Guest81072 | hi | 00:24 |
Guest81072 | can anyone help with mythubuntu? | 00:24 |
Guest81072 | hello? | 00:27 |
tgm4883 | !ask Guest81072 | 00:32 |
Zinn | Sorry I don't know about ask Guest81072 | 00:32 |
tgm4883 | !ask | Guest81072 | 00:32 |
Zinn | Guest81072: Please don't ask if anyone is around or if it is alright to ask a question. Many people check back periodically and may answer your question when they see it. IRC is not normally an instant fix so check back often for an answer. | 00:32 |
Guest81072 | so ive added mythubuntu to ubuntu 8.10 and it gets no upnp backends found. how can i fix that? | 00:35 |
tgm4883 | what did you install on ubuntu 8.10? | 00:35 |
Guest81072 | mythubuntu | 00:36 |
tgm4883 | how did you install it though? | 00:36 |
tgm4883 | from the iso, synaptic, apt-get? | 00:36 |
Guest81072 | on the main page, it has an add option | 00:36 |
Guest81072 | it would be synaptic | 00:36 |
tgm4883 | are you saying you used this http://mythbuntu.org/existing-ubuntu | 00:37 |
tgm4883 | or you just selected packages to install from synaptic? | 00:38 |
Guest81072 | the link you given | 00:38 |
Guest81072 | ive clicked on the mythubuntu logo | 00:38 |
tgm4883 | ok, so you installed mythbuntu-desktop | 00:39 |
tgm4883 | do you have a mythtv backend anywhere on your network? | 00:39 |
tgm4883 | or is this a single machine setup? | 00:40 |
Guest81072 | can you tell me what is mythtv backend? im a little noob for this sorry | 00:40 |
tgm4883 | ok, so mythtv is built as a client/server model | 00:40 |
Guest81072 | yes | 00:40 |
tgm4883 | where the client is used to watch shows, and the server is used for things like recording shows | 00:41 |
tgm4883 | so it would seem you don't have a backend setup (the server portion) | 00:41 |
tgm4883 | so open up mythbuntu control centre, and tell it to install the backend (if you want this all on the same machine) | 00:41 |
tgm4883 | then you will need to run mythtv-setup and set the backend up | 00:41 |
Guest81072 | okay | 00:41 |
tgm4883 | read this http://mythbuntu.org/installation_manual it should help you along the way | 00:42 |
Guest81072 | how can i run the mythtv-setup? simply run the application? | 00:42 |
Guest81072 | thanks | 00:42 |
Guest81072 | i see now the setup | 00:42 |
Guest81072 | after it downloaded the backends | 00:43 |
Guest81072 | ok, next problem :) | 00:43 |
tgm4883 | right, after it downloads and installs the backend, you can run mythtv-setup | 00:43 |
Guest81072 | running the setup, the screen is glitchy, messed up, and i cannot read a thing on it | 00:44 |
tgm4883 | ati card? | 00:44 |
Guest81072 | yes :) | 00:44 |
tgm4883 | are you updated? | 00:45 |
Guest81072 | in ubuntu ive allowed the restricted hardware and it downloaded the driver | 00:45 |
Guest81072 | i hope its the latest | 00:45 |
tgm4883 | sec | 00:45 |
tgm4883 | Guest81072, what is your screen resolution? | 00:49 |
Guest81072 | 1366x768 | 00:50 |
tgm4883 | ok, try adding "export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=True" to /etc/mythtv/session-settings | 00:51 |
Guest81072 | done :) ive been reading forums, and i added this. the application will start normaly, but this setup wont | 00:52 |
tgm4883 | have you rebooted since adding that? | 00:52 |
Guest81072 | nope | 00:52 |
Guest81072 | should i try? | 00:53 |
tgm4883 | perhaps | 00:54 |
tgm4883 | i'd try it | 00:54 |
Guest81072 | okay, be back in a second | 00:54 |

Guest84888 | hi, im back | 00:58 |
Guest84888 | its the same :( | 00:58 |
josh__ | I'm migrating my heavily modified lircd.conf and lircrc from gentoo to ubuntu. I have a MCE USB tuner with a Comcast Custom 3 remote, and two blasters controlling a Samsung LCD TV and a Aiwa surround reciever. What's the best way of using my exisitng lircd.conf and lircrc and making them "stick"? | 00:58 |
tgm4883 | hmm | 00:58 |
tgm4883 | Guest84888, maybe try doing "mythtv-setup --geometry 1266x767" | 00:59 |
Guest84888 | in the session-settings? | 01:00 |
tgm4883 | no | 01:00 |
tgm4883 | from the command line | 01:00 |
Guest84888 | okay | 01:00 |
tgm4883 | and make that 1366x767 | 01:00 |
Guest84888 | same :( | 01:01 |
Guest84888 | could it be that my video card is not compatible with this application? | 01:02 |
Guest84888 | also, when i launch mythtv i can see the screen, but not the mouse | 01:08 |
tgm4883 | which ati card? | 01:08 |
tgm4883 | yea, I think thats by design | 01:08 |
Guest84888 | i have an ati mobility radeon hd 3470 | 01:09 |
tgm4883 | hmm | 01:15 |
tgm4883 | Guest84888, not sure, maybe try the open source drivers would be my next guess | 01:16 |
tgm4883 | i've never had particular luck with ati cards | 01:16 |
Guest84888 | is this setup part of mythtv has own session-settings file? | 01:16 |
Guest84888 | so i can insert this always indirect command there too | 01:17 |
tgm4883 | well that is a system wide change we made | 01:17 |
tgm4883 | its an environment variable | 01:17 |
Guest84888 | i see :( | 01:18 |
Guest84888 | well anyways, thanks for all the help | 01:20 |
Guest84888 | i will try something | 01:21 |
Guest84888 | bye | 01:22 |

schlazor | my MBE is currently 8.04. is there a good reason to upgrade it to 8.10? | 22:10 |
tgm4883 | schlazor, um, no? | 22:16 |
tgm4883 | are you happy with what you have? | 22:16 |
schlazor | no | 22:16 |
schlazor | i have the distinct pleasure of owning an ir blaster from iguanaworks | 22:17 |
schlazor | and it doesnt really work | 22:17 |
tgm4883 | ah | 22:17 |
schlazor | despite lots of attempts | 22:17 |
schlazor | figured maybe 8.10 would help | 22:17 |
tgm4883 | well i'm not sure about that device | 22:17 |
schlazor | since it appears that their precompiled debs are for 8.10 | 22:17 |
schlazor | just wondered if there were other good reasons | 22:17 |
* tgm4883 shrugs | 22:18 | |
tgm4883 | more mythexport features | 22:18 |
schlazor | i'm also having issues with xvmc but who isnt | 22:18 |
schlazor | module seems to load but it doesn't seem to do anything | 22:19 |
schlazor | well anyway i think i'll give it a go. you know, right before 9.4 is out :) | 22:23 |
pfein | anyone using myth as music player? I don't really watch video... | 23:54 |
