[01:44] Ok, so i'm having some problems with networking on my MythBuntu frontend, netowrking will not work up until i get onto the desktop, and i know the service starts way before that [04:51] !help [04:51] !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. [04:53] hello just had a question about setting up mythbuntu, I've been having a problem with the mythtv setup, which just opens solid grey boxes or just the outline of the box with no text or visible buttons so I can only exit the setup by pressing randomly. I updated everything that came up under update manager and installed msttcorefonts as well. I still can't figure out why the setup isnt displaying [05:34] MythbuntuGuest63, are you using an ati driver? [05:47] i installed using the open source driver but my video card is ati [05:48] i first tried installing with the 'amd driver' option but when mythbuntu started up it wasnt displaying properly and i couldnt do anything with the system so i reinstalled using the open source driver [06:03] MythbuntuGuest63, there is a bug with the open source driver [06:03] bug 381648 i think [06:03] Bug 381648 in gnome-applets (Ubuntu) "Karmic: Adding system-monitor applet to panel fails to work properly" [Low, Invalid] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/381648 [06:03] no.. [06:04] bug 341898 [06:04] there is a workaround posted in the bug [06:04] Bug 341898 in mythtv "(Needs mesa 529d1d72) MythTV Frontend does not work with RADEON DRI" [Unknown, Invalid] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/341898 [06:05] oh i see [06:05] thanks ill have a read [06:07] look near the bottom because the old PPA workaround isn't applicable [06:09] ok thanks, wow i guess linux + nvidia really is a lot better [06:09] well at some point this bug will be sorted out and -ati won't be half bad [06:09] but nvidia does provide hardware acceleration that ati doesn't [06:12] hm which ill probably need given my system specs [06:13] sorry one other question (quite new to linux), if im adding lines to .sh files, what command am i supposed to use in the command prompt? [06:15] MythbuntuGuest63, i'd open up the editor, "mousepad" on mythbuntu [06:15] gksudo mousepad FILE [06:15] it's a shame you're new and getting a soiled experience because of this bug though :( [06:18] haha yes it is a bit discouraging, especially for a beginner to troubleshoot [07:16] who was looking for a dell mini 9 [07:19] oops wrong room [10:00] what are the couple lines of code i have to edit into a file to get myth tv to work cuz i have an ati video card? === bogus is now known as Guest32494 [18:16] http://images.google.com.au/images?q=ugly%20lady&oe=utf-8&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi [18:16] < There is some motivation for you [19:55] Can MythWeb be used on the latest trunk from the weekly builds? [20:02] should be [20:17] I'm getting an error saying it can't access the data directory. I wanted to make sure it was fixable before I dove in deeper. [20:18] there is a bug with that actually that is fixed with next week's builds [20:18] and will be fixed in karmic [20:18] that directory just needs to be owned by www-data [20:18] which directory is it referring to? [20:18] something I can chmod on I assume? [20:19] chown rather than chmod i think [20:19] look at the last commit to lp:~ubuntu-mythtv/mythplugins/mythplugins-0.22 i think for bzr [20:20] and you can see how it gets fixed [20:27] Do I have to fix those links? http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mythtv/mythplugins/mythplugins-trunk-022/revision/97 [20:27] I see the chgrp www-data on /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/data [20:27] and chmod 775 [20:29] Ultimately I'd like to try out that MythTV for the iPhone web app [20:35] you don't have to fix the links too, that was just a side effect of the way it was done [20:35] just chgrp and chmod
