[00:33] 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] Hi. Can someone please tell me how can I use an already xmltv format file available on-line? === acloseX is now known as acloseX|away === acloseX|away is now known as acloseX [01:20] is it possible to use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/WindowsServerNetboot to boot the mythbuntu testing ISOs? [01:29] perilousapricot, I don't know if anyone has tried [01:30] tgm4883, I'm finding a lot of tutorials for booting an initrd image, but not a simple iso [01:38] I'm looking for front-end to watch torrents and dvds. Would mythbuntu be a good solution for this? [01:52] tgm4883, unetbootin is the answer to my previous question [01:54] 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] what do you mean rss feeds? [01:56] 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] Here is what I'm trying to use: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythWebRSS [02:00] one sec, my browser just decided to lock up [02:00] firefox has been doing this a bunch recently :( [02:00] I've had the same issue, have to tried Google Chrome? [02:01] well, I have firefox plugins that I like [02:02] there's some other plugins [02:02] MythbuntuGuest16: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythExport [02:02] (getting back to the RSS) [02:02] poke at that some [02:21] grrrrr, I wish nvidia would get off their asses and recompile their drivers against the new xorg [02:24] do the open source nv- drivers have XV support? [06:04] hello? [06:16] hello, I just get a Hauppauge Wintv HVR 1600 PCI card [06:16] I don't know how to get the remote to work [06:16] it mean be related to the IR receiver [06:16] I am not sure , any idea? [06:16] Thanks [06:22] have you looked at any lirc docs? [06:22] it would be a good idea to start there, ioky. [06:24] yes, however, I don't really get how it actually work with my remote [06:25] then you should format and install windows. [06:25] I don't even know is the IR receiver is supported or not. haha [06:25] :) [06:25] are you using the reciever that came with the remote? [06:25] and you are on mythbuntu? [06:25] yes [06:26] well you have to find the correct driver for the reciever [06:26] and put it in /etc/lircd/hardware.conf [06:26] then find a lircd.conf to match the remote (codes) [06:27] well, the receiver come with the Card, it is like on board [06:27] http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/ [06:28] if you cant find codes, you need to record your own [06:28] http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/hauppauge/PVR-350.jpg [06:28] this is the remote I have [06:28] and if you can't take the time to learn how to do it, then you shouldnt be using linux. [06:28] ok. [06:28] http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge [06:28] I just not sure the receiver come with the card is actually supported [06:28] that is the config file you need [06:29] save that as /etc/lirc/lircd.conf [06:29] then you have to set up mythtv to use that remote [06:29] the config for that is ~/.lirc/mythtv [06:29] Thank you so much [06:30] just one little question [06:31] ... [06:31] if the TV turner part of the TV card is supported, is that mean the IR receiver are also supported too? [06:31] no. [06:31] they may be supported, but it is not insinuated [06:32] thanks for you help [06:33] you are welcome. [06:45] Just wondering. How can you tell, is the onboard receiver is working or not? [06:46] *ir receiver [06:50] http://www.lirc.org/html/install.html#testing [06:57] I run sudo mode2, as the page said, it output "error opening /dev/lirc" "No Such file or directory" [06:58] ok. [06:59] try sudo mode2 -d /dev/lirc0 [06:59] you have to point it to the right device [07:00] same thing happen [07:01] then lirc isnt running [07:01] sudo service lirc start [07:02] ps axf | grep lirc - to check and see if process is running [07:04] it said "loading Lirc modules [OK]" and then Starting remote control daemon LIRC [Fail] [07:13] it is loaded now [07:17] however, it still say No Such file or directory [07:34] ps axf | grep lirc return [07:35] 6440 pts /0 s+ 0:00 | \_grep lirc [07:36] 6430 ? s+ 0:00 /usr/sbin/lircd --device =/dev/lirc0 [07:36] and mode2 still saying error opening /dev/lirc0, no such file or directory [14:34] 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] df -h? [14:38] thanks [14:41] 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] is that 150g free or total? [14:42] 150gig total .. about 143gig free [14:43] doodz, possible that your BIOS doesnt allow drives past that 147gb barrier? [14:44] doodz, you can check in fdisk what it's recognized as [14:44] or gparted [14:44] could fire up gparted and see what it says [14:44] superm1 beat me to it [14:44] gparted is probably a little easier to use [14:44] I've got a terrabyte drive plugged in via USb and it recognises that [14:44] ok checking out gparted [14:44] 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] ok gparted lists sda2 as 'extended' and is hoarding all my drive space [14:47] 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] 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] ahh I think I may know why I have a problem [15:00] I installed my system from a backed up image file... the original disk was only 150gig [15:02] is there a way to tell Ubuntu that I have a 500gig instead ? [15:04] doodz, boot into gparted from the live disk. you may be able to adjust that [15:05] ooh ok [15:05] thanks [15:05] ill check it out [15:05] 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] 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] ok im not bothered if I lose my data cos i have them backed up in the image file [15:06] is there a way to start from scratch and apply the image file in a smarter way ? [15:12] what data do you have? Might be easier to just backup the mythtv db do a fresh install then import the db [15:13] well i have other stuff installed other than mythtv...what's the best image program these days ? [15:15] 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 === N1X0N is now known as Nixon === _Mazga is now known as Mazga === _Mazga is now known as Mazga [21:46] hi [21:47] i just installed mythtv and the hard disk is working very hard allways, and i don't know how to stop it [21:47] i have a tdt decoder on an usb stick [21:48] i installed it in order to record tdt channels on the hard disk [23:21] 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] aegis, not sure how well it would work on the server kernel [23:21] IIRC the server kernel is a bad idea [23:22] ugggh... that sucks. [23:22] I put a lot of work into this server... [23:23] Changing kernel isn't hard. [23:24] hads: you mean I could just change the existing kernel and keep my current settings? [23:25] Sure, just install linux-image-generic or whatever it's called. [23:26] But if you're installing on a server beware that all of X etc. will probably be pulled in. [23:29] so you mean backup xorg.conf [23:30] Oh if you're already got X installed etc. then it won't matter. A normal server install wouldn't have X. [23:31] yeah, I have gnome desktop installed and vnc into it... [23:31] So just a desktop with a server kernal then :) [23:32] 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] 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] hads: sweet... I saw mythbuntu-control-centre in synaptic. thank you very much. [23:34] no probs. [23:35] * hads moves conference rooms [23:36] hads: uname -r shows 2.6.26-23-generic [23:36] so am I correct in assuming I am good to go? [23:48] aegis: Yes. [23:48] So it's not a server at all, just a desktop :) [23:55] 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.
