[01:29] <duffrecords> I've finally configured my myth box to the point I can watch ATSC channels, with occasional hiccups when there's a lot of motion happening.  I read that XvMC smooths that out quite a bit, but I can't enable it because of this error: xdpyinfo: unable to open display "".
[01:30] <duffrecords> I tried setting the $DISPLAY variable to localhost:0 but that didn't help
[01:31] <rhpot1991> duffrecords: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/XvMC
[01:34] <duffrecords> rhpot1991: that's the guide I was following.  I'm re-reading it to see if there's something I missed
[01:41] <duffrecords> I had the absolute path to the XvMC library in /etc/X11/XvMCConfig.  maybe that was it
[01:41] <duffrecords> rebooting...
[01:50] <quinten> hi all
 Hello quinten!
[01:50] <quinten> i'm trying to enable a static ip configuration
[01:51] <quinten> i noticed that network-manager was running, which i believe only loads network when the user logs in to the desktop?
[01:51] <quinten> can i safely uninstall that? if so, what's the default network configuration in mythbuntu 8.10?
[01:53] <duffrecords> rhpot1991: the XvMC extension loaded and I configured it in the playback profile.  but now the livetv screen is blue and the CPU maxed out so I had to kill the frontend over ssh
[01:56] <duffrecords> same thing happens with xvmc-blit and opengl
[01:57] <Shadow_M> what vid card
[01:57] <duffrecords> NVIDIA GeForce 5500 FX
[01:59] <Shadow_M> are you trying to watch hd when it maxes out
[01:59] <Shadow_M> and are you using the glx drivers
[02:02] <duffrecords> it's a x.1 channel.  let me restart it with a different setting to check if it's HD or SD.  I'm using nvidia-glx-new-envy
[02:03] <Shadow_M> hmm i would try to avoid envy but thats me
[02:03] <Shadow_M> is your cpu dual or single core
[02:04] <duffrecords> single.  yeah, I know.  usually I install the nvidia driver manually but I was feeling lazy this time
[02:05] <Shadow_M> ah alright well if you are trying to watch hd it might not work too well
[02:05] <Shadow_M> i am pretty sure its recommended to use a dual core try another channel
[02:05] <duffrecords> yeah, that was an HD channel.  let me try XvMC with a SD one
[02:06] <Shadow_M> is it all the channels giving you an issue
[02:07] <duffrecords> SD has a blue screen too
[02:07] <rhpot1991> duffrecords: are you on intrepid?
[02:07] <Shadow_M> hmm can you just use xv?
[02:07] <duffrecords> but if I use libmpeg2 it ok, except for a hiccup every few seconds
[02:07] <duffrecords> hardy
[02:08] <rhpot1991> mythtv 0.21 then?
[02:08] <rhpot1991> errr 0.20.1
[02:08] <duffrecords> I try to avoid new Ubuntu releases until they've been out for several months.  they're full of surprises in the beginning
[02:08] <rhpot1991> dpkg -l mythtv-frontend |grep ^ii
[02:11] <duffrecords> is that parameter an i or L?
[02:12] <tgm4883_laptop> L
[02:13] <duffrecords> 0.21.0+fixes18207-0ubuntu4~hardy1
[02:13] <duffrecords> I stayed with Hardy because it has LTS
[02:14] <tgm4883_laptop> not a problem
[02:14] <tgm4883_laptop> no weekly builds though?
[02:14] <duffrecords> mythtv build?
[02:14] <tgm4883_laptop> yea
[02:14] <duffrecords> no, just the one from the repo
[02:14] <duffrecords> maybe I should do that
[02:15] <tgm4883_laptop> perhaps, i'm not sure what your original problem was though
[02:15] <rhpot1991> I ask cause in 0.21 they have playback profiles
[02:15] <rhpot1991> so different video gets different settings
[02:15] <rhpot1991> might be a problem with your playback profile
[02:15] <tgm4883_laptop> weekly builds are made from the -fixes branch
[02:15] <rhpot1991> IIRC cpu-- breaks a lot
[02:16] <duffrecords> do they still use playback profiles in the newer versions
[02:16] <rhpot1991> yes
[02:16] <rhpot1991> playback profiles are really really really nice
[02:16] <rhpot1991> but its not like the old version where you just say xvmc and everything uses it
[02:17] <duffrecords> right, you can make a set of rules depending on what kind of video it is
[02:18] <duffrecords> I was testing out a simple custom profile because the default ones aren't efficient enough with my hardware
[02:18] <rhpot1991> dunno about envy, but to enable XvMC all you normally need to do is put libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1
[02:18] <rhpot1991>  in /etc/X11/XvMCConfig
[02:18] <duffrecords> did that
[02:18] <duffrecords> the xorg log says it loaded that extension
[02:19] <duffrecords> but xdpyinfo still says unable to open display "".
[02:19] <duffrecords> so I was wondering if that had something to do with it
[02:20] <rhpot1991> running that via ssh?
[02:21] <duffrecords> yeah.  oh, that's right.  I forgot about that
[02:21] <duffrecords> duh
[02:22] <duffrecords> ok, XvMC is listed in xdpyinfo
[02:22] <duffrecords> I guess a recent build would be the next step
[02:24] <rhpot1991> I'd think its prob a problem with them envy drivers you are using
[02:25] <duffrecords> is the envy driver actually different?  I thought it was just a script that automates the installation
[02:31] <Shadow_M> they have been known to cause issues before
[03:16] <duffrecords> I got rid of the envy driver and installed the nvidia one manually, but I still can't use the XvMC extension.  instead of a blue screen, it's black this time
[03:16] <duffrecords> I'll put the output in pastebin in a sec
[03:25] <duffrecords> http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/d4d1c2b8b
[03:25] <duffrecords> http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/d6e4daf27
[03:50] <phunyguy> hey guys..
[03:50] <phunyguy> is there a line to add or uncomment to add the latest nvidia drivers to aptitude?
[03:50] <phunyguy> right now i am stuck at 177
[03:50] <phunyguy> and i know there are newer ones out there
[03:57] <Nifty360> My tuners look to be up and running, but they will not record. They were working up until about 4 days ago.  The main tuner is a PVR-150 the other is a pinnacle PCTV.  Thanks for the help.
[03:58] <Nifty360> Oh, yeah, running mythbuntu 8.10.
[04:03] <Nifty360> Not too sure what other info is needed, ask and I will gladly find out for you.
[04:31] <dashcloud> Nifty360: I'm not really sure what I can do, but since I use a pvr-250, I can try a little
[04:32] <dashcloud> can you pastebin the section from dmesg where it mentions IVTV?
[04:35] <Nifty360> Wow, that has alot of info, any way to narrow the search?
[04:37] <Nifty360> never actually used pastebin before.
[04:37] <dashcloud> there's a clearly marked section that says IVTV Start, and IVTV End
[04:38] <dashcloud> if you do dmesg |less , it will let you step through all the output on the screen
[04:39] <dashcloud> you can also then use /IVTV to find (hopefully) the block where it mentions your card
[04:40] <Nifty360> right that part, I found it.
[04:40] <Nifty360> pastebin.com?
[04:41] <Nifty360> it is a little long, I have a third tuner that isn't fully setup yet.
[04:42] <Nifty360> its under nifty360 on pastebin.com
[04:43] <hads> Nifty360: It's customary to paste the link in the channel
[04:44] <Nifty360> right.
[04:44] <Nifty360> http://pastebin.com/d13e68ce2
[04:45] <hads> Haha nice error message
[04:45] <dashcloud> yeah
[04:46] <Nifty360> thanks, I worked really hard at getting it.
[04:46] <hads> I mean on line 56 of the paste
[04:46] <hads> If you follow those instructions from there down that may help.
[04:47] <Nifty360> I tried that before with that card, with no luck.
[04:48] <Nifty360> that is currently an unused card, I should just take it out of the box.
[04:49] <Nifty360> it was a cheap sabrent purchased on woot.  I never expected too much from it.
[04:49] <dashcloud> Nifty360: if you do figure that out, please post somewhere with the details on how you did it.
[04:50] <dashcloud> your other card appears to be loading fine
[04:50] <Nifty360> I plan on it. Just don't want to attempt that right now. Just want the other two working.
[04:52] <Nifty360> the hauppage and pinnacle cards load and are "ready to record" according mythtv info, just nothing actually starts the recording process.
[04:52] <Nifty360> Like right now, one of them should be recording lost, but I got nothing.
[04:53] <dashcloud> okay- first make sure you have v4l2-ctl installed (can't remember the package name)
[04:53] <hads> !logs
[04:53] <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.
[05:01] <Nifty360> I shall look for it.
[05:03] <Nifty360> ivtv-utils
[05:03] <Nifty360> right?
[05:04] <dashcloud> sounds right
[05:04] <Nifty360> installing now.
[05:16] <dashcloud> you'll want try capturing something from your card with cat /dev/video0 >test.mpg (replace if you want to test a different card- 0 is card 1)
[05:16] <dashcloud> if that doesn't work, hop on over to the #v4l channel (or the mailing list) and ask them for help
[05:17] <dashcloud> v4l2-ctl lets you access every feature of your card, and will let you change the audio & video inputs (plus any outputs the card may have)- mythtv normally does all this for you
[05:19] <dashcloud> another thing to check is if your cards need firmware (check the mythtv wiki for that), make sure it can be found
[05:20] <dashcloud> if all of these work, and mythtv still doesn't work, I'm not really sure what to tell you then
[05:24] <duffrecords> hey, what's a "frame CRC mismatch"?
[05:55] <tritium> Hmm, fresh mythfilldatabase, and still only data for today's programming.  All future days list "NO DATA"
[05:56] <tritium> I even unchecked "useonairguide" for all channels through mythweb interfaces.
[06:26] <Nifty360> ok, don't think any of that worked.
[06:27] <Nifty360> when I try to scan for channels in mythtv setup, mythtv setup crashes out and asks me to run mythfilldatabase as if I backed out of it.
[06:50] <Nifty360> here is the pastebin link for my logs:  http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/f1fcb6455
[12:39] <slaine_> Hey guys
[12:40] <slaine_> I've got a PVR-500 analogue card setup with myth, recording my cable TV
[12:40] <slaine_> all works great
[12:40] <slaine_> I've got an idea for a STB for my bedroom and was going to setup RTSP streaming on the combined frontend/backend
[12:41] <slaine_> What I'm wonderings, will MythFrontend play back the mpg files if I change the format of them from Program Streams to Transport Streams
[14:04] <dashcloud> I think so
[14:09] <slaine_> I guess I'll just check it out later
[14:37] <Lokiase> hello, can someone help me to config my ati remote wonder, I did all the steps in the wiki but it doesnt work... please help, i am a bit noob in ubuntu....
[14:39] <mycosys> hi guys :) just installed mythbuntu on an ol deskproEN (i815) with a U3100mini and 512MB. Whenever i try to play anything in myth i get a blue screen, but audio. VLC and Gstreamer crash when i try to play dvd. any clues? Worked OK with my old aanlog tuner + knopmyth, but just didnt have the kick for live with analog.
[14:41] <mycosys> Sorry - should add mackine has p3-866 and is merrily memtesting atm - 2 passes good.
[14:42] <slaine_> Can VLC and Gstreamer play anything at all ?
[14:42] <Lokiase> the support in this channel is close to 0 ....
[14:43] <mycosys> Cnat remember the name of the player - but it fetched and played from utube fine
[14:43] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: not a good way to get help
[14:43] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: result is the same
[14:44] <rhpot1991> 2 things
[14:44] <rhpot1991> Most people are here because they like to help the community, not because they are payed to do so, they come and check from time to time but aren't always paying attention
[14:44] <slaine_> mycosys, well, I'd suggest getting some mpgs to test vlc and or gstreamer to make sure that you can play correctly
[14:45] <rhpot1991> It is hard to get hardware help in here, what do you think the odds are that someone out of the 55 people in here have the same remote you have?
[14:45] <mycosys> will try
[14:45] <rhpot1991> couple that with the fact that a good portion of those people are idling and your results will not be very good
[14:45] <slaine_> There's a bunch of stuff required to get linux playing DVD, but assuming you can play locally stored mpeg files then it's just a case of getting the nitty gritty of dvd playback sorted, plenty of wiki entries on how to do that too btw
[14:45] <rhpot1991> !forums | Lokiase
[14:45] <Zinn> Lokiase: The Mythbuntu forums are located at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=301.  If you aren't getting a timely response here, there are lots of very active individuals there that may be able to help.
[14:45] <rhpot1991> your best bet is to ask about hardware in there, unless its something very very common
[14:46] <Lokiase> my remote worked, I do blacklist, and now it doesn't... and I just followed the wiki ...
[14:46] <rhpot1991> did you blacklist the modules it needs?
[14:46] <rhpot1991> cause that will do it
[14:47] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: wich are needed?
[14:47] <rhpot1991> dunno, I don't have that hardware
[14:47] <Lokiase> I blacklisted lirc atiusb
[14:47] <rhpot1991> I'd bet both of them
[14:47] <Lokiase> both?
[14:47] <rhpot1991> do you know what blacklisting modules does?
[14:48] <Lokiase> not really
[14:48] <rhpot1991> basically turns them off
[14:48] <rhpot1991> why are you blacklisting them in the first place?
[14:48] <rhpot1991> link me to the wiki you were following
[14:49] <Lokiase> http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/ATI_Remote_Wonder
[14:49] <rhpot1991> ok so did you do lirc_atiusb?
[14:49] <rhpot1991> or did you typo above?
[14:50] <Lokiase> I opened  modprobe blacklist file
[14:50] <Lokiase> and added blacklist lirc_atiusb
[14:51] <rhpot1991> there was no option for ATI in MCC?
[14:51] <Lokiase> MCC?
[14:51] <rhpot1991> mythbuntu-control-centre
[14:51] <Lokiase> their was, but not the one I have
[14:51] <rhpot1991> did you try it first?
[14:51] <Lokiase> i did but the buttons werent correct
[14:52] <rhpot1991> did any of them work?
[14:52] <Lokiase> but the strange thing is, everything went fine, when i teted with irw everthing was wonderfull, I did the reboot and nothing
[14:52] <Lokiase> tested*
[14:52] <rhpot1991> ok, with MCC or with what you followed with the wiki?
[14:53] <Lokiase> wiki
[14:53] <Lokiase> I think the prob is, when I do lsmod | grep -i ati, nothing appears and the wiki says it should
[14:54] <Lokiase> but I don't know how to solve it
[14:54] <mycosys> hey - mplayer, vlc and totem all handled the test mpg and wmv i keep on my handheld. So the isue is probably Xv/XVMC?
[14:54] <mycosys> have the restricted codecs installed
[14:54] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: try unplugging the usb and plugging it back in?
[14:54] <slaine_> mplayer should be able to playback the mpeg with XvMC output
[14:54] <slaine_> one of the vo parameters
[14:54] <rhpot1991> mycosys: nvidia?
[14:55] <mycosys> i815 as i said
[14:55] <mycosys> the chip xvmc was first made for
[14:55] <rhpot1991> I don't know intel xvmc, might want to take a look at this: i815
[14:55] <rhpot1991> grrr
[14:55] <rhpot1991> http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/XvMC
[14:55] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: unplugging doesnt sove
[14:56] <slaine_> what about modprobe'ling the lirc_atiusb
[14:56] <slaine_> sudo modprobe -a <module name>
[14:56] <mycosys> which says XVMC is fine on i815
[14:56] <rhpot1991> I still wonder why you are blacklisting that
[14:57] <rhpot1991> if modprobing it works then you need to pull that from the blacklist
[14:57] <slaine_> mycosys: could mplayer use it as a vout when you tested with the mpeg file ?
[14:57] <rhpot1991> I think you need to restart lirc after modprobing as well
[14:57] <slaine_> nod
[14:57] <mycosys> didnt check
[14:57] <slaine_> mycosys: give it a shot
[14:57] <mycosys> for 2am poerson - how do i get it to?
[14:57] <slaine_> it'll tell you if it's working
[14:57] <mycosys> *person
[14:58] <slaine_> google for mplayer xvmc ?
[14:58] <rhpot1991> mycosys: for nvidia you used to have to enable it yourself, dunno if intel is the same
[14:58] <slaine_> something like
[14:58] <slaine_> mplayer -vo xvmc <filename>
[14:58] <slaine_> but I don't use mplayer that often so I could be wrong
[14:58] <mycosys> think i will hav at it in the morning - finally lagging
[14:59] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: forum posts seem to say that blacklisting that is unneeded
[14:59] <rhpot1991> you'd normally only blacklist if that module was interfering and you needed a different one
[15:01] <rhpot1991> I really think thats a typo, cause in the suse guide they blacklist ati_remote not lirc_atiusb
[15:01] <rhpot1991> and the ubuntu one is based of the suse one
[15:02] <mycosys> thanks guys btw :)
[15:04] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: ok thankx, i will try it
[15:05] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: its a pretty easy check, just remove the blacklist and reboot
[15:05] <rhpot1991> if that works I'd update the wiki
[15:05] <slaine_> reboot, sheesh, what is this, Windows 95
[15:05] <slaine_> just do the modprobe and restart lircd
[15:06] <rhpot1991> positive it will modprove with it still in the blacklist?
[15:06] <rhpot1991> modprobe*
[15:09] <slaine_> no it won't, I should have specified after removing it from the blacklist
[15:15] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: do you know how I can make subtitles show with my remote??
[15:16] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: figure out what the button is and add an entry to ~/lirc/mythtv
[15:16] <rhpot1991> ~/.lirc/mythtv
[15:16]  * rhpot1991 can't type today
[15:18] <rhpot1991> looks like there is no key assigned to subtitles, so you will need to do that
[15:31] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: I removed the blacklist and still not better
[15:32] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: did you either modprobe lirc_atiusb or reboot?
[15:33] <rhpot1991> and if you modprobed did you restart lirc?
[15:33] <Lokiase> I did a reboot
[15:34] <Lokiase> how do I restart lirc?
[15:34] <rhpot1991> shouldn't be needed if you rebooted
[15:34] <slaine_> does lsmod show the module ?
[15:34] <rhpot1991> what does lsmod | grep -i ati show
[15:35] <Lokiase> nothing
[15:35] <Lokiase> empty
[15:42] <Lokiase> srr guys, had pc crash, can you still help me with the remote prob?
[15:43] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: unplug and plug the usb in and then lsmod again
[15:43] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: empty...
[15:44] <Lokiase> and no lines in the blacklistfile anymore...
[15:45] <rhpot1991> ok do sudo modprobe lirc_atiusb
[15:45] <rhpot1991> then lsmod again
[15:45] <Lokiase> now there are things
[15:45] <Lokiase> lirc_atiusb, lirc_dev and usbcore
[15:46] <rhpot1991> ok now sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart
[15:46] <rhpot1991> and then test with irw
[15:46] <Lokiase> three times OK
[15:46] <rhpot1991> huh?
[15:47] <Lokiase> stopping .... OK        loading modules.... OK            starting....OK
[15:47] <rhpot1991> ya thats good
[15:49] <Lokiase> and now?
[15:50] <rhpot1991> run irw
[15:50] <rhpot1991> and hit buttons on the remote
[15:50] <Lokiase> connection refused
[15:53] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: it shows: connect: connection refused when I typ irw
[15:56] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: read http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/ATI_Remote_Wonder did I need to copy the text below in step 7 and 8 and paste it under the other info in the files or did i to replace the file completely?
[15:58] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: replacing completely, though 8 you could get away with appending but you will leave uselss junk behind that will never be used
[15:59] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: so remove older info in the files and just past ONLY the info that is in the examples below?
[15:59] <rhpot1991> yep, might want to back up the old
[16:00] <rhpot1991> dunno if you ever answered me, but when you setup with MCC did any buttons work?
[16:01] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: any buttons worked yes, but not all
[16:01] <rhpot1991> I'd say its easier to just get that back up and fix your buttons, but your call
[16:01] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: in my lircd.conf file their is only one thing : include /usr/share/lirc/remotes/atiusb/lircd.conf.atilibusb , do I remove this ?
[16:01] <rhpot1991> may as well try to finish this up first
[16:02] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: yep, thats pointing at the one from MCC
[16:04] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: and the mythtv-file I also replace completely?
[16:04] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: ~/.lirc/mythtv ?
[16:05] <Lokiase> yes
[16:05] <rhpot1991> yep
[16:05] <Lokiase> So remove all the info from that file and copy paste the 'example of a lircrc" in it?
[16:06] <rhpot1991> yep
[16:06] <rhpot1991> here is what those files are
[16:06] <rhpot1991> lircd.conf is a config of your buttons on your remote
[16:08] <rhpot1991> lircrc aka .lirc/mythtv translates the buttons from lircd.conf to keystrokes which mythtv uses to do specific things
[16:09] <Lokiase> is their a command in nano to clear the whole file in once? i'm pressing my delete-button for minutes now to clear the file

[16:10] <Lokiase> rhpot
[16:10] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: what do I select in MCC now?
[16:10] <rhpot1991> nothing if you are doing those by hand
[16:10] <Lokiase> explain?
[16:11] <Lokiase> rhpot
[16:11] <Lokiase> I replaced the files, but when I do restart lirc, it now gives 2 fails...
[16:13] <rhpot1991> if you are doing all this by hand then you should prob select "none" in MCC
[16:13] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: please help, I did modprobe and lirc restart and have a fail...
[16:14] <rhpot1991> alternatively you could choose custom and point it at the config and tell it lirc_atiusb
[16:14] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: any messages?
[16:14] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: irw doesnt work
[16:18] <Lokiase> help.
 Lokiase: any messages?
[16:18] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: messages?
[16:19] <rhpot1991> when you tried to restart lirc
[16:21] <Lokiase> rhpot
[16:21] <Lokiase> when I do all the steps in the hyperlink, everyting goes fine untill I do /etc/init.d/lirc restart....
[16:21] <Lokiase> ok
[16:22] <Lokiase> sudo ;)
[16:23] <Lokiase> rhpot
[16:24] <Lokiase> everyting goes fine now, exept irw, the command works, but nothing when I press a button
[16:26] <rhpot1991> Lokiase: try to do sudo /etc/init.d/lirc reload
[16:26] <rhpot1991> then restart again, then irw
[16:26] <rhpot1991> restart lirc that is
[16:27] <rhpot1991> I'm not sure it matters as I think restart reloads, but better to check
[16:28] <Lokiase> ok rhpot1991 i'm back at 0... lsmod gives me nothing...
[16:28] <Lokiase> please repeat the steps with me please
[16:29] <rhpot1991> ok, lets start here, in MCC do you have it as "none" now?
[16:30] <Lokiase> yes
[16:30] <Lokiase> and now I did modprobe lirc_atiusb
[16:30] <rhpot1991> now sudo modprobe lirc_atiusb
[16:30] <rhpot1991> need a sudo on that
[16:30] <Lokiase> and lsmod | grep -i ati
[16:30] <Lokiase> and the 3 lines discribed in the wikilink are back :)
[16:30] <Lokiase> so far so good
[16:31] <rhpot1991> ok now sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart
[16:31] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: now I'm gonna check the two files again
[16:31] <rhpot1991> ok
[16:32] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: restart OK
[16:32] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: files OK
[16:34] <rhpot1991> now irw should give you something hopefully
[16:34] <Lokiase> rhpot
[16:34] <Lokiase> dont i need to do the ps -ef | grep lircd?
[16:35] <rhpot1991> if it says it restarted ok then you shouldn't need to
[16:35] <rhpot1991> thats just checking that lircd is running
[16:35] <rhpot1991> feel free to if you want though
[16:36] <Lokiase> OK, now the irw
[16:36] <Lokiase> nothing...
[16:38] <rhpot1991> it runs and doesn't fail though?
[16:38] <Lokiase> no fail, it runs but no reaction when i press a key
[16:39] <rhpot1991> try multiple keys?
[16:39] <Lokiase> i did
[16:40] <rhpot1991> do this: ls /dev/lirc*
[16:40] <rhpot1991> what does that return?
[16:41] <Lokiase> it says: /dev/lirc0   /dev/lircd
[16:42] <rhpot1991> ok lets try this:
[16:42] <rhpot1991> sudo /etc/init.d/lirc stop
[16:42] <rhpot1991> sudo mode2 -d /dev/lirc0 -r
[16:42] <rhpot1991> then hit some buttons
[16:43] <Lokiase> stop doesn't work: give me 'fail"
[16:43] <rhpot1991> anything more specific than that?
[16:45] <Lokiase> no, it just does: stopping remote control daemon(s): LIRC           [fail]
[16:45] <rhpot1991> ok run ps -ef | grep lircd
[16:46] <rhpot1991> see if its even running, might not be
[16:47] <Lokiase> one return: 1000       7265   6939   0  17:46  pts/0     00:00:00 grep lircd
[16:48] <rhpot1991> ok so just do the mode2 line
[16:49] <Lokiase> "invalid option -- 'r'"
[16:50] <rhpot1991> mode2 --raw -d /dev/lirc0
[16:50]  * rhpot1991 is guessing at the command
[16:50] <rhpot1991> its something like that
[16:50] <rhpot1991> sudo that too
[16:50] <Lokiase> "unrecognized option --raw"
[16:51] <rhpot1991> try to leave it off I guess
[16:51] <Lokiase> code: 0x14e30e0000
[16:51] <rhpot1991> thats when you hit a key?
[16:52] <Lokiase> no
[16:52] <Lokiase> that was the beginning
[16:52] <Lokiase> when I hit a key
[16:52] <Lokiase> always 2 new lines come
[16:52] <rhpot1991> ok good
[16:52] <rhpot1991> that means your configs are the issue I think
[16:52] <rhpot1991> you may need to add your propper info into /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
[16:53] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: ?
[16:53] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: dont understand, srr :)
[16:55] <rhpot1991> /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
[16:55] <rhpot1991> should have the propper info for your device
[16:56] <rhpot1991> so REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_atiusb" or something like that
[16:57] <rhpot1991> most other things should be ok as defaults
[16:57] <rhpot1991> remember when I said it would be easier to use MCC and adjust the buttons about 3 hours ago?  :)
[16:58] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: pc crash, sorry
[16:59] <Lokiase> rhpot1991: you told me something bout harware?

[18:35] <superm1> Lokiase, you are best off making a post at the forum right now if no one is around to help in here
[18:35] <tgm4883_laptop> +1
[18:36] <Lokiase> I hope that rhpot1991 returns
[18:36] <mycosys1> or even try googling lirc.conf
[19:12] <Lokiase> nobody who can help me with my remote?
[19:15] <MythbuntuGuest71> I am having a heck of a time trying to figure out how to transfer the tons of ripped DVD and music media that I have accumulated on my windows boxes overh the years.  I have JUST recently installed mythbuntu on a box and wish to use as my main media server.  I am brand new to linux as well.  I have tried many things I've googled with little luck so far.  Any help would be appreciated
[19:17] <tgm4883_laptop> whoops, browsed away
[19:17] <tgm4883_laptop> welcome backk
[19:17] <MythbuntuGuest78> I was the one who asked the ? about file xfer
[19:20] <Shadow_M> hey superm1 you here my samba issue is back
[19:20] <Lokiase> nobody with remote-knowledge?
[19:22] <Shadow_M> whats wrrong with the remote
[19:23] <Shadow_M> Lokiase, whats wrong with the remote
[19:23] <tgm4883_laptop> Lokiase, you can get away with reasking your question unprovoked about every 4 hours providing there have been some channel joins in between
[19:24] <tgm4883_laptop> But if you keep asking the same question every 10 minutes, i'll ban you
[19:25] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: I followed the ati remote wiki for mythbuntu, but now it doesn't work at all, so I want to go back to the manufact. settings...
[19:25] <Shadow_M> hmm in terminal type irw
[19:26] <Shadow_M> and press keys on the remote
[19:26] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: irw doesn't give a thing
[19:26] <Shadow_M> with irw sitting there you have to push buttons with the remote directed to the connected receiver
[19:27] <Lokiase> when i press the remote, nothing happens
[19:27] <Shadow_M> then thats a config issue make sure youn read the wiki right
[19:28] <Shadow_M> you mah of had to reload irw to use the new config file
[19:28] <Lokiase> I did it ten times, but still not solved
[19:28] <Lokiase> i restarted the pc, everything, nothing helps
[19:29] <Shadow_M> did you try looking at the mythtv wiki
[19:29] <Lokiase> yes
[19:30] <Shadow_M> are the batteries still good
[19:30] <Lokiase> yes, they are new
[19:30] <Lokiase> I changed some files, and now it doesnt work
[19:31] <Shadow_M> well change them back
[19:31] <Lokiase> I did, I think
[19:31] <Shadow_M> yeah if you did it would be detecting something right now irw which listens to input from your reciever gets nothing
[19:32] <Lokiase> so were is the fault?
[19:32] <Shadow_M> in the files you changed
[19:33] <Lokiase> i changed tem back
[19:33] <Shadow_M> are you sure you changed everything you still broke something
[19:33] <Lokiase> i'm pretty sure
[19:37] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: i changed hardware.conf, /lirc/mythtv, lircd.conf ...
[19:39] <Shadow_M> why dont you try using the mythbuntu control center
[19:39] <Lokiase> I do
[19:40] <Lokiase> but it doesn't seems to work anymore
[19:41] <Shadow_M> hmm it could be that the driver for your receiver isnt being loaded check dmesg
[19:44] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: don't know how to find it in dmesg
[19:45] <Shadow_M> type in dmesg in terminal and sift through the output for something  related to ati remote
[19:48] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: nope
[19:49] <Shadow_M> hmm dont know but thats def not good
[19:49] <Shadow_M> i would review everything you did no mater hwo small
[19:50] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: i allready did
[19:50] <Shadow_M> then sorry just going to have to wait for someone that knows more than i
[19:50] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: frustrating, waiting for houres
[19:51] <Shadow_M> yeah well you can also look in forums we have all been there these chans are logged
[20:06] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: cant believe there is nobody who can solve my prob
[20:07] <Shadow_M> i am sure there is eventually but you also need to be patient
[20:08] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: i started with this issue this afternoon, you can imagine it freaks me out by now
[20:11] <Shadow_M> i guess i have had much worse happen if you dont want to wait for someone to help you are fully able to try and fix it yourself
[20:11] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: tried a lot, nothing helps, just weird that restoring my files to fact-settings, didn't solve the prob
[20:12] <Shadow_M> there is still something off
[20:13] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: rhpot1991 gave me command to do, i didn't understand the commands, just did them, and he doenst answer anymore
[20:14] <MythbuntuGuest78> sorry you're having such a hard time of it Lokiase.  I truly feel your pain man...
[20:14] <Lokiase> MythbuntuGuest78: lol, don't laugh ;)
[20:14] <MythbuntuGuest78> and how do I log into this chat as a real person, not a guest
[20:15] <MythbuntuGuest78> oh no.  I wasn't laughing at all.  I'm having newbie issues left and right myself,.
[20:15] <Lokiase> MythbuntuGuest78: depends on wich client you are using
[20:15] <MythbuntuGuest78> came in through the chat.  that's prob why.  I don't have an actual IRC client
[20:16] <Shadow_M> what chat
[20:16] <Lokiase> MythbuntuGuest78: try '/nick yournick'
[20:17] <MythbuntuGuest78> through muthbuntu support.  the java based irc client.  guess I should get me a real client
[20:17] <Lokiase> bnicely: told you ;)
[20:17] <bnicely> tks shadow_m, that worked
[20:18] <Shadow_M> wasnt me
[20:18] <bnicely> whoops, lokiase I meant
[20:18] <Lokiase> ;)
[20:18] <Lokiase> now my remote issue :p
[20:23] <Lokiase> Shadow_M: so when the ati remote is not in that list, ist not loaded, recognized by the system?
[20:23] <Shadow_M> yeah esp that irw doesnt see anything
[20:24] <Lokiase> damn, everbody knows the prob, nobody the solution
[20:24] <Zinn> Lokiase: Please watch your language.
[20:24] <Lokiase> Zinn: language? :s
[20:46] <Lokiase> rhpot1991:
[20:46] <Lokiase> ?
[20:49] <erb_> i use the /etc/network/interfaces file to do my wi-fi on my laptop but i noticed that when the laptop comes out of hibernation it doesnt tell the wi-fi to come back online
[20:49] <erb_> and short of rebooting i'm unsure of how to wake the wi-fi back up
[20:52] <Guest78429> crap i hate this nickserv stuff
[20:52] <tritium> erb_: then configure your client to automatically identify you
[20:52] <erb_> identify me as what though is what i gotta figure out
[20:52] <erb_> i've been erb on irc since 1993
[20:52] <erb_> just not on freenode
[20:53] <erb_> someone else registered erb unfortunately
[20:53] <erb_> and this one too but at least it doesnt automatically change the nick on me
[20:59] <Lokiase> tritium: no solution please?
[20:59] <tritium> You're asking me for no solution?
[21:00] <Lokiase> tritium: sorry, i ment, do you find me a solution please
[21:01] <bnicely> decided to do something fruitful today.  switching my 9 year old son's box over to xbuntu
[21:01] <tritium> Lokiase: no, I suggest you read those two URLs ActionParsnip gave you.
[21:02] <Lokiase> tritium: I did but I dont understand a word of it
[21:02] <tritium> Lokiase: sorry
[21:02] <Lokiase> tritium: why?
[22:09] <tritium> OK, I've gone through the "NO DATA" troubleshooting guide here: http://forums.schedulesdirect.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=295, and verified via freeguide and gnome ontv applet that my schedules direct data is good.  So, the "NO DATA" in the mythtv guide and mythweb must be a myth-specific issue.
[22:10] <tritium> I'm currently running mythfilldatabase --refresh-all now.
[22:10] <tritium> If that fails to update my listings, then what?
[22:14] <tritium> OK, mythfilldatabase --refesh-all *failed*!  :(
[22:17] <tritium> I've even tried to disable EIT wherever I could, since it appears the little tiny bit of valid listings data was coming from the over-the air channels only.
[22:17] <tritium> This is truly bug-worthy.
[23:29] <tgm4883_laptop> tritium, possible that your XMLID doesn't lineup?
[23:48] <phunyguy> ok, does anyone know how to fix the slow program guide issues....
[23:49] <phunyguy> i am using nvidia geforce 8200 onboard video, and in program guide it pegs my CPU to 100%
[23:49] <phunyguy> i have checked all icons
[23:49] <phunyguy> and tried all deinterlacers...
[23:49] <phunyguy> all video modes...
[23:49] <phunyguy> nothing works.,
[23:49] <phunyguy> it is the X process that peaks.
[23:49] <phunyguy> i have tried 173, 177, and 180 drivers...
[23:50] <phunyguy> been working on this for a week now,.
[23:54] <tgm4883_laptop> out of curiousity, did you try using a lighter weight guide?
[23:56] <tritium> tgm4883_laptop: yes, that was it.  I had to manually enter each and every channel XMLTV ID.
[23:56] <tgm4883_laptop> tritium, yea that sucks when they don't match up right :/
[23:56] <tritium> tgm4883_laptop: ;)
[23:57] <tritium> At least I'm up and running now.
