sabhain | sorry if I'm in the wrong place .. but struggling with nvidia drivers for my mythbox | 03:20 |
---|---|---|
sabhain | had things running with the open source driver from nvidia.com .. but couldn't get xvmc to work with myth | 03:20 |
sabhain | so now i'm trying to get the restricted binaries to go .. but 7.10 isn't recognizing the card, and there4 not loading the module / driver? | 03:21 |
majoridiot | sabhain, still here? | 03:44 |
sabhain | back .. you still here majoridiot? | 04:17 |
sabhain | i'm able to see the nvidia identified within lspci .. so that's an improvment | 04:24 |
sabhain | and modprobe nvidia-new loads up .. | 04:24 |
sabhain | which allows me to boot to X .. and the restricted drivers manager says that the nvidia driver is in use and enabled | 04:25 |
sabhain | but i can't run nvidia-settings .. says i'm "not using an nvidia driver" ... | 04:26 |
sabhain | I know things aren't quite right .. gotta be close, but I'm migrting from mandriva .. and it's just different enought that I'm getting stuck | 04:26 |
sabhain | trying to make every effort to use the restricted drivers .. per some mythtv specific advice i've gotten | 04:44 |
sabhain | seems like the opensource driver is more problematic when it comes to good playback / xvmc | 04:44 |

tbonemadz | hello | 08:41 |
tbonemadz | I'm having a problem with MythTv locking up on any video being played. I'm somewhat a noob at linux but know how to get around. I upgraded to a large lcd tv and finally have my resolution fixed at 1920 x 1080 at 60hz. Image colors are fixed but my video locks up any time i try to play a video within myth. | 08:44 |
tbonemadz | This makes me thing its the engine it uses to show video because VLC video player works perfect | 08:44 |
KillerKiwi2005 | hi I created a custom menu file but the music entry just does nothing... ive double checked the syntax.. is there a special trick for plugins? | 10:32 |
KillerKiwi2005 | hmmm JUMP music play works.... | 10:55 |
reclusivemonkey | hello everyone | 12:23 |
Koffa | are the .nuv's that come out of transcoding viewable on eg. windows media player? | 12:24 |
reclusivemonkey | looks like channels.dat is poorly again (no surprise there); http://talk.radiotimes.com/thread.jspa?threadID=300000226 | 12:24 |
reclusivemonkey | Koffa: No, I don't believe WMP has native .nuv support | 12:25 |
Koffa | are there any instructions to get something else out from transcode?-) | 12:25 |
reclusivemonkey | Koffa: you can change the file format of recordings to mpeg I think; there should be something on the Wiki | 12:31 |
Koffa | first it records mpeg, but all transcoding-options I've tried produce these .nuv's | 12:34 |
Koffa | (and tablet-encode producess off-sync videos, but that's not mythtv-problem (: ) | 12:35 |
reclusivemonkey | Yeah I never had any luck myself getting anything other than NUV out... | 12:35 |
sebrock | how can I get to know which lirc package that is included in mythbuntu? | 15:17 |
sebrock | I need a cvs version because of the iMON IR/LCD | 15:17 |
laga | sebrock: apt-cache policy lirc | 15:17 |
sebrock | ok is the info anywhere on the web? dont have access to the frontend right now | 15:18 |
sebrock | Package: lirc (0.8.3~pre1-0ubuntu7) [universe] | 15:18 |
Koffa | damn autocommit | 15:19 |
sebrock | doesn not include the LCD driver... anyhow is it then possible to remove the lirc package from mythbuntu and install from cvs without having to remove all them other packages? | 15:21 |
sebrock | apt-get suggests removing basically all mythbuntu stuff | 15:21 |
laga | sebrock: create a proper .deb from the cvs source | 15:22 |
sebrock | is that the only way? | 15:23 |
sebrock | I suck at creating debs | 15:24 |
sebrock | especially proper ones :D | 15:24 |
laga | dunno.. maybe you can create a fake lirc deb.. or just install over your existing lirc isntall, but that'll make your system unsupportable | 15:25 |

mishehu | bah. | 15:51 |
* mishehu is happy, making progress on getting his mythbuntu frontend working again | 15:51 | |
mishehu | however, I do have an annoying problem still with sound | 15:54 |
mishehu | mythtv on my system (gigabyte ga-ma69gm-s2h, uses intel-hd module) plays back normal PCM over SPDIF without any problem. but DVD playback produces a pulsing sound isntead of the audio. Xine plays dvds fine and outputs a52 out the SPDIF no problem. I tried changing the settings for the alsa device and alsa spdif device to use, but when I change from default I get no sound at all | 15:57 |
mishehu | I just updated to mythtv 0.21 on gutsy 7.10 | 15:57 |
levander | Can you burn an ISO to DVD using mytharchive? Or, do most people use some other program? | 15:57 |
kenzu | hey | 15:59 |
mishehu | err I think gutsy is it's name, whatever, it's from 7.10 | 15:59 |
mishehu | the most recent stable | 15:59 |
kenzu | I need some help with my imon pad remote | 15:59 |
kenzu | I can get everything working on hardy, but the pad | 16:00 |
mishehu | heh, I'm having problems with my ati remote wonder on 7.10. | 16:01 |
mishehu | lirc is a bitch of a program sometimes. | 16:01 |
laga | mishehu: ati remote wonder RF? the first one? | 16:01 |
kenzu | I have found a page that say I should put a option line in/etc modprobe.d/options with "options lirc_imon pad2keys_active=1" but then It fail to load lirc_imon | 16:02 |
mishehu | laga: yeah, the original one. | 16:02 |
kenzu | do I have to patch lirc i hardy? | 16:02 |
mishehu | laga: I was even running irw on the lircd socket, and it wasn't showing any key presses | 16:02 |
mishehu | using the lirc_atiusb | 16:03 |
mishehu | kenzu: you can do "modinfo lirc_imon.ko" and it should show you the accepted parameters. | 16:03 |
laga | mishehu: it worked fine for me. i even provided the appriorite lircd.conf ;) | 16:04 |
mishehu | laga: that's the funny thing, it did provide the right lirc files and all. | 16:05 |
mishehu | I noticed that on the same machine I have a problem with USB mice as well. | 16:05 |
laga | ouch | 16:05 |
mishehu | something about kernel 2.6.22 | 16:05 |
laga | try a different usb port.. | 16:05 |
mishehu | laga: the ports on the machine are fine. my USB keyboard works fine. | 16:06 |
mishehu | and the mouse works fine on other machines (windows and slamd64 linux) | 16:06 |
kenzu | mishehu: were is lirc_imon.ko? | 16:06 |
mishehu | laga: you using kernel or userspace settings for your remote? | 16:07 |
mishehu | kenzu: actually if you do "modinfo lirc_imon" it should work | 16:07 |
mishehu | no need to enter the path | 16:07 |
laga | mishehu: i think i was using the userpsace stuff | 16:07 |
kenzu | mishehu: hmm and then pad2keys should be on the parm: line? | 16:08 |
laga | it was a bit tricky to figure out nice repeat/delay values for that remote.. | 16:08 |
laga | i'm not using that remote anymore, tho | 16:08 |
laga | too big and bulky and it couldn't control my TV | 16:08 |
mishehu | laga: hmm I might just replace the damn thing. I've had enough headache with it | 16:08 |
mishehu | laga: shame this machine is too small for my audigy 2zs, the remote that came with that worked perfectly and without much hassle at all. | 16:09 |
mishehu | laga: what do you use for a remote tehse days? | 16:09 |
mishehu | kenzu: well you can check to make sure you're sending it valid parameters.. | 16:10 |

mishehu | looks like they might sell it separate | 16:14 |
laga | i thought you already have that remote? maybe you can just use a separate receiver | 16:14 |
mishehu | no, no they don't. :-/ | 16:15 |
mishehu | laga: yeah, and there in lies the rub | 16:15 |
mishehu | trying to find a receiver that can read the codes and work with lirc. | 16:15 |

mishehu | they did similar shit when teh sblive was first released. | 16:27 |
mishehu | took it what, 2 or so years until they released anything for linux | 16:27 |
mishehu | and then it took another 6 months to year to get opensource so it could be merged into alsa | 16:27 |

zabadapp | dthacker-laptop: lspci maybe? | 18:17 |
dthacker-laptop | that worked. | 18:18 |
dthacker-laptop | tnx | 18:18 |
dthacker-laptop | I don't need TV-out enabled to just playback to the monitor or to another front end, right? | 18:19 |
zabadapp | correct | 18:19 |
dthacker-laptop | this is a "dry-run" install. Today's goal is to get an install that will record and playback to monitor. | 18:20 |
dthacker-laptop | wow, the manual has very little on standard installation. Guess I'll go back and choose advanced. | 18:36 |
zabadapp | what were you missing? | 18:37 |
dthacker-laptop | I'm on a screenshot for Host Address Backend Setup, and I don't see it in the manual. | 18:37 |
dthacker-laptop | I chose the wrong fork in the road :) | 18:38 |
dthacker-laptop | ah wait. | 18:38 |
dthacker-laptop | back on track | 18:39 |
zabadapp | don't know what you meant, but probably just localhost? btw: you did create a separate /home partition? much easier to do complete reinstalls and keep you good stuff then | 18:39 |
dthacker-laptop | nah, but I'll do that next time. | 18:40 |
dthacker-laptop | Will changing "Master Server IP Adress" actuall set the server address, because there was no where to do that on the install. I'm still running a DHCP address | 18:41 |
dthacker-laptop | my mouse only shows up in the "black" sections of the text box on the setup pages. How can I fix that? | 18:49 |
dthacker-laptop | well that's a showstopper. off to the forums.... | 18:57 |

MythbuntuGuest54 | i am in the process of running memtest at the moment | 19:22 |
dthacker-laptop | cd's and cd readers are fickle things. It's unlikely there is a bug causing your problems, you will have to change the variables one at a time until you get a successful outcome. | 19:22 |
MythbuntuGuest54 | cd check is ok and memtest is good so far. | 19:24 |
dthacker-laptop | MythbuntuGuest54: I know this is frustrating. It's bitten me several times. Do you have another CD reader you could try? | 19:25 |
MythbuntuGuest54 | that is my next step. i will install and try. thanks for the help. | 19:25 |

destructar | hi all... just tried changing up my video drivers for nvidia (had manually installed them but reinstalled via restricted drivers) | 23:51 |
destructar | now I'm stuck in "low graphics mode" because my screen and graphics card "could not be detected correctly" | 23:52 |
destructar | not sure what to do now... tried various tutorials nothing seems to work | 23:52 |
destructar | edited xorg.conf file and changed driver to "nvidia" but no luck... | 23:53 |
destructar | any ideas or should I tried #ubuntu? | 23:53 |
destructar | currently running ubuntu 7.10 | 23:53 |
majoridiot | sudo apt-get reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh | 23:54 |
majoridiot | should get you into a safe gfx mode after you reconfig. | 23:54 |
majoridiot | no | 23:54 |
majoridiot | sorry | 23:54 |
majoridiot | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh | 23:54 |
destructar | what will this do exactly? | 23:55 |
majoridiot | allow you to choose the x server settings | 23:55 |
destructar | ok cool | 23:55 |
* majoridiot has apt-get on the brain | 23:55 | |
majoridiot | sorry | 23:55 |
destructar | "package 'server-xorg-phigh' is not installed and no info is available" | 23:56 |
destructar | *xserver-xorg-phigh' | 23:57 |
Piffer | apt-get is a drug | 23:57 |
majoridiot | sorry again... | 23:58 |
majoridiot | totally botched that one front to back | 23:58 |
destructar | lol | 23:58 |
majoridiot | sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 23:58 |
levander | Can I use myth to burn ISO's to a blank DVD-R? | 23:58 |
* majoridiot slows down a little | 23:58 | |
destructar | so it autodetected nv instead of nvidia... any idea if that's correct? everything I read claims nvidia should be used | 23:59 |
