| MythbuntuGuest84 | hello everybody | 00:40 |

| Nixon | <everybody> Hello MythbuntuGuest84! | 00:40 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | i'm in trouble setting up tvout | 00:40 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | :-( | 00:40 |
| === MythbuntuGuest84 is now known as Diesis | ||
| Diesis | nobody could help me ? | 00:41 |
| Diesis | i use an nvidia 5700 connecte via svideo | 00:41 |
| Shadow_M | Diesis, did you try using nvidia-settings | 01:14 |
| perilousapricot | diesis: I have a geforce 5700 and nvidia-settings works for me | 01:27 |
| Shadow_M | how do you get things to autorun in mythbuntu | 01:58 |
| oobe | Shadow_M, what do you mean dvds what? | 02:07 |
| Shadow_M | autorun programs | 02:09 |
| Shadow_M | and scripts | 02:09 |
| hads | ~/.config/autostart/ | 02:10 |
| oobe | oh | 02:10 |
| oobe | yeah that | 02:10 |
| hads | There's probably a frontend I don't know about. | 02:10 |
| oobe | there is | 02:10 |
| Shadow_M | hmm | 02:10 |
| oobe | i cant remember where | 02:10 |
| hads | It will be called sessions or startup or something | 02:11 |
| Shadow_M | hmm | 02:13 |
| Shadow_M | in the menus? | 02:13 |
| Shadow_M | damn xfce | 02:14 |
| Zinn | Shadow_M: Please watch your language. | 02:14 |
| Shadow_M | dang xfce | 02:14 |
| superm1 | Shadow_M, and in that directory, they need to be .desktop files | 02:16 |
| superm1 | not just scripts | 02:16 |
| Shadow_M | hmm | 02:17 |
| superm1 | so put the scripts elsewhere and craft the .desktop files for them | 02:18 |
| superm1 | there might actually even be an application in the xfce settings menus that does this magic for you too | 02:18 |
| Shadow_M | hmm i have heard that but havnt found it | 02:19 |
| superm1 | i know there is such a thing for gnome, it's possible its not available for xfce though | 02:21 |
| superm1 | who knows | 02:21 |
| hads | I think in the settings thingy maybe :) | 02:22 |
| hads | And yeah I forgot to mention the desktop files, I assumed there would be stuff in there to copy. | 02:23 |
| superm1 | yeah mythtv.desktop should be in there to base yours off of | 02:23 |
| Shadow_M | yeah | 02:32 |
| Shadow_M | but shouldnt xfce have something like gnome | 02:32 |
| Shadow_M | or no | 02:32 |
| Shadow_M | i am just asking | 02:32 |
| ll | Hello | 03:37 |
| Shadow____X | hi | 03:37 |
| ll | I'm having problems getting the MythTV Database Configuration program to work | 03:37 |
| ll | I get the error message Cannot Login to Database? | 03:38 |
| ll | I don't think it is the password | 03:38 |
| Shadow____X | what is having the issue the frontend? | 03:38 |
| tritium | ll: I think it might be. Why do you think it's not? | 03:38 |
| ll | I'm somewhat of a Linux newbie but I've been reading and trying whatever looks like it might help | 03:38 |
| Shadow____X | ll, are you trying to use a frontend | 03:39 |
| Shadow____X | ? | 03:39 |
| ll | I'm trying... | 03:39 |
| ll | looking | 03:39 |
| ll | MythTV Backend Setup | 03:39 |
| Shadow____X | ll, what do you have setup already | 03:39 |
| tritium | ll: did you see my question? | 03:40 |
| ll | I have MySql setup as far as I know. I can start that at least. Other than that this is the very first thing I am trying | 03:40 |
| ll | sorry, bit of a slow typer | 03:40 |
| Shadow____X | ll, did you use mythbuntu or just install it on ubuntu | 03:40 |
| ll | I started with gOS, with is Google's version of Ubuntu. I can't remember if it had Myth or not, but I think it did | 03:41 |
| tritium | ll: gOS is not Google's version of Ubuntu. | 03:41 |
| ll | Ok, distro?? | 03:42 |
| Shadow____X | gos isnt googles distro | 03:42 |
| tritium | No affiliation with Google. | 03:42 |
| Shadow____X | gos is designed to use google services online | 03:42 |
| tritium | You're thinking of goobuntu | 03:42 |
| ll | Oh, hehe. My mistake. | 03:42 |
| Shadow____X | thats all | 03:42 |
| ll | Ok | 03:42 |
| Shadow____X | ll, you will be better off downloading mythbuntu | 03:42 |
| ll | I am using gOS for sure though. | 03:42 |
| Shadow____X | and it will be setup faster | 03:42 |
| ll | and add the google services i like later? | 03:43 |
| ll | I'll have to download the whole thing again? | 03:43 |
| Shadow____X | what are you trying to achieve | 03:44 |
| Shadow____X | then we can go from there | 03:44 |
| ll | I only own one computer. I want it to do everything: multimedia, games, surf, etc. I had Micro | 03:44 |
| ll | soft windows media center 2005 before | 03:44 |
| hads | I think I'd use Ubuntu for that. | 03:45 |
| hads | That's just me though. | 03:45 |
| ll | I want to try Ubuntu too. | 03:45 |
| hads | You can either use the Ubuntu install disk and install mythtv or use the mythbuntu install disk and install ubuntu-desktop | 03:45 |
| hads | If you install mythbuntu-control-centre then you will be able to install the ubuntu-desktop | 03:46 |
| ll | And then to the Ubuntu install Myth, and then add Google's various add-ons. | 03:46 |
| * hads doesn't know about these Google bits | 03:47 | |
| ll | I'm interested in the Google stuff for portability. Don't have to be tied to one computer to do "normal" computer work. | 03:47 |
| ll | So, I'm in the middle of downloading a bunch of stuff using Ktorrent. Since I like to tinker, I'd like to mess with my current installation and see if I can't get the Myth to work. Some of the help I've read indicates that MySql might be the problem... | 03:49 |
| ll | I've got a few days to kill before the stuff is downloaded so why not see if I can't get it to work | 03:49 |
| ll | I can try via a terminal program and post the results. would that be helpful? | 03:50 |
| hads | So what exactly is the issue? | 03:50 |
| ll | I can't get the database configured when startting MythTV BackEnd Setup | 03:51 |
| ll | Error message says Can't login to database? | 03:51 |
| ll | I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 | 03:52 |
| hads | !mysql | 03:52 |
| Zinn | If you are having problems connecting to your mysql database, you can perform the following to reconfigure it: 1. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0 (pay attention to the root password you set, you will need it for the next step) 2. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database 3. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common | 03:52 |
| ll | I've done something similar to taht, but you have a couple of things in there that are new. I'll try taht and come back in a few minutes. Thank you!! | 03:53 |
| hads | Sure :) | 03:53 |
| ll | Ok, got that all done. should I try to run the MythTV Backend Setup again now? | 03:58 |
| hads | Sure | 03:58 |
| ll | Same problem. Would you like the info from the terminal program? | 04:00 |
| ll | Does the message "No UPnP backends found" mean anything at this point? I'm assuming that I'm beginning the installatoin of that.... | 04:03 |
| hads | Nope that doesn't mean much, pastebin the output. | 04:07 |
| ll | after the graphical program quits, it goes to a terminal program which seems to be doing the same thing. And there a rea a number of messages. Like no error type from QSqlError? Strannge... and some others, but I don't see how to copy them. is there a log somewhere that I can copy and paste from? | 04:08 |
| ll | I've tried highlighting the text and control-c but that doesn't seem to work | 04:09 |
| hads | I have to head out for a bit sorry. | 04:09 |
| ll | later. beer and a lady? | 04:09 |

| Paladine | anyone alive? | 05:22 |
| rhpot1991 | !ask | 05:22 |
| Zinn | 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. | 05:22 |
| tritium | Hi Paladine. | 05:23 |
| Paladine | hey trit | 05:23 |
| Paladine | just wondering if it is safe to kill X in mythbuntu or not | 05:23 |
| === N1X0N is now known as Nixon | ||
| Paladine | I noticed something is tied to the session earlier | 05:23 |
| rhpot1991 | Paladine: should be | 05:23 |
| rhpot1991 | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 05:23 |
| rhpot1991 | will restart it for you | 05:23 |
| Paladine | I dun wanna restart it I wanna stop it :) | 05:23 |
| rhpot1991 | should be able to stop there as well | 05:24 |
| rhpot1991 | then start to bring her back up | 05:24 |
| Paladine | yes I know how to stop x :) | 05:24 |
| Paladine | k thanks everything is still running fine :) | 05:27 |
| tritium | superm1: any idea what TV tuner is in the mini 10? | 05:47 |
| superm1 | tritium, yes. | 05:58 |
| tritium | Are you allowed to disclose? | 05:58 |
| superm1 | as far as i'm aware not very many details are public on it, so more than likely no | 05:59 |
| tritium | Fair enough -- I just hope linux support for the tuner is a possibility. | 05:59 |
| tritium | Have a good night, superm1. | 06:03 |
| superm1 | tritium, you too | 06:03 |
| tritium | Thanks. | 06:03 |
| pretender | when i do a scheduled recording with mythtv it watch recording and my recordings directory is empty. However when i go to previously recorded the recording is there. | 07:38 |
| pretender | thats the entry not the recording | 07:38 |
| hads | How much free space you got? | 07:41 |
| pretender | 16.2GB free | 07:42 |
| hads | Not a lot, perhaps your recordings are expiring. | 07:42 |
| hads | Check the | 07:42 |
| hads | !logs | 07:42 |
| Zinn | MythTV logs are stored in /var/log/mythtv/ You can use mythbuntu-log-grabber from the Applications menu or via command line to automatically post the most relevant logs to our pastebin. | 07:42 |
| pretender | done. I am welcome to any suggestions that you may have to fix this problem | 07:44 |
| superm1 | pretender, if you used mythbuntu log grabber, post the url here | 07:45 |
| pretender | http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/f1ddcdaca | 07:45 |
| hads | You've actually got 7GB available for recordings. | 07:49 |
| hads | I think your recordings are expiring due to not enough free space. | 07:50 |
| hads | Not much log to see there though. | 07:51 |
| pretender | ill see if i can free up some space thanks | 07:55 |

| duffrecords | I need some help configuring my Hauppauge HVR-1600 | 17:12 |
| duffrecords | I updated the kernel as well as a bunch of other packages last night, so I had to rebuild the cx18 driver | 17:12 |
| duffrecords | but the card isn't working like it used to | 17:12 |
| duffrecords | does anyone know why I would get the error "Failed to open frontend" when using dvbscan? | 18:37 |

| MythbuntuGuest84 | Hello, I want to stream recordings from mythweb, however when i try to configure streaming from Myth frontend, it just quits and takes me back to the desktop. Is there a bug I'm not aware of? | 22:21 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | I have 8.10 | 22:22 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | Need logs for this? Let me know | 22:23 |
| duffrecords | you mean when you try to play video, it crashes? | 22:31 |
| Antharian | What are the "Gotcha's" in 9.04? | 22:32 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | duffrecords, are you talking to me? | 22:34 |
| duffrecords | yes | 22:35 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Antharian, "gotcha's? | 22:36 |
| Antharian | well like 8.10 has a banged up static ip issue | 22:37 |
| Antharian | and that is already in full release mode | 22:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ah | 22:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | 9.04 knocks up your sister | 22:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | we're working on that though | 22:38 |
| Antharian | filthy bugger... | 22:39 |
| Antharian | well, as long as it has a better behaved network config model. The 8.10 is nasty. | 22:41 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | duffrecords, no, When I go to front end and select setup and try to configure mythstream, it just exits out if the frontend | 22:43 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | that make sense? | 22:44 |
| duffrecords | yeah, that does sound like a bug then. do you have the latest version? from source? | 22:45 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | I have 8.10 Direct Alternate download iso. I know there was a bug in that one with another issue I had. | 22:49 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | The other thing I noticed is that Most of the selections have a picture, for example for Optical disks have a picutre of a CD, however there is no picutre for mythstream... | 22:50 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | duffrecords, I wasnt abel to find any bugs on it, do you see any? | 22:52 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | or know of any | 22:52 |
| duffrecords | I haven't actually used Mythstream before, so I'm not sure | 22:53 |
| MythbuntuGuest84 | Anyone else have any ideas? | 22:54 |
| Antharian | does 9.04 have the same 8.10 issue with Static IP's ? | 22:54 |
| stiev3 | There are quite a few solutions to 8.10's network manager and that static ip issue. | 23:03 |
| stiev3 | not enough reason to go to 9.04 imo. if we're talking about the same thing: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-set-a-static-ip-address-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html | 23:05 |
| Antharian | The problem with these solutions is that my dhcp3-server won't start correctly until after the system has been booted to the desktop and network-manager starts up... I can't seem to sort out what is up with this... I've tried many permutations of the solutions listed there. | 23:07 |
| Antharian | Other than the static ip issue, I am quite impressed with the performance of 8.10 over 8.04. | 23:14 |
| stiev3 | ah, I went on that adventure for a few days too, came out the other side with a working 8.10 acting as my dhcp server/router and a few diskless clients. Probably not qualified to help you out that much, as all I do is combine tutorials until I make a breakthrough :) | 23:20 |
| Antharian | stiev3: did you end up just taking the network manager out all together? | 23:21 |
| stiev3 | Yeah, I ended up using wicd | 23:22 |
| stiev3 | which from as far as I could tell, wasn't configured to handle two interfaces | 23:23 |
| stiev3 | so I then went with webmin to configure everything related to the dhcp server and firewall rules. | 23:24 |
| Antharian | well, I did the 8.04 -> 8.10 "upgrade" yesterday and opted to go back to 8.04 today... but after seeing the difference in performance from 8.04 and 8.10, I want to go back to 8.10 | 23:24 |
| Paladine | stiev3, thin clients? | 23:27 |
| Paladine | I just made a myth backend out of a HP thin client :) | 23:27 |
| hads | There's a performance difference between 8.04 and 8.10? | 23:29 |
| stiev3 | Antharian, I ended up following this tutorial i think: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=926001 after replacing network manager with wicd. | 23:39 |
| stiev3 | And the only pitfall I had was that a certain setting in one of my config files kept being overwritten on resets, and I think the solution was this: http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6060607&postcount=5 | 23:40 |
| rhpot1991 | IMO its easier to just tell your router that such and such a mac address gets such and such an IP address | 23:45 |
| rhpot1991 | especially when you have multiple boxes that need this done, then you have a single point for changes | 23:45 |
| * rhpot1991 is in love with jumppoints | 23:48 | |
