[00:01] <frozenskunk> Anyone 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/My
[00:03] <frozenskunk> superm1: 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.
[00:10] <superm1> frozenskunk, which one?
[00:10] <superm1> frozenskunk, i put up a fixed revision that should migrate your lircd.conf over
[03:00] <frozenskunk> superm1: 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?
[03:01] <frozenskunk> superm1: btw, thanks for all your work!!!!
[05:59] <superm1> frozenskunk, well so if you want to try .4, you should be able to now
[06:00] <superm1> but i'm doing the formal backport too, so probably better to use that instead of my ppa
[06:00] <superm1> keep an eye on bug 298785 for when the backport is ready
[06:00] <Zinn> Bug 298785 in intrepid-backports "please backport lirc and mythbuntu-lirc-generator to Ubuntu intrepid" [Undecided, New] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/298785
[06:02] <Timrit> hello, 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.
[06:03] <Timrit> it has happend around 5 or 6 times today
[06:03] <superm1> Timrit, i've heard from a little birdie that mythtv-status can sometimes cause the system to be unstable
[06:03] <superm1> due to a bug in mythbackend when it's queried too often
[06:04] <Timrit> ok but what would be causing the frontend to drop to the watch tv main page every friggin hour?
[06:04] <Timrit> its like the backend drops the connection
[06:05] <Timrit> or maybe it is my stupid router.
[06:05] <rhpot1991> when the backend disappears the frontend stops playing IIRC
[06:06] <hads> Here's an alternative mythstatus for you; http://paste.pocoo.org/show/91434/
[06:06] <Timrit> the only odd part is that it is at the top of the hour exactly.
[06:06] <superm1> so when the backend gets all pissed at mythtv-status for poking it over and over, it might me dropping off those connections
[06:07] <rhpot1991> superm1: any idea why some people have problems with mythtv-status and others don't?
[06:07] <Timrit> i only run mythtv-status to see what it is doing before i do a /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart.
[06:07] <rhpot1991> Timrit: it runs on its own
[06:07] <superm1> Timrit, it runs as a cron job too
[06:07] <Timrit> so hmmmmm
[06:08] <superm1> rhpot1991, probably some equivalent to the technology that santa uses to determine who has been naughty and who has been nice i'd imagine
[06:08] <rhpot1991> heh
[06:09] <Timrit> would the system run w/o mythtv-status?
[06:09] <rhpot1991> Timrit: easy way to tell is to remove it
[06:09] <rhpot1991> its not critical or anything
[06:09] <rhpot1991> you can use something like mythweb to check that status for the time being
[06:10] <Timrit> ok thanks guys. i will give it a shot.
[06:17] <rhpot1991> Timrit: if it fixes the issue make sure to let us know :)
[06:23] <Timrit> rhpot1991: i will.
[08:17] <cann> morning \o/
[08:18] <laga> morning
[10:38] <cann> .htaccess -> /etc/mythtv/mythweb-htaccess this is where it should point right ?. somehow my mythweb stoped working and i get "Could not create a symlink to" when i try to access my media files
[10:38] <cann> same with my mp3 archive. vlc or whatever progema iam using just skipps through the files
[12:23] <cann> hmm
[12:24] <cann> seems mythweb wants to create the symlink, so it works if i remove it from mythweb/data but if i close the browser and reload the page i get the same error again
[12:25] <cann> still no luck on streaming music though
[12:29] <MythbuntuGuest02> Morning everybody.  Hate to just join and ask a question...but could I grab a minute of someone's time?
[12:29] <MythbuntuGuest02> Got a question about installing Mythbuntu onto an external hard drive...
[12:34] <MythbuntuGuest02> nyeh?
[12:34] <MythbuntuGuest02> Everyone's asleep? lol.
[12:35] <Daviey> MythbuntuGuest02: ask a question
[12:39] <MythbuntuGuest02> I 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] <MythbuntuGuest02> I realize it was kinda dumb to select that option if I wanted to maybe save stuff after the fact =/
[12:50] <MythbuntuGuest02> I'm guessin', yeah?
[12:59] <LonEagle> i really wish ubuntu would rename the "guided" option. there's nothing guided about it
[13:00] <LonEagle> doesn't even give you a reasonable setup, or offer to let you split / and /home
[15:34] <md22> hello
[16:31] <MythbuntuGuest16> lets see if anyone can help me now, i have a mythbuntu install that has been running for months now my mythtv froze up when i went to videomanager and i rebooted, it boots to BusyBox now after showing the Mythbuntu splash for about 5 seconds...
[16:32] <MythbuntuGuest16> is there a way to get it to boot all the way to mythbuntu so that I can save my data?
[16:33] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest16, best way would be a live disk
[16:44] <MythbuntuGuest16> if i use live disk will that give me access to all of my data?
[16:44] <MythbuntuGuest16> i don't know why it is booting to Busybox
[17:23] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest16, could be a number of issues, bad kernel upgrade, broken HAL, video driver, broken X...ect ect
