obake-sanok, now on 2 separate computers, one running ubuntu hardy and another running kubuntu gutsy, we are getting "QSqlError? Strange" when running mythtv-setup and mythbackend. any ideas on what could fix this? some responses said installing qt3-mysql, but that package isnt listed in synaptic and there isnt a qt4-mysql either08:01
obake-sanand even if im gone answer the question, Jakal will still be here08:04
hadsPastebin the actual errors (the entire output) and someone might be able to help.08:08
obake-sangreat timing08:14
obake-sanit just worked08:14
obake-sanor at least the setup started08:14
obake-santhe problem was that mythtv wasnt able to set up a user in the mysql database08:14
obake-sanor at least adding the user manually got the setup running08:15
toko789thank you in advance: I cannot find any valueable information for my problem... I have a WinTV Nova-SE2 which is stated to be supported out of the box. mythtv-setup in card settings always brings card-0 "device or resource busy" and for all other card-numbers "file not found". I did stop mythtv-backend before setup... any suggestion, hint or howto or article which could help me?08:25
obake-sanyes, it works08:26
obake-sandidnt work initially after what i said earlier, but it just took messing around with the permissions and stuff in mysql08:26
obake-sanif u want the information on how to get it to work (cause it seems to be a fairly common problem) to be archived, let me kno08:30
Ursiehello pees\ps16:08
Ursieany dutch people in here ?16:08
laga!ask16:08
ZinnPlease don't ask if anyone is around or if it is alright to ask a question.  Many people check back periodically and may answer your question when they see it.  IRC is not normally an instant fix so check back often for an answer.16:08
UrsieOkay sorry about that then I was just curious :-D16:09
UrsieHere my question16:09
UrsieI have an old PC where I want to run Mythbuntu on16:10
UrsieWhen I connect it to the PC everything goes okay16:10
UrsieMy tv Only Support 640x480@60Hz16:10
Ursieor 800x600&56Hz16:10
UrsieBut when the CD starts of Mythbuntu16:11
UrsieI see the first setup screen (The one where you have to selcet the language and so)16:11
UrsieWhen I selecet the Option Install Mythbuntu I nevere see any screen output anymore16:12
lagai think there's a safe graphics mode16:12
lagatry that16:12
Ursietried that already16:12
Ursiesame issue16:12
lagawhat kind of tv is that? LCD?16:12
UrsiePlasma16:12
Ursie42 Inch16:13
lagaheh. is it connected using VGA?16:13
Ursieyep16:13
lagait probably does not give out the correct edid information16:13
Ursieyeah ...most probarly16:13
lagawhy don't you just use a normal monitor to install, then set up an ssh server/vnc, move it back to the TV and use ssh to mess with xorg.conf till it works?16:13
Ursiebut how do i tell ubuntiu to run a atht resultion en refersh rate16:13
Ursiebecause I amnot confident enogh to try that :-D16:14
lagawell, VNC should be easy.. provided it works ;)16:14
Ursieyeah thats true16:15
lagai'm not sure if there is an option to force the X server to VGA.16:15
Ursiethat should be no problem16:15
lagathere probably should be one, but i'm not sure if we have one16:15
Ursiewhat is the Safe Graphics mode telling the kernel to run in then ?16:15
lagaVGA i suppose, but X might break it16:17
Ursiehmmmm16:17
Ursieokay ... wel i already tried to mess around with xorg.conf before tho get this set up running16:18
Ursiebut that was with ubuntu 7.116:18
Ursienever got it to work though16:18
lagamaybe 8.04 will work better16:19
lagashouldn't be that much of a problem, tho16:19
Ursieso ... well thanx for the help will try to keep online maybe somebody else have an idea16:19
UrsieI don;t know if My graphics card could support 800x600@56 Hz16:20
UrsieIts so low resolution I guess it should be possible16:20
Ursiebut as I said I am not confident enough to change the things how they should be chnaged16:20
Ursiewell thanx for the help laga so far16:21
lagayou can always ask on the forums for help with xorg.conf16:22
Ursietrue on that one otherwise I could check back here16:23

thedarkoneanyone have any idea how to downgrade xserver17:41
thedarkone?17:41
tgm4883_laptopthedarkone, you can downgrade packages with synaptic17:45
thedarkoneoh17:52
thedarkonetgm4883 only one i see is newest one18:05
thedarkonei tried force version18:05
tgm4883_laptopthedarkone, oh, then why are you trying to downgrade packages?18:08
tgm4883_laptopbecause it would seem that the current version was the first version and in order to go back further you would have to either grab from the previous version of ubuntu or compile.  Both which would probably break other things in Ubuntu18:10
thedarkonewell opengl sucks18:12
thedarkoneon new version18:12
thedarkoneof xorg18:12
thedarkoneit keeps getting black screen18:12
thedarkonei can't update the nvidia drivers to 173.14.1218:13
tgm4883_laptopit's just black?18:13
thedarkonethey don't work in this one18:13
thedarkonejust black18:13
thedarkonei get sound18:13
tgm4883_laptopwhat version of xorg do you have?18:13
thedarkone173.118:13
thedarkonenewest one18:14
levanderIn mythweb, what the hell it means when a program is listed in read in the program guide?20:31
rhpot1991levander: hover over "MythTV" in the upper left hand corner20:32
levanderah, thanks20:33
levanderNow my problem is, when I go about 4 days in the futre, it says "No Data" for everything.  I am using Schedules Direct.20:33
WattoDaToydarianHey does anyone know how to configure Mythubuntu 8.04 to automatically mount a cd/dvd on insert to a specific dir?20:45
thedarkonehas anyone used wintv-go?21:13
jimboHi. I'm trying to get Mythbuntu running on a Scaleo E media centre machine and I'm hitting problems pretty early on. I successfully downloaded the ISO and burnt it (it checks OK for defects). The machine boots off the disc OK. However, when I hit the menu option "Mythbuntu Live Environment" I get an unusable screen as if the resolution or frame rate is wrong. I'm trying to run it through the built in SCART connector o21:15
lagajimbo: you probably need to set up the X server correctly then.21:17
lagajimbo: your best bet is either the "safe graphics mode" or just using a normal monitor21:17
WattoDaToydarianjimbo, I think there are options that you can choose on that screen which will force it to run at a lower resolution. I think it has a list of function keys at the bottom which provide more options.21:17
thedarkonelaga what would cause opengl mode to fail go black screen but if i restart mythfrontend it works 1 time then i have to restart mythfrontend again21:18
lagathedarkone: a bug i suppose21:18
thedarkonecan i update nvidia to newest drivers21:19
lagathedarkone: known problem AFAIK, but opengl mode isn't really supported21:19
thedarkonei mean 173.121:19
thedarkoneit a fx 520021:19
WattoDaToydarianthedarkone, envyng will update you to the latest nvidia drivers. http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html21:20
thedarkonei see21:21
WattoDaToydarianthedarkone, oops my bad. I only see version 169 in that.21:21
WattoDaToydarianI am actually trying to find the best way to update my drivers right now so if anyone knows anything...21:22
lagaenvy-ng21:23
jimboThanks for the suggestions. I've tried running it in "safe graphics mode" (F4 for modes). Same problem I'm afraid. (It did look like the pattern was different so I guess it did make a change, just not safe enough!) I'll see if I can get it running using a normal monitor, although I do ultimately want to get it running on the TV of course.21:24
WattoDaToydarianlaga, I only see version 169 in envyng. The latest version from Nvidia is 173.21:24
lagaWattoDaToydarian, thedarkone: it seems that envy-ng already has the 173 driver.21:25
WattoDaToydarianlaga, are you using envy-ng 1.1.1?21:25
tafrynHey channel, I just installed 8.04 and I'm having a little trouble getting the number keys on my MCERemote to work. Has anyone experienced something like that?21:27
tafrynThey're acting like the numpad without numlock keys.21:28
tafryn9 = pageup, 3 = pagedown, etc.21:28
lagai'm not using envy-ng at all21:28
WattoDaToydarianlaga, where do you see that envy-ng supports the 173 driver?21:29
lagaWattoDaToydarian: in apt-cache show nvidia-new-kernel-source-envy21:29
bmathishello... How do shuttle pcs stand when it comes to a backend/frontend for mythbuntu?21:30
WattoDaToydarianlaga, well I don't have that package in my list somehow...21:31
lagaWattoDaToydarian: are you using hardy?21:34
WattoDaToydarianyeah21:34
lagaare you following the documentation on that website?21:35
lagait's in hardy-updates in multiverse for me21:35
WattoDaToydarianYup that's the problem, I was somehow missing that one...21:39
thedarkonewattodatoydarian eyn has 173.21:39
WattoDaToydarianOk I didn't have my updates repos installed21:40
thedarkonestill did not fix my opengl problem21:40
WattoDaToydarianthedarkone, I thought the FX series used the old driver (non-new)21:43
thedarkoneon nvidia says 17321:47
pretender_I have a WinFast DTV1000 that isn't working in mythtv.  I have added cx88-dvb to /etc/modules and mythtv scans for channels ok but when i go into mythtv front end watch tv i get a black screen for a second and then it goes back to the main screen23:49
pretender_I'm ruining ubuntu  hardy23:50
