CRXLPYI am using the trunk repo for mythtv. I have not been able to use mytharchive for some time. It instructs me to recompile the plugin after a make distclean.....00:53
CRXLPYis mytharchive not current with trunk yet, or did I miss something silly?01:08
pteaguei'm getting ready to build a new front end... i'm wondering if i go with intrepid if the front end will still work with my hardy back end ?02:48
foxbuntupteague, should as long as your running Myth .21 on both02:58
pteaguek, wasn't sure as i currently only have 1 box with intrepid installed so far... & it's an old 1 i discovered most of the ram in it was bad when i repurposed it...  so not sure what packages intrepid has for mythtv yet03:01
pteagueback end has 0.21.0+fixes18207-0ubuntu403:02
pteaguehmm... any issues with the 64bit ? or is it still if you don't need it don't bother?03:05
foxbuntupteague, it hasnt been that for a long time03:08
foxbuntupteague, I use 64 on all my 64 hardware03:09
foxbuntupteague, you should have no problems with Myth between intrepid and hardy03:09
pteaguek, just wondering... i'm running 64bit on my desktop & usually don't have issues... just on occasion i get people that tell me all the problems with 64bit ;)03:12
foxbuntupteague, 64bit windows perhaps :)03:13

cdghowdy. -- Anyone on who knows anything about the Antec Fusion VFD?06:39
foxbuntucdg, VFD or LCD?06:50
cdgVFD06:51
cdgand Silver if that matters06:51
foxbuntuyup06:51
foxbuntucdg, what is the problem, silver pretty much work ootb06:51
cdgjust got the case and trying to get the display to work.  When I power it on the entire display lights up (I can see all of the icons etc)06:52
cdgand it stays like that.06:52
foxbuntucdg, you need to install LCDproc06:52
cdgI have the LCDproc from the 8.10 repos06:53
cdgand I see this from dmesg06:53
foxbuntucdg, then select the Soundgrpah Imon ir/LCD in MCC06:53
cdgok that may be the part I am missing06:53
cdgwhat is MCC?06:54
foxbuntucdg, Mythbuntu Control Centre06:54
cdgok06:54
cdgjust in case this helps I see this from dmesg:06:54
cdg lirc_imon: Driver for Soundgraph iMON MultiMedia IR/VFD w/imon pad2keys patch, v0.3p2k06:54
foxbuntuthats the one06:54
cdgthen I see:  lirc_imon: Venky Raju <dev@venky.ws>06:55
foxbuntuyup06:55
foxbuntucdg, sounds like you have the driver already loaded06:55
cdgyep06:55
cdghowever I never see the "found IMON device" message06:56
foxbuntucdg, not sure why, but for someone reason, first time setup, shut the machine down, and flip the power switch on the PSU until the VFD goes dark, then power it back up06:56
cdgI read something similar to that on the antec site06:56
foxbuntucdg, ls /dev/lirc*06:56
cdgls: cannot access /dev/lirc*: No such file or directory06:56
foxbuntuyou should see /dev/lirc006:56

foxbuntuusually dont have any problems with the Silver case07:26
cdgjust my luck :)07:26
foxbuntumust be slightly different hardware07:27
cdgI was worried I wired the VFD incorrectly07:27
foxbuntudoubtful07:27
cdgthat is good to know07:27
foxbuntuits key'd07:27
foxbuntuyou say it has icons?07:28
foxbuntuon the display07:28
foxbuntuit sounds more like the LCD rather than the VFD07:28
cdgyeah I see "music", movie, etc across the top07:28
foxbuntuI wonder if Antec switched from the VFD on the silver cased07:29
cdgany way to tell for sure?07:29
cdgim looking at the manual07:29
foxbuntuthe product number on the device...07:29
cdgI don't see anything on the outside except for antec07:30
foxbuntuno, the product number for the device was in the lsusb output you gave me earlier, I already looked it up, it is indeed the VFD07:31
foxbuntujust a different version of it07:31
cdgoh ok07:31
cdgdoes that mean I am sailing in uncharted waters?07:32
foxbuntuyou could try: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lirc-modules-source07:33
foxbuntucdg, naw, I see other people that have accomplished it07:33
foxbuntucdg, Antec just has quite a few version of the hardware variants floating around07:34
cdgwell that is good to know07:34
cdgI am getting the source now07:34
cdggot it07:35
foxbuntu_laptopcdg, send it again, I lost connection07:38

Shadow__Xfoxbuntu_laptop, are you familiar with tsocks07:42
foxbuntu_laptopcdg, I have to leave, however: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1041258 might be helpful, also you need to get /dev/lirc0 and /dev/lcd0 to show up to get it working07:42
foxbuntu_laptopShadow__X, nope07:42

frozenskunkHello all! Would anyone have an idea why mythbuntu 8.10 runs very slowly on a box that has run previous versions of mythbuntu as well as knoppmyth just fine? I have noticed that if I run top from a terminal window, my CPU wait time is almost always above 90%23:18
