TheGuyUpstairsThanks guys.  I'm going to try the number and then arrow thing.00:28
KasoI've just installed mythbunutu three times  (mythbuntu-8.04.1-desktop). The installation all goes without hitch but upon reboot it fails to boot with grub error 15 this is without me changing any hardware around, just reboot straight from install, Is this a known issue?00:34
Gumbyhi all.  I am trying to install mythbuntu and the disk formatting fails.  I am trying to run cfdisk via terminal but I need to input a password to be able to use sudo.  Of course there doesnt seem to be a password set so I cant use sudo00:39
Kasoare you in the livecd enviroment? last i tried sudo on the livecd did not require a password01:16
Gumbysorry for the Q and then no response Kaso.  I'm helping someone that is remote, the problem has been sorted out01:42
pwnuHi all.  I'm having problems with my pvr-500 card.  Sometimes tuner2 looks like it's off frequency.  If I cycle power the tuner restarts normally.  Is there a command I can issue to reset my pvr-500 without rebooting??04:00

SiscoAre there any tv tuner cards that support 1080p digital cable?20:54
superm1only if it's unencrypted20:56
Siscomhmm20:57
SiscoTime Warner Digital Cable20:57
SiscoYou normally need a digital cable box to view it, and I assume I would have to give them the MAC address of the card for it to work20:58
jphillipSisco you should be able to get your OTA channels with something like a HDHR, you could also try firewire but you might want to rip your hair out with that20:58
SiscoLol20:59
jphillip!firewire | Sisco20:59
ZinnSisco: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_Firewire20:59
SiscoSo I want a HDHR tuner card?20:59

SiscoIs there a way to get encrypted?21:22
jphilliphauppauge hd-pvr 1212 can capture over component, but you would need to run mythtv trunk to use it currently21:25
jphillipthat or firewire can get things that encrypted if your local cable co isn't blocking the firewire access21:25
Siscoi'm trying to not have to use a cable box21:29
jphillipSisco you should be able to get your OTA channels over unencrypted qam then, thats normally about it21:30
SiscoOTA?21:30
jphillipover the air, locals21:30
Siscoyeah21:31
Siscoi want to beable to get the channels like HBO HD without the cable box21:31
SiscoI am trying to make a all-in-one media server21:31
Siscoand mythtv seems like the way to go if I can get the digital HD channels that time warner offers and maybe satiellite too21:32
jphillipSisco doubtful it will happen, hd-pvr is about your only choice if you want something like HBO, and you need a cable box for that21:46
tgm4883_laptopSisco, i'm not sure you understand the concept of why there is a cable box23:02
