| Prognatus | Hello, I have a question, which I have tried to find the answer for, and would be happy if someone knew the answer to or could guide me to where it's written: | 00:10 |
|---|---|---|
| Prognatus | Is the Happauge Win-TV-HVR-4000 supported by MythBuntu? | 00:10 |
| Prognatus | http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/pages/products/data_hvr4000.html | 00:12 |
| Prognatus | ...or MythTV? | 00:14 |
| benlake | I just upgraded to 8.04 from 7.10 and mythtvbackend fails to start with a symbol lookup error | 00:23 |
| benlake | I'm fully upgraded, not sure where to start troubleshooting (besides the tidbits google has fed me) | 00:23 |
| superm1 | benlake, look for any packages you manually installed (the local section in synaptic) | 00:27 |
| superm1 | and also any stray make install stuff | 00:27 |
| superm1 | or stuff in /usr/local | 00:27 |
| benlake | nuvexport is the only thing | 00:28 |
| superm1 | well you can try to ldd mythbackend | 00:29 |
| superm1 | to see where its linking to | 00:29 |
| benlake | symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libmythavcodec-0.21.so.0: | 00:31 |
| benlake | is what I get | 00:31 |
| benlake | when it fails to start | 00:31 |
| benlake | hmm when I ldd it it doesn't lis that lib | 00:32 |
| === _taz_ is now known as TazgodX | ||
| TazgodX | hmm, 8.04 is released | 00:35 |
| TazgodX | guess ill update | 00:36 |
| benlake | when you say the local section in Synaptic, are you speaking of everything in Local/free|main|restricted|multiverse ? | 00:36 |
| tgm4883_laptop | TazgodX, not only is it released | 00:37 |
| tgm4883_laptop | but you can digg it http://digg.com/linux_unix/Mythbuntu_8_04_now_available | 00:37 |
| TazgodX | lol | 00:38 |
| TazgodX | you alwyas make a digg | 00:38 |
| TazgodX | it won't surpase teh ubuntu digg release LOL | 00:38 |
| laga | still, digg it :) | 00:39 |
| TazgodX | already did | 00:39 |
| laga | good | 00:39 |
| benlake | superm1: my only thought is that there is something dangling around from the ppa.launchpad source, synaptic says I have nothing from that source. | 00:41 |
| benlake | when I upgraded the upgrade manager disabled the ppa.launchpad source ad apparently pulled all the myth stuff from the normal mirrors | 00:41 |
| TelnetManta | any NA DVBS users in here tonight? Need a comparison question.... | 00:43 |
| benlake | what exactly does it mean when dpkg --get-selection says something is "deinstall"? | 00:51 |
| destructar | hi all... i just upgraded to 8.04. everything seems to be fine thus far, except that I can't play music with mythmusic | 01:01 |
| destructar | i get the error "mixer unable to find control master 1" | 01:01 |
| destructar | (that's the command line error) | 01:01 |
| destructar | in the gui i get "aacDeoder: failed to open input" | 01:02 |
| destructar | any help would be awesome | 01:02 |
| destructar | it should be noted that i can hear audio while watching recordings. I am also unable to play music with rythmbox | 01:03 |
| destructar | so that error was for an m4a file i think... just tried mp3 and got "DecoderMAD: failed to open input" | 01:04 |
| dflake_ | Is anyone else having problems installing 8.04? | 01:05 |
| destructar | are you trying to install via cd? | 01:06 |
| dflake_ | yeah | 01:06 |
| dflake_ | it gets to about 80% then crashes | 01:06 |
| destructar | i wasn't able to ... kept getting "may not be debian" or something like that | 01:06 |
| destructar | i had to do it via internet which took forever to download for whatever reason | 01:06 |
| dflake_ | how did you get it installed? | 01:06 |
| laga | bug reports bug reports bug reports! | 01:06 |
| laga | if you encounter a problem, file a bug report and we'll get to it :) | 01:07 |
| destructar | install went smooth. I'm just having issues with mythmusic now | 01:07 |
| destructar | dflake_: i just followed the instructions and everything worked for the internet install | 01:07 |
| dflake_ | instructions from the website? pdf file? | 01:07 |

| benlake | s a reinstall of mythbackend going to drop and rebuild the mythconverge db and wipe all config files? | 02:00 |
| benlake | cause I'm at a loss with this symbol lookup error on mythbackend startup | 02:00 |
| Krusher00 | this is probably a noob mistake, but when I try to play an avi file in my new mythbuntu setup, it comes up with "loading.." and I can hear the sound of the file playing but no picture. Any ideas? | 02:30 |
| _CT_ | I've got a Mythbuntu 7.10 install with the Gnome Desktop installed. Can I use the Mythbuntu Alternate 8.04 CD to upgrade the install? | 02:36 |

| _CT_ | If I've got the Gnome Desktop installed on my Mythbuntu 7.10 do I have the normal Ubuntu Alt install CD? | 02:40 |
| a1fa | why dont you upgrade through console? | 02:57 |

| tgm4883_laptop | can anyone help me get an external monitor working with the open source radeon driver? | 03:15 |
| rhpot1991 | tgm4883_laptop: nope :P | 03:33 |
| rhpot1991 | also are you being serious? | 03:33 |
| tgm4883_laptop | rhpot1991, yes | 03:42 |
| rhpot1991 | tgm4883_laptop: dunno how much help it is, but back in the day I always did xinerama with my ati card (non open source drivers) | 03:49 |
| tgm4883_laptop | rhpot1991, unfortunatly my card isn't supported in the fglrx driver :( | 03:49 |
| === otwin__ is now known as otwin | ||
| rhpot1991 | xinerama used to work with the open source driver as well, but I think its depracated now and there are other ways of doing multiple monitors | 03:50 |
| tgm4883_laptop | well i really don't want to do multiple monitors, I want to turn this old laptop into a frontend | 03:51 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmm | 03:52 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I was finally able to get the opensource radeon wiki page to open | 03:54 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hopefully it will shed some light on this | 03:54 |
| mxpower | anyone got a tip on why my vnc session keeps refusing connections? | 04:04 |

| tgm4883_laptop | mxpower, http://www.mythbuntu.org/8.04/upgrade_notes | 04:06 |
| mxpower | ok, how do i access the mythbuntu control center? I went through the screen config menu, but nothing about vnc is there | 04:09 |

| pdragon | someone show'd be a trick to get a better one. Go to the Repositories section of Synaptic | 04:15 |
| pdragon | under the Ubuntu Software tab, in the Download From dropdown choose Other... | 04:15 |
| pdragon | a box pops up. Hit the Select Best Server button | 04:16 |
| pdragon | it'll go through and ping all the servers and you can pick the best one :) | 04:16 |
| pdragon | gave him some mirror in Canada and he was downloading at full speed | 04:17 |
| tgm4883_laptop | bollocks! | 04:17 |
| tgm4883_laptop | there are no better mirrors than archive.org | 04:17 |
| pdragon | haha | 04:17 |
| tgm4883_laptop | pdragon, actually this website has a search feature that allows you to find the mirror with the greatest connection speed, not just by ping time http://www.interenetisseriousbusiness.com | 04:19 |
| tgm4883_laptop | pdragon, still there? | 04:28 |
| pdragon | yeah | 04:29 |
| pdragon | cool | 04:29 |
| tgm4883_laptop | sorry about the link | 04:29 |
| pdragon | someone just told me about the synaptic tool earlier tonight | 04:29 |
| pdragon | said it worked great for him | 04:29 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yea it does | 04:29 |
| Krusher00 | tgm4883_laptop, why not download the one from www.epicwinrar.com ? | 04:29 |

| mr_legan | I thought there were some gui buttons on the bottom of the configuration screens, they seem to be scaled off the screen | 05:49 |
| emja | Can anyone point me to info about how to get the mythbuntu video manager to work behind a http proxy? | 06:21 |
| benlake | is there a package name for the control centre? | 06:35 |
| benlake | got it: mythbuntu-control-centre | 06:37 |
| emja | hmm... /etc/profile worked, but /etc/profile.d didn't | 07:27 |
| hugolp | hi, I cant find the configuration file for the backend | 07:32 |
| hugolp | can someone tell me where it is? | 07:32 |
| emja | dang. forgot 'export blah' | 07:37 |
| emja | hugolp: probably in /usr/share/mythtv/ | 07:39 |
| hugolp | emja: it was a file where I had to put -no-upnp for the mythbackend | 07:40 |
| hugolp | I have allredy checked that folder | 07:40 |
| emja | hugolp: so you're looking for how myth is started? | 07:40 |
| hugolp | emja: yes | 07:41 |
| hugolp | mythbackend freezes the server if I dont use that option | 07:41 |
| emja | depends on your distro, wm, etc | 07:41 |
| hugolp | ubuntu hardy | 07:42 |
| emja | which wm? | 07:42 |
| hugolp | what wm? | 07:42 |
| hugolp | whats wm? | 07:42 |
| emja | window manager. KDE, Gnome, fvwm, IceWM, etc | 07:43 |
| hugolp | gnome, but once I have the server configured I boot it without graphic mode | 07:45 |
| emja | hang on. you're talking about mythBACKend, right? then you'll want /etc/initd./mythbackend | 07:46 |
| emja | err... /etc/init.d/mythbackend | 07:46 |
| emja | sorry. wrong again. /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend :-} | 07:46 |
| hugolp | yes, but thats the executable file to restart/stop/etc the backend | 07:48 |
| hugolp | I am looking for the configuration file of the backend | 07:48 |
| hugolp | someone here pointed me to it when I upgraded to .21 in gutsy | 07:49 |
| hugolp | but I cant find it now | 07:51 |

| === MythbuntuGuest39 is now known as S|eepy | ||
| S|eepy | Morning al! | 09:54 |
| S|eepy | looking to switch over to mythbuntu but cant seem to find out if it supports my FloppyDTV DVB-S2 card? | 09:55 |
| S|eepy | Anyone any idea if it will work? | 09:56 |
| laga | S|eepy: have you checked the linuxtv wiki? | 09:57 |
| S|eepy | Yeah says unsupported - just hoped maybe it was outdated | 09:59 |
| S|eepy | Or someone had managed to get it working | 09:59 |
| S|eepy | Guess im stuck with WIndows :( | 10:00 |
| S|eepy | in windows it uses BDA drivers (generic i think?) so can mythbuntu not do the same? | 10:02 |
| laga | S|eepy: make sure to ask the manufacturer why they don't support linux | 10:02 |
| laga | S|eepy: linux is a completely different OS with a different architecture, driver API etc | 10:02 |
| laga | that won't work | 10:02 |
| S|eepy | i can see some old threads on forum and they released driver code as open source | 10:02 |
| S|eepy | but seems nobody took it up and developed any :( | 10:03 |
| laga | i find that hard to believe | 10:03 |
| laga | do you have an URL? | 10:03 |
| S|eepy | www.digital-everywhere.com is the m/d | 10:03 |
| S|eepy | let me find url for open source driver code | 10:03 |
| S|eepy | umm cant find it - will keep looking | 10:06 |
| S|eepy | ahh this maybe it! | 10:09 |
| S|eepy | http://www.mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2006-February/120746.html | 10:09 |
| laga | i'm amazed nobody has posted a follow-up | 10:16 |
| laga | ah, i've found the thread on the linuxTV ml | 10:18 |
| laga | http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.dvb/23472/focus=23478 | 10:18 |
| laga | doesn't look too promising | 10:18 |
| laga | there are several other postings wrt updating the driver, but nobody seemed to be interested | 10:20 |
| emja | what tool does myth use to download the movie poster (in video manager)? my system won't download the poster, but it happily retrieves all the metadata, including the postername. | 10:56 |
| laga | emja: imd.pl | 11:17 |
| laga | /usr/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts/imdb.pl AFAIK | 11:17 |
| emja | laga: thx, but that seems to only retrieve the poster name, not the poster itself | 11:17 |
| hugolp | can someone tell me where the back end configuration file is? | 11:23 |
| hugolp | I need to add a boot option for the back-end and I dont remember where the file is | 11:23 |
| emja | hugolp: look at the ARGS variable in /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend | 11:24 |
| laga | there's an EXTRA_ARGS varialble, that's better | 11:25 |
| hugolp | emja: ok, has this changed? in gutsy 0.21 was different | 11:25 |
| laga | and it's in /etc/default/mythtv-backend | 11:26 |
| hugolp | thats the one | 11:26 |
| hugolp | thanks | 11:26 |
| emja | ok, so I just learnt something new. ;-) | 11:26 |
| * emja goes back to his imdb poster download problem | 11:27 | |
| hugolp | laga: where can I found docs about the arguments? | 11:30 |

| dbmister | i currently cant scan for any dvb-t channels in mythtv setup, hardware is working ok as i can watch tv through mplayer | 11:36 |
| dbmister | it comes up as timeout error | 11:37 |
| dbmister | when scanning for channels | 11:37 |
| dbmister | ubotu: ok, sorry | 11:37 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ok, sorry - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 11:37 |
| hugolp | dbmister: dvb-t channel scan works here | 11:39 |

| rockhound | good day ... anyone else have mythfrontend die after scalling images after doing a full upgrade from 07.10 to 8.04? | 11:51 |
| dbmister | hugolp: i have a hauppuage hvr-1110? | 11:53 |
| dbmister | laga: backend is running | 11:53 |
| laga | dbmister: stop it | 11:59 |
| laga | rockhound: check the logs in /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log | 11:59 |
| rockhound | laga: will do once I have access to the system again ... ;-) thanks for the pointer | 12:00 |
| koudelka | hello, does mythbuntu use pulse audio? | 12:10 |
| fstxx | mythbuntu guided partiotion creates an ext3 partition - is taht good? | 13:09 |
| laga | depends. for your recordings store, i'd recommend xfs. | 13:09 |
| laga | we didn't get around to fixing this for this release, we'll try to add it in 8.10 :) | 13:10 |
| fstxx | laga: Yes, i will do that. Are there more things I should be aware of? | 13:11 |
| laga | no, i don't think so. if you've got the space to spare, you can make a 1-2GB partition for /var/lib/mysql/ to ensure it never gets full. of course, that's a bit overkill but it can be a good idea :) | 13:12 |
| fstxx | laga: if I want to have two filesystems, one root and one for recordings, music, and all other data, how large does the root need to be? | 13:13 |
| fstxx | laga: and where should the other parttition be mounted? | 13:13 |
| laga | good question. :) | 13:15 |
| laga | let's see if there is something in the manual | 13:15 |
| laga | no, there isn't. | 13:17 |
| laga | bad documentation monkeys. | 13:17 |
| fstxx | laga: I don't see anything at all about partioning in the manual. | 13:17 |
| laga | fstxx: 6-10GB should be enough for everything including /var/lib/mysql | 13:17 |
| laga | and the recordings directory should be mounted in.. let's see | 13:18 |
| laga | /var/lib/mythtv/ is a good call, but i'm verifying the plugin directories now | 13:18 |
| laga | fstxx: yeah /var/lib/mythtv/ contains all the recordings | 13:22 |
| laga | and plugin data | 13:22 |
| fstxx | laga: thanks | 13:22 |
| laga | i'd say with 10GB for / and the rest for /var/lib/mythtv/ you're on the safe side | 13:23 |
| laga | it's often a good idea to have a separate /home | 13:23 |
| laga | so you don't lose that when you reinstall. | 13:23 |
| laga | although you don't store many data in /home in a typical mythtv install, mostly channel icons and maybe xmltv config files | 13:23 |
| fstxx | I did 16G /, 8 G swap, 16 G spare, rest for xfs | 13:24 |
| fstxx | laga: you say when, not if, :-) | 13:24 |
| laga | 8G swap? that's massive :) | 13:24 |
| laga | fstxx: oops. :) | 13:25 |
| fstxx | laga: well I still follow the old rule, twice the max ram than machine can handle | 13:26 |
| laga | fstxx: my ubuntu boxes usually run really well. then i try to do something very weird and end up reinstalling, which is why /home is separate here :) | 13:28 |
| fstxx | laga: it's not a bad idea. | 13:31 |
| fstxx | laga: is the mythbuntu default to run without swap sapce at all? Do you? | 13:34 |
| laga | no | 13:34 |

| laga | psicobra: for tv, you need to fix your backend setup | 15:13 |
| laga | eg look around line 120 | 15:13 |
| laga | the error messages there | 15:13 |
| laga | for a master backend, *both* entries for IP addresses in mythtv-setup need to have the same value | 15:13 |
| psicobra | sow how i change that | 15:14 |
| laga | you can change that by running mythtv-setup | 15:15 |
| psicobra | ok what should i change it to/ | 15:17 |
| psicobra | my local i.p i.e 192.169.11.11? | 15:18 |
| laga | yeah | 15:18 |
| laga | or 127.0.0.1 | 15:18 |
| laga | if you don't have other computers on your network using mythtv | 15:18 |
| psicobra | this is the only pc on my network with myth TV installed | 15:19 |
| psicobra | and the i.p address is already set to 127.0.0.1 | 15:20 |
| psicobra | so whats next? | 15:21 |
| psicobra | laga, sorry to be a pain i am trying my best honest | 15:24 |
| laga | on that page | 15:24 |
| laga | there are two fields for ip addresses | 15:24 |
| laga | one for the address of that computer | 15:24 |
| psicobra | yes | 15:24 |
| laga | and one for the master backend | 15:24 |
| psicobra | yes | 15:25 |
| laga | both need to be set to the same value | 15:25 |
| psicobra | they are | 15:25 |
| psicobra | but ports are different | 15:25 |
| laga | don't change the ports from the default | 15:25 |
| psicobra | i haven't | 15:25 |
| laga | good | 15:26 |
| laga | then everything should work now, hopefully | 15:26 |
| psicobra | both are 127.0.0.1 | 15:26 |
| psicobra | they were already set that way | 15:26 |
| psicobra | no tried again any ways still not working | 15:27 |
| laga | did you restart the backend? | 15:27 |
| psicobra | i think it did it automatically | 15:27 |
| psicobra | how do i restart | 15:28 |
| laga | yes, it should restart the backend automagically | 15:28 |
| psicobra | ok then it's still not working | 15:29 |
| laga | still with the same error message? | 15:29 |
| psicobra | still doing the same thing | 15:29 |
| psicobra | click on tv goes black for a second and then quits to main menue | 15:29 |
| laga | new entries in the log file? | 15:30 |

| psicobra | that better | 15:39 |
| psicobra | /home/andy/livetv/', but this directory is not writeable | 15:42 |
| psicobra | would that be it laga | 15:42 |
| laga | yeah | 15:48 |
| laga | mythbackend run as the "mythtv" user | 15:48 |
| laga | so you need to set the permissions for that directory accordingly | 15:48 |
| psicobra | i just changed them manually and now i can watch tv perfectly | 15:50 |
| psicobra | but DVD still not working | 15:50 |
| laga | psicobra: your dvd is most likely "copy-protected". if your legislation doesn't prevent you from watching the dvds you've legally bought on your computer, you can install the dvdcss package in mythbuntu-control-centre | 15:51 |
| laga | but of course, many countries don't allow thaz | 15:51 |
| laga | that* | 15:51 |
| psicobra | i have already ticked the enable libdvdcss2 box still wont work | 15:58 |
| laga | that's odd then | 15:59 |
| psicobra | http://pastebin.com/m735e6e48 | 16:03 |
| psicobra | try that | 16:03 |
| a1fa | all of a sudden i got no recording schedules :( | 16:04 |
| laga | psicobra: no clue. try a different dvd | 16:05 |
| a1fa | nvm | 16:07 |
| a1fa | all recordings are back :( | 16:07 |
| a1fa | i dont get it | 16:07 |
| a1fa | hm | 16:13 |
| a1fa | maybe mythfilldatabase is not running automatically | 16:13 |
| a1fa | how can i check? | 16:13 |
| hugolp | anyone has found a solution for the Nova-T-500 and Hardy? | 16:21 |
| psicobra | laga, thanks for all your help i sorted it | 16:34 |
| psicobra | please don't ask what the problem was with the DVd | 16:34 |
| laga | psicobra: okay. | 16:39 |
| laga | what was the problem? :) | 16:39 |
| psicobra | i didn't have a dvd disk in the drive | 16:39 |
| psicobra | :( | 16:39 |
| laga | yes, that'd explain it :) | 16:39 |
| psicobra | i did have 1 but then i swapped it to install my wifi drivers and forgot | 16:39 |
| hugolp | so I am guessing there is no solution for the Nova-T-500 in Hardy? | 17:02 |

| mxpower | :) | 20:15 |
| mxpower | heya | 20:15 |
| olov | i recently upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04 and now I get the following error trying to start mythfrontend: /usr/bin/mythfrontend.real: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libmythavcodec-0.21.so.0: undefined symbol: faacDecOpen :( | 20:15 |
| mxpower | not many awake right now olov, and im a newby :( | 20:16 |
| olov | i see, it is evening here about 9pm... | 20:18 |
| laga | olov: that's a known issue, kind of. | 20:28 |
| laga | olov: although i'm not sure what's causing it | 20:29 |
| olov | laga: is there anything i can do, besides reinstalling? | 20:31 |
| laga | olov: try reinstalling libmyth-0.21-0 and mythtv-frontend, eg sudo aptitude reinstall <package> | 20:34 |
| laga | olov: i assume you were using the weekly builds repository before upgrading? | 20:34 |
| olov | laga: E: I wasn't able to locate file for the libmyth-0.21-0 package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package | 20:44 |
| laga | olov: what does apt-cache policy libmyth-0.21-0 say? | 20:45 |
| olov | libmyth-0.21-0: | 20:48 |
| olov | Installed: 0.21.0+fixes17120-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu2 | 20:48 |

| laga | hum | 20:49 |
| laga | i'll have to try to verify that in a VM | 20:49 |
| laga | olov: you can folow this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=765725 | 20:50 |
| laga | olov: in the mean time | 20:50 |
| laga | olov: can you try downgrading mythtv? | 20:50 |
| laga | olov: sudo aptitude install mythtv-common=0.21.0+fixes16838-0ubuntu3 mythtv-frontend=0.21.0+fixes16838-0ubuntu3 libmyth-0.21-0=0.21.0+fixes16838-0ubuntu3 | 20:51 |
| laga | etc | 20:51 |
| laga | that ought to work | 20:51 |
| olov | ok, i will try... | 20:51 |
| Prognatus | Anybody know if the TV chip on Happauge Win-TV-PVR-4000 is the same as on Win-TV-PVR-350? | 20:56 |
| olov | laga: downgrading helped... a lot... :) i can now start mythtv, both front and backend... | 20:57 |
| laga | olov: great | 20:57 |
| olov | laga: thank you !!! | 20:58 |
| laga | olov: if you're registered in the forums, maybe you can post your workaround | 20:59 |
| laga | olov: but you were using the weekly builds, correct? | 21:00 |
| olov | laga: not sure, can I check? | 21:01 |
| laga | olov: try looking in /etc/apt/sources.list | 21:01 |
| olov | laga: what in the list am I looking for? keywords? | 21:02 |
| laga | olov: maybe you can just pastebin the whole thing, there are some mirrors for it | 21:03 |
| olov | I seem to have: hardy main, hardy-updates, hardy-security, hardy-backports, hardy-proposed (and src for all of them) all from se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu | 21:05 |
| Prognatus | Is anyone here using Happauge 1300? It's listed on this page, but I wonder if there are any problems with it? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/Install/Gutsy/Tuners | 21:05 |
| laga | olov: nothing else? | 21:05 |
| laga | olov: maybe something in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ? | 21:06 |
| olov | laga: nothing more in /etc/apt/sources.list, I'll take a look in the next one.. | 21:06 |
| LeeSharp | Anyone got a minute to help a Myth newbie? | 21:09 |
| olov | laga: in medibuntu.list.save: deb-src http://packages.medibuntu.org/ hardy free non-free and in medibuntu.list.distUpgrade: deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ feisty free non-free thats it... | 21:09 |
| olov | laga: what would weekly builds look like? | 21:10 |
| abarbaccia-lapto | LeeSharp: what are you trying to do | 21:10 |
| abarbaccia-lapto | LeeSharp: just ask the quesiton | 21:10 |
| laga | olov: mine looks like "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/ubuntu hardy main | 21:11 |
| laga | " | 21:11 |
| laga | olov: but you must have been using the weekly builds for gutsy, then you upgraded and that caused the problem i think.. | 21:11 |
| olov | laga: am I likely to run into this problem again? | 21:12 |
| laga | olov: i don't think so. does it ask you to upgrade mythtv now if you run whatever you usually to update your system? | 21:13 |
| olov | laga: no | 21:14 |
| laga | olov: do you have any other files which look like a sources.list in /etc/apt/? maybe with a "old" suffix or something. | 21:14 |
| laga | olov: okay, then you should be fine | 21:14 |
| LeeSharp | I just installed a new front/back from the real hardy live cd. I had to manually specify my monitor and now when I go to the desktop, my font is too small. (Like 2) Anyone seen this? I am a Gnome users, and don't know xfe well. | 21:15 |
| olov | laga: i do have this line in sources.list.distUpgrade: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/ubuntu gutsy main restricted universe multiverse and I have the same but marked out ( # ) in sources.list etc.. | 21:20 |
| laga | olov: that'd explain a few things. how annoying.. :/ | 21:21 |
| olov | laga: I think I might have turned something on to get a mythtv upgrade a few months back, possibly this? thanx again for helping me solve my mess :) | 21:22 |
| laga | olov: yeah. | 21:23 |
| laga | olov: it's not exactly your fault, it's just an annoying upgrade probkem | 21:23 |
| LeeSharp | Any hint on my small font problem, or should it try an reinstall? | 21:24 |
| laga | LeeSharp: what's the DPI of your monitor? check with 'xdpyinfo' in a terminal | 21:27 |
| LeeSharp | It is an old 24 inch dell. I set it as 1024x768 as the max res, and the user is at 1024x768. | 21:29 |
| laga | LeeSharp: yes, but what's the DPI setting? | 21:33 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | hi | 22:48 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | kommt hier jmd aus deutschland oder should i talk in english? | 22:49 |
| laga | english is preferred | 22:49 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | k | 22:50 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | I tired to make my Happauge nova s plus run under mythbuntu 8.04 | 22:50 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | the card is show in the mythbuntu setup as analog V4l-tv-karte | 22:51 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | but it didn#t find a channel or even a signal :( | 22:51 |
| laga | because you need to set it up as a DTV 3.x card | 22:52 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | k, device number is set to 0 , "signalüberschreitung" 60000 ms and time"überschreitung" is set to 62500 | 22:55 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | have i configure somethng else? | 22:55 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | which frequency (khz) need I to use? | 22:58 |
| laga | 23:56 < Falballa`> laga: 'astra' could be (#1) scanfrequenzen fuer ASTRA19.2?E - 12551500 (frequency), vertikal (polarity), 22000000 (symbol rate), qpsk (modulation), or (#2) <http://www1.digitalfernsehen.de/frequenzen/astra1.html>, or (#3) | 23:00 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | hmm, where are no errors, but die pc also don't search something :( | 23:03 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | videosource is sat, or? | 23:04 |
| laga | depends how you called it ;) | 23:05 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | I see | 23:05 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | but it didn't work :( | 23:08 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | and when is try to scan all transponders, where are a error at the transpoder frequency | 23:09 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | the card show me also that there's no signal input, but the sat-calbe is plugged in and my test-reciever shows me the channels | 23:15 |
| laga | try looking at the backend logs or try a different tool to check if your tv card works, like 'scan' from the dvb-utils package | 23:16 |
| SgtPepper | anyone know of some reference on Mythbuntu setup on a RAID 5? I know I need to setup RAID1 for boot but cant seem to make it work. | 23:19 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | how can i use scan? what have i to type in the terminal? | 23:20 |
| MythbuntuGuest14 | lspci shows me that the card is installed | 23:24 |
