famiconGODDAMN DRIVERS01:26
famiconnothing seems to ever just work01:26
zoidfarbHey, so I just installed Mythbuntu, and I'm having trouble getting the IR remote for my PVR-150 to work. Does anyone know if there's something special I need to do?01:26
famiconzoidfarb hey there01:27
famiconyou mean the remote that came with the card?01:27
zoidfarbyes01:27
zoidfarbit's silver, with four colored buttons at the bottom01:28
zoidfarb(my understanding is that the PVR-150 ships with two different remotes)01:28
zoidfarbDuring the install process, it asked me about a remote, and I selected Hauppauge TV-Card01:28
famiconhttp://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/PVR150_Remote01:29
Dr_willisI belive on which package you get - the pvr150 either has a mce remote. or a hauppage remote. and theres several of them I belive.01:29
famiconThe pvr150 has been sold with 2 different types of remotes one grey and one silver so your lircd.conf will depend on which you have.01:29
zoidfarbYeah, I read that page. What I'm a little unclear on is how much of that has already been done by the Mythbuntu team01:29
zoidfarbbecause lirc seems to be installed and the daemon seems to be loading correctly01:30
famiconhah01:30
famiconwell01:30
famiconafaik everything you have is pretty much the same as an install from mythtv source01:30
famiconmythbuntu is for the most part just myttv with ubuntu slapped on it01:31
Dr_willisSo..is the silver one - like shiny silver? the other is a matt grey?  :)01:31
zoidfarbit's shiny silver01:32
Dr_willisIve only got one. Its  sort of shiny silver. :)01:32
zoidfarbthat's what mine is like01:32
Dr_williswith black on the back. 4 color buttons on the bottom.01:32
Dr_willisgreen power om top right. House/Go button on top left.01:32
zoidfarbmine looks exactly like this, as far as I can tell: http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/hauppauge/PVR-350.jpg01:33
zoidfarbyeah, it's silvery on the top and black on the botton01:33
zoidfarbit sounds like we have the same remote, did you get yours working?01:34
zoidfarbor not?01:37
zoidfarbwhere'd everyone go?01:43
famiconoh01:44
famiconim just cursing at this goddamn motherfucking piece of shit dvb card01:44
famicongetting ready to throw it out of the window01:44
zoidfarbset it on fire01:46
famiconi dunno01:46
famiconim trying not to01:46
zoidfarbso you think I should try to reinstall LIRC by compiling the latest CVS source?01:46
famiconcause it would be the third unit so far that i've smashed in complete rage01:46
famiconand at 500 dollars a piece01:47
famiconmy anger is getting rather expensive01:47
zoidfarbhey, so I'm having trouble getting a Hauppauge PVR-150 remote to work. I found this page: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/PVR150_Remote  but it's a year old. Does anyone have any suggestions?03:29
Aquahallicevenin' folks04:03
Aquahallicanyone else having problems with viewing the guide while watching Live TV and it hanging the box up hard?04:03
zoidfarbI'm not, but have you tried tinkering with the settings for the guide04:21
zoidfarbthere's different transparency levels that are easier on the CPU04:22

MilhousePunkRockHello everyone!13:42
MilhousePunkRockMythbuntu keeps on logging me out/restarting gdm13:42
MilhousePunkRockInstead of starting mythwelcome/mythfrontend13:42
MilhousePunkRockAny ideas?13:42
Davieymythwelcome :(13:43
* Daviey has never seriously used mythwelcome13:43
MilhousePunkRockDaviey: It did work until just now13:43
Davieywell what did you change :)13:43
MilhousePunkRockThe only thing I have done were the regular updates, nothing myth related in them though13:43
Davieyodd!13:47
Davieymight it be worth creating a new user, and trying that?13:47
MilhousePunkDaviey: Did you say anything in the last 4 minutes? I lost my connection13:49
DavieyMilhousePunkRock: yes i did :)13:50
Daviey13:47:24 < Daviey> odd!13:50
Daviey13:47:47 < Daviey> might it be worth creating a new user, and trying that?13:50
MilhousePunkRockDaviey: I think it's X-related, I tried starting a plain xfce session, that terminates too after a second or two13:50
Davieycheck the xorg log file?13:51
MilhousePunkRockFatal server error: Caught signal 11.  Server aborting13:51
Davieyhmm13:51
Davieyyou have a /tmp right?13:51
Daviey(with space)13:51
MilhousePunkRockprobably13:52
MilhousePunkRockDaviey: Yes I do.. The machine is still pretty fresh, HDD is not yet full13:52
Daviey:/13:52
MilhousePunkRockBacktrace: 0: /usr/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x81) [0x80c95d1] 1: [0xffffe420]13:53
MilhousePunkRockThat's from the log too13:53
Davieyeeek13:53
Davieysomething is broken, and i'm not sure of the fix13:54
Davieypersonally i would reinstall xorg first13:54
MilhousePunkRockDaviey: Just doing that... <3 ssh ;)13:55
Daviey(This doesn't seem to be a mythbuntu related problem, so you might get better support from Ubuntu support avenues)13:55
Davieysorry not being more help!13:55
MilhousePunkRockDaviey: No need to apologize, checking in #ubuntu now13:56
MilhousePunkRockDaviey: #ubuntu says I need to reinstall the nvidia-driver14:01
MilhousePunkRockWhich I am doing right now (need the 100.14.11 driver to prevent the pink screen bug)14:01
Davieyah14:02
MilhousePunkRockDaviey: Which I dirtily put on top of the nvidia-glx-new with nvidia's install script, other than complaining about an version inconsistency it's been fine so far14:03
MilhousePunkRockDaviey: Back to life!!!!!! Thanks for trying to help... And time to watch this weeks Prison Break now ;)14:05
MilhousePunkRockDaviey: So for the next poor guy whose session keeps on terminating, it's the nvidia-driver... Over and out, have a nice day!14:06
Tig|hi,  for my sins I have bought an Elonex Artisan case for my new little mythbox,  it is supposed to have a front display and a volume control dial on the front but obviously these seem to need some drivers,  google has not helped so far but is there a project (like lirc for remotes) for dealing with displays and things like that or has anyone heard of any other drivers that might point me in the right direction?  Thanks :)14:50
directhexTig|, lcdproc, i think it's called15:10
rigologood afternoon15:46
rigoloI'm trying to switch to the trunk weeklybuilds. I have done all the steps as described on the weeklybuilds webpage. When I do a apt-get update I get an error: Failed to fetch http://uk.weeklybuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu-trunk/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/Release  Unable to find expected entry  univers/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?) Any idea what goes wrong?15:48
rigoloIf i look at the direcotries where this file should be there is a Packages file but it is zero bytes15:49
Davieyrigolo: erm, you did do a "sudo apt-get update"15:52
Davieyhttp://uk.weeklybuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu-trunk/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/ <-- shows 10K here15:53
rigoloDaviey: I did ... the file in dists/gutsy is indeed 10K ... but it gives an error on the univers/binary-i386/Packages file15:55
rigolothat file is referenced from the dists/gutsy/Release file15:56
Davieyerm15:57
Davieysame on the US one.. i can re-prod it15:57
Davieywait 115:57

Davieyrigolo: try now15:58

Davieyi just re-sync'd the uk one15:59
Davieyrigolo: I just apt-get updated on two boxes - didn't get the error :/16:01

rigoloIt is working now ....16:01
Davieyhehe16:01
Davieydid you copy and paste the instructions?16:02
