[01:47] <Syn-> ve got a HVR-1800 and im just not able to get it to either tune OTA via an antenna or cable channels when i hook up the antenna, has anyone gotten one of these to work and has step by step instructions? cause im ready to call it quits with this
[01:51] <vance4c> I have a working backend and several front end. I would like to have another frontend at a different location but the Internet connection is 4Mb/s and a bit laggy (it is a Motorola wireless canopy). I was thinking of a second backens and transferring files back on forth, Does anyone have suggestions?
[02:33] <hads> Myth isn't designed for WAN links. I'm not sure what the best solution would be.
[02:35] <vance4c> And also what is the purpose of a secondary backend
[02:53] <tgm4883> vance4c, so you can have multiple backends
[04:13] <MythbuntuGuest26> Hi -- I installed a mythbuntu backend today and when I reboot all I get is a login and then the command line... any thoughts as to why?  It's a fresh install...
[04:14] <MythbuntuGuest26> How do you even start it from the command line?
[04:49] <vance4c> to start the backend mythbackend
[04:56] <vance4c>  MythbuntuGuest26: did you do a check disk before you installed? It could be a bad burn or image and X died. Hit ctr+alt +F
[04:59] <vance4c> did you check the disk before install it could be a bad burn or iso and X died
[05:48] <MythbuntuGuest26> Thanks vance4c.  Turns out it was because there were two video cards and it didn't know which one to use.
[07:14] <squidly> hello
[07:15] <squidly> i'm currently running ubuntu 8.10, I would like to add in the mythbuntu repos so I can get the udpated versions of mythtv from you all
[08:26] <kabads> During the install, when should mysql have been populated with mythtv user, database etc? My system has booted after install with a clean mysql database (only root can access and mysql db exists)
[08:36] <kabads> I think I got it
[09:49] <kabads> maybe I haven't - time to do something else for a bit.

[13:19] <Baskaya>  hey guys I have a question for mythbuntu, before I install it on my media center. Can i play "IMG & ISO " files with mythbuntu? hope that someone  can help me
[13:20] <hads> Assuming you mean of a DVD then yes.
[13:23] <Baskaya> 	Yes when you have convateret a standard DVD on an IMG / ISO file, so mythbuntu should be able to play them ?
[13:37] <wombo_> yes it can
[13:37] <wombo_> It can also rip them for you from a DVD to the drive
[13:42] <Baskaya> oki. nice thx :)
[14:33] <MythbuntuGuest68> Hello I am trying to setup my skystar 2 dvb-s card, i cant get it to scan for channels - I have tried the scan terminal command but i get file not found (i think that the command is replaced by dvbscan) looking for freesat in the uk
[15:21] <EvilGuru> Are there any plans for alternate install disks for 9.04?
[15:22] <tgm4883> EvilGuru, NO
[15:22] <tgm4883> whoops
[15:22] <tgm4883> sorry about the caps lock
[15:23] <EvilGuru> tgm4883: So what about users who want/require LVM, the current partitioner knows nothing of it
[15:23] <EvilGuru> with the alternate one you got the more powerful debian-esq partitioner which is much nicer to work with
[15:24] <tgm4883> either use storage groups, or use the ubuntu alt disk and install a command line install
[15:24] <EvilGuru> Is there a terraforming guide for ubuntu => mythbuntu?
[15:25] <tgm4883> just do a command line install then install mythbuntu-desktop
[15:25] <tgm4883> might be something in
[15:25] <tgm4883> !install%
[15:25] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about install%
[15:25] <tgm4883> !guide%
[15:25] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about guide%
[15:25] <tgm4883> bah

[15:26] <Zinn> http://mythbuntu.org/installation_manual
[15:26] <EvilGuru> as mythbuntu does a great job with stuff like lirc and firmwares
[15:27] <EvilGuru> will mythbuntu-desktop carry all of that magic over with it?
[15:28] <rhpot1991> EvilGuru: to be honest LVM isn't needed now that we have storage groups
[15:28] <tgm4883> mythbuntu-desktop is a metapackage that pulls everything in
[15:28] <EvilGuru> rhpot1991: Thanks, but I like my lvm snapshots
[15:29] <EvilGuru> storage groups are just a hack for the most part
[15:30] <rhpot1991> additional storage without the headaches of a busted LVM, I like them
[15:31] <EvilGuru> storage for mythtv, if you wish to store other stuff *and* back it up nothing can compete with LVM
[15:33] <rhpot1991> EvilGuru: its recommended to keep your recordings seperate from everything else anyways, but yes LVM is better if you are doing something !mythtv
[18:43] <JEDIDIAH__> any ubuntu should do fine with lirc and ivtv and such.
[18:50] <EvilGuru> Okay, I've got mythbunut-desktop installed. How can I remove GNOME and openoffice etc (so uneeded stuff)?
[19:05] <Davide> Hi, I just installed Mythbuntu 8.10, and I can't seem to have sound.  I don't have sound either in mythtv nor in any part of the system, ie when I browse onto youtube, I get no sound in the videos.  I checked alsamixer, and upped all the volumes and unmuted whatever was muted, any ideas?
[19:06] <Davide> Is there a way to check if the drivers are properly installed? I am new to linux
[19:06] <tgm4883> EvilGuru, you shouldn't have gnome and such installed if you installed a command line system
[19:08] <EvilGuru> tgm4883: I was probably on autopilot when I did the install
[19:09] <tgm4883> at the boot menu in the alt disk, there should be a selection to do a command line install
[19:09] <tgm4883> alternatively, you could try uninstalling ubuntu-desktop then doing apt-get autoremove
[19:09] <tgm4883> but i'm not sure if that will work
[19:11] <Davide> I'm currently running the "Update Manager" to see if that takes care of anything  updating everything that was available
[19:21] <EvilGuru> tgm4883: I'll see what it wants to get rid of
[19:28] <administrator_> hi I found the new .deb file for weekly updates at the website, but there seems to be no repository for jaunty amd64 and -fixes, what can I do?
[20:48] <superm1> administrator_, try to do dpkg-reconfigure mythbuntu-weekly
[20:48] <superm1> and pick another mirror
[20:48] <superm1> it's possible the mirror is just not working
[20:48] <superm1> PPA is the most likely to work
[21:18] <administrator_> ah thx il try it
[21:20] <administrator_> works! thx
[21:35] <superm1> administrator_, which mirror were you on that was broke?
[22:01] <administrator_> I think it was UK
[22:07] <administrator_> the problem is: I still cannot run mythtv-setup. The whole menu is still black with a white rectangle in the middle. Maybe it is driver related? I use a 1650 Pro on jaunty mythbuntu 64bit, xserver-xorg-video-ati, and xserver-xorg-video-radeon are installed.
[22:09] <superm1> administrator_, there is a bug with this yes
[22:09] <superm1> you need to turn off DRI or use fglrx
[22:09] <superm1> bug 341898
[22:10] <Zinn> Bug 341898 in mythtv "Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts" [Unknown, Invalid] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/341898
[22:42] <EvilGuru> How can I get mythtv-backend to start a boot?
[23:52] <administrator_> superm1, thanks, what would be the best way to install fglrx? just unmark the radeon driver and mark fglrx in synaptic?
[23:53] <superm1> administrator_, no
[23:53] <superm1> administrator_, use the hardware drivers tool
[23:57] <administrator_> it doesnt offer me fglrx, all I can do is deactivate the mantis driver I installed for my skystar hd2
[23:58] <superm1> administrator_, if it's not offering it, check that you have fglrx-modaliases installed
[23:58] <superm1> and if you do, then make sure you do an apt update and try once more
