[00:00] pteague, np [00:32] How can i boot with a live 8.04 cd and see the software raid drives on my 8.04 hard drives? [00:32] My mythtv box is playing up :-( [00:49] hi all [00:50] !ask | Steven_M [00:50] Steven_M: Please 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. [00:51] foxbuntu: I'm typing out my question now, I was just being polite first [00:53] the md5 checksum file for 64 bit mythbuntu is a binary file instead of a text one, what do I need to read it? [00:56] Steven_M, you should be able to open it with any text editor [01:01] foxbuntu: hmm, yes. I wonder why firefox reported it as a binary file instead of a text one when it was downloading. [01:01] probably a wrong mime type from the server [01:02] ok [01:02] what file? [01:02] Greybeard, thats possible [01:03] the type of an object served over HTTP is specified by the header [01:03] Greybeard, its an md5sum [01:03] Greybeard: http://mythbuntu.org/download/?file=mythbuntu-8.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso.md5sum [01:04] well, you can check what mime type the server is giving with wget [01:04] Greybeard, Steven_M the mirrors are not all controled by the Dev team, infact several are donated to us [01:04] ok [01:04] foxbuntu: ahh ok [01:05] anyway it's open now [01:05] Steven_M, ok [01:06] Steven_M, that download link is really a script we made to pick the right mirror and rotate between them to provide reliability [01:06] foxbuntu: oh, good idea [01:07] thanks all, be back later :) [01:08] yeah, the server calls it application/x-iso9660-image [01:08] which is wrong for the md5sum file [01:12] Greybeard, which server? [01:12] mirror.internode.on.net [01:13] oddly, I don't seem to get the same content-type every time [01:13] Greybeard, thats one of the donated servers then [01:13] ok, I was just noticing [01:13] Greybeard, no prob.. [01:14] IE has made webmasters lazy, though this isn't necessarily an example of that [01:15] Greybeard, I think its a because of the mirroring software they are using rather than a vhost [01:16] its parsing out the .iso file extension and not the md5sum [01:16] does the mirroring software set the mimetype? [01:16] yeah, that seems to be what's happening [01:16] Greybeard, it appears to be handling it [01:16] it's not very important for the md5sum of course [01:16] nope [01:17] * foxbuntu notices his mime type is wrong too [01:17] what's more problematic is when there's an image, sound file or video served as binary/octet-stream or something [01:17] * foxbuntu goes to fix it [01:18] since IE looks at the name of the object, people only testing with IE don't see those wrong mime types [01:23] im so dumb [01:24] i was messing with muthbuntu and xbmc for hours then i relized my tv only had spdif out [01:24] and not in [01:24] and thats why the sound wont work [01:25] I can see how that would be a problem [01:26] though i still have one problem left with mythbuntu [01:26] if i goto the setup screens half of it runs off the side of the tv [01:26] how is the TV connected? [01:27] hdmi to a dvi converter [01:27] what's the mode? [01:28] i have it set in the nvidia setup thing to 1080p rez [01:28] 1920x somthing [01:29] so, is all of the X desktop too big, or is it just mythtv-setup that goes off the edge? [01:29] just mythtv-setup [01:29] x looks pretty good [01:29] that's very odd [01:29] it runs off the screen just a tiny bit [01:30] but mythfrontend doesn't? [01:30] for old analog TV, I'd think the problem was overscan, but there shouldn't be any for a digital 1080p mode [01:31] i dont know if im in 1080p [01:31] can the TV tell you? [01:31] it does not say that anywhere in the nvidia setup [01:32] it just says 1920x1080 [01:32] unless it's interlaced, that's 1080p [01:33] this lg tv has been a bitch [01:33] doesnt like to do hdmi sound passthrew for anything but ati cards [01:33] many TVs seem to be problematic [01:34] my LCD TV doesn't seem to be able to map pixels 1:1 from the DVI input [01:34] it's 1366x768 native resolution, which the video card doesn't like to do [01:35] for a while I had a mode that was close, but that stopped working, so now I'm just using 1280x720 (720p@60 [01:35] i just had to drop mine today from 1920x1080 to 1280x720 as well [01:36] shitty [01:36] mine's not very big, so 720p isn't really worse anyway [01:36] mines only a 46" [01:36] only, huh? [01:37] yours is bigger than mine. lol [01:37] 42/46 is the average in box stores right now [01:37] im pretty sure [01:37] you mean average in sales? [01:38] average in models? [01:38] we're only about 12 feet from the TV so 42" is fine [01:42] im trying to sell a 65" projection tv right now [01:42] i hate to give it away because i paid like 6k for it [01:42] but i cant even get 1000bux for it [01:42] how old is it? [01:42] 05 [01:43] sony i think it only does 1080i [01:43] not p [01:43] not a big difference, since there's little 1080p content yet [01:43] i got like 4tb of 1080p stuff on my solaris box [01:44] how much time? [01:44] dunno [01:44] its jus all movies off usenet [01:44] what encoding? [01:44] scene releases [01:44] so, are they from Bluray movies? [01:45] id assume to [01:45] err so [01:45] I'm just wondering what kind of video bitrate [01:45] im just mounting my shares now so mythtv can access them [01:45] I wonder who the idiots were who thought interlaced encodings were a good idea for HDTV [01:45] whats the prefered method for that just add it to the fstab? [01:46] yes [01:47] i think i will finaly stick with mythtv [01:48] no more wasting time switching from vista to leopard to myth [01:48] for the media machine? [01:48] yea [01:48] yeah, that has to suck [01:49] i got xboxes in the bedrooms [01:49] i will upgrade to popcornhours when i can afford to waste cash [01:49] I still boot to windows on my desktop for a few games sometimes, but otherwise, I use Ubuntu everywhere [01:50] i use vista/xp/osx and solaris [01:50] not much of a linux fan anymore [01:51] openbsd on all the servers i setup usualy [01:52] yeah, OpenBSD is good too [01:53] just for server stuff though, youd have to be pretty hardcore to use it as a desktop os [01:56] yeah, I tried OpenBSD on a server once, but I didn't see a compelling enough reason to switch from GNU/Linux [01:56] but of course, OpenSSH and a few other projects are used by us all [01:57] security [01:57] i guess linux is not as bad anmore [01:57] but there used to be so many remote exploits for it [01:57] for Linux or for apps? [01:58] linux [01:58] and the apps people use on linux [01:58] there have unfortunately been a number of exploits for various popular servers like Apache and Sendmail [01:58] what's the default MTA on OpenBSD, btw? [01:59] sendmail as of the last version i installed [02:00] I'd replace it with Postfix or something if I cared about security [02:00] openbsd runs most daemons in a chroot [02:00] definitely a good idea [02:01] i cant get linux to mount this cifs share off the opensolaris box [02:01] for some reason [02:01] Samba is the server? [02:01] cifs [02:01] CIFS is a protocol [02:01] Samba serves SMB and CIFS [02:01] opensolaris has a "cifs" server [02:01] you can also use samba [02:02] does smbclient connect? [02:04] yea its a premissions issue [02:04] i can mount shares off the win2k3 domain controller [02:05] you [02:05] you're using Linux's cifs driver, right? [02:06] whatever mythbuntu uses by default [02:06] I didn't know it did remote mounts by default [02:06] i added it to /etc/fstab [02:06] then did mount -a [02:07] asks for a password for the solaris share [02:07] and it mounts the win2k3 share as guest [02:08] where did you configure this? [02:08] /etc/fstab [02:08] so you did do it manually [02:09] how do you do it not manually? [02:09] you seemed to be implying it was set up automatically [02:10] mythtv should have a setup for smb built into it [02:10] yeah, that would be helpful [02:10] but i guess i dont use mythtv for its primary purpose [02:10] so, you're using "cifs" as the filesystem type in fstab, right? [02:10] yup [02:11] ok, that's what I was getting at [02:11] because there's also smbfs, which is less functional [02:13] ah [02:22] buenas noches [02:23] alguien habla español por favor? [02:24] hello [02:24] someone speaks Spanish please? [02:26] un poco [02:26] gracias por tu respuesta, buenas noches [02:26] buenas noches [02:26] estoy un poco confundido [02:26] con MythTV? [02:26] si señor [02:26] lo instale y corre sin problemas [02:26] pero no puedo ver samba shares [02:27] (comparticiones samba) [02:27] esto es posible con mythtv? [02:27] estoy usando mythubuntu [02:27] si es posible usar Samba o comparticiones de SMB [02:28] podrias decirme como? [02:28] u orientarme? [02:29] tienes que editar al /etc/fstab [02:30] y montar la unidad de red como si fuera una unidad logica? [02:30] unidad significa filesystem? [02:31] no, creo que aplica mejor a drive [02:31] pero te entendi [02:31] por cierto, hablas muy bien español [02:31] oh Ingles se llama "share" en SMB [02:31] gracias [02:32] de donde eres greybeard? [02:32] de EEUU [02:32] pero vivia en Centroamerica [02:32] entiendo [02:32] donde naciste? [02:33] hello [02:33] en Los Estados Unidos [02:33] same [02:33] bueno, agradezco mucho tu ayuda [02:33] voy a editar fstab y si tengo alguna otra duda, te consulto [02:33] ok [02:35] tienes que usar //computadora/comparticion para el comparticion [02:36] y "cifs" para el tipo [02:36] hay detalles en el manpage para "mount" [02:49] //servername/sharename /media/mountname smbfs guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode 0 0 [02:49] esta mal? [02:49] creo que es mejor usar "cifs" [02:49] simplemente reemplazo smbfs por cifs? [02:49] si [02:50] bien [02:50] ahora vuelvo :d [02:50] cifs es mas nuevo [02:50] no creo que "codepage=unicode" esta correcto [02:51] entonces lo quito [02:52] bien [02:52] funciona? [02:52] desde ubuntu ya puedo acceder a los smb shares [02:52] si [02:52] bueno [02:52] pero no se como verlos en mythtv [02:52] en "Setup" para Video [02:52] para el "Mythvideo" plugin [02:54] perdon [02:54] pero no encuentro la opcion [02:55] un momento [02:56] bueno [02:59] Utilites/Setup -> Setup -> Media Settings -> Videos Settings -> General Settings [02:59] "Directories that hold videos" [03:00] :) [03:00] soy una persona molesta? [03:00] no [03:00] :x [03:00] anoying? [03:00] puedes buscarlo? [03:01] estoy haciendolo [03:01] ok [03:01] el problema es que yo lo tengo en español [03:01] ok [03:01] habla ingles [03:01] perfecto, ya le puse la ruta de montaje [03:01] bien! [03:03] ahora voy a "Mediateca"... --> Ver Videos --> y ahi estan! [03:03] ok [03:03] estoy corriendolo en vmware y solo se escucha el audio [03:03] sera un problema de la maquina virtual? [03:03] posiblemente [03:03] bien [03:03] con la musica es el mismo procedimiento? [03:03] es similar [03:04] si, acabo de verlo [03:04] voy a intentar con mi musica [03:04] no sabes cuanta alegria me haz dado :D [03:05] bien! [03:11] tgm4883_laptop: I just discovered ~/.mythtv/config.xml [03:11] that must be what you were referring to [03:11] eso es para mi? [03:11] no [03:11] ok [03:11] perdon [03:12] no hay problema [03:37] greybeard [03:38] si? [03:38] ja [03:38] como haces para contestar tan rapido? [03:38] no se [03:38] bueno [03:38] agregue felizmente la musica [03:38] bien [03:38] pero no puedo escucharla [03:38] quiero decir [03:38] no puedo verla [03:38] la agrega y todo [03:39] pero cuando voy a "escuchar musica" [03:39] solo sale algo acerca de un playlist [03:39] y no mas [03:39] y hiciste el "scan"? [03:39] si, lo hace perfectamente [03:40] pero despues no me figuran para escuchar [03:41] hay que editar las lista de musica [03:41] con "3" en el teclado [03:42] ya estoy [03:42] all my music? [03:42] si [03:42] esa es la opcion= [03:42] ? [03:42] ya la active [03:42] ahora? [03:42] puedes ver las musica? [03:43] activo "all my music" pero no pasa nada [03:43] ok [03:44] y en el setup para musica pusiste el directorio correcto? [03:44] si, perfectamente [03:44] de hecho, el scan parece encontrar archivos [03:44] pero despues no los veo [03:45] que tipos de archivos son? [03:45] mp3 [03:45] hice el mismo procedimiento con las fotos, y funciona perfecto [03:45] pero con la musica no :S [03:46] posiblemente tienes que instalar los "restricted codecs" [03:47] ubuntu-restricted-extras? [03:47] creo que si [03:49] en el "Mythbuntu Control Centre" hay boton que se llama "Proprietary codecs" === MythbuntuGuest23 is now known as spamftw [03:49] hello world [03:49] hello spam [03:50] haha [03:50] acabo de activarlo [03:50] ok [03:50] sooooo... i downloaded and installed Mythbuntu today and am having some issues [03:50] me sorprende tu amabilidad [03:50] hopefully someone can help me out, i've only used linux 2 or 3 times before [03:51] (i know, i know, but i gotta start somewhere) [03:52] greybeard, you think you can help me out? [03:52] entonces, puedes ver la musica? [03:52] possibly [03:52] esta configurando el repositorio de medibuntu [03:52] ok [03:53] once i got the machine booted up, "hardware devices" told me i needed to update my Nvidia card drivers [03:53] ok [03:53] the program is a very nice gui app, so i clicked 'Enable' and the program looks as if its about to download driver [03:53] s [03:54] then i get a "failed to fetch http:// (blah,blah) .deb 404 not found [03:54] i've tried a few times to download drivers myself and install, but i can't get it to work [03:54] is video working? [03:54] defaintly, but i was hoping for some hardware acceleration [03:54] well, I mean is it working for MythTV playback [03:55] havent tried yet [03:55] its kinda hard for me to hookup to cable around here [03:55] well, it's probably just outdated URLs for the drivers or something [03:55] right [03:56] the file i got from nvidias website is a .run [03:56] tell the update manager to update itself [03:56] don't install it manually [03:56] is there a button for that? [03:56] ive already run update manager if thats what you think i should do [03:57] yeah, the "check button" [03:57] well look at that, more updates [03:57] im a 3rd year computer science major you know, if this fixes the issue i'll feel like a total ass [03:57] sometimes it's just too easy [03:58] well, while im wating for these to install, is it true there isnt a free listings service anymore? [03:58] you have to pay now [03:58] Depends where you are. [03:58] wisconsin [03:59] (in the world) [03:59] for TV listings in the US, Schedules direct is the best (possibly only) choice [03:59] Schedules Direct [03:59] right [03:59] 20 a year i think it is [03:59] it's not much [04:00] and there's a 7 day free trial [04:00] do you need a credit card to get the trial [04:00] espero a que termines de hablar con la otra persona? [04:00] no es necesario [04:01] bien [04:01] para descartar un problema con smb [04:01] ok [04:01] puse una ruta local, en un disco externo [04:01] y tampoco puedo ver mi musica [04:01] hads, you mind if i pm you? [04:02] puedes verlo con ls? [04:03] ls /media/disk/Música perfecto [04:03] puedo verlo bien en ubuntu [04:03] es algun problema con el frontend [04:03] pero no entiendo cual [04:03] y /media/disk/Música esta en el setup para mythmusic? [04:03] spamftw: In the channel is fine [04:03] ok [04:04] si [04:04] y hace el scan [04:04] hads, what about the service that say windows media center uses, theres no way to use that? [04:04] puedes ver el log de mythfrontend? [04:04] spamftw: I don't use Windows and am not in the USA so can't comment on either. [04:05] donde puedo encontrarlo? [04:05] MS probably gets them from the same place as Schedules Direct [04:06] any idea where that is [04:06] Utilities/Setup -> Setup -> Media Settings -> Music Settings [04:06] Schedules Direct gets their data from Tribune Media Services, as it says on the front page [04:06] sorry [04:07] greybeard, the drivers installed correctly thanks [04:07] good [04:08] en Import Music, si pongo la ruta de media/disk/Música puedo ver los archivos [04:08] Add all new? [04:08] no estoy seguro [04:09] creo que si [04:09] acabo de ver que tengo 70 actualizaciones disponibles [04:09] voy a instalarlars [04:09] quizas sea un bug [04:09] en Utilities/Setup -> Setup -> Media Settings -> Music Settings -> General settings hay "Directory to hold music" [04:09] si si, eso ya lo complete [04:09] well, thanks again for your help... have a good night, or day whatever it is by you [04:10] no se que es actualizacion disponible [04:10] upgrades availables [04:10] ok [04:12] tambien hay "Show entire music tree" [04:12] where? [04:12] en "Player Settings" [04:12] voy a buscarlo [04:13] ok, ahora tengo mythfrontend en Español [04:13]
