[00:19] <ahave> hello, can anyone help me configure MTD to work with mythtv/mythdvd?
[00:22] <tgm4883_laptop> ahave, should work out of box
[00:23] <ahave> tgm4883_laptop, hello again.
[00:23] <ahave> tgm4883_laptop, well. I get a 'No Jobs. Checking and/or waiting for DVD.'
[00:24] <ahave> I setup a symbolic link to my /media/cdrom (dvd drive) in order to play DVDs - which works fine.. should this also effect the dvd rip process?
[00:26] <tgm4883_laptop> ahave, I don't remember of hand if there is a different location for the ripping info, i'll check when I get home though
[00:27] <ahave> ok, thanks
[01:05] <ahave> tgm4883_laptop, is there a way to check a log file to see why the rip is not working? mythfrontend.log does not seem to catch it
[02:25] <tgm4883_laptop> is there any reason that xfs should just break and the os no longer recognize what xfs is?
[02:32] <tgm4883_laptop> so who in here is a linux guru?
[02:32] <tgm4883_laptop> cause I got a problem for you
[02:35] <foxbuntu> tgm4883_laptop, have you tried xfsrepair from a livecd?
[02:37] <tgm4883_laptop> foxbuntu, not yet
[02:37] <tgm4883_laptop> whole thing is appearing to freak out
[02:38] <tgm4883_laptop> i just did a shutdown -r now and it's still trying to shutdown
[02:38] <tgm4883_laptop> appears to have hung
[02:38] <foxbuntu> mine did that when one of my drives died
[02:38] <tgm4883_laptop> I don't think it's the drive though
[02:38] <tgm4883_laptop> as it's a single drive that holds that partition and root
[02:38] <tgm4883_laptop> and recordings are on another drive
[02:39] <tgm4883_laptop> It's not doing crap right now, i'd hate to have to hit the power button
[02:39] <foxbuntu> I think your going to have to, and I also think your drive is nearing its end
[02:40] <tgm4883_laptop> foxbuntu, do I really need to run xfsrepair from the live cd?
[02:40] <tgm4883_laptop> I think the xfs progs are still available
[02:40] <tgm4883_laptop> bleh, just did a reisub reset
[02:40] <foxbuntu> you cant run them on a mounted volume
[02:40] <tgm4883_laptop> foxbuntu, the xfs ones wont mount
[02:40] <tgm4883_laptop> so I guess i'm ok then
[02:40] <foxbuntu> you can try
[02:41] <tgm4883_laptop> is there a way to kill the usplash while booting?
[02:41] <foxbuntu> not that I am aware
[02:41] <hads> If you remove quiet from the boot line in grub,
[02:42] <hads> erm, splash
[02:42] <tgm4883_laptop> yea i'm getting "mount: unknown filesystem type 'xfs' " during boot
[02:42] <foxbuntu> tgm4883_laptop, thats really odd
[02:42] <tgm4883_laptop> i know
[02:43] <foxbuntu> did you upgrade kernels recently
[02:43] <foxbuntu> ?
[02:43] <tgm4883_laptop> i don't think so.  In fact IIRC, a kernel upgrade was held back
[02:43] <foxbuntu> perhaps that will fix it
[02:43] <foxbuntu> try a dist-upgrade
[02:44] <tgm4883_laptop> can't
[02:44] <tgm4883_laptop> have no network
[02:44] <foxbuntu> lol
[02:44] <tgm4883_laptop> it's really fscked up
[02:44] <foxbuntu> HAL not working?
[02:44] <tgm4883_laptop> bleh, and now my keyboard doesn't work
[02:44]  * tgm4883_laptop takes a 12 guage to the backend
[02:44] <foxbuntu> tis after a reboot?
[02:45] <tgm4883_laptop> yea
[02:45] <tgm4883_laptop> worked before the reboot
[02:46] <foxbuntu> sounds like a borked kernel upgrade and HAL is broken now too
[02:46] <tgm4883_laptop> just hit the reset button
[02:46] <tgm4883_laptop> heh, should i try to revert?
[02:46] <foxbuntu> uh
[02:46] <tgm4883_laptop> it's currently trying to load 2.6.24-16
[02:47]  * tgm4883_laptop boots into recovery mode
[02:48] <foxbuntu> tgm4883_laptop, try running hal-device and see if you get an error
[02:48] <tgm4883_laptop> ok, sec.   Still booting
[02:48] <tgm4883_laptop> it's waiting on NFS shares
[02:49] <tgm4883_laptop> yep
[02:49] <tgm4883_laptop> hal-device errored out
[02:50] <tgm4883_laptop> /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
[02:50] <foxbuntu> yup HAL is borked
[02:50] <tgm4883_laptop> theres more to the error than just that
[02:50] <tgm4883_laptop> foxbuntu, sweet
[02:50]  * tgm4883_laptop loads the 12 guage
[02:50] <foxbuntu> lol
[02:51] <tgm4883_laptop> i'm not exactly sure how i'm suppose to procede from here.  Even if I could get a network, i still couldn't upgrade cause dpkg can't run
[02:52] <foxbuntu> I suggest rebuilding your system partition...
[02:52] <foxbuntu> fixing HAL has to be done before anything else, and that could take a month
[02:52] <tgm4883_laptop> what about fixing xfs?
[02:52] <foxbuntu> I bet its not broke
[02:53] <tgm4883_laptop> well thats a fricken catch 22 then
[02:53] <foxbuntu> its prob the kernel and HAL
[02:56] <foxbuntu> you could try loading a livecd and chrooting to your system and then dist-upgrading
[02:56] <foxbuntu> tgm4883_laptop, ^
[02:59] <tgm4883_laptop> hmm
[02:59] <tgm4883_laptop> lets see what happens
[03:00] <tgm4883_laptop> I just told it to load a older kernel
[03:00] <rhpot1991> quit breaking things
[03:00] <tgm4883_laptop> rhpot1991, I blame you
[03:00] <foxbuntu> rhpot1991, !!
[03:00] <tgm4883_laptop> and Obama
[03:00] <tgm4883_laptop> but mostly you
[03:00] <rhpot1991> what did Obama do now?
[03:00] <tgm4883_laptop> and your tree hugging waya
[03:00] <rhpot1991> met with some dude about an "internet marketing" opportunity today
[03:00] <tgm4883_laptop> Obama broke my backend
[03:00] <rhpot1991> apparently "internet marketing" == pyramid scheme
[03:01] <tgm4883_laptop> heh
[03:01] <rhpot1991> I was under the impression it was gonna be some web work on the side
[03:48] <grndslm> ok, so... i've had this new hardy/myth setup for a week or so at least now... but the recordings DON'T show up in the "media library"...
[03:48] <rhpot1991> grndslm: you prob have you view switched to show live tv
[03:49] <rhpot1991> hit your menu button (m key)
[03:49] <rhpot1991> change group filter, should prob be default
[03:50] <grndslm> yup, that was it!
[03:50] <grndslm> thanks!!
[03:52] <rhpot1991> no problem
=== tgm4883_laptop_ is now known as tgm4883_laptop
[04:50] <HunterSThompson> anyone know if there is such a thing as a flat-panel tv stand (mounted) made for tvs smaller than 50"
[04:51] <HunterSThompson> cause all the ones I see are for 50" plus...and they would all leave weird crap sticking out from the sides of the tv
[05:18] <tgm4883_laptop> HunterSThompson, you mean wall mounts for LCD screens?
[05:21] <HunterSThompson> not a wall mount...like a media cabinet...but the ones made for lcds with the mount on an extended "arm"
[05:21] <HunterSThompson> or some such
[05:22] <HunterSThompson> a piece of furniture as opposed to just the mount
[05:22] <tgm4883_laptop> HunterSThompson, not entirely sure what you mean.  Link?
[05:23] <tgm4883_laptop> I think* I've seen them at wall mart
[05:23] <tgm4883_laptop> that is if we are thinking about the same thing
[05:23] <HunterSThompson> http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3771366&CatId=1532
[05:24] <HunterSThompson> something like that but made for smaller tvs
[05:27] <tgm4883_laptop> are you talking about the horizontal bars that would show?
[05:27] <tgm4883_laptop> what size tv do you have?
[05:31] <tgm4883_laptop> HunterSThompson, depending on the size of your tv (width), that comes with 2 sets of horizontal bars.  I've also found another at walmart, but not sure the size of the horizontal bars there either
[05:33] <HunterSThompson> 26"
[05:33] <tgm4883_laptop> 26" screen?  or 26" wide?
[05:34] <HunterSThompson> screen
[05:34] <tgm4883_laptop> ok
[05:34] <HunterSThompson> the stands(?) are little pricey for me and I don't know anyone with one...Don't have much to go on here...just what's advertized
[05:34] <HunterSThompson> perhaps I'll just build one
[07:49] <ny00123> hey
[07:50] <ny00123> oh oops, am I in the wrong channel maybe
[07:52] <ny00123> or not...alright,
[07:52] <ny00123> I've tried looking for the answer over the Internet but couldn't find it, so I'd ask here if that's ok...
[07:52] <ny00123> Has someone got the Hauppauge WinTV PVR-150 to work on Linux with 4GB of RAM or more? (Not Vista where I know there may be issues, without some "beta" fixed I've found somewhere)
[07:53] <ny00123> *fix
[07:55] <ny00123> oops, I think I've maybe found the answer. If someone else wants to know the answer, it could be here (the asked question is different though):
[07:55] <ny00123> http://forum.mandriva.com/viewtopic.php?t=83195
[08:04] <ny00123> I understand that guy in the posted link has already got the PVR-150 capture card to work on distros other than Mandriva, and he's got 4GB of RAM.
[08:12] <selfsk> hi all
[08:13] <selfsk> does someone install sasc-ng for mythtv on ubuntu?
[09:31] <ddgoose> why on god's green earth would you have only 4 megs or ram?
[09:32] <ddgoose> ^of
[09:32] <ddgoose> embeded device from 1999?
[09:32] <ny00123> Talking to me?
[09:33] <ny00123> I've said 4GB (oh and I don't have any new hardware, yet)
[09:33] <ny00123> If not to me, you can ignore ;]
[09:34] <ddgoose> oh man, I shouldn't try to be a smart ass right after I wake Up :P
[09:34] <ddgoose> heh
[10:54] <laga> selfsk: no sasc-ng in here, sorr
[11:26] <ny00123> Reading  the following, there could be issues with the PVR-150 remote control:
[11:26] <ny00123> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=742129
[11:27] <ny00123> If anybody has got a PVR-150 with the remote working probably or not, please tell me. Please also tell the version of Mythbuntu and if it's 64-bit in that case.
[11:28] <ny00123> Oh, and just to be sure - What's the difference between LIRC and IR blaster? LIRC - For MythTV, IR blaster - For e.g. external cable/satellite decoder?
[11:28] <ny00123> oh..the latter is with LIRC...
[11:30] <ny00123> I think I know... The LIRC let's you use a remote control.
[11:30] <ny00123> (to basically control the MythTV)
[11:31] <ny00123> The IR blaster is another remote control, this time controlled by the Media Center and may control e.g. a Satellite decoder.
[12:36] <laga> i wish my mastr backend wouldn't shut down while mythtv-setup is running on another box ;)
[15:25] <tbic> can I upgrate my mythbuntu 7.10 to 8.04 by modifing source.list?
[15:29] <ny00123> Although untested by me, the following might help you:
