[03:30] <dthacker> hello
[03:32] <dthacker> I'm building a new 8.10 backend (only backend on network).   It looks like mythfilldb is pulling listings from my account, but I'm not getting any listings in the database.  How can I troubleshoot??
[03:53]  * dthacker nudges the channel to see if anyone is awake
[04:19] <jargonjustin> Hey all, I just did a dist-upgrade from Mythbuntu 8.08 to 8.10, and my display setup (proprietary nvidia) seems to have broken.  Now when I go to Hardware Drivers and try to activate the new driver, nothing seems to happen.
[04:20] <jargonjustin> That is, after clicking activate I get a brief progress bar to come up (after authentication) that then disappears, leaving the driver unactivated. I'm not sure what logs to check for more information.
[04:42] <dthacker> just ran mythfilldatabase with the -v database flag.  Inserts appear to be ok, I still have no listings.  How do I debug and fix?
[06:24] <Guest41022> hey all, having a strange problem with Mythbuntu, where Xfce is showing up as a blank screen. I can access the other terminal windows, all are coming up w/ command line... This was working a few days ago...
[08:54] <Shadow__X> is there a way to run xfce applets in gnome?
[12:56] <dthacker> happy Saturday
[12:57] <dthacker> I'm still not seeing any listings at all in the guide.   I ran mythfilldatabase with the -v database option to watch the inserts and everything looks ok. How can I debug and fix this?
[13:04] <rlameiro> hi
[13:04] <rlameiro> anyone here knows how to mount something using run levels?
[13:04] <rlameiro> I wanted to mount a samba share at runlevel 5
[13:04] <rlameiro> rc5.d
[13:05] <rlameiro> does the script need to have specialthings?
[13:05] <rlameiro>  only puted the #!/bin/sh
[13:05] <rlameiro> and then the mount command
[13:11]  * dthacker is going to manually look at the database to see if listings are getting inserted
[13:22] <dthacker> hmmm can't log in as user "mythtv" at the command line
[13:23] <dthacker> reboot again.
[13:27] <dthacker> what does "Enable Database Server Wakeup" do?  Isn't the database always up?
[13:28] <rlameiro> I think not
[13:28] <rlameiro> I think it is to save resources
[13:29] <rlameiro> but I am not expert
[13:31] <dthacker> ok, mysqld daemons are running, that's promising
[13:33] <dthacker> mysql -u mythtv -p is not working with the password shown on the front end setup screen.
[13:35] <dthacker> this all started when I tried to enter set the machine on a static IP address, and I had a working 7.10 setup with remote frontends.  Argh
[13:38] <dthacker> !listings
[13:38] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about listings
[13:39] <dthacker> !database
[13:39] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about database
[13:44] <dthacker> Well, this channel has been really dead this week.  I'll go try the mailing list.
[13:47] <rlameiro> yea is dead
[13:47] <rlameiro> kkk
[14:28] <|dthacker|> I think I've isolated my problem to mythfilldatabase not inserting into the MySQL tables.   Any troubleshooting tips?
[14:28] <rhpot1991> !mysql | |dthacker|
[14:28] <Zinn> |dthacker|: 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-common
[14:31] <|dthacker|> thanks rhpot1991, but I'm reluctant to do that, because I can connect at the command line using mysql -u mythtv -p and the password in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt
[14:32] <rhpot1991> |dthacker|: I'd verify the grabber is returning something, and that your mythtv mysql user can write to the mythconverg database
[14:36] <|dthacker|> rhpot1991: I've run mythfilldatabase -v database and watched the log.  I'm getting program info and it's getting formed into SQL inserts.  I don't think that debug option logs MySql insert errors.  I think I'm not inserting, 'cos I've got zero rows in the "program" table
[14:38] <|dthacker|> I'm going to run a "refresh-today
[14:38] <|dthacker|> and see what happens....
[14:42] <|dthacker|> 2009-03-14 09:39:50.347 No channels are configured to use grabber.
[14:42] <|dthacker|>  
[14:42] <|dthacker|> tha looks suspicious
[14:56] <|dthacker|> found it.  missing setting in lineup.
[15:11] <hein_> Hello. I just tried to install Mythweb, but unforunally it didn't work.
[15:12] <hein_> I could lock in.
[15:12] <hein_> Soory couldn't login.
[15:12] <rlameiro> hein_: n mythbuntu?
[15:12] <hein_> No, Mythtv under Ubuntu 8.10
[15:13] <rlameiro> ahhh
[15:13] <rlameiro> ok
[15:13] <rlameiro> try to configure it thru the front end configuration
[15:13] <hein_> I work through several tip and tricks I found in the web, but seems I destroyed more then it helps.
[15:14] <hein_> I can configure mythweb through the mythfrontend?
[15:15] <rlameiro> I dont know
[15:15] <rlameiro> in mythbuntu they have a configuration tool for that
[15:15] <rlameiro> maybe at the backend conf
[15:15] <rlameiro> let-me see
[15:16] <hein_> rlameiro, it's not possible to configure the mythweb with the frondend.
[15:17] <rlameiro> yeah
[15:17] <hein_> Yes, there is a configuration tool, but does it work under "normal" ubuntu also?
[15:17] <rlameiro> even with back end
[15:17] <rlameiro> wait a moment
[15:17] <rlameiro> let me try something else
[15:18] <hein_> Easiest way could be I try to install it.
[15:18] <rlameiro> yea
[15:18] <rlameiro> I am looking at that now
[15:19] <hein_> Oh, there are some dependencies, one is mythbuntu-common. Wah will this do?
[15:20] <rlameiro> I think so
[15:20] <rlameiro> I am seeing it now
[15:20] <rlameiro> install it
[15:20] <rlameiro> it will not break your sistem
[15:21] <hein_> Ok, then I will try it. the package I need seems to be mythbuntu-control-centre
[15:21] <rlameiro> yeap
[15:21] <rlameiro> is that
[15:21] <rlameiro> !
[15:21] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about
[15:22] <rlameiro> I think it will be that
[15:22] <hein_> Synaptic is running. ....
[15:22] <rlameiro> It allows to setup lirc remotes, vnc, mysql, etc
[15:22] <rlameiro> everything
[15:24] <rlameiro> when is installed say something
[15:26] <hein_> Seems it works. Great.
[15:26] <hein_> I had to do a dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database
[15:26] <hein_> But it seems it woks.
[15:27] <rlameiro> great
[15:27] <rlameiro> try it now
[15:28] <rlameiro> it is at applications &plugins
[15:28] <hein_> Waht happens if I do a reboot? Change I my normal Ubuntu desktop to a media server now?
[15:28] <rlameiro> wait
[15:28] <rlameiro> you can do that
[15:28] <rlameiro> if you chose to auto login
[15:29] <hein_> Let me first try if the web interface works.
[15:29] <rlameiro> and then mytv frontend is opened at boot
[15:30] <hein_> No, I couldn't login
[15:31] <hein_> Did you know where I can change the password/login?
[15:31] <rlameiro> in applications & plugins
[15:31] <rlameiro> at the control center
[15:31] <hein_> Sorry I foundit.
[15:32] <rlameiro> np
[15:32] <rlameiro> it should work
[15:33] <hein_> Woks.
[15:33] <rlameiro> great
[15:34] <rlameiro> no if you want your computer to log directly to mythtv
[15:34] <rlameiro> you need to config that
[15:35] <hein_> No not this computer. I just testing it. I want to setup a mediaserver and at the moment I test which software fits my needs bsst.
[15:35] <rlameiro> you can do that in Artwork and login behaviour
[15:35] <rlameiro> ok
[15:35] <rlameiro> I just set up mine
[15:35] <rlameiro> :)
[15:35] <rlameiro> my tv is not working good
[15:36] <rlameiro> but the problem is my tv capture card...
[15:36] <hein_> I tried vdr and now im testing mythbuntu. vdr works, but it's from the look and feel a decade behind mythtv
[15:36] <rlameiro> vdr?
[15:36] <hein_> I've a DVB-S card, work fine, excellent picture.
[15:37] <rlameiro> well ia have analog card
[15:37] <rlameiro> and analog cable....
[15:37] <rlameiro> not so lucky...
[15:38] <rlameiro> well
[15:38] <rlameiro> I am happy it works
[15:38] <hein_> vdr is more common in german.
[15:38] <hein_> Not in german, ijn Germany.
[15:39] <rlameiro> I saw now
[15:39] <rlameiro> googled it
[15:39] <hein_> But mythtv is much easier to install and logs better. Did you know if HDTV works with mythtv?
[15:40] <rlameiro> in theory it should work
[15:40] <rlameiro> but i cant now that
[15:40] <rlameiro> I am in analog world yet....
[15:40] <rlameiro> still sorry...
[15:40] <hein_> What I want to do is do replace all media things with on server, like TV, CD, radio, DVD.
[15:41] <rlameiro> mythbunto is made for that
[15:41] <rlameiro> ;)
[15:42] <hein_> HDTV is just an option for the future, at the moment I've anly a normal TV, no LCD.
[15:42] <hein_> Yes mythbuntu looks great. I'll try my remote.
[15:44] <hein_> My remote didn't work, I've to look at this.
[15:44] <hein_> rlameiro, many thanks for your help.
[15:44] <rlameiro> wich remote is?
[15:45] <hein_> the remote is the one that cames with my DVB card, it's a Hauppauge WinTV Nova HD-S2.
[15:45] <rlameiro> did you selected it at the control center - infrared devices?
[15:46] <rlameiro> normally haupage is well suported
[15:46] <hein_> It's the same card and remote as an Hauppauge ... 4000 or so, only that it didn't have an analog grabber and no radio receiver.
[15:47] <rlameiro> there is a remot that says
[15:47] <hein_> Yes I think so, let me check it.
[15:47] <rlameiro> hauppage DVB-s
[15:47] <rlameiro> version 2.1
[15:47] <rlameiro> maybe
[15:47] <rlameiro> try that
[15:48] <hein_> I have selected it. But I have running the lirc also.
[15:48] <rlameiro> there is also nova t500
[15:48] <hein_> No, the Nova t500 0is the wrong one.
[15:48] <hein_> The DVB 2.1 is the right choise.
[15:49] <rlameiro> is it working?
[15:50] <hein_> no
[15:52] <rlameiro> did you applyied the settings?
[15:52] <hein_> In the frondend configuration I found an item "LIRC Scripts". Did you know what this is for?
[15:52] <rlameiro> i dont really know
[15:53] <rlameiro> maybe is for controll other devices via infrared
[15:53] <rlameiro> how is your ir receiver
[15:53] <rlameiro> do you connect it to your DBV-s board?
[15:55] <hein_> Yes, is connected through teh DVB card
[15:55] <hein_> It worked under vdr, via lirc.
[15:56] <rlameiro> well
[15:56] <rlameiro> well
[15:56] <rlameiro> here I cant help much
[15:56] <rlameiro> Im not an expert
[15:56] <rlameiro> sorry
[15:56] <hein_> I read somewhere, that lirc is included in mythtv, so that should not start a own lirc daemon. Is this right?
[15:56] <rlameiro> I also couldnt use my captures card remote
[15:57] <rlameiro> buyed a microsoft remote
[15:57] <rlameiro> maybe
[15:57] <rlameiro> is it running?
[15:57] <hein_> No, I have to read the instructions I think.
[15:57] <rlameiro> lol
[15:57] <rlameiro> ok
[15:57] <hein_> If I start mythbuntu, it kills my lircd.
[15:58] <hein_> I'll take a look at the log files. One moment.
[16:02] <hein_> No, nothing to see.
[16:02] <hein_> But if not, then I'll buy a MS remote.
[16:03] <hein_> Let my try na reboot. I'll back in some minutes.
[16:13] <hein__> So, I'm back. Remote still didn't work
[16:40] <hein__> rlameiro: Remote works.
[16:41] <hein__> It was just a problem with the /de/... configuration in the lirc.conf.
[16:42] <rlameiro> nice
[16:43] <rlameiro> sorry
[16:43] <rlameiro> I was mounting my htpc at the living room
[16:43] <rlameiro> dvd player stalls at menu
