MythbuntuGuest90I cannot get my irblaster to work.  I have 2 PVR 250's (one with remote) and a serial ir blaster from irblaster.info01:40
MythbuntuGuest90The PVR250 "haupauge tv card" remote works fine, but when I select an irblaster neither one works01:40
MythbuntuGuest90I tried the instructions in the install pdf, but same result01:40
bicchiI am tyring to install mythbuntu and when i click the install icon it opens the editor to edit the install icon.01:51
bicchii tried running "ubuquity mythbuntu-ui" from the command line and also get an error.01:51
superm1bicchi, from a like disk?02:19
superm1the command mythbuntu's UI overrides GTK if you have ubiquity-frontend-mythbuntu02:20
MythbuntuGuest90Trying everything to get my serial irblaster to work.02:32
MythbuntuGuest90Anyone familiar with serial irblaster from irblaster.info?  (using a PVR250 remote also, got that working)02:33
MythbuntuGuest90getting device doesn't support sending on irsend command02:33
superm1so you just need to run the command "ubiquity"02:42
superm1MythbuntuGuest90, start out with a digital camera02:42
superm1see if you are seeing anything sent with it02:42
MythbuntuGuest90Will it still send codes even with "hardware doesn't support sending? "02:54
superm1no02:59
superm1that means you need to add an argument likely02:59
superm1for the device and explicitly say /dev/lirc002:59
superm1or similar02:59
MythbuntuGuest90where would I put that?03:02
MythbuntuGuest90according to the forums it should be /dev/lircd or /dev/lircd103:03
superm1i dont know off hand, you might be better making a forum post tbh03:04

bicchii am setting up mythbuntu for the first time and when I get the part of configuring the backend I get a black screen and nothing else happens.05:10
bicchiThis is after I run the mythfilldatabase.05:10
bicchiIn other words, I do not see the "MythTV Backend Setup" and all I get is a black screen that I have to press Esc to go back to the Desktop05:13
bicchino letters, and nothing else gets displayed. just a black screen.05:13

MythbuntuGuest91Hi all, does any one of a PPA with a recent working version of Myth Vodka in it16:00
danielk22Has anyone gotten USB-UIRT to work with jaunty yet? I've gotten transmit to work by commenting out the repeat count and manually sending repeats in the channel change script, but I haven't gotten rx to work.. if you cat ttyUSB0 or use mode2 you get output, but lircd doesn't seem to decode it and irrecord throws errors with usb_uirt_raw and usb_uirt2, and learns wacky codes with uirt2 (which doen't work with lircd either).16:03
danielk22The problems with the driver reported here (http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/USB-UIRT) seem to have been fixed, so I'm scratching my head.16:04
tgm4883MythbuntuGuest91, no16:05
MythbuntuGuest91is it just not stable enought at the momment then ?16:07
tgm4883It's...replaced.   Although I don't have a PPA with Mythfeed in it yet either16:08
tgm4883IIRC, the devs of mythvodka decided to do all work on MythTV .2216:09
tgm4883and I don't run .22, so I stopped hosting it16:09
MythbuntuGuest91ah right. So basicly I will have to wait untill .22 or run trunk.16:11
tgm4883well it looks to me as dev on mythvodka has stopped16:12
tgm4883back in Feb16:12
tgm4883either it was renamed to Mythfeed, or it was forked and mythfeed is the result of that16:12
tgm4883either way I think mythvodka is done16:13
MythbuntuGuest91it certianlly seems to have every one talking about it, probably because of the name!16:13
MythbuntuGuest91although Hulu & iPlayer integration would be good.16:14
MythbuntuGuest91thanks for the info.16:14
tgm4883well, like I said Mythfeed (previously mythvodka (previously mythstreams)) has hulu support16:14
tgm4883I just need to get it packaged16:14
tgm4883i'm not sure about iplayer support though, I'm in the US so it doesn't really affect me16:15
MythbuntuGuest91unless you have some where to bounce the traffic off. I am the UK so its kind of the oposite sitution for me.16:16
tgm4883yep16:17
tgm4883are you following the mythvodka thread on the forums?16:17
tgm4883IIRC, they are talking about the iplayer support right now16:17
tgm4883http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1006069&page=3316:18
MythbuntuGuest91thanks16:19
tgm4883np16:20
JEDIDIAH__how do you deal with an alternate prefix in mythfeed?17:46
JEDIDIAH__np17:56
MythbuntuGuest22anyone ever had a problem with their HDTV displaying a blank screen as soon as X starts?18:20
danielk22Does anyone know how do you restart jaunty to use a new kernel? "shutdown now -r" will reboot to the same kernel.. (I grant that is quicker, but I'd like to try some kernel upgrades..) My workaround now is to "shutdown now -P" then call someone located physically near the machine and having them press the power button, not ideal...18:20
danielk22nevermind, I think I found the bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kexec-tools/+bug/25124218:23
danielk22sorry, false unalarm.. I don't have kexec-tools installed...18:24
danielk22bah! correct myself again, 251242 is the bug I ran into. It appears kexec-tools is only on some of my jaunty machines, but not the mythbuntu CD installed ones... it's only on some machines that I upgraded to jaunty.18:30
JEDIDIAH__does anyone use mythfeed with trunk?20:08
mattwj2002hi everyone20:29
mattwj2002right now I am converting my ubuntu 9.04 64-bit setup to mythbuntu20:29
mattwj2002:D20:29
mattwj2002ssssslllllllooooowwwww download though20:30
danielk22mattwj2002: the key is to find a fast mirror nearby.. if you use the ubuntu default mirror finding it doesn't send you to the fastest mirror, just one in your country.20:43
mattwj2002it is okay20:49
mattwj2002:)20:49
mattwj2002how long does it usually take for the mirrors to cool off?21:12
foxbuntumattwj2002, just depends, the first few days after a release are the worst, it tapers off pretty quickly after that22:11
mattwj2002nice :)22:12
gumpert345does something like the aeonproject exist for mythtv?22:49
danielk22gumpert345: no22:50
gumpert345thats sad22:51
gumpert345thx for the info though22:51
