[01:35] Bleh [01:35] irw isnt even see my button presses... [01:57] Fixed. [01:57] lircd.conf was jacked. [02:11] does anyone know the user/password for the Mythbuntu 9.04 live CD? I can't find it on the Mythbuntu site or Google [13:50] *YAWN* Morning everyone. [18:24] hi [18:24] Is there any problem with the mythbackend x64 packages? [19:16] Anyone around for some troubleshooting of a new 9.04 Mythbuntu setup? [19:16] I'm having trouble getting to the desktop from the MythTV frontend. [19:19] escape? [19:19] unless you are using AMD graphics - and if so see release notes [19:22] I 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] That brings me to a blank black screen with a mouse. [19:23] There's no icons on the screen (even though I KNOW there's things on the desktop) and right click produces no menu. [19:23] Shouldn't exiting MythTV bring me to the Xfce desktop? What gives? [19:23] it should bring you to an xfce desktop [19:23] that's a bit odd [19:24] can you try rebooting to see if it's transient? [19:24] Yeah, no kidding. It was doing it fine last night. [19:24] I've rebooted a ton. [19:24] interesting.. [19:24] can you right click the desktop and get a menu at least? [19:24] Nope, not at all. [19:24] I 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. [19:25] you can try to clean up the ~/.cache and ~/.config directories [19:25] and then reboot from command line [19:28] Alright, I'll try that. [19:29] How do I delete directories that have contents? [19:29] Or do I have to manually delete everything in each? By clear, you mean delete everything in them, yeah? [19:31] rm -rf ~/.config ~/.cache [19:31] would handle it [19:38] And reboot from command line is? [19:38] sudo reboot [19:39] This won't reset my settings for the TV tuner, right? That was somewhat of a pain to setup. [19:39] Oh well, won't make a difference I suppose. Haha. [19:39] no, just xfce settings are kept in there [19:39] well on mythbuntu boxes that is [19:39] if you add more apps, they might get stored in there too [19:40] Nods, 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. [19:41] Oh hey, that fixed it. How weird. [19:41] I wonder how that happened in the first place? [19:41] MythbuntuGuest88, i wish i knew. it's likely a bug in xfce [19:42] but it's hard to get it to reproduce when you start trying to debug it [19:42] Well, I know how to fix it from now on, so thank you. [19:42] Anyone 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] well if it happens again, it might be worthwhile backing up ~/.config and ~/.cache [19:42] and fililng a bug [19:42] Is alsamixer still the fix in xfce/mythbuntu? [19:43] then we "should" be able to reproduce it in a test env regularly to try to fix it [19:43] I'll have it backed up once I get up and working correctly. :) [19:43] I'll keep that in mind, should I submit the backup somewhere specific? [19:43] well only if it happens with that current ~/.config and ~/.cache, but yes at launchpad.net/mythbuntu/ [19:43] there is a bugs link there [19:44] alsamixer is still available in xfce, or there is an XFCE GUI tool, but it wont show as many options as alsamixer would [19:47] Now I remember Gnome had a sound test button that would play a simple tone... Anything like that available in Xfce? [19:47] That was my main method of testing. [19:50] aplay /usr/share/sounds/.... [19:50] i dont think there is a gui tool though in xfce [19:50] i'd generally ssh in and run alsamixer [19:50] and then start playing live tv or a recording [19:50] and just modify alsamixer via ssh [19:59] Got sound! Now to finish setting up TrueCrypt. :D [20:07] Anyone running bttvs? [20:08] I'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. [20:14] Anyone 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). [20:22] So, anytime I try to play any of these avi files in MythTV, the frontend just locks up. [21:02] with mythbuntu 9.04, after watching a program, mythtv no longer updates the program guide from EPG [21:03] worked with my old 8.10 mythbuntu, did a complete reinstall with 9.04 [21:03] so up until I watch the first program after rebooting, it updates from the EPG. then it stops. [21:28] hi everybody, I'd need a small favour [21:29] could someone give me the original mythbuntu smb.conf [21:29] or link to one... [21:33] I'm headed home.. [22:05] MythbuntuGuest55, are you the same as MythbuntuGuest88? [22:05] the one that set up truecrypt, and sound and missing xfce desktop? [22:06] if so, then just right click the network icon in your toolbar to setup static ip [22:13] So 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] And yes, same as 88. :) [22:24] MythbuntuGuest55, you shouldn't have needed to use envy to enable graphics. it's offered in the hardware drivers tool [22:25] if it WASNT offered in that tool, your card isn't supported [22:25] and that's a bug that envy was offering to support it [22:29] My card has been supported by previous Ubuntu installs, I'm confused why it apparently isn't? [22:34] Yeah 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... [22:35] I 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? [23:18] good evening [23:18] does mythbuntu live have support for mantis cards? [23:19] I have been trying to get x11vnc to support different desktops [23:19] I would like to be able to connect on :0 for my main and :1 for a new desktop [23:19] I am unable to get this working, anyone know how to do this? [23:24] hm trying to use this "xvfb" package [23:45] well this works some what [23:45] x11vnc -auth /home/mike/.vnc/passwd -display :1 -create -shared -forever [23:58] still no luck, if anyone knows how to do this PM me, ill be sitting in here. Thanks for the help.
