| KillerKiwi2005 | [ 5804.130084] pvrusb2: Device microcontroller firmware (re)loaded; it should now reset and reconnect. | 02:59 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | looks like its got its firmware already | 02:59 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | try ls /dev/video* | 03:00 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | looks like it should be /dev/video1 | 03:01 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | [ 8383.594442] pvrusb2: unregistered device video1 [mpeg] | 03:01 |
| spikemcc | i got the two files video0 and video1 but i can open them | 03:01 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | there not files there devices..... like in windows but they are visible on the filesystem | 03:02 |
| spikemcc | ok | 03:02 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | video0 is probably your webcam | 03:03 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | or another video capture card | 03:03 |
| spikemcc | yes i got my webcam plugged in | 03:03 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | yup thats what video0 is then | 03:03 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | so it looks like its working... just fire myth setup up and run through that | 03:03 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | select /dev/video1 as your device | 03:04 |
| spikemcc | can I test it another way ? | 03:04 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | yes do you have mplayer installed | 03:04 |
| spikemcc | i wanna make sure it work | 03:04 |

| spikemcc | in mplayer i do what to test it ? | 03:04 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | mplayer /dev/video1 | 03:04 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | it will propably be static though ;) | 03:05 |
| spikemcc | the sound work | 03:05 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | cool | 03:05 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | you might be missing a codex for the video | 03:06 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | codec | 03:06 |
| spikemcc | how i install it | 03:06 |
| spikemcc | mplayer doesn't have open | 03:06 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | mythtv should pull it in | 03:06 |
| spikemcc | i installed it | 03:06 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | is it a dvb-t capture? | 03:07 |
| spikemcc | i have installed it | 03:07 |
| spikemcc | yes i think | 03:07 |
| spikemcc | my cable is in | 03:07 |
| spikemcc | on it | 03:07 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | digital not analogue? | 03:07 |
| spikemcc | it work with windows perfectly | 03:07 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | id try it though mythtv... it handles all this for you | 03:08 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | the card is working | 03:08 |
| spikemcc | http://rafb.net/p/OlpNaK47.html see the mplayer output | 03:09 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | for the codecs you could try medibuntu | 03:09 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu its a repo with lots of restricted codecs | 03:10 |
| spikemcc | ok | 03:10 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | also what video card do you have nvidia ? | 03:12 |
| spikemcc | ati | 03:12 |
| spikemcc | ati radeon xpress 1150 256 mo integrated | 03:12 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | yuck :) | 03:13 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | try the restircted driver | 03:13 |
| spikemcc | a good chip anyway for a laptop | 03:13 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | linux and ati have an historically bad relationship | 03:13 |
| spikemcc | i got the latest drivers it handle 1280x800 80fps gaming | 03:13 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | ok | 03:13 |
| spikemcc | I know for linux history with ati but it will be soon over | 03:14 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | your runing myth on a laptop :) | 03:14 |
| spikemcc | yes | 03:14 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | true | 03:14 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | thanks to AMD | 03:14 |
| spikemcc | ati always better than nvidia for some things you should wait and see | 03:15 |
| spikemcc | artist like ati and gamerz like nvidia for speed (linux helped with drivers a little if you don't know) | 03:16 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | i got intel in my lenovo laptop... works nice | 03:16 |
| spikemcc | intel ouch | 03:17 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | lol | 03:17 |
| spikemcc | but lenovo a perfect choice for linux | 03:17 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | yes works out of the box | 03:17 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | suspend + hibernate + all devices | 03:17 |
| spikemcc | in my case i choosed it for this www.ubuntu1501.com | 03:18 |
| spikemcc | great price and performance and lot of tutorials for windows and linux even mac os X work on it | 03:18 |
| spikemcc | i mostly use it as a testing machine so it handles pretty well the job | 03:20 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | My biggest concern was will it survive the kids jumping/falling on it.... lenono == yes, toshiba == FAIL | 03:20 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | cheap usless toshiba | 03:20 |
| spikemcc | ouch you're rude man | 03:20 |
| WattoDaToydarian | Hey does anyone know how to make a dvdrom automatically mount to a specific folder on insertion? | 03:21 |
| spikemcc | sorry i don't know for this issue | 03:21 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | udev rule... maybe | 03:22 |
| spikemcc | sources.list french service unnavaillaible it sucks !!! | 03:22 |
| spikemcc | KillerKiwi2005 thanks for your help | 03:24 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | np | 03:25 |
| spikemcc | it's hard for the first time to try it | 03:25 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | yes.. yes it is :) | 03:25 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | spikemcc: a better setup might be a dedicated backend box and just mythfrontend on your laptop | 03:26 |
| spikemcc | can you point me a good tutorial for mythtv or another good dvb app setup ? | 03:27 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | you done the worst bit.. trust me the rest of the setup is all gui | 03:27 |
| spikemcc | i know but i use it for both but i got plenty of power | 03:27 |
| spikemcc | no but i still need help for the setup a tutorial should help me beat the rest | 03:28 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | http://www.mythbuntu.org/installation_manual | 03:28 |
| spikemcc | does it's hard with lirc for the ir remote ? | 03:30 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | yeah lirc can be tricky.. if you have a common remote mythbuntu control center will do the hard work for you | 03:32 |
| spikemcc | i hope | 03:33 |
| spikemcc | lol | 03:33 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | its more that there a so many pieces,, driver -> lircd -> myth | 03:34 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | plus remote config | 03:35 |
| spikemcc | ok i will try to config but it seem full of unusefull parts in the setup tutorial | 03:38 |
| spikemcc | see ya and thanks for all !!! | 03:41 |
| pteague | There is -2 days worth of data, through to 2008-07-04 | 04:29 |
| pteague | is there a cronjob i can run to keep my tv guide data up to date without me having to manually do it all the time? | 04:30 |
| tgm4883_laptop | pteague, in the frontend you need to set mythfilldatabase to run daily. It is undergeneral setup | 04:33 |
| pteague | does that mean i need to keep a frontend running? | 04:34 |
| tgm4883_laptop | no | 04:34 |
| tgm4883_laptop | you just set it on the frontend, it's a backend proces | 04:34 |
| tgm4883_laptop | s | 04:34 |
| Frans-Willem | tgm4883_laptop: Quick question about mythfilldatabase, any idea as what user it runs when started automatically? running mythfilldatabase manually seems to work fine whereas the automatic always fails here (xmltv error code 256) | 04:35 |
| pteague | cool | 04:37 |
| pteague | do you guys think 512mb ram is ok for a frontend? | 04:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | pteague, should be fine | 04:39 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Frans-Willem, i'd have to guess the mythtv user | 04:39 |
| hads | Yeah, same as the backend | 04:45 |
| hads | So you'll need to take into account the $HOME for that user | 04:46 |
| === MythbuntuGuest59 is now known as Rimers | ||
| Rimers | hi guys, i got a slight problem, not with my mythbuntu install itself, but with the fact that i can't figure out what program is using the harddisk every 1/2 second, is there a way to troubleshoot that and what program can i use to see what programs access the harddisk | 09:12 |
| jduggan | Rimers: if you're recording, its mythtv | 09:14 |
| Rimers | not recording | 09:14 |
| jduggan | there are lots of apps writing to disk, syslog etc | 09:14 |
| Rimers | as far as i can see mythtv is not doing anything | 09:14 |
| Rimers | even tried stopping mythtv process to verify it was not the problem | 09:15 |
| Rimers | atm i have stopped mythtv, samba, nfs and cron to try locating the source | 09:17 |

| quentusrex | jphillip, ? | 19:01 |
| jphillip | quentusrex sorry, I don't know particular hardware, just that hdmi sound is hit or miss depending on your hardware | 19:31 |
| spikemcc | I still have 4 issues to resolve with hardy my microphone , my keyboard layout for old canadian french keyboard , | 19:36 |
| spikemcc | my hauppage wintvpvr usb 2 setup and my game controllers block each other ... | 19:36 |
| KjetilK | has anybody compiled the latest mantis drivers for Ubuntu? | 21:25 |
| zabbadapp | so I upgraded mythbuntu to 8.04, but mysql doesn't start ... it says: ERROR: Using expire_logs_days without log_bin crashes the server ... also, every /etc/init.d/mysql* file has a new version that ends in .dpkg-new ... i.e. mysql and mysql.dpkg-new and so on ... why isn't the one with the newer filedate replacing the old one? Upgrade only asked about my.cnf which I let it replace | 21:56 |
| zabbadapp | ok .. so letting the upgrade replace my.cnf was a mistake ... replaced it with the old one and mysql started | 22:03 |
| zabbadapp | oh, "dpkg was interrupted" ... so the upgrade was never completed??! well, it did some kind of restart of X and the stopped with the desktop running at low res and a new theme ... | 22:11 |
| laga | how did you upgrade? | 22:14 |
| zabbadapp | started the upgrade manager | 22:15 |
| laga | well, that certainly shouldnt happen then :( | 22:15 |
| zabbadapp | i don't know if I was too quick to restart it when it seemed finished and just sat with the desktop, new theme and low resolution ... | 22:16 |
| zabbadapp | mythbackend won't start either :-( /usr/bin/mythbackend: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libmythavcodec-0.21.so.0: undefined symbol: faacDecOpen | 22:20 |
| zabbadapp | ah, I have to re-add weekly fixes for hardy first? | 22:25 |
| rhpot1991 | there is some way to have dpkg finish what it was doing | 22:33 |
| rhpot1991 | if you try to sudo apt-get upgrade again it should tell you the command | 22:33 |
| zabbadapp | yes, i did that. fixed mysql. but mythtvbackend still didn't start, so I read that the weekly fixes repos in gutsy caused hardy mythtv not to be upgraded. So I added the hardy fixes repos and did apt-get update, apt-get upgrade and lots of mythpackages where installed ... but still the same error after reboot and trying to start mythtvbackend | 22:35 |
| rhpot1991 | check your mysql password, maybe it changed it? | 22:35 |
| zabbadapp | i can connect with sql-yog (wine) to the db... and "symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libmythavcodec-0.21.so.0: undefined symbol: faacDecOpen" sounds like something else is wrong | 22:37 |
| zabbadapp | hmm, I started the update manager, and it says "a previous upgrade didn't complete" ... "run a partial upgrade to install as many updates as possible" ... ok, i'll try | 22:39 |
| zabbadapp | YES! it started :-D ... wheeew | 22:46 |
| zabbadapp | but wtf happened to the xfce sensors plugin??!! purple and green text for my temperatures ... it looks sick, and there is no config in the properties for it :( | 22:49 |
| zabbadapp | configfile had colour-settings .. hope they kick in next time | 22:55 |
| zabbadapp | the LCD stops displaying myth-stuff when I start the frontend, how come? if I start watching live-tv it starts showing info on the lcd | 23:32 |
| zabbadapp | seems like it recovers and start showing mythinfo after using a jump point key .. i can live with that | 23:43 |
| zabbadapp | uhm, no ... it returns to the LCDproc status page after a while :-( | 23:44 |
| m_tadeu | g'night everyone | 23:49 |
