[01:07] <fastie82> hi guys
[01:08] <fastie82> I need to stop the lircd service from starting with boot up but need to run two commands instead, do you have any suggestions how I can do that easily?
[01:14] <fastie82> or do that at all?
[01:20] <fastie82> is there any reason why I can't login to the ubuntu forms?
[01:20] <Ward_> lircd crashes if i start a program that uses it
[01:20] <Ward_> what could be the problem?
[01:20] <Ward_> i have a creative breakoutbox (came with my audigy2)
[01:22] <fastie82> is there anything in the log files?
[01:23] <Ward_> which one exactly?
[01:25] <fastie82> well you can see if there is one under var for the program that you try to use or lircd log
[01:25] <Ward_> ill check
[01:25] <fastie82> btw how do you know it crashed?
[01:26] <Ward_> i checked if it was running, then i checked again afterwards
[01:26] <Ward_> wasnt running anymore
[01:26] <Ward_> i mean during
[01:26] <Ward_> not afterwards
[01:27] <fastie82> is there anything running when you do a ps -ef | grep lircd
[01:27] <Ward_> wait a sec let me boot the machine up
[01:27] <Ward_> its not up yet
[01:27] <fastie82> k
[01:27]  * Ward_ goes upstairs
[01:28] <fastie82> just so you know I am no pro just things that I had to look at when I was sorting out my remote on myth
[01:29] <Ward_> no problem at all, any help welcome
[01:29] <Ward_> i had lirc working before with my homebrew serial IR receiver
[01:29] <Ward_> but it would be crazy not to use the frontbay of my audigy...
[01:29] <Ward_> also its remote is very nice vor watching tv
[01:29] <Ward_> for
[01:30] <Ward_> ward      6249  6181  0 02:30 pts/0    00:00:00 grep lircd
[01:30] <Ward_> and this is after a fresh boot
[01:30] <Ward_> lirc should be setup correctly
[01:31] <Ward_> when i go see in mythbuntu control centre its set to creative breakout
[01:33] <fastie82> ok question have the remote worked?
[01:33] <fastie82> cause I was expecting an lircd running
[01:34] <Ward_> nope thats the problem, that it doesnt work.... lol
[01:34] <Ward_> if it would work i wouldnt be here :p
[01:34] <Ward_> the remote itself is fine as far as i know
[01:34] <fastie82> what happens if you so /etc/init.d/lirc start?
[01:34] <Ward_> with sudo i presume?
[01:34] <Ward_> or without?
[01:34] <fastie82> jip
[01:34] <fastie82> sorry
[01:34] <Ward_> no prob just making sure

[01:38] <fastie82> o ok..

[01:42] <Ward_> sound and lirc are not working
[01:46] <fastie82> yes from what I know you need to get lirc to see the driver(device) from my side I have been digging arround with a usb IR so I think I may not be any use to you.. but I will keep my eye open if I see something.. maybe someone ells here cause help you more..
[01:46] <fastie82> sorry
[01:48] <Ward_> no prob
[01:48] <Ward_> thanx anyway

[02:12] <Ward_> never mind
[02:12] <Ward_> i just screwed up the pcb anyway
[02:13] <Ward_> a connection was so strong the plastic came from the pins, it slided up half a cm
[02:13] <Ward_> to i had to press it back down and one pin went down with it
[02:13] <Ward_> to = so
[02:13] <Ward_> i feel bad now
[02:14] <Ward_> wasted so much time on it
[02:14] <Ward_> bah
[02:14] <Ward_> need to put everything back the way it was
[02:14] <Ward_> and still no fucking mediacenter
[02:14] <tritium> Watch the language, please, Ward_.
[02:15] <Ward_> im sorry its just that lirc is pure crap
[02:15] <Ward_> in fact mythtv in general is crap now in my eyes

[03:58] <MythbuntuGuest85> Hi, i'm hoping someone here can help me...
[03:58] <MythbuntuGuest85> I just installed Mythbuntu on my toshiba laptop. everything worked perfectly until i went from open source video drivers to activiating Nvidia 173
[03:58] <MythbuntuGuest85> I have lost my sound
[03:59] <MythbuntuGuest85> I've tried everything suggested about checking the mute settings on the mixer and all
[04:00] <MythbuntuGuest85> i'm trying to upgrade to nvidia177 , but i'm not sure how to do that, should i just do a complete wipe and reinstall and not use the nvidia drivers?
[04:09] <OpenMediaSupport> MythbuntuGuest85: How did you try to switch to the nvidia drivers?
[04:09] <MythbuntuGuest85> there was a notification on the top right saying activate nvidia drivers?
[04:09] <MythbuntuGuest85> and i did
[04:10] <OpenMediaSupport> That shouldn't have affected your sound though
[04:14] <foxbuntu> hi OpenMediaSupport been a long time.
[04:15] <MythbuntuGuest85> i've tried everything but sound is a no go
[04:16] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest85, alsamixer?
[04:16] <foxbuntu> aplay?
[04:16] <MythbuntuGuest85> alsamixer
[04:16] <MythbuntuGuest85> yes
[04:17] <MythbuntuGuest85> do i have to install aplay
[04:17] <foxbuntu> everything is unmuted?
[04:17] <foxbuntu> nope
[04:17] <MythbuntuGuest85> everything is unmuted in alsamixer
[04:17] <foxbuntu> ok
[04:17] <MythbuntuGuest85> i type aplay in terminal
[04:17] <MythbuntuGuest85> and nothing come up
[04:20] <foxbuntu> do this: aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav
[04:26] <MythbuntuGuest85> it says playing ra data..... Mono
[04:26] <MythbuntuGuest85> but nothing can be heard
[04:26] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest85,
[04:26] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest85, sudo apt-get install asoundconf-gtk
[04:27] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest85, also try sudo killall pulseaudio
[04:27] <foxbuntu> then try the aplay thing again
[04:28] <OpenMediaSupport> foxbuntu: yeah.. Been on the road quite a bit recently.
[04:29] <foxbuntu> OpenMediaSupport, hows business?
[04:31] <OpenMediaSupport> foxbuntu: waiting on stable freeview|HD support
[04:31] <foxbuntu> ah
[04:31] <OpenMediaSupport> Finally have it all working, but requires an Athlon X2 6000+ or greater for playback
[04:31] <OpenMediaSupport> which is too hot for our cases.
[04:31] <foxbuntu> myself I have spent tons of $$ and time on HDMI and Hybrid tuners
[04:31] <OpenMediaSupport> Hence I need better H.264 support for dual core or we are sunk.
[04:32] <OpenMediaSupport> Yeah I'd love to have HVR 2200 support which would make things easier as well
[04:32] <foxbuntu> I had worries about heat but have had no issues in testing even a Q6600 and Phenom 9850
[04:33] <OpenMediaSupport> X26000 is a 89W part which and gets damn hot on 1080i H264 broadcasts
[04:33] <OpenMediaSupport> fan noise is too loud
[04:33] <MythbuntuGuest85> foxbuntu> still nothing
[04:33] <MythbuntuGuest85> tried all you suggested
[04:34] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest85, run asoundconf-gtk from the terminal
[04:34] <foxbuntu> it will open an app up and you can select your default card
[04:35] <MythbuntuGuest85> ok lemme try
[04:36] <MythbuntuGuest85> brb
[04:47] <MythbuntuGuest85> alrite i'm not sure what happened, but it worked!
[04:47] <MythbuntuGuest85> i'm a damn noob, but i wish i knew what i was doing wrong
[04:48] <MythbuntuGuest85> foxbuntu> thank you so much!
[04:48] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest85, np
[05:32] <renjith> Hi all
[05:33] <renjith> Can anybody please give me a helpful document or link to understand the architecture of MythTV other than wiki
[05:34] <renjith> what i want to know is the structure of MythTV, working mechanism, a brief explantion etc
[05:40] <tgm4883_laptop> renjith, what do you want to know?
[05:41] <tgm4883_laptop> it's a client/server model
[05:41] <tgm4883_laptop> is that brief enough?
[06:49] <Thalass> Hey folks.
[06:50] <Thalass> I had a fresh install of Intrepid (regular ubuntu) on my laptop, with everything working. Thismorning I installed the mythbuntu packages and now the wifi doesn't work. Both mythbuntu and ubuntu versions were 8.10, so I don't get why the wifi would die like that
[06:51] <Thalass> Come to think of it, I'd better check it was the 8.10 mythbuntu packages... hah
[08:13] <Thalass> Never mind... I had the external wifi switch set to off (it's a momentary one, the colour of the LED tells you the status). I'm a freaking moron.
[09:58] <cann> morning =) after i reorginized my mp3 archive i no longer can "stream" my music files from mythweb. when i open a playlist in vlc i get the names of the songs but vlc just skips through then. it worked before and i havent changed any apache configs. i checked the symlink in mythweb/data/ and i points to the right directory
[09:59] <cann> anyone got any tips where i can start looking for a solution ?
[09:59] <cann> then = them =)
[10:28] <mib_u39goo> Hi there. Any way for mythbuntu to use a USB for persistent storage?
[14:38] <Decepticon> are you supposed to put the pvr150 into your first pci slot?
[15:30] <gregL> Decepticon, : It won't matter what slot you put your capture card in..
[16:06] <neoneddy> I'm not sure it matters
[18:13] <Ward1983> i cannot seem to get output from my soundcard, a audigy 2

[21:22] <hads> Ward1983: I thought you went to buy Windows
