[00:40] <MythbuntuGuest84> hello everybody
 Hello MythbuntuGuest84!
[00:40] <MythbuntuGuest84> i'm in trouble setting up tvout
[00:40] <MythbuntuGuest84> :-(
[00:41] <Diesis> nobody could help me ?
[00:41] <Diesis> i use an nvidia 5700 connecte via svideo
[01:14] <Shadow_M> Diesis, did you try using nvidia-settings
[01:27] <perilousapricot> diesis: I have a geforce 5700 and nvidia-settings works for me
[01:58] <Shadow_M> how do you get things to autorun in mythbuntu
[02:07] <oobe> Shadow_M, what do you mean dvds what?
[02:09] <Shadow_M> autorun programs
[02:09] <Shadow_M> and scripts
[02:10] <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
[02:11] <hads> It will be called sessions or startup or something
[02:13] <Shadow_M> hmm
[02:13] <Shadow_M> in the menus?
[02:14] <Shadow_M> damn xfce
[02:14] <Zinn> Shadow_M: Please watch your language.
[02:14] <Shadow_M> dang xfce
[02:16] <superm1> Shadow_M, and in that directory, they need to be .desktop files
[02:16] <superm1> not just scripts
[02:17] <Shadow_M> hmm
[02:18] <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
[02:19] <Shadow_M> hmm i have heard that but havnt found it
[02:21] <superm1> i know there is such a thing for gnome, it's possible its not available for xfce though
[02:21] <superm1> who knows
[02:22] <hads> I think in the settings thingy maybe :)
[02:23] <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
[02:32] <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
[03:37] <ll> Hello
[03:37] <Shadow____X> hi
[03:37] <ll> I'm having problems getting the MythTV Database Configuration program to work
[03:38] <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
[03:39] <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
[03:40] <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
[03:41] <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.
[03:42] <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
[03:43] <ll> and add the google services i like later?
[03:43] <ll> I'll have to download the whole thing again?
[03:44] <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
[03:45] <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
[03:46] <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.
[03:47]  * 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.
[03:49] <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
[03:50] <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?
[03:51] <ll> I can't get the database configured when startting MythTV BackEnd Setup
[03:51] <ll> Error message says Can't login to database?
[03:52] <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
[03:53] <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 :)
[03:58] <ll> Ok, got that all done. should I try to run the MythTV Backend Setup again now?
[03:58] <hads> Sure
[04:00] <ll> Same problem. Would you like the info from the terminal program?
[04:03] <ll> Does the message "No UPnP backends found" mean anything at this point? I'm assuming that I'm beginning the installatoin of that....
[04:07] <hads> Nope that doesn't mean much, pastebin the output.
[04:08] <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?
[04:09] <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?
[05:22] <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.
[05:23] <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] <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 :)
[05:24] <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 :)
[05:27] <Paladine> k thanks everything is still running fine :)
[05:47] <tritium> superm1: any idea what TV tuner is in the mini 10?
[05:58] <superm1> tritium, yes.
[05:58] <tritium> Are you allowed to disclose?
[05:59] <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.
[06:03] <tritium> Have a good night, superm1.
[06:03] <superm1> tritium, you too
[06:03] <tritium> Thanks.
[07:38] <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
[07:41] <hads> How much free space you got?
[07:42] <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.
[07:44] <pretender> done.  I am welcome to any suggestions that you may have to fix this problem
[07:45] <superm1> pretender, if you used mythbuntu log grabber, post the url here
[07:45] <pretender> http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/f1ddcdaca
[07:49] <hads> You've actually got 7GB available for recordings.
[07:50] <hads> I think your recordings are expiring due to not enough free space.
[07:51] <hads> Not much log to see there though.
[07:55] <pretender> ill see if i can free up some space thanks
[17:12] <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
[18:37] <duffrecords> does anyone know why I would get the error "Failed to open frontend" when using dvbscan?
[22:21] <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?
[22:22] <MythbuntuGuest84> I have 8.10
[22:23] <MythbuntuGuest84> Need logs for this? Let me know
[22:31] <duffrecords> you mean when you try to play video, it crashes?
[22:32] <Antharian> What are the "Gotcha's" in 9.04?
[22:34] <MythbuntuGuest84> duffrecords, are you talking to me?
[22:35] <duffrecords> yes
[22:36] <tgm4883_laptop> Antharian, "gotcha's?
[22:37] <Antharian> well like 8.10 has a banged up static ip issue
[22:38] <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
[22:39] <Antharian> filthy bugger...
[22:41] <Antharian> well, as long as it has a better behaved network config model.  The 8.10 is nasty.
[22:43] <MythbuntuGuest84> duffrecords, no,  When I go to front end and select setup and try to configure mythstream, it just exits out if the frontend
[22:44] <MythbuntuGuest84> that make sense?
[22:45] <duffrecords> yeah, that does sound like a bug then.  do you have the latest version?  from source?
[22:49] <MythbuntuGuest84> I have 8.10 Direct Alternate download iso.  I know there was a bug in that one with another issue I had.
[22:50] <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...
[22:52] <MythbuntuGuest84> duffrecords, I wasnt abel to find any bugs on it, do you see any?
[22:52] <MythbuntuGuest84> or know of any
[22:53] <duffrecords> I haven't actually used Mythstream before, so I'm not sure
[22:54] <MythbuntuGuest84> Anyone else have any ideas?
[22:54] <Antharian> does 9.04 have the same 8.10 issue with Static IP's ?
[23:03] <stiev3> There are quite a few solutions to 8.10's network manager and that static ip issue.
[23:05] <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
[23:07] <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.
[23:14] <Antharian> Other than the static ip issue, I am quite impressed with the performance of 8.10 over 8.04.
[23:20] <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 :)
[23:21] <Antharian> stiev3: did you end up just taking the network manager out all together?
[23:22] <stiev3> Yeah, I ended up using wicd
[23:23] <stiev3> which from as far as I could tell, wasn't configured to handle two interfaces
[23:24] <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
[23:27] <Paladine> stiev3, thin clients?
[23:27] <Paladine> I just made a myth backend out of a HP thin client :)
[23:29] <hads> There's a performance difference between 8.04 and 8.10?
[23:39] <stiev3> Antharian, I ended up following this tutorial i think: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=926001 after replacing network manager with wicd.
[23:40] <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
[23:45] <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
[23:48]  * rhpot1991 is in love with jumppoints
