[00:15] does anybody else have problems with getting a diskless client to shutdown/reboot? Mine hangs during shutdown, last message: nbd0 receive control failed.

My backend is in my basement... [04:25] ioky, dmesg | grep ivtv [04:26] aegis, I believe so [04:30] that would really help... [04:31] I've no idea how I would go about running a firewire that far otherwise. [04:36] thanks, I will give it a try === styelz is now known as sty|work [07:35] Hi all [07:36] Does mythbuntu support ATI graphics cards? [07:42] hello all [07:44] could someone please assist me? i have myth mythbuntu box setup, but now i want to be able to watch all my content on another ubuntu machine, how can i achieve this? [08:09] helo anyone know much about setting up a mythtv server and client? === sty|work is now known as styelz [08:26] bsusa, i'm headed to bed, but you want to install mythtv-frontend on your other machine then use the password from /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt on your backend [08:27] also, activate the mysql service (or is it mythtv service) on your backend [08:33] i cant vnc into my machine for some reason when i login it comes to a grey screen [08:45] bsusa, you might be vnc-ing into a blank desktop [08:45] if you use x11vnc (which can be configured from the mythbuntu control center), you can view a currently running desktop [09:00] k thats all good === oobe is now known as oobs [09:01] im having trouble running mythtv frontend now i configured it and when i run it, nothing hapens i look in system monitor and its their but sleeping [09:01] why is this? === oobs is now known as oobe [10:24] hi people [10:25] i have an issue running Myth tv on another pc it only shows up in processors, it does open on screen, i dont understand [10:39] anyone here?

[14:05] But when I did the first time or two, it concerned me. Now that I know what it is, it's ok. [14:05] well it could ve then === iamlindaro is now known as oobie [14:08] It's very rhythmic.

[21:25] njbair, pretty much [21:30] where should i look to change the video driver? [21:46] !help [21:46] !help Use ! followed by a topic to get help on the topic (if it exists) example: !logs. Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi [22:01] superm1: do you have a minute? [22:01] tritium, i prefer contentfull pings... [22:02] superm1: sorry ;) [22:04] I'm workign on libhdhomerun and hdhomerun_config_gui. The upstream tarballs unpack with no version string in the directory name, which dh_make doesn't like. Do I simply rename the directory? Or do I need to fix the .tar.gz file so it unpacks with the version string in the directory. [22:05] just rename the directory [22:05] e.g., hdhomerun_config_gui_20081231.orig.tar.gz unpacks to hdhomerun_config_gui [22:05] its usually just a warning when apps complain about that kind of stuff [22:05] i haven't used any starter scripts for NEW packages for ages [22:05] OK, thanks. [22:05] i always copy a nice debhelper7 or cdbs package's packaging [22:05] What do you use? [22:05] and modify to fit [22:06] I see. [22:06] Well, I'm quite rusty at this. [22:06] i just hate how it's quite esoteric [22:06] I'm just getting back to basics. ;) [22:07] mind you that's coming from someone who understands this stuff usually! [22:07] Indeed. [22:07] how do i change video driver settings in mythbuntu 8.10? [22:08] njbair, you'll want to open up mcc and pick the restricted drivers manager generally [22:08] or just start the restricted drivers manager yourself outside mcc [22:08] but if you are looking for specific settings say for your nvidia card, open the nvidia-settings tool [22:09] i don't have nvidia, i have a via mini-itx mobo [22:10] i'm accustomed to using xorg.conf but that's empty in mythbuntu. [22:10] then you dont have a nice gui for doing things with the chrome stuff [22:10] njbair, it shouldn't be "empty", there should at least be a few things in there [22:10] superm1: ick, you're right. It's actually overwhelming. [22:10] nope. empty. [22:10] njbair, try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [22:10] njbair, it will make you one [22:11] heh i tried that this morning and I think i forgot to use sudo. still, i wonder why it was empty. [22:14] superm1: ah, actually, you've packaged the lib already. It just needs to be upgraded to the latest version so I can build the gui. I'll apt-get source it, and check out what you did. [22:15] njbair, it could be an installer bug possibly depending on what you selected [22:16] tritium, yeah you can do your first MOTU upload again to upgrade the library in jaunty then too :) [22:16] superm1: will do :) [22:19] well i appreciate the help. google was a dead end on this one. you guys do great work, btw. [22:24] njbair, glad to help. if you could identify what scenario caused this, i seem to recall some other people having similar problems [22:24] do you by chance remember the options you picked in the installer? [22:38] superm1: i used the alternate cd, that's probably the most unique thing i did. everything else was pretty much stock. i'll run the install again on a vm and see if the same thing happens. if i find something, where should i post it? [22:42] oh alternate cd. [22:42] its not worth your trouble [22:42] we ditched the alternate cd for 9.04 [22:42] getting it to do things we wanted was difficult, hard to maintain, and on and on [22:44] superm1: mythbuntu ditched it, or ubuntu as well? [22:46] just mythbuntu [22:46] ah, ok [22:48] superm1: built successfull in jaunty pbuilder [22:49] Installed and verified that it works on intrepid. [22:51] tritium, sweet [22:51] superm1: would you like to review it? [22:51] tritium, realistically about the alternates, they have a low take rate, and if your graphics dont work on the live disk, why would they work on the alternate these days [22:52] tritium, this is libhdhomerun, or the gui? [22:52] if it's libhdhomerun, just go ahead and upload it [22:52] superm1: this is the updated libhdhomerun [22:52] if it's the gui, put it on REVU and i'll take a look later [22:52] I don't believe I can upload any longer. [22:52] cant you reactivate your account? [22:52] i thought all motu's could [22:52] Let me see what I can do. [22:53] I think I'd have to email the MOTU council, get approved again. [22:54] usually it's just on the LP page [22:55] I let it expire, but I'll try. [23:01] superm1: looks like I can't reactivate without team administrator (MOTU Council or Ubuntu Technical Board) approval [23:01] tritium, oh you must have been deactivated before the transition then [23:01] there was a new team made that all MOTUs can enter and leave at will (from what i understand) [23:02] superm1: I wasn't deactivated. I expired on 2008-08-09. [23:03] oh. well send an email to motu-council then. if you dont get added in again in a day or two, i'll sponsor the upload for you k? [23:03] Sure, thanks! [23:30] Hey, I've got an odd question/issue. I've installed Mythbuntu 8.10, and when the system reboots, Firefox and console both open. I can't see where they're loading from (nothing in crontab, inittab is blank, nothing in /etc/rc*....any ideas where else I can look? [23:31] Everything works just fine (although I've got to close the browser, or alt-tab to the myth frontend), I'd just like to not have to grab a keyboard every time I have to reboot the box
