bobbob1016I'm having problems with getting my spdif working, I've read to use alsamixer to unmute IEC958, but it only lets me do 00 or MM, no higher volume.  I've tried "speaker-test -c 5" and the front two work, but not center or rears04:29
bobbob1016Any ideas?04:29

tritiumflashplugin-nonfree?04:50
tgm4883_laptopthedarkone, let me check04:50
tritiumIf there are truly no issues left, I might consider switching.04:50
tgm4883_laptoptritium, I'm not sure about java, as I don't use that.  And adobe has released a pretty stable alpha of flash 64 which i've been using for a few months now04:51
tritiumtgm4883_laptop: that's encouraging04:51
* tgm4883_laptop shrugs04:51
tgm4883_laptopI use 64-bit fine on 4 of my systems04:51

tgm4883_laptopI'm supposed to let everyone know, that because launchpad is making it possible to have multiple PPA's in the future, that the naming scheme is changing.  If you are using the mythbuntu-testing PPA, you need to go get the new link05:01
tgm4883_laptopit's not a large change, it's going from http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu-testing/ubuntu/ to http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu-testing/ppa/ubuntu/05:02
tgm4883_laptopthat will be in your sources.list05:02
bobbob1016I'm trying to get 5.1 from spdif, but I can only get stereo from "speaker-test -c 5".  Any ideas?05:06
DraggorIs there any reason sound would work on a liveCD and not once installed?06:16
cannanyone know why my entrys in fstab dont persist through reboots ? . same thing if i change the permisions on a dev node. 8.04 backend and 8.10 diskless frontend07:49
Chommorning all13:05
Chomcan someone tell me the program i can get to compile info on my system to make ububtu boot proper?13:06
bobbob1016Chom, I didn't have to compile or install anything to make any Linux Distro boot correctly.  It might help if you say what issue you're having with booting.13:08
Chomwell, to start, i tried to install mythtvubuntu 8.10 and it hangs on bootup, then reading the forums, i might have a problem boothing, b/c it hanging on my pci-e card, and onboard video..(cant decide on what to use i think) so i was told to uninstall it and install ubuntu 8.10 and try it, and same problem, is mythtv ubuntu 8.10 basicly the same just with the mythtv program intergrated?13:18
bobbob1016Chom, Yes it is basically Ubuntu+MythTV, but you should be more specific.  As in what video card?  Exactly how far does it boot?  Are there any error messages?  If you said to a friend who's a mechanic, "My car won't start, how do I fix it?" would your friend be able to tell you how to fix it, or ask for more info?13:25
Chomthere is no error code, my pci-e card is a nvidea 8600 gt13:30
bobbob1016Chom, Ok, do you see anything on the screen?  Try booting "recovery mode", press escape when it boots, there'll be a count-down, and just select recovery mode.  Then select "xfix".13:32
bobbob1016Chom, Also, start your messages to me with my name, as in "bobbob1016 ..." that way I get a notification when you message me, I don't have to keep checking back to see if you did.13:33
Chom"bobbob1016"  - ok13:35
Chombobbob101 - error, in trying to boot with problems iwht vido card, "bbtv0 : using  unknown/generic *** [card=0,autodetected]13:41
bobbob1016Chom, It isn't your video card, or I don't think it is.  Sounds like your tuner.13:43
ChomBobbob1016 - hay, smart man, how did u know... i had a tuner. lol . so remove it and try to install?13:47
Chomor boot ?13:48
bobbob1016Chom, Either would work.  Usually bad to assume someone on IRC is a man, in this case yes, but just so you know.  Also your error says "bbtv0 : using unknown/generic ***"  bbtv0, as in something with tv13:49
Chombobbob1016 - ok i will remove it then and try to boot13:50
Chombobbob1016 - should i install mythtv ubuntu 8.10 then?13:50
bobbob1016Chom, Although I doubt that the tuner is your problem, since it should boot anyways, this might help you see the actual boot problem.13:51
bobbob1016Chom, Take it out, and see if there are other errors.13:51
Chombobbob1016 - will do13:51
Chombobbob1016 - thanks13:52
gomikethere are females in here?14:24
bobbob1016gomike, Sometimes, although there is no way to be sure, short of tracking an IP, and going there and looking.  Even then, you could be wrong.14:28
gomike:-D14:29
gomikeI am trying to drag myself out of bed this gloomy morning14:31
DraggorWhen I use the 8.10 liveCD, sound works just fine.  When I install, I get nothing.  I'm using an SB Live! card.17:04
