[00:01] <equim--> hey.. is this a reasonable place to get some newbie help?  I've just bought a ready built mythbuntu box but am a bit stumped as to what to do
[00:18] <Thorney> Hello - I am struggling, no failing, to get MythTV going on Ubuntu 8.04 AMD64. Infact I seem to have gone backwards by doing what worked on an older version of ubuntu. (same TV card different PC tho) Can anyone help me please?
[00:24] <Thorney> hello?
[00:49] <abarbaccia> ﻿when watching HDTV my channel guide usually freezes up --- anybody else experience this?
[00:56] <tgm4883> equim--, which box?
[00:57] <tgm4883> or from where?
[01:00] <equim--> I'm getting there now :)
[01:00] <equim--> it's the camulus desktop from efficientpc.co.uk
[01:04] <tgm4883> ok, what are you wanting to do
[01:06] <equim--> I started it up, set my username/pass etc, then after logging in I just got a black screen with a mouse cursor... didn't have a clue what to do
[01:06] <equim--> after a couple of reboots I got an interface tho
[01:07] <tgm4883> interesting
[01:07] <equim--> and have actually watched some tv! woohoo :)
[01:08] <tgm4883> k
[01:08] <equim--> I think it might be a FAQ "Sometimes this occurs due to the default Theme Painter (QT). Not all video cards will properly render the fonts and images in the theme with QT"
[01:09] <tgm4883> have you tried the jabber or MSN to efficient pc?
[01:10] <equim--> haven't yet, no ... will prolly try if it proves to be a problem
[01:10] <equim--> note I'm completely new to myth tv and still very new to linux in general.... it's gonna be an experience I guess :)
[01:21] <alexvd_> tgm4883: i have to run 7.10 and i have an irman so i need to upgrade the version to 0.8.3 do you know a walkthrough on how to do that.  I download it but i dont know where to unzip
[01:36] <tgm4883_laptop> alexvd_, you have to run 0.8.3 of what?
[01:36] <alexvd_> lirc
[01:37] <alexvd_> 0.8.2 is busted for irman
[01:37] <tgm4883_laptop> did you get a .deb of it?
[01:37] <alexvd_> thats just it
[01:37] <alexvd_> i dont know where to find a deb
[01:38] <tgm4883_laptop> what version is in hardy?
[01:38] <alexvd_> i think that is 0.8.3
[01:38] <tgm4883_laptop> sec
[01:38] <alexvd_> like i said i am not yet ready to upgrade to the newest ubuntu. so i need to run the 7.10 and just update lirc from 0.8.2 to 0.8.3
[01:40] <alexvd_> a .bz2 file is archive i dont think that is a deb right?
[01:40] <tgm4883_laptop> hardy has 0.8.3~pre1-0ubuntu7
[01:40] <tgm4883_laptop> you could try installing that if you like
[01:40] <tgm4883_laptop> no, .bz2 is not a .deb file
[01:40] <tgm4883_laptop> http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/lirc
[01:41] <tgm4883_laptop> otherwise, you will probably have to compile it
[01:58] <alexvd_> yeah i saw that
[02:19] <wilberfan> anybody solve the "my-volume-always-resets-to-69%-for-each-recording" problem??
[02:19] <wilberfan> :-\
[02:42]  * wilberfan resets his volume again
[03:43] <MythologicalTV> Seeking some help on PVR350 and MythTV - remote is having some funniness and I'm trying to get help tracking down the lack of allignment
[03:46] <MythologicalTV> hello?
[03:48] <rhpot1991> you can use irw to see which buttons do what, then modify files in ~/.lirc accordingly
[03:48] <MythologicalTV> that's what I am pretty sure i've done, but i'm not getting consistent results... let me take a look at the /home/mythtv/.lirc
[03:49] <rhpot1991> which version of mythtv?
[03:49] <rhpot1991> or mythbuntu for that case
[03:50] <MythologicalTV> 8.04 ubuntu / MythTV 0.21 (install through apt)
[03:50] <rhpot1991> ok good, that should have a .lirc folder in the user's home dir who runs the frontend
[03:50] <rhpot1991> different files in there for different applications
[03:50] <MythologicalTV> I'm assuming i should be modifying a ~/.mythtv/lircrc
[03:51] <rhpot1991> no
[03:51] <rhpot1991> there should be a ~/.lirc
[03:51] <rhpot1991> with a mythtv file in there
[03:51] <MythologicalTV> ok, there's no .lirc file, there's a .mythtv directory, which contains lircrc
[03:52] <rhpot1991> no .lirc is a directory
[03:52] <MythologicalTV> yeah, no directory
[03:53] <MythologicalTV> i'm wondering if those are the substitute files/directory
[03:53] <rhpot1991> do dpkg -l mythbuntu-lirc-generator |grep ^ii
[03:53] <MythologicalTV> as root or mythtv
[03:53] <rhpot1991> also are you logged in as the user who runs the frontend?
[03:53] <rhpot1991> doesn't matter
[03:54] <MythologicalTV> i usually log in as a different user - but i have a myththbutu initiated setup
[03:54] <MythologicalTV> so myth runs as mythtv
[03:54] <MythologicalTV> no mythbutu-lirc-generator
[03:54] <rhpot1991> ok so check /home/mythtv/.lirc
[03:55] <MythologicalTV> yeah, no directory .lirc, only thing related is /home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc
[03:58] <MythologicalTV> there is a full config there in lircrc
[04:01] <rhpot1991> work with that then, I wonder why you don't have the directory
[04:02] <MythologicalTV> did you build from source, or upgrade from 7.10 ?
[04:03] <crazy_bus> where exactly is the setting that makes myth backend load up everytime the computer is turned on.  As I want to turn it off
[04:03] <MythologicalTV> now my buttons are registering like "Pause Hauppauge_350"
[04:04] <MythologicalTV> with the Hauppauge_350 ending, I shouldn't have to include that portion right?
[04:05] <rhpot1991> !pastebin
[04:05] <rhpot1991> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11783/
[04:05] <rhpot1991> thats what they should look like
[04:06] <MythologicalTV> I don't have any remote directives in my lircrc
[04:08] <rhpot1991> I think you can ignore that
[04:08] <MythologicalTV> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/11785/
[04:09] <rhpot1991> did you set this up with MCC?
[04:09] <MythologicalTV> mcc? sorry, not familiar with that one
[04:09] <rhpot1991> mythbuntu control centre
[04:09] <MythologicalTV> don't think so
[04:09] <rhpot1991> did it yourself then?
[04:10] <MythologicalTV> most of it
[04:10] <MythologicalTV> except for apt doing setup
[04:10] <rhpot1991> well you can continue doing that if you want
[04:10] <rhpot1991> but its a lot easier if you install mythbuntu-control-centre and use that
[04:10] <MythologicalTV> would using mcc be easier in your opininon?
[04:10] <MythologicalTV> hmm
[04:10] <rhpot1991> it will do everything for you
[04:10] <MythologicalTV> another package ?
[04:10] <rhpot1991> well I'd recommend using it to setup as much as you can
[04:11] <rhpot1991> maybe backup your lirc files you have been making so you can have them
[04:11] <MythologicalTV> lol, well, its partially setup
[04:12] <MythologicalTV> hey, at least a few more buttons are workin!
[04:12] <MythologicalTV> lol
[04:12] <MythologicalTV> so many buttons to configure
[04:12] <MythologicalTV> volume keys aren't doing right by me
[04:13] <MythologicalTV> and the Stop button is playing ClosedCaptioning for me =) w00t
[04:13] <MythologicalTV> maybe i'll try the control center
[04:13] <MythologicalTV> guess i'm logging in as my user, and transfering the config... lets see if this works
[04:13] <MythologicalTV> thx for pointing me
[04:17] <MythologicalTV> doesn't look like its going to help much specifically on my remote
[04:17] <MythologicalTV> its using the same configurations I think
[04:19] <MythologicalTV> do you know how to gain access to the second tuner for recording on the PVR350?
[04:21] <rhpot1991> it only has one tuner
[04:21] <rhpot1991> the 500 has 2
[04:21] <MythologicalTV> ha, knew i did something wrong in hardware land =)
[04:21] <MythologicalTV> i'll live
[04:23] <MythologicalTV> yeah, button configs are no different
[04:23] <MythologicalTV> looks like its going to take hacking manually
[04:24] <rhpot1991> the 350 can output as well
[04:24] <rhpot1991> but only has one input
[04:25] <MythologicalTV> it outputs through the svideo connector correct?
[04:33] <MythologicalTV> what's the mythtv button for buttons like TV, Videos, Music, Pictures, and Radio?
[05:09] <MythologicalTV> what's the mythtv button for buttons like TV, Videos, Music, Pictures, and Radio?
[05:16] <dispadertest> Anybody up for (what's probably another) PVR-150 blaster question?
[09:38] <Balachmar> Hi, I just installed mythbuntu 8.04 and restored my database. Is it normal that my tunercards are not detected yet?
[15:12] <sabhain> anyone get lots of "1008-0" channel adjustments when QAM scanning?  I have HDHR.
[15:41] <sardiskan> DVD's will not play in my mythbuntu box?
[15:41] <sardiskan> anyone know why?
[15:43] <sabhain> sardiskan, have you enabled proprietary codecs in mythbuntu-control-centre?
[15:45] <sabhain> and are you able to play dvd's using MPlayer or Xine outside of the mythfront-end?
[15:51] <sardiskan> hmm
[15:51] <sardiskan> probably not
[15:52] <sardiskan> let me check that
[15:52] <sardiskan> ok, enabling now
[15:53] <sardiskan> jeepers
[15:53]  * sardiskan = dumb
[16:18] <sardiskan> ok, so now it plays...but the DVD menu is VERY VERY slow
[16:18] <sardiskan> like it will play a little bit of the motion, then just stop
[16:18] <sardiskan> then it will play some more...then just stop
[16:21] <sardiskan> I can hear the 20th century fox theme...but the video isn't showing up.
[16:21] <sardiskan> WTH?
[16:21] <sabhain> what's your hardware like?
[16:22] <ddgoose> close your frontend and in a terminal type "vxinfo".. does it list an adapter or "no adapter found" ?
[16:22] <ddgoose> er
[16:22] <ddgoose> xvinfo
[16:22] <sardiskan> hang non
[16:22] <sardiskan> on
[16:23] <sardiskan> the hardware is the following:
[16:23] <sardiskan> intel P4 3ghz processor, 2G memory, 250G SATA HDD
[16:23] <sardiskan> on board audio
[16:23] <sardiskan> speaking of which...the audio is choppy
[16:24] <sardiskan> I'm playing a DVD and I can't see the video at all...but I can hear the audio...which is choppy
[16:24] <sabhain> what graphics card?
[16:24] <sardiskan> hmm
[16:24] <laga> do normal mpeg2 files work? dvd support has always been a bit flaky
[16:24] <sardiskan> crap
[16:25] <sardiskan> I don't know if mpeg2 files work...I haven't tried one
[16:25] <cmug> is there a way to install with only s-video active?
[16:25] <sardiskan> hang on
[16:25] <sardiskan> I don't know
[16:26] <sardiskan> I'm also not sure about my video card
[16:26] <sardiskan> it's an ATI for sure
[16:26] <sardiskan> but it came in a dell so I don't know exactly what it is
[16:28] <sardiskan> I'll try to rip the DVD and play it back to see if it works better
[16:28] <ddgoose> I had that issue this morning with a box with ati video and fglrx, had to add options in xorg.conf to get xv working properly
[16:28] <ddgoose> are you using the restricted driver?
[16:29] <sardiskan> ddgoose...I"ll try your xvinfo cmd in a moment
[16:29] <sardiskan> does the frontend HAVE to be shutdown?
[16:29] <ddgoose> you could alt tab if you have a terminal open already
[16:30] <sardiskan> I'll do that
[16:30] <ddgoose> laga: thanks for the help yesterday, it worked out perfect
[16:31] <sabhain> ATI = ugly
[16:31] <sardiskan> it says "unable to open display"
[16:31] <sardiskan> could that be becuase the frontend is running?
[16:32] <sardiskan> yeah...ATI doesn't play nicely with linux like nVidia does
[16:32] <sardiskan> but it was a free card...I didn't want to have to replace it
[16:32] <ddgoose> yeah close frontend and try again, just to be sure
[16:35] <sardiskan> ok
[16:35] <sardiskan> almost done with the rip...I'll do it after that
[16:36] <sardiskan> how do you close the frontend anyway?
[16:36] <ddgoose> hit "esc" until it asks if you want to exit
[16:37] <sardiskan> oh that's right
[16:37] <sardiskan> d'oh
[16:37] <sardiskan> 2 minutes
[16:41] <ddgoose> brb
[16:47] <sardiskan> I have "no adapters present"
[16:47] <sardiskan> ddgoose..I am using the restricted driver...because my TV only has S-video in
[16:56] <ddgoose> you need to add options to your xorg.conf
[16:57] <sardiskan> which options?
[16:57] <ddgoose> lemme post on mythbuntu forum and I will link ya one sec
[16:59] <sardiskan> thx
[16:59] <ddgoose> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=792971
[17:00] <sardiskan> cool
[17:00] <sardiskan> where is the xorg.conf file on mythbuntu?
[17:00] <ddgoose> -- > /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:00] <sardiskan> got it
[17:02] <ddgoose> add them after the commented out options before the "Identifier" portion
[17:03] <ddgoose> you need to reboot or go to console and do "/etc/init.d/gdm restart" to make it active
[17:06] <ddgoose> brb smoking a brisket.. have to add chips :P

[17:07] <MythbuntuGuest08> hello
[17:07] <sardiskan> thx ddgoose...I'm trying those settings now
[17:08] <MythbuntuGuest08> is there someone who can help me? *g*
[17:08] <sardiskan> maybe
[17:08] <MythbuntuGuest08> ok, i m trying to get mythtv running
[17:09] <MythbuntuGuest08> first i tried it on a clean ubuntu 8.04
[17:09] <MythbuntuGuest08> and now im trying it on mythbuntu
[17:09] <MythbuntuGuest08> but i have absolutely no idea what to do... well im new in the "linux business"
[17:09] <MythbuntuGuest08> well my problem
[17:10] <sardiskan> OMG ddgoose...that was TOTALLY the problem...works GREAT now...even the audio isn't choppy
[17:10] <MythbuntuGuest08> when i start mythtv i get a error message that there is no upnp available
[17:11] <MythbuntuGuest08> after that i have to type hostname, databasename, user and password (i didnt fill out anything before)
[17:11] <MythbuntuGuest08> after pressing next i get 2 options
[17:11] <MythbuntuGuest08> which i do not mark
[17:12] <MythbuntuGuest08> and after that i get the message "cannot login to database"
[17:12] <MythbuntuGuest08> i think it has to do something with the sql stuff, but i have no idea what
[17:12] <sardiskan> ok, mythbuntu automates all of the install...you shouldn't have to type in anything different to setup the backend/frontend
[17:13] <ddgoose> back
[17:13] <MythbuntuGuest08> well, i didn't type anything, but i am always getting that "no database" error
[17:14] <ddgoose> sardiskan: no problem, glad I could help
[17:16] <ddgoose> MythbuntuGuest08: was your second install a clean install? or an overlay on the previous 8.04?
[17:17] <sardiskan> what exactly was the problem?
[17:18] <sardiskan> what was causing the video to not work AND the audio to be choppy and scratchy
[17:18] <ddgoose> sardiskan: no xv extension
[17:18] <ddgoose> so it was using x11 overlay
[17:18] <sardiskan> what is "xv"
[17:19] <sardiskan> do I still need the proprietary video drivers since I'm using xv now?
[17:19] <MythbuntuGuest08> the second one is a "live boot"
[17:19] <MythbuntuGuest08> nothing installed jet, just running it from cd
[17:21] <ddgoose> sardiskan: xv is the X Video overlay, it's what allows you to take advantage of your video cards accelerated overlay subsystem
[17:22] <ddgoose> MythbuntuGuest08: not sure about the live cd , you may want to install and try it that way. someone else may have a better opinion/answer
[17:22] <sardiskan> cool
[17:22] <sardiskan> you're good
[17:22] <sardiskan> you're real good
[17:24] <MythbuntuGuest08> ok, i'll try that... and after install - do i have to type something in "master backend information"? the fields of password and server are empty right now
[17:24] <ddgoose> I think its filled on the actual install but I can't recall.
[17:25] <ddgoose> been a few days since I ran the installer
[17:25] <MythbuntuGuest08> ok, i give it a try
[17:25] <MythbuntuGuest08> thanks for the help
[17:25] <ddgoose> sardiskan: yeah you want to keep using the restricted driver.
[17:25] <sardiskan> yes...the DB is filled on install...but you have to tell it to run the mythdbfiller....it comes up
[17:26] <sardiskan> thx ddgooes
[17:26] <sardiskan> er
[17:26] <sardiskan> ddgoose
[17:26] <ddgoose> no problem, your welcome
[17:27] <ddgoose> laga you around?
[17:28] <laga> yes
[17:28] <ddgoose> I noticed in Baz that "/debian/Readme.debian (revision 78)" has the stuff from the wiki, do you have a new commit coming?
[17:29] <laga> no
[17:29] <laga> i finally need to get that SRU to happen.
[17:29] <laga> and update the .pdf which has all information now
[17:31] <ddgoose> is the .pdf live somewhere?
[17:31] <laga> the bzr tree or the pdf itself?
[17:32] <ddgoose> just the pdf, thought I would take a look
[17:32] <laga> www.mythbuntu.org :) it's the documentation
[17:32] <laga> it's not completely up to date.. we dont have a documentation team unfortunately, so everyone contributes what they can squeeze in between feature freeze and release ;)
[17:35] <ddgoose> how can I get involved with helping on documentation?
[17:37] <laga> ddgoose: you can get a bzr checkout of the mythbuntu-documentation branch, i guess you know where to find it :) see the README for a list of packages you'll need. the documentation is split into smaller .tex files which you can edit.
[17:37] <laga> if you'd like to contribute to the diskless documentation, it'd be a good idea to make me commit my changes first ;)
[17:37] <ddgoose> hehe
[17:40] <laga> is there anything you're interested in? some parts are more lacking than others
[17:52] <ddgoose> eyes on the whole thing, but mainly diskless currently
[18:04] <RockHound> hi everyone ... is there a way to tell mythtv to output AC3 before MP2 audio streams by default?
[18:14] <ddgoose> laga: I am open to working on whatever there is a need for. so if you have suggestions of where to start that would be good.
[18:21] <ddgoose> laga where is the README with the package list?
[18:25] <ddgoose> nevermind I found it
[19:01] <sardiskan> ok, here is a new question. I ripped a DVD to an ISO file...but now I can't see the file to play it within mythtv frontend
[19:01] <sardiskan> do I have to import it or something
[19:03] <sardiskan> keeps saying "No files found" within the "Media Library" "Watch Videos" section.
[19:06] <sardiskan> but I can browse to the directory they are suppose to be /var/lib/mythtv/videos/ and the file is there
[19:14] <cosmic_> hi @ all
[19:23] <sabhain> sardiskan .. you need to go an edit the video library .. I think it's under settings / manage videos or something like that .. I do beleive you need to do that once before watching the iso
[19:30] <sardiskan> It is already set to the correct location
[19:31] <sardiskan> I see it
[19:31] <sardiskan> thx
[19:41] <sabhain> my experience I had to actually "edit" each file for them to show in the listing under videos
[19:41] <sardiskan> I see it now
[19:41] <sardiskan> thx
[19:41] <sardiskan> I don't know what the "Unknown" and "?" are about
[19:41] <sardiskan> how do I change that?
[19:50] <sabhain> try to pull down the info from IMDB .. that may fill those items in
[19:50] <ddgoose> sardiskan: hit the right arrow key->search
[19:51] <ddgoose> should fill in the imdb info
[19:51] <ddgoose> if not you can search imdb by hand and enter the number yourself
[19:58] <sardiskan> ahh
[19:59] <sardiskan> I have a remote...and all of the buttons do not send a signal to the server....why is that?
[19:59] <ddgoose> what remote do you have?
[19:59] <sardiskan> hang no
[20:00] <sardiskan> on
[20:00] <ddgoose> right arrow key on keyboard will work also
[20:00] <sardiskan> the right arrow works
[20:01] <sardiskan> I have this remote
[20:01] <sardiskan> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16880121003
[20:02] <sabhain> that should work .. you'll need to tweak your lircd.conf and .lircrc .. but that's manageable
[20:03] <sardiskan> about 15 buttons don't send a valid code to the box
[20:03] <sardiskan> the rest do
[20:04] <sardiskan> and in fact...the rest seem to do the correct function
[20:05] <sabhain> when you use irw in a command prompt .. do codes show up for each button?
[20:06]  * sabhain has a similar remote .. takes a little kicking but it should do the job
[20:08] <sardiskan> how do you set that up?
[20:08] <sardiskan> how do I know i have the rigth remote setup in the mythbuntu setup
[20:16] <orangepeelbeef> guys i'm having a problem trying to install mythvideo, getting errors with libxml-sax-expat-perl and libxml-libxml-perl   http://pastebin.com/m65a9befd
[20:32] <ddgoose> run sudo apt-get -f check
[20:32] <ddgoose> then try again
[20:36] <sabhain> sardiskan are you able to run the command "irw" in a terminal window?  Should just drop a line and stay blank.  Then push a button on the remote.
[20:37] <sabhain> I chose the "mce old version" in the control center .. it had the right codes for the buttons, but not all buttons were assigned a task .. I found a website like "lircd configurator" or something that was helpful.
[20:39] <ddgoose> his remote uses mceusb2
[20:45] <ddgoose> sabhain: this site? --> http://lircconfig.commandir.com/configure/
[20:46] <balachmar> Hi, I want to add my second pvr150 card, but when I add /dev/video1 to the list it turns into /dev/video0 instead
[20:47] <balachmar> is this a known bug?
[20:47] <tgm4883_laptop> no
[20:47] <tgm4883_laptop> what do you mean add it to the list?
[20:49] <sardiskan> sabhain...I was able to run irw fromthe CLI
[20:49] <balachmar> at the backend, you have option 2 the capture cards menu
[20:50] <balachmar> then you can add a new capture card
[20:50] <balachmar> But I can only add /dev/video0
[20:50] <balachmar> If I add /dev/video1 it turns into /dev/video0 anyway...
[20:50] <balachmar> mplayer can play from /dev/video1 though
[20:50] <tgm4883_laptop> are you manually typing it in?
[20:51] <balachmar> yes
[20:51] <sardiskan> when I press buttons on the remote...I get text like this:
[20:51] <tgm4883_laptop> hmm, perhaps thats the problem
[20:51] <sardiskan> "00000000037ff07bdc 00 Back mseusb
[20:51] <balachmar> I think so too
[20:51] <balachmar> let me check
[20:51] <tgm4883_laptop> you should be able to select it with the remote
[20:52] <balachmar> that IS the problem
[20:52] <balachmar> should I file a bug, because with some of the numeric value lists you are not allowd to type the value, this should be the same
[20:53] <tgm4883_laptop> so you can't select /dev/video1 with the remote?
[20:53] <tgm4883_laptop> i'll have to check it when I get home
[20:54] <balachmar> I can check it with the keyboard as well
[20:55] <balachmar> but then using the arrows instead of typing
[20:56] <balachmar> Now I just need to get it to boot in time for a recording like it used to
[20:57] <balachmar> But I know how that is done, but I have to wait for the old recordings to be transferred from my network disk. Which will take the whole night...
[20:57] <balachmar> What is actually the fastest way to back stuff up?
[20:59] <peoples_> hey guys
[21:00] <peoples_> has someone running a mythbackend + frontend system with working suspend , s3 ?
[21:01] <peoples_> i'm running mythbuntu 8.04 and not be able to get this thing done .. :\
[21:01] <balachmar> you want it to wake from suspend as well?
[21:01] <balachmar> In order to record stuff...
[21:01] <balachmar> I have looked at it a little more than a year ago and couldn't find how to do it.
[21:01] <peoples_> yes as well .. but also manual wake up with wol ..
[21:02] <balachmar> But since suspend isn't reliable I wouldn't recommend using it for this kind of things
[21:02] <peoples_> WOL works fine .. but mythbackend needs zu be restarted everytime after resume from suspend
[21:03] <balachmar> But probably other people here are more educated on this. I just let it shut down and wake up for the recordings
[21:03] <peoples_> and what instead ? :)
[21:04] <balachmar> Just a full poweroff
[21:04] <peoples_> with mythwelcome right ?
[21:04] <balachmar> and use nvram wakeup or acpi to let it wake up
[21:04] <balachmar> yes
[21:05] <balachmar> That is what I had (and will do after everything is set up fine, just reinstalled to get mythbuntu) and it worked perfectly
[21:06] <peoples_> is it possible to initiate the mythwelcome shutdown manualy?
[21:07] <peoples_> so i can run this instead of standard suspend mode wich is running with pm-utils
[21:07] <balachmar> yes, it knows when it has booted automatically and then it will shut down automatically. But when you started it manually it will stay awake until you exit mythfrontend
[21:07] <peoples_> and he wakesup if there is something to record .. or i but it on manualy
[21:08] <balachmar> you can still set it up to wake on lan as well
[21:08] <balachmar> yes
[21:09] <balachmar> http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/System_wakeup
[21:09] <balachmar> That might help you out
[21:11] <peoples_> thank you .. i'll try mythwelcome instead of pm-utils .. ;)
[21:11] <sardiskan> strange
[21:12] <sardiskan> I'm looking at the lircd.conf file and all the codes are in there that match what I see from running irw
[21:12] <sardiskan> but when I'm in mythtv...nothing comes up for those 15 buttons
[21:14] <sardiskan> what controls what each code sends to the mythtv server?
[21:15] <peoples_> balachmar: are you using suspend s3 mode ? or let you mythwelcome shutdown the pc completely?
[21:16] <balachmar> peoples_: I let it shutdown completely.
[21:18] <peoples_> ah k .. thats the point .. i'll use suspend .. but it seems mythwelcome only works with complete shutdown .. ?
[21:18] <sabhain> sardiskan, the answer to that is found in your .lircrc file
[21:19] <balachmar> peoples_: Then I don't know how to do it.
[21:19] <sardiskan> under /home/usernam/.lircrc?
[21:19] <sardiskan> I don't see anything but several includes
[21:20] <ddgoose> sardiskan: try this, go to your home dir, "mv .lircrc .lircrc.bak" then "mythbuntu-lirc-generator -L <your lircd.conf>"
[21:21] <sabhain> I ran into that too .. and since on my FE's I only run mythbuntu, I just made a .lircrc that had the commands directly
[21:22] <ddgoose> if you want a single file do "mythbuntu-lirc-generator -L <your lircd.conf> -l .lircrc"
[21:23] <sardiskan> that command just recreated what was already there
[21:23] <sardiskan> do I need to restart the ir service?
[21:24] <ddgoose> probably doesnt know what to do with the extra keys I guess
[21:27] <sabhain> sardiskan, take a look at your ~/.lirc/mythtv or whatever the includes is pointing too .. what's in there?
[21:38] <sardiskan> I see it...I can add the names and relate that name to a character
[21:38] <sardiskan> cool
[22:02] <sabhain> gotta go .. good luck sardiskan
[22:05] <sardiskan> thx man
[22:05] <sardiskan> you have all been great
[22:12] <Nikas> So. I'm running a clean ubuntu 8.04 on my laptop. My other computers are running MythBuntu 8.04. Can i install the frontend on this computer and how?
[22:13] <Nikas> this computer = laptop ;)
[22:13] <sardiskan> yes you can...to install just use the mythbuntu frontend
[22:14] <Nikas> sardiskan: how do you mean?
[22:19] <tgm4883_laptop> Nikas, install mythbuntu-control-center, you can activate the frontend from there
[22:19] <tgm4883_laptop> alternatively, you can install the frontend packcage
[22:19] <tgm4883_laptop> I believe it is called mythtv-frontend
[22:21] <Nikas> i used.. some page :)
[22:21] <Nikas>                     http://www.mythbuntu.
[22:21] <Nikas> org/existing-ubuntu
[22:21] <Nikas> from the MythBuntu 8.04 install pdf :)
[22:30] <ddgoose> laga what tex editor are you using? I checked out a couple but kile seemed like it was going to do the trick, any opinons?
[22:38] <laga> ddgoose: i used vim or kate ;)
[22:38] <ddgoose> ok
[22:39] <ddgoose> so far kile is pretty slick
