abarbaccia1hey team, does mythbuntu use pulseaudio at all or is it planning on using it in upcoming releases?00:00
abarbaccia1i notice its installed on my intrepid desktop but not on my intrepid mythbuntu box by default00:00
tgm4883_laptopabarbaccia1, IIRC, mythtv doesn't work with pulseaudio00:01
tgm4883_laptopThat could be old info though00:01
abarbaccia1well mythtv would still pump through alsa, and then theres teh pulseaudio layer on top of that i believe.00:15
abarbaccia1i just wanna play music from my desktop through my surroundsound without using the myth stuff00:15
abarbaccia1that's all00:15
perilousapricottgm4883_laptop, myth works with pulse00:19
perilousapricottgm4883_laptop, they fixed the bug on myth's end00:19
abarbaccia1yeah i just dug up the bug reports in trac00:20
abarbaccia1does mythbuntu have pulse installed though, it doesn't seem to00:20
abarbaccia1or at least not on the diskless frontend images...00:21
abarbaccia1might be adding that one in soon...00:21
BatshuaUhm.00:41
Batshua... yeah, I somehow managed to break the connection between the frontend and the backend on my new mythbuntu install.  What's the name of that .conf file I should be editing to fix it?00:42
* Batshua is made of loss and fail00:42

BassKozzWhat is tearing? I've heard alot of people complain about tearing with VDPAU, but what is it?03:39
* Batshua tears hair out03:56
Batshua... I just can't get things working.  One thing gets fixed, another thing breaks.03:56
BatshuaI know mysql is screwed up somehow, but I don't know how to fix it.03:56

ZinnBatshua: If you are having problems connecting to your mysql database, you can perform the following to reconfigure it: 1. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0 (pay attention to the root password you set, you will need it for the next step) 2. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database 3. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common03:59

MythbuntuGuest96I read about XvMC but see no settings in the front end04:01
BatshuaZinn:  Thanks tons, here goes nothing.04:02
Batshuaokay so I probably have to re-re-configure mysql because it now believes the user logging in to be root04:03
Batshuaand that's probably a very bad idea04:03
Batshuabut but but but04:03
Batshuanow everything talks to everything again04:03
Batshuaonto solving my next problem.  "watch tv" gives me only a blank screen.04:26
Batshuano errors reported in the mythfrontend log04:26
Batshuait is trying to interface with my cable box, but no joy04:27
rhpot1991!blank% | Batshua04:35
ZinnBatshua: If you try to watch tv and are greeted with a blank screen and a return to the menu then please check the permissions on your recording directory.  It should be owned by mythtv:mythtv, have permissions of 775, and not be inside your home directory04:35

tiferethi discover something strange, my remote works but no lirc is running, can annyone tell me which process does this?16:27
tiferethrunning mythbuntu 8.1016:27
superm1built in kernel support for your remote16:31
tiferethso how to confiure it then?16:32
tiferethdue it only knows some keys16:32
tiferethor how to use lirc16:32
superm1you have to disable kernel from using it then by making an fdi file16:33
tiferethcould you tell me how to do?16:33
superm1modify /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/lirc.fdi16:34
superm1and add the matching key for your remote from lshal16:34
tiferethokay thanks i try16:37
tiferethsuperm1: i edited the file rebootet and my remote is no more working yet ( through dbus ), but there's too no device i just got /dev/lircd16:44
tiferethno /dev/lirc0 or sth like this16:44
superm1tifereth, you still have to configure it with dpkg-reconfigure lirc17:45
superm1making that HAL change should have just turned off the kernel exclusively locking it17:45
tiferethokay thanks but already found out17:47
tifereththe device is /dev/input/event617:48
tiferethi now have an comple lircd.conf is there a way to create the mythlirc conf out of it?17:48

okirobwow, totally wrong window21:05
the[V]oidHi. I have a mythtv-box and a network-attached-storage (NAS) that contains mp3 files. I can mount it's share without problems. But whenever I try to play a file, for instance with mpg123, it just hangs. Any idea what the reason could be, or where to start searching the error? It worked until yesterday, I did not perform any changes to my network/system.21:37
the[V]oidMounting the share from a different computer and playing from there works fine21:38

gizmobayI'm currently running myth under Fedora 8. I figure I'm going to need to upgrade since it's EOL for F8. Before I setup my original system, I tried MythDora and it was very fussy about upgrading as it would pouch the system. Is mythbunu like that?23:27
dashcloudI successfully upgraded my mythbuntu system before- it worked quite well, and nothing broke23:34
