duffrecordsdoes anyone know the user/password for the Mythbuntu 9.04 live CD?  I can't find it on the Mythbuntu site or Google02:11
Essobi*YAWN*  Morning everyone.13:50
hugolphi18:24
hugolpIs there any problem with the mythbackend x64 packages?18:24
MythbuntuGuest88Anyone around for some troubleshooting of a new 9.04 Mythbuntu setup?19:16
MythbuntuGuest88I'm having trouble getting to the desktop from the MythTV frontend.19:16
rhpot1991escape?19:19
superm1unless you are using AMD graphics - and if so see release notes19:19
MythbuntuGuest88I believe it's running on an ATI graphics card. And yes, I did hit escape a bunch, and said yes I wanted to exit MythTV to the prompt.19:22
MythbuntuGuest88That brings me to a blank black screen with a mouse.19:22
MythbuntuGuest88There's no icons on the screen (even though I KNOW there's things on the desktop) and right click produces no menu.19:23
MythbuntuGuest88Shouldn't exiting MythTV bring me to the Xfce desktop? What gives?19:23
superm1it should bring you to an xfce desktop19:23
superm1that's a bit odd19:23
superm1can you try rebooting to see if it's transient?19:24
MythbuntuGuest88Yeah, no kidding. It was doing it fine last night.19:24
MythbuntuGuest88I've rebooted a ton.19:24
superm1interesting..19:24
superm1can you right click the desktop and get a menu at least?19:24
MythbuntuGuest88Nope, not at all.19:24
MythbuntuGuest88I CAN get to the Mythbuntu Control Centre through the MythTV dialogs, and from there the terminal. But I don't know what else to do from there to diagnose the problem.19:24
superm1you can try to clean up the ~/.cache and ~/.config directories19:25
superm1and then reboot from command line19:25
MythbuntuGuest88Alright, I'll try that.19:28
MythbuntuGuest88How do I delete directories that have contents?19:29
MythbuntuGuest88Or do I have to manually delete everything in each? By clear, you mean delete everything in them, yeah?19:29
superm1rm -rf ~/.config ~/.cache19:31
superm1would handle it19:31
MythbuntuGuest88And reboot from command line is?19:38
superm1sudo reboot19:38
MythbuntuGuest88This won't reset my settings for the TV tuner, right? That was somewhat of a pain to setup.19:39
MythbuntuGuest88Oh well, won't make a difference I suppose. Haha.19:39
superm1no, just xfce settings are kept in there19:39
superm1well on mythbuntu boxes that is19:39
superm1if you add more apps, they might get stored in there too19:39
MythbuntuGuest88Nods, haven't installed anything yet... Was in the process of trying to add truecrypt to the install, that's where all my media is stored.19:40
MythbuntuGuest88Oh hey, that fixed it. How weird.19:41
MythbuntuGuest88I wonder how that happened in the first place?19:41
superm1MythbuntuGuest88, i wish i knew. it's likely a bug in xfce19:41
superm1but it's hard to get it to reproduce when you start trying to debug it19:42
MythbuntuGuest88Well, I know how to fix it from now on, so thank you.19:42
MythbuntuGuest88Anyone wanna help me jump through hoops to get this Soundblaster Audigy card working with it? I think to get it working on Ubuntu I just had to alsamixer and remove digital out or something like that.19:42
superm1well if it happens again, it might be worthwhile backing up ~/.config and ~/.cache19:42
superm1and fililng a bug19:42
MythbuntuGuest88Is alsamixer still the fix in xfce/mythbuntu?19:42
superm1then we "should" be able to reproduce it in a test env regularly to try to fix it19:43
MythbuntuGuest88I'll have it backed up once I get up and working correctly. :)19:43
MythbuntuGuest88I'll keep that in mind, should I submit the backup somewhere specific?19:43
superm1well only if it happens with that current ~/.config and ~/.cache, but yes at launchpad.net/mythbuntu/19:43
superm1there is a bugs link there19:43
superm1alsamixer is still available in xfce, or there is an XFCE GUI tool, but it wont show as many options as alsamixer would19:44
MythbuntuGuest88Now I remember Gnome had a sound test button that would play a simple tone... Anything like that available in Xfce?19:47
MythbuntuGuest88That was my main method of testing.19:47
superm1aplay /usr/share/sounds/....19:50
superm1i dont think there is a gui tool though in xfce19:50
superm1i'd generally ssh in and run alsamixer19:50
superm1and then start playing live tv or a recording19:50
superm1and just modify alsamixer via ssh19:50
MythbuntuGuest88Got sound! Now to finish setting up TrueCrypt. :D19:59
EssobiAnyone running bttvs?20:07
EssobiI've got two ATIs, and I can't seem to find any docs on the sound driver portion of the cards, so you don't have to use the loopback cables and a local soundcard.20:08
MythbuntuGuest88Anyone know how to get MythBuntu to a static IP address within a home network? There's no network settings editor I can find like in the Ubuntu install, and sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces seems to only have entires for loopback and nothing for eth0 (and I do have an internet connection working on the machine).20:14
MythbuntuGuest88So, anytime I try to play any of these avi files in MythTV, the frontend just locks up.20:22
ernstpwith mythbuntu 9.04, after watching a program, mythtv no longer updates the program guide from EPG21:02
ernstpworked with my old 8.10 mythbuntu, did a complete reinstall with 9.0421:03
ernstpso up until I watch the first program after rebooting, it updates from the EPG. then it stops.21:03
efelxhi everybody, I'd need a small favour21:28
efelxcould someone give me the original mythbuntu smb.conf21:29
efelxor link to one...21:29
EssobiI'm headed home..21:33
superm1MythbuntuGuest55, are you the same as MythbuntuGuest88?22:05
superm1the one that set up truecrypt, and sound and missing xfce desktop?22:05
superm1if so, then just right click the network icon in your toolbar to setup static ip22:06
MythbuntuGuest55So I installed envy-ng to get my ATI card working properly, and now Ubuntu/Mythbuntu freezes on boot (the logo turns this weird pink color and gets small and distorted beforehand). Any easy way to fix this by reverting back or should I just reinstall from scratch again?22:13
MythbuntuGuest55And yes, same as 88. :)22:13
superm1MythbuntuGuest55, you shouldn't have needed to use envy to enable graphics.  it's offered in the hardware drivers tool22:24
superm1if it WASNT offered in that tool, your card isn't supported22:25
superm1and that's a bug that envy was offering to support it22:25
MythbuntuGuest55My card has been supported by previous Ubuntu installs, I'm confused why it apparently isn't?22:29
MythbuntuGuest55Yeah the Hardware Drivers tool doesn't show the card at all... The monitor is connected to the card and working fine. Previous Ubuntu installs have detected the card in the Hardware Drivers section so I could enable the Proprietary Drivers...22:34
MythbuntuGuest55I did have to install MythBuntu using the safe graphics mode, could that have botched it? How can I get this card (ATI Radeon 9800) working properly?22:35
Mozzgood evening23:18
