frozenskunkAnyone know how to get the TV output of a Hauppauge 350 working under 8.10? I have gotten it to display test patterns and such, but when I try to move my display over by changing my xorg.conf file, it tries to boot, but dumps me to a command line login (which is at least displayed on the TV instead of the monitor) instead of into an x session.  I have followed the steps here to get this far: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/My00:01
frozenskunksuperm1: fyi, I was having trouble with your lirv .4 version that you put up the other night, I kept getting an error that it was unable to load lirc.config. The error followed the include statements that brought in my actual files (the hauppauge and dish .configs). I tried the .3pre-1 version, and it works for me.00:03

superm1frozenskunk, which one?00:10
superm1frozenskunk, i put up a fixed revision that should migrate your lircd.conf over00:10
frozenskunksuperm1: the one that I used was the very first night you put it up, within an hour or two. foxbuntu pointed it out to me when I was having trouble with transmitting. An adventure through .4 didn't work, so reinstalling .3pre-1 fixed my issue. I never tried to figure out the .4 after that. What is it that is changed now in the .4? Can I upgrade to it now easily?03:00
frozenskunksuperm1: btw, thanks for all your work!!!!03:01

superm1frozenskunk, well so if you want to try .4, you should be able to now05:59
superm1but i'm doing the formal backport too, so probably better to use that instead of my ppa06:00
superm1keep an eye on bug 298785 for when the backport is ready06:00

Timrithello, can anyone tell my why my front ends keep disconnecting at the top of the hour? it has happened every hour and mythtv-status keeps saying playing livetv.06:02
Timritit has happend around 5 or 6 times today06:03
superm1Timrit, i've heard from a little birdie that mythtv-status can sometimes cause the system to be unstable06:03
superm1due to a bug in mythbackend when it's queried too often06:03
Timritok but what would be causing the frontend to drop to the watch tv main page every friggin hour?06:04
Timritits like the backend drops the connection06:04
Timritor maybe it is my stupid router.06:05
rhpot1991when the backend disappears the frontend stops playing IIRC06:05
hadsHere's an alternative mythstatus for you; http://paste.pocoo.org/show/91434/06:06
Timritthe only odd part is that it is at the top of the hour exactly.06:06
superm1so when the backend gets all pissed at mythtv-status for poking it over and over, it might me dropping off those connections06:06
rhpot1991superm1: any idea why some people have problems with mythtv-status and others don't?06:07
Timriti only run mythtv-status to see what it is doing before i do a /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart.06:07
rhpot1991Timrit: it runs on its own06:07
superm1Timrit, it runs as a cron job too06:07
Timritso hmmmmm06:07
superm1rhpot1991, probably some equivalent to the technology that santa uses to determine who has been naughty and who has been nice i'd imagine06:08
rhpot1991heh06:08
Timritwould the system run w/o mythtv-status?06:09
rhpot1991Timrit: easy way to tell is to remove it06:09
rhpot1991its not critical or anything06:09
rhpot1991you can use something like mythweb to check that status for the time being06:09
Timritok thanks guys. i will give it a shot.06:10
rhpot1991Timrit: if it fixes the issue make sure to let us know :)06:17
Timritrhpot1991: i will.06:23

MythbuntuGuest02Morning everybody.  Hate to just join and ask a question...but could I grab a minute of someone's time?12:29
MythbuntuGuest02Got a question about installing Mythbuntu onto an external hard drive...12:29
MythbuntuGuest02nyeh?12:34
MythbuntuGuest02Everyone's asleep? lol.12:34
DavieyMythbuntuGuest02: ask a question12:35
MythbuntuGuest02I installed Mythbuntu onto my external and went with the third option Guided - Use entire disk.  I'm guessing any files on there prior I'd have to use partition recovery software to get 'em back?12:39
MythbuntuGuest02I realize it was kinda dumb to select that option if I wanted to maybe save stuff after the fact =/12:39
MythbuntuGuest02I'm guessin', yeah?12:50
LonEaglei really wish ubuntu would rename the "guided" option. there's nothing guided about it12:59
LonEagledoesn't even give you a reasonable setup, or offer to let you split / and /home13:00

MythbuntuGuest16is there a way to get it to boot all the way to mythbuntu so that I can save my data?16:32
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest16, best way would be a live disk16:33
MythbuntuGuest16if i use live disk will that give me access to all of my data?16:44
MythbuntuGuest16i don't know why it is booting to Busybox16:44
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest16, could be a number of issues, bad kernel upgrade, broken HAL, video driver, broken X...ect ect17:23
