| darthanubis | I broke my mythweb/apache | 08:44 |
| nasevz | Can somebody tell me what "-service" option in "mythfrontend -service" means? | 08:51 |
| nasevz | I am trying to start frontend in another screen, but everything after -service is ignored | 08:52 |
| hads | Yeah, you'll want mythfrontend.real | 08:52 |
| darthanubis | Setting up mythexport (1.99.4-0ubuntu1~ppa11) ... | 08:54 |
| darthanubis | ln: creating symbolic link `./video': File exists | 08:54 |
| nasevz | I should use mythfrontend.real -display :0.1 instead mythfrontend? | 08:54 |
| hads | nasevz: mythfrontend is a wrapper script, you can read it to see what it does | 08:54 |
| nasevz | ok, thnks | 08:54 |
| darthanubis | rhpot1991, mythexport's coonfig page is broken for me atm | 09:05 |
| ChinoChano | hi guys. a question. which kernel is in the different mythbuntu livecds? | 12:09 |
| ChinoChano | i would need the 2.6.29 one.. | 12:09 |
| rhpot1991 | darthanubis: I have a fix for the symlink issue, I need to test a few other things before I push it though | 13:34 |
| rhpot1991 | darthanubis: pastebin your apache error as to the config page and I'll look into that | 13:34 |
| Ymse1 | what is the su password for mythbuntu? | 14:14 |
| rhpot1991 | Ymse1: su is disabled by default, use sudo | 14:25 |
| Ymse1 | oki | 14:25 |
| Ymse1 | Do you have any idea why I can't boot after instaling the Mythbuntu CD? | 14:26 |
| rhpot1991 | Ymse1: grub screwed up? Gonna need to be more specific than "can't boot" | 14:31 |
| Ymse1 | Well I can't even get the tree structure to match what is should been. | 14:33 |
| Ymse1 | df /boot show one aufs Hardrive..... | 14:35 |
| darthanubis | rhpot1991, I resolved it. I broke my apache2 | 15:54 |
| rhpot1991 | darthanubis: ok good | 15:55 |
| ChinoChano | guys, do you know which kernel is shipped with the different mythbuntus? | 15:59 |
| superm1 | ChinoChano, its the same kernel with that line of ubuntu release | 16:00 |
| superm1 | so 9.04 is 2.6.28, 8.10 is 2.6.27, 8.04 is 2.6.24 | 16:00 |
| ChinoChano | ok. i think i would need the 2.6.29... but maybe on the 2.6.28 I would find what I m looking for... anyone using it could tell me? (thanks superm1 ) | 16:02 |
| superm1 | ChinoChano, it's possible to backport patches from 2.6.29 if necessary too | 16:04 |
| superm1 | you are best off asking in #ubuntu-kernel or kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com to get your patch backported | 16:04 |
| ChinoChano | ok. but could you have a look at the 2.6.28 (if you have it) and look for WideView support? | 16:06 |
| ChinoChano | more precisely:WideView WT-200U and WT-220U (pen) DVB-T USB2.0 support (Yakumo/Hama/Typhoon/Yuan | 16:07 |
| ChinoChano | is this avail in 2.6.28? | 16:07 |
| superm1 | ChinoChano, i'm really not that familiar with the internals of the code for that | 16:28 |
| superm1 | you'll want to ask the kernel guys | 16:28 |
| ChinoChano | ok no pb. i should find a kernel changelog to know what is inside... | 16:29 |
| id1402 | hello. | 16:42 |
| id1402 | i managed to install mythbuntu. | 16:42 |
| id1402 | i have a question. | 16:42 |
| id1402 | how can i prevent loading mythtvbackend and frontend at startup? | 16:42 |
| Shadow__X1 | uh thats the purpose of mythbuntu | 16:44 |
| id1402 | i only make "cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg" to record my old vhs recordings with pvr-150. | 16:44 |
| id1402 | i installed mythbuntu because i knew it has great pvr-150 support. | 16:44 |
| id1402 | install was easy. | 16:44 |
| id1402 | great distribution. | 16:44 |
| Shadow__X1 | uh you can install whats needed for the pvr-150 on ubuntu | 16:45 |
| Shadow__X1 | its just ivtv | 16:45 |
| id1402 | i never used ubuntu before. | 16:45 |
| id1402 | i use suse since 9 years. | 16:45 |
| Shadow__X1 | so install ivitv on suse | 16:45 |
| Shadow__X1 | or just get the driver from linuxtv | 16:46 |
| Shadow__X1 | http://www.linuxtv.org/repo/ | 16:46 |
| id1402 | no. i've old suse 10.0 installed, everythin runs great, but not pvr-150. bad ivtv driver there. | 16:46 |
| id1402 | i don't want to make upgrade to newest suse release. | 16:47 |
| Shadow__X1 | goto that side you can install the driver | 16:47 |
| id1402 | i'm happy with mythbuntu on separate pc. | 16:47 |
| id1402 | i will let it so. | 16:48 |
| id1402 | put it would be better for me, if mythtvbackend and frontend weren't starting automatically. | 16:49 |
| id1402 | now frontend starts and i close it manually. | 16:50 |
| id1402 | "cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg" is easier better for me than making a schdedule recording. | 16:50 |
| id1402 | why there isn't just a button "start recording with default profile now" in mythtv? | 16:51 |
| id1402 | that's why i use "cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg" in terminal. | 16:53 |
| id1402 | i'm trying now to get nfs working. | 16:58 |
| id1402 | how to load nfs in mythbuntu? | 16:59 |
| id1402 | i mean nfc-client. | 16:59 |
| id1402 | in suse i have to make entry in /etc/fstab and then "/etc/init.d/nfs restart". | 17:00 |
| id1402 | is it the same in mythbuntu? | 17:01 |
| id1402 | i want that file.mpg from "cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg" is directly written to a partition on another machine with nfs-server. | 17:02 |
| id1402 | hello highzeth. | 17:03 |
| id1402 | do you know nfs-client on mythbuntu? | 17:03 |
| id1402 | tobi. | 17:30 |
| r3z | Is the ATI TV Wonder Cablecard box dual tuner or single or how does it work? | 19:46 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, have you tested the software yet? | 19:49 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, all of the specs and information are in the deb | 19:50 |
| r3z | I dont have a box yet. | 19:50 |
| r3z | I am looking at maybe purchasing one ;) | 19:50 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, the software will explain, you dont need a box yet | 19:50 |
| foxbuntu | its just spec | 19:50 |
| r3z | Sweet! | 19:51 |
| r3z | Alrighty. I can use it then ;) | 19:51 |
| foxbuntu | have you downloaded the deb yet? | 19:51 |
| * r3z goes off to buy one.... | 19:51 | |
| r3z | Ya. | 19:51 |
| r3z | Just installed it. Checking it out. | 19:52 |
| foxbuntu | Good :) | 19:52 |
| * foxbuntu looks around and decides to go back to hiding | 19:52 | |
| foxbuntu | not nearly the volume to the site today I was hoping for...but not bad still | 19:54 |
| foxbuntu | 2100ish hits | 19:54 |
| r3z | How does Comcast broadcast its digital TV signals? | 19:57 |
| r3z | Anyone know? | 19:57 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, Comcast converted to CADIE as of yesterday, its now all handled with AutoPilot | 20:00 |
| r3z | Schweet! | 20:00 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, what exactly do you want to know about it? | 20:02 |
| r3z | Is there a tuner card I can buy to get the channels over 100? I do not have any premium channels only want some of the digital channels. Don't know if its possible yet or not. | 20:03 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, via RG6 (coax?) | 20:03 |
| r3z | foxbuntu, yes. | 20:34 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, not going to happen, digital channels are encrypted | 20:40 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, thus the "cableCARD" | 20:41 |
| r3z | Ya. | 20:41 |
| r3z | Figured as much :( | 20:41 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, you can use a STB from your local cable co and then grab it with any number of tuners | 20:41 |
| r3z | Ya but that is a PITA. | 20:41 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, also when Myth .22 is out (likely all the support will be in Mythbuntu 9.10) the HDPVR will be able to capture HD channels via you HD STB's | 20:42 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, its what it is | 20:42 |
| r3z | Ya | 20:42 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, also...you could pickup a ready to use unit when they go on sale: http://www.foxmediasystems.com ;) | 20:43 |
| * foxbuntu waits for hads to poke fun at his self promoting | 20:44 | |
| r3z | ;) | 20:44 |
| foxbuntu | r3z, im actually beta testing what I think I am going to be selling now...its pretty exciting to finally be getting to this point | 20:47 |
| Ymse1 | I'm setting up Ubuntu for later instaling MythTV....how is it recommenden to partition the Harddrive? | 20:47 |
| foxbuntu | Ymse1, any way you like :) | 20:48 |
| foxbuntu | Ymse1, personally I have a mount point called /mythtv (but thats LVM) where all my recordings and such reside | 20:48 |
| foxbuntu | Ymse1, the defaulted guided install on the Ubuntu disk works just fine however | 20:49 |
| Ymse1 | foxbuntu........but the default make all in one partittion??? | 20:52 |
| Ymse1 | have thought about making it like following after reading different forums: | 20:53 |
| Ymse1 | /dev/sda1 - ext3 -Mount point / - 5GB | 20:53 |
| Ymse1 | . /dev/sda5 - SWAP - 3 GB | 20:54 |
| Ymse1 | . /dev/sda6/ - xfs - mount point /home - 110GB | 20:55 |
| foxbuntu | Ymse1, no it makes three partitions by default / <swap> /var | 21:11 |
| foxbuntu | Ymse1, you dont want /home to be the big one | 21:12 |
| foxbuntu | Ymse1, that configuration would not work | 21:12 |
| Ymse1 | foxbuntu: I found out, but thx anyway.....but still instaling so will have plenty more to bother you with :) | 21:12 |
| Ymse1 | I'm just hoping that Ubuntu will boot from the HD after instalation, because the Mythbuntu live CD did not.......... | 21:13 |
| Ymse1 | and noooo................I still wont boot from the bloody Hardrive.......... | 21:15 |
| hads | foxbuntu you spammer :) | 21:33 |
| foxbuntu | hads, there you are...took you long enough | 21:34 |
| foxbuntu | ;) | 21:34 |
| * hads just woke up | 21:34 | |
| foxbuntu | slacker.. | 21:34 |
| foxbuntu | lol | 21:34 |
| Ymse1 | Oki......problem har been localized................I need to reset the master boot record.......... | 21:49 |
| gumpert345 | hi I am running mythbuntu jaunty after, I have problems to run the frontend and mythtv-setup, whenever I start it, the gui either doesnt appear or is all black, the PC reacts on Alt+F2 thought (ATI card) is this a known problem or should I tell someone? | 23:12 |
