[00:33] <klb_> hi, I can't start watch tv. When I check the logs I see that it is looking for 1016_2009118162152.mpg in the live directory I set up. I looked in the directory and it is not there, I don't know where it went or why but is there a way for me to regenerate it or have it start a new one?
[00:50] <crodrigues_> Hi. Can someone please tell me how can I use an already xmltv format file available on-line?
[01:20] <perilousapricot> is it possible to use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/WindowsServerNetboot to boot the mythbuntu testing ISOs?
[01:29] <tgm4883> perilousapricot, I don't know if anyone has tried
[01:30] <perilousapricot> tgm4883, I'm finding a lot of tutorials for booting an initrd image, but not a simple iso
[01:38] <lobolife> I'm looking for front-end to watch torrents and dvds. Would mythbuntu be a good solution for this?
[01:52] <perilousapricot> tgm4883, unetbootin is the answer to my previous question
[01:54] <MythbuntuGuest16> Hi Ii'm intrested in RSS feeds from MythWeb. I've read a couple of sites that said I should have that capability with 7.04, but I can't seem to find it...
[01:54] <perilousapricot> what do you mean rss feeds?
[01:56] <MythbuntuGuest16> I'm trying to setup my Zune to download the latest episode of a show when its recoreded through an RSS video feed.
[01:58] <MythbuntuGuest16> Here is what I'm trying to use: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythWebRSS
[02:00] <perilousapricot> one sec, my browser just decided to lock up
[02:00] <perilousapricot> firefox has been doing this a bunch recently :(
[02:00] <MythbuntuGuest16> I've had the same issue, have to tried Google Chrome?
[02:01] <perilousapricot> well, I have firefox plugins that I like
[02:02] <perilousapricot> there's some other plugins
[02:02] <rhpot1991> MythbuntuGuest16: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythExport
[02:02] <perilousapricot> (getting back to the RSS)
[02:02] <rhpot1991> poke at that some
[02:21] <perilousapricot> grrrrr, I wish nvidia would get off their asses and recompile their drivers against the new xorg
[02:24] <perilousapricot> do the open source nv- drivers have XV support?
[06:04] <phunyguy> hello?
[06:16] <ioky> hello, I just get a Hauppauge Wintv HVR 1600 PCI card
[06:16] <ioky> I don't know how to get the remote to work
[06:16] <ioky> it mean be related to the IR receiver
[06:16] <ioky> I am not sure , any idea?
[06:16] <ioky> Thanks
[06:22] <phunyguy> have you looked at any lirc docs?
[06:22] <phunyguy> it would be a good idea to start there, ioky.
[06:24] <ioky> yes, however, I don't really get how it actually work with my remote
[06:25] <phunyguy> then you should format and install windows.
[06:25] <ioky> I don't even know is the IR receiver is supported or not. haha
[06:25] <phunyguy> :)
[06:25] <phunyguy> are you using the reciever that came with the remote?
[06:25] <phunyguy> and you are on mythbuntu?
[06:25] <ioky> yes
[06:26] <phunyguy> well you have to find the correct driver for the reciever
[06:26] <phunyguy> and put it in /etc/lircd/hardware.conf
[06:26] <phunyguy> then find a lircd.conf to match the remote  (codes)
[06:27] <ioky> well, the receiver come with the Card, it is like on board
[06:27] <phunyguy> http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/
[06:28] <phunyguy> if you cant find codes, you need to record your own
[06:28] <ioky> http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/hauppauge/PVR-350.jpg
[06:28] <ioky> this is the remote I have
[06:28] <phunyguy> and if you can't take the time to learn how to do it, then you shouldnt be using linux.
[06:28] <phunyguy> ok.
[06:28] <phunyguy> http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge
[06:28] <ioky> I just not sure the receiver come with the card is actually supported
[06:28] <phunyguy> that is the config file you need
[06:29] <phunyguy> save that as /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
[06:29] <phunyguy> then you have to set up mythtv to use that remote
[06:29] <phunyguy> the config for that is ~/.lirc/mythtv
[06:29] <ioky> Thank you so much
[06:30] <ioky> just one little question
[06:31] <phunyguy> ...
[06:31] <ioky> if the TV turner part of the TV card is supported, is that mean the IR receiver are also supported too?
[06:31] <phunyguy> no.
[06:31] <phunyguy> they may be supported, but it is not insinuated
[06:32] <ioky> thanks for you help
[06:33] <phunyguy> you are welcome.
[06:45] <ioky> Just wondering. How can you tell, is the onboard receiver is working or not?
[06:46] <ioky> *ir receiver
[06:50] <phunyguy> http://www.lirc.org/html/install.html#testing
[06:57] <ioky> I run sudo mode2, as the page said, it output "error opening /dev/lirc" "No Such file or directory"
[06:58] <phunyguy> ok.
[06:59] <phunyguy> try sudo mode2 -d /dev/lirc0
[06:59] <phunyguy> you have to point it to the right device
[07:00] <ioky> same thing happen
[07:01] <phunyguy> then lirc isnt running
[07:01] <phunyguy> sudo service lirc start
[07:02] <phunyguy> ps axf | grep lirc     -  to check and see if process is running
[07:04] <ioky> it said "loading Lirc modules [OK]" and then Starting remote control daemon LIRC [Fail]
[07:13] <ioky> it is loaded now
[07:17] <ioky> however, it still say No Such file or directory
[07:34] <ioky> ps axf | grep lirc return
[07:35] <ioky> 6440 pts /0 s+ 0:00 | \_grep lirc
[07:36] <ioky> 6430 ? s+ 0:00 /usr/sbin/lircd --device =/dev/lirc0
[07:36] <ioky> and mode2 still saying error opening /dev/lirc0, no such file or directory
[14:34] <doodz> Hey peeps... I've running Mythbuntu (surprise) and got a simple question ... I installed it on a 500gig drive and I'm just wondering where the majority of my hard drive space is so that I can copy larger files to there...I just did default install nothing fancy
[14:37] <bogus-> df -h?
[14:38] <doodz> thanks
[14:41] <doodz> so when i type 'df -h' it lists everything.. except the listing only accounts for 150gig of my 500gig..so not sure where the other 350gig is ?
[14:41] <rhpot1991> is that 150g free or total?
[14:42] <doodz> 150gig total .. about 143gig free
[14:43] <superm1> doodz, possible that your BIOS doesnt allow drives past that 147gb barrier?
[14:44] <superm1> doodz, you can check in fdisk what it's recognized as
[14:44] <superm1> or gparted
[14:44] <rhpot1991> could fire up gparted and see what it says
[14:44] <rhpot1991> superm1 beat me to it
[14:44] <superm1> gparted is probably a little easier to use
[14:44] <doodz> I've got a terrabyte drive plugged in via USb and it recognises that
[14:44] <doodz> ok checking out gparted
[14:44] <superm1> well the barrier exists for ide drives normally, i'm not sure about sata - but i'm sure it doesnt exist on USB
[14:45] <doodz> ok gparted lists sda2 as 'extended' and is hoarding all my drive space
[14:47] <doodz> actually.. sda6 (sub tree of sda2) has a size of 453gig with 317gig used and 135gig unused... which doesn't make sense cos the drive basically has a fresh install of everything only
[14:51] <doodz> and 'df -h' says that sda6 is only using up 1.1gig where gparted says it is using 317gig
[14:52]  * doodz cries they stole my hard drive space
[14:59] <doodz> ahh I think I may know why I have a problem
[15:00] <doodz> I installed my system from a backed up image file... the original disk was only 150gig
[15:02] <doodz> is there a way to tell Ubuntu that I have a 500gig instead ?
[15:04] <superm1> doodz, boot into gparted from the live disk. you may be able to adjust that
[15:05] <doodz> ooh ok
[15:05] <doodz> thanks
[15:05] <doodz> ill check it out
[15:05] <superm1> if you can't, then what you'll have to do is recreate your partition table, but i have a bad feeling that won't work properly and maintain you data
[15:05] <superm1> so what you would want to do at that point is create the partitions as normal, and format them.  loop mount your backup image and rsync the files out of it
[15:06] <doodz> ok im not bothered if I lose my data cos i have them backed up in the image file
[15:06] <doodz> is there a way to start from scratch and apply the image file in a smarter way ?
[15:12] <rhpot1991> what data do you have?  Might be easier to just backup the mythtv db do a fresh install then import the db
[15:13] <doodz> well i have other stuff installed other than mythtv...what's the best image program these days ?
[15:15] <doodz> actually think i might be going good... I followed superml's instructioins and have deleted/created partitions to how I want them..and now I will restore xfs image
[21:46] <uriol> hi
[21:47] <uriol> i just installed mythtv and the hard disk is working very hard allways, and i don't know how to stop it
[21:47] <uriol> i have a tdt decoder on an usb stick
[21:48] <uriol> i installed it in order to record tdt channels on the hard disk
[23:21] <aegis> Hey guys, can you install mythbuntu onto an existing ubuntu server?  In other words, can an existing ubuntu server become a mythbuntu server without losing all the custom settings already worked.
[23:21] <tgm4883_laptop> aegis, not sure how well it would work on the server kernel
[23:21] <rhpot1991> IIRC the server kernel is a bad idea
[23:22] <aegis> ugggh...  that sucks.
[23:22] <aegis> I put a lot of work into this server...
[23:23] <hads> Changing kernel isn't hard.
[23:24] <aegis> hads: you mean I could just change the existing kernel and keep my current settings?
[23:25] <hads> Sure, just install linux-image-generic or whatever it's called.
[23:26] <hads> But if you're installing on a server beware that all of X etc. will probably be pulled in.
[23:29] <aegis> so you mean backup xorg.conf
[23:30] <hads> Oh if you're already got X installed etc. then it won't matter. A normal server install wouldn't have X.
[23:31] <aegis> yeah, I have gnome desktop installed and vnc into it...
[23:31] <hads> So just a desktop with a server kernal then :)
[23:32] <aegis> so any recommendations on how I should start going about that?  Burning a mythbuntu CD and trying to install over the existing server?
[23:33] <hads> No, install the generic kernel, reboot into it, remove the server kernel, install mythbuntu-control-centre, and the use that to configure your mythtv stuff.
[23:34] <aegis> hads: sweet... I saw mythbuntu-control-centre in synaptic.  thank you very much.
[23:34] <hads> no probs.
[23:35]  * hads moves conference rooms
[23:36] <aegis> hads: uname -r shows 2.6.26-23-generic
[23:36] <aegis> so am I correct in assuming I am good to go?
[23:48] <hads> aegis: Yes.
[23:48] <hads> So it's not a server at all, just a desktop :)
[23:55] <Batshua> Could someone be so kind as to assist me?  I'm currently fighting with my graphics card, after which I'm going to have to fight with the tv tuner card.
