szakulecI'd just like to give a huge thanks to the mythbuntu team- it's really, really awesome00:51
r0dzillagood evening02:29
r0dzillais there a way to have mythtv store recordings from different tuner cards to different hard drives / mount points?02:30
rhpot1991r0dzilla: check out the storage groups02:57
rhpot1991you can have different tuners use different groups I believe02:57
r0dzillacool, I have an HD tuner and a regular tuner02:59
r0dzillaif they are recordingg at same time, it would help out if they didn't have to write to same drive02:59
r0dzillathat would be the backend setup right?03:00
rhpot1991yep03:00
szakulecthe archive module is pretty awesome, althought it fails on any non-recording video for me03:26
szakulecit will transcode it, but since mythhelper can't find anything, it just exists03:26

Bob24is there an addon package that supports it10:01
lagano.. why would you need a file browser for the backend? i probably don't understand what you're trying to do10:02
Bob24well im folloing the setup procedure for my second hard drive on this website (http://www.xawk.com/ubuntu-add-hard-drive.html) and when it askes to go to places on the pc and click on local disk to mount i cannt find and file browser to do it with.10:04
Bob24any suggestions?10:07
Bob24can u do it manually like this: mount /dev/sda /media/disk10:10
lagayou still need to specify the partition10:11
lagaeg sda1 instead of sda10:11
Bob24oh ok10:12
Bob24is this ok: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt10:15
lagamaybe :)10:16
Bob24i cant see it in mnt though10:16

Bob24do u have to create a directory called sda1 as well10:23
Bob24in mnt10:23
lagano.10:23
lagathe contents of the file system in /dev/sda1 will show up in /mnt10:23

Bob24ddgoose: which ftp server would you recomend for Mythbuntu11:26
Bob24is filezilla anygood11:26
Bob24?11:26
Bob24or The FTP Client11:27
PennycookHey guys.  Recently I edited my /etc/network/interfaces file so my mythbox would have a static IP, but since I've done so it's stopped accepting mysql connections. VNC is fine, though.11:41
Bob24what do you think about this link (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/settingup-an-ftp-server-on-ubuntu-with-proftpd.html) is this the right way to configure a ftp server on Mythbuntu?12:16
lagaPennycook: um..15:17
lagaPennycook: look in /etc/mysql/my.cnf for an ip address setting15:17
lagai think it's a "listen" directive.15:17
PennycookThe "bind-address" is set to 192.168.1.10015:18
lagais that the correct address?15:23
PennycookYup15:23
lagahum15:24
lagaand no other bind-address statements somewhere in /etc/mysql? there's probably another config file somewhere15:24
PennycookIn /mysql/conf.d/mythtv.cnf there's a "bind-address=0.0.0.0"15:25
PennycookBut that's the same as my media centre downstairs and that's fine.15:26
lagai wonder if those entries are conflicting? maybe you can comment out one15:27
PennycookI'll try that.  Thanks.15:28
a58wickedPennycook: from http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/can-not-connect-to-server.html look for a post by Niall Mansfield - seems if you have 'bind-address' to the local ip, that will be the only machine to get access (I think :-)15:32
lagathat's silly15:32
a58wickedProbably15:33
lagayeah, only if you have "localhost" in there15:33
lagabut if it's a different address like 192.168.1.100 it should listen to anything from that network15:33
a58wickedEr ok, I see my misinterpretation. I'll butt out.15:34
PennycookI seem to be able to get in from here, but whether tha's true of on the network I can't say.  Will have to phone my brother.15:34
PennycookThanks for the help. :)15:34
sabhainhas anyone ever re-ordered the startup items in mythbuntu?  Specifically, moving LIRC to near the end, right before GDM starts?15:37
lagawhy would you want to do that?15:38
laga(mythbuntu/ubuntu totally needs to move to dependency-based startup. race conditions suck)15:38
sabhainwell .. LIRC fails at boot up.  Can't figure out why .. there's not much in logs.15:40
sabhainbut if I do a /etc/init.d/lirc restart IMMEDIATELY after boot from a CLI .. it starts up fine15:41
lagainteresting.. do you need to know how to move the boot order?15:41
sabhainbut from the boot .. no functionality.  I'm wondering if LIRC is starting before USB or something totally goofy like that .. I can't explain why it wouldn't start at boot, but a sudo restart of lircd would work fine15:42
sabhainis it easy?15:42
lagait should be :)15:42
sabhainbtw .. using snapstream RF remote if it matters15:42
lagaif you go to /etc/rc2.d/15:42
lagayou should see the init scripts15:43
lagaand now you should be able to sudo mv them15:43
lagathe number at the beginning of the script name shows you which ones will be started first15:43
sabhainwhat if some have the same number?15:45
lagadunno. :) i guess they're started in alphabetical order15:46
sabhainyou see any risk in moving LIRC late?  Or any reason why the start script would fail, but not a CLI restart command?15:47
lagawell, you can always restore the old behavior15:49
sabhainI'm also frustrated in not being able to capture the reason for the failure .. I just can't find much in the logs to be able to post a bug.  I've got really unstable LIRC behavior in general .. this startup problem, and the irexec program crashes intermittently also .. it's a direct reducer of WAF.15:49
lagai feel your pain. :(15:50
sabhainlaga, thanks for the input on reordering .. I'll try it tonight .. and report back.  I'm thinking to move it to the very end and do a rain dance and see what happens.16:14
lagagood luck on the dance16:15
keessuperm1: I should be useful in about 2 or 3 hours -- got stuff to take care of this morning.16:35
keessuperm1: is the fix something that should be SRU'd for hardy?16:36
lagabug 21895516:36
sabhainlaga, I wonder if it's related to this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/15048016:54

lagasysv init is full of race conditions. and crack.16:55

toorimalinux-headers-generic linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic these packages are being kept back when i upgrade, am I missing something or should I just do dist-upgrade do solve it?19:52
foxbuntutoorima, I suggest you do the following to make sure everything happens in the right order so you dont break the kernel: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade19:59
foxbuntuexactly like that*19:59
toorimaok just wanted to check if i was missing some packet, have seen it happen before20:06
toorimaone can install a packet then the upgrade works but i'll do the dist-upgrade then20:06
toorimathx man20:07
toorimaupgrade went fine20:51
