Dr_willis | ssh is documented at 100000000000000's of web sites | 20:38 |
| Dr_willis | ssh remotebox | 20:39 |
| Dr_willis | get a shell.. there ya go. :) | 20:39 |
| Dr_willis | run vnc4server if you want, or mc, or do the file managing from the shell. | 20:39 |
| Dr_willis | You have to install the sshd server package, its not installed by default | 20:39 |
| Dr_willis | !find ssh | 20:39 |
| ubotu | Found: aolserver4-nssha1, autossh, clusterssh, crosshurd, dpsyco-ssh (and 28 others) | 20:39 |
| Dr_willis | !find sshd | 20:40 |
| ubotu | File sshd found in apparmor-profiles, gradm, logwatch, openssh-server | 20:40 |
| pdragon | it's that last one | 20:42 |
| pdragon | openssh-server | 20:42 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | openssh-server is installed | 20:43 |
| Dr_willis | Yep. I never can rember the name. :) | 20:43 |
| Dr_willis | install vnc4server | 20:43 |
| Dr_willis | then run it.. it will make a .vnc/xstartup file. Kill vnc4server with vncserver --kill:1 edit xstartup as you like.. rerun the server. connect with any client. :) | 20:44 |
| Dr_willis | for some ODD reason I think the default xstartup still tries to run 'twm' which is not instaled by default. | 20:44 |
| Dr_willis | doh.. its vncserver -kill:1 using 2 -- will makeit spawn yet another vnc session | 20:48 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok it said it created a startup script when I ran the set up. so to connect would I just type vncviewer media-center:1 | 20:50 |
| Dr_willis | Yep. | 20:53 |
| Dr_willis | You might want to tweak the xstartup script however. | 20:53 |
| blkorpheus | nice move to release alpha 3 ubuntu in time for kde4 releases | 20:53 |
| Dr_willis | kde4 is not running good for me under vnc. :) i gotta go to the basement and try it out soon | 20:53 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok I got an error unable to connect to host: No route to host (113) | 20:55 |
| Dr_willis | can you ping the machine? | 20:55 |
| Dr_willis | You may need to use its ip# not the host name.. Unless your hosts file is set up properly | 20:56 |
| Dr_willis | you also may want to check the vnc logs. Just in case it did try to run twm, which wasent there. | 20:56 |
| Dr_willis | Going to the Basement.. be back in a few. | 20:57 |
| Dr_willis_ | There we go. | 21:03 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok it helps to have the network cable plugged in all the way. I am getting a unable to connect to host: No route to host (113) I need to put in the password. Where do I do that? | 21:05 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok I am not sure what I did but it gave my a pop up password box. I think something was messed up. I am going to restart and see if that fixes. | 21:09 |
| Dr_willis_ | the vncviewer should pop up a dialog asking | 21:10 |
| Dr_willis_ | check your xstartup file and the vncserver logs also (in the .vnc dir) | 21:10 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok now it is not taking my password. what file is the passowrd saved in or how can I change it? | 21:20 |
| Dr_willis_ | vncpasswd | 21:22 |
| Dr_willis_ | the passwprd is stored in .vnc/passwd it seems | 21:23 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok I logged in again and I get a almost blank screen http://img104.imageshack.us/img104/4373/screenshotxe8.png | 21:25 |
| Dr_willis_ | Did you set up the xstartup to run somthing other then twm? Check the vncserver logs in .vnc? | 21:26 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok mythbuntu seems to have no program that can read a .log what program should I be using to veiw them? | 21:28 |
| Dr_willis_ | its a text file.. | 21:29 |
| Dr_willis_ | like 99% of all logs and config files. :) | 21:29 |
| Dr_willis_ | more whatever.log | 21:30 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | I have used .logs with ubuntu. | 21:30 |
| Dr_willis_ | check the xstartup file also. see what its running. | 21:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | I am still trying to figure out a program in mythbuntu that will open these. | 21:39 |
| Dr_willis_ | they are text files. use any text editor. or the more command. | 21:40 |
| Dr_willis_ | Install your fave editor if you want. | 21:41 |
| Dr_willis_ | or use the cat command from a terminal if you want. | 21:41 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok this might be a problem in the xstartup it has the entry xsetroot -solid grey | 21:46 |
| Dr_willis_ | look below that line and see what window manager its running. | 21:57 |
| Dr_willis_ | if its running twm and twm is not installed then you wont have a window manager, or muchof a desktop | 21:58 |
| Dr_willis_ | if it Is running twm. and you have twm.. well.. twm is so minimal.. its hard to get used to. | 21:58 |
| Dr_willis_ | xsetroot -solid grey is just setting a solid grey color wallpaper. | 22:00 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | hmm I wonder what it could be then. at the top of that file it says uncomment the following lines for a normal desktop I did that and I get a screen that is totally blank. | 22:02 |
| Dr_willis_ | my standard xstartup is like the following.. 3 lines total. | 22:03 |
| Dr_willis_ | xsetroot -solid grey & | 22:03 |
| Dr_willis_ | xterm & | 22:03 |
| Dr_willis_ | jwm | 22:03 |
| Dr_willis_ | i have installed jwm. and that is the widnow manager i am using for vnc. | 22:04 |
| Dr_willis_ | I dont know what exact lines are in your config file. | 22:04 |
| Dr_willis_ | i DONT uncomment the 2 lines they mention at the top. That makes the vncserver spawn your default desktop (i think) | 22:04 |
| Dr_willis_ | When you make changes to the xstartup file. Your eally should kill the currently running vncserver and restart it. just changing the file does not affect any running servers | 22:05 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | I killed it. I still have a blank screen. it is kind of a cross hatch look. could it be a color setting? | 22:11 |
| Dr_willis_ | thats what the xsetroot command removes. | 22:13 |
| Dr_willis_ | if you uncommented the first 2 lines.. the lines after those - i dont think EVER get read. | 22:13 |
| Dr_willis_ | # exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc - will reroute to xinitrc, anything past that line is ignored. | 22:13 |
| Dr_willis_ | and i got no idea if using xinitrc is a good idea or not. | 22:14 |
| Dr_willis_ | all xinitrc does is run --> . /etc/X11/Xsession | 22:14 |
| Dr_willis_ | From here.. uncommenting those lines.. makes nothing run. So i would say comment them back. and manually confuigure what you want ran. | 22:16 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok what do I need to do to manually configure it? | 22:19 |
| Dr_willis_ | Make it run the winow manager you want to run. | 22:19 |
| Dr_willis_ | like the example i gave above. | 22:19 |
| Dr_willis_ | sudo apt-get install jwm | 22:20 |
| Dr_willis_ | then set the last line to be 'exec jwm' or just 'jwm' instead of twm. | 22:20 |
| lime4x4 | what is the trick to connecting to a remote backend? I have mythbuntu running the frontend and backend i installed mythtv on my gutsy box used the address of the mythtv box and password but when i start the mythtv frontend on gutsy it won't connect to the mythbuntu box | 22:24 |
| Dr_willis_ | well i think for one. You beed to ahve the proper ip# in the mythtv-setup | 22:26 |
| lime4x4 | i did 192.168.1.10 | 22:27 |
| lime4x4 | when i start mythtv from a shell it's not connecting to the data base | 22:27 |
| Dr_willis_ | Im going from memory here.. so i may be wrojkg. but theres 2 places for the ip#. one is 127.0.0.1 i thoight. that needs to be change4d for the frontendsd to see it. | 22:27 |
| lime4x4 | QMYSQL3: Unable to connect | 22:28 |
| lime4x4 | Database error was: | 22:28 |
| lime4x4 | Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.1.10' (111) | 22:28 |
| Dr_willis_ | That sounds like your mysql password may be wrong. | 22:28 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok that worked. I am not a big fan of that though. Is there any way to let it use xfce? | 22:29 |
| Dr_willis_ | MythbuntuGuest79, instead of 'exec jwm' or whatever.. make it load whatever starts up xfce | 22:29 |
| MythbuntuGuest78 | hello | 22:29 |
| lime4x4 | well i did change it to match the one used on the mythtv backend server thru the mythtv frontend on the gutsy box | 22:29 |
| Dr_willis_ | which seems to be the startxfce4 command. :) | 22:30 |

| lime4x4 | do i have to forwrd any ports on the router? I don't think i have to cause it's all local traffic | 22:31 |
| Dr_willis_ | There may be some mysql settings to allow other machines to access it. | 22:32 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | Is there a standard command for xfce4? How do I figure that out? | 22:32 |
| Dr_willis_ | I suck at MySQL. | 22:32 |
| lime4x4 | yeah i checked that in the mcc control panel | 22:32 |
| Dr_willis_ | MythbuntuGuest78, ---------> which seems to be the startxfce4 command. :) | 22:32 |
| Dr_willis_ | MythbuntuGuest79, ---------> which seems to be the startxfce4 command. :) | 22:32 |

| === MythbuntuGuest78 is now known as Simminator | ||
| Dr_willis_ | The command to start the default xfce desktop is 'startxfce4' | 22:34 |
| Dr_willis_ | :) | 22:34 |
| Simminator | i have a couple of questions | 22:34 |
| Simminator | i downloaded the latest release of mythbuntu and am trying to run the install on a box i built | 22:35 |
| lime4x4 | i used sudo apt-get install mythtv on the gusty box | 22:35 |
| Simminator | the installer hits the point of realizing LIRC (i dont know what LIRC is) and says its not configured | 22:35 |
| Simminator | well i have the latest release of ubuntu installed on a different drive and it runs mythtv just fine | 22:37 |
| Simminator | so i know that the box is capable of running ubuntu and mythtv, but i wanted to see if i could get mythbuntu running | 22:37 |
| Dr_willis_ | I just normally intall Mythubuntu, then install whatever other parts of ubuntu i want. | 22:38 |
| Simminator | thats just my problem | 22:39 |
| Dr_willis_ | I think on this box i installed mythubuntu, then isntalled ubuntu-desktop. and kubuntu-desktop | 22:39 |
| Simminator | i cant get mythbuntu installed | 22:39 |
| Dr_willis_ | on the Frontend box. I just used mythubuntu, and followed its little wizard I think. | 22:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | ok I cahnged jwm to startxfce4 and It gives me terminal session with no window borders or anything. | 22:40 |
| Simminator | ok | 22:41 |
| Dr_willis_ | looks like startxfce4 tries to spawn a new X session.. odd for it to do things that way | 22:46 |
| Dr_willis_ | guess you could run xfwm4 & and xfce4-panel from the xstartup file | 22:48 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | so I should change startxfce4 to xfwm4 & and xfce4-panel ? | 22:50 |
| === MythbuntuGuest75 is now known as Xenocide | ||
| Xenocide | hey guys can anyone help me in setting up a remote wonder Ii remote | 22:52 |
| Dr_willis_ | MythbuntuGuest79, thats one way. you may want to run some other xfce related tools also. Be sure to use & after all but the last one, which should be starting the panel or window manager. | 22:53 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | what kind of tools? This is my first run with xfce4. I changed jwm to xfce4-panel and that almost worked. I had my applications bar up top but none of the programs would launch. adding xfwm4 to that made the caused tha app bar to not show up. | 22:57 |
| Dr_willis_ | the panel is one tool. the window maanger itself is another tool. I dont use xfce, so not sure what else should be ran | 23:06 |
| Dr_willis_ | it looke like the startxfce4 script eventually runs /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc You could just try running /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc from your xstartup | 23:09 |
| lime4x4 | do i have to something else to the remote backend? | 23:10 |
| lime4x4 | QMYSQL3: Unable to connect | 23:10 |
| lime4x4 | Database error was: | 23:10 |
| lime4x4 | Access denied for user 'mythtv'@'192.168.1.151' (using password: YES) | 23:10 |
| MythbuntuGuest79 | Thanks Dr willis I got it working. | 23:21 |
| Dr_willis_ | MythbuntuGuest79, the last part of the /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc , has about 4 commands that seems to be ran for a normal xfce desktop. | 23:21 |
| Dr_willis_ | You cant run the acript directly however. - i copied it to a differ file. and edited out all the cruft. | 23:22 |
| Dr_willis_ | xfce-mcs-manager & xfwm4 --daemon & xfdesktop & and xfce4-panel - seem togive a full Xfce desktop | 23:23 |
