| fluvvell | I'm looking for the dev working on ltsp diskless side of mythbuntu. I've thought about offering some help if I can be of any, even if its just trialling and debugging. My test installs haven't cut the mustard but I'd like to know there was someone working on it before I put much time into it. | 04:27 |
|---|---|---|
| tgm4883 | fluvvell, let me poke him and see if he is awake | 04:31 |
| fluvvell | great, thanks | 04:31 |
| tgm4883 | he is in germany, so it's pretty early in the morning for him right now | 04:31 |
| fluvvell | oh, right. Does he blog - maybe I could read up first? | 04:32 |
| tgm4883 | i don't think he blogs | 04:32 |
| Egghead | tring to setup diskless server in karic, but when i run ltsp-build-client i get the folloeing error W: Failure trying to run: chroot /opt/ltsp/amd64 /sbin/ldconfig, error: LTSP client installation ended abnormally, any suggestions? | 04:48 |
| tgm4883 | fluvvell, he hasn't responded, my guess is he is asleep | 04:49 |
| fluvvell | ok, no probs. I was just appreciating your own (hardware) setup, noticed you used a treo. I've been on a palm TX and am considering a Pre when (if) they become available. Are you looking that way at all? | 04:51 |
| tgm4883 | nope, when the HTC hero comes out on sprint in Oct, i'm grabbing that | 04:52 |
| tgm4883 | the pre didn't really excite me that much | 04:53 |
| fluvvell | sry, realise that its way OT. Yeah, well its not causing huge ripples anywhere. | 04:53 |
| fluvvell | Thanks for the pointer. Looks like someone else noting ltsp stuff. I havn't even dug through any mcc scripts but I've manually chrooted into the /opt/ltsp {directory} structure and added packages or fixed stuff | 04:57 |
| Egghead | fluvvell, in 9.10? | 05:01 |
| fluvvell | Egghead, yes. Have you used chroot before? | 05:02 |
| fluvvell | Egghead, sorry in 9.04 | 05:02 |
| Egghead | yes and no, just when setting up a diskless client, in hardy and jaunty | 05:02 |
| fluvvell | Egghead, did you have much success in jaunty? I found it hadn't installed much in the way of packages. | 05:03 |
| Egghead | yes, but i had to everything manually | 05:04 |
| fluvvell | I ended up making a full system on a usb stick, one that I intend to replace with a diskless mix as soon as I can debug the problem. | 05:04 |
| Egghead | i might go back to it, if i cant figure if out | 05:05 |
| Egghead | ahh yea im using stick to just boot load | 05:05 |
| Egghead | karmic has many nice additions though i would like ot stick with it | 05:05 |
| fluvvell | Egghead, any idea how many packages you ended up with? I think on the broken ltsp one I had about 540 and on the full install I ended up with 1500 or so, way more than I need but haven't sorted out the dross yet. | 05:06 |
| fluvvell | Egghead, which additions in particular? | 05:06 |
| Egghead | in 9.04, from stripped down the /amd64 directory was 1.5 meg, and after loading it up when to about 3.4 i think | 05:07 |
| Egghead | the themes and plugins | 05:07 |
| fluvvell | Gigabytes I'm assuming? | 05:07 |
| Egghead | and various proggie i like to add like sysinfo | 05:07 |
| Egghead | oops yea | 05:07 |
| fluvvell | I think I ended up with about 3.6 or so too. | 05:08 |
| Egghead | and yea it still booted pretty fast | 05:09 |
| Egghead | oh well ill try re installing and see if that helps :) | 05:10 |
| fluvvell | I've plugged in a usb riser internally and it boots in 30 seconds or so in 9.04 | 05:10 |
| Egghead | what a usb riser? | 05:11 |
| Egghead | my usb stick is old, i was thinking of geting some newer ones that have faster read rates | 05:11 |
| fluvvell | when you take usb from motherboard to the backplane of the box. I've just strapped it internally to the case. | 05:11 |
| Egghead | oh ic | 05:12 |
| fluvvell | yeah, well these ones have peaked at about 18Mb/s but normally about 8Mb/s | 05:12 |
| fluvvell | The thing is with a gigabit lan you can read at sometimes 22MB per second | 05:12 |
| Egghead | ahh nice | 05:13 |
| fluvvell | So I want to perservere with the ltsp solution until it works and hopefully help make it better. | 05:13 |
| Egghead | i was thinking of going gig but the routers are kinda expensive | 05:13 |
| fluvvell | routers maybe, but straight switches not too bad | 05:14 |
| Egghead | and some of the hd content is jerky, probably could use gig lan | 05:14 |
| Egghead | yea but i keep my myth vlan'd from rest of network, so id need a router | 05:15 |
| fluvvell | a linux box can serve as a router | 05:15 |
| Egghead | what filled up with nics? | 05:16 |
| Egghead | hehe | 05:16 |
| fluvvell | just two | 05:17 |
| tgm4883 | Egghead, well yea, or just 2 nics and a switch on one of them | 05:17 |
| fluvvell | and plug a switch | 05:17 |
| fluvvell | yes, thanks tgm4883 | 05:17 |
| Egghead | ahhh ic | 05:17 |
| Egghead | i guess it would work to keep to lans seperated | 05:18 |
| Egghead | i like my router cuz it can vlan and of the 24 ports | 05:18 |
| fluvvell | I also have a 4 port nic which has come in handy, but yeah if you want to seperate them. Your router probably runs linux anyway ! | 05:18 |
| Egghead | im not sure its an adtran | 05:19 |
| Egghead | probably | 05:19 |
| Egghead | with your gig lan, you whatch hd videos? | 05:20 |
| fluvvell | yeah, I've watched a trailer or two but not a full length. You should be able to watch HD on 100Mb though. | 05:23 |
| tgm4883 | yea, HD plays fine over 100Mb, 1080i and 720p anyway, not sure about 1080p | 05:24 |
| fluvvell | An h264 encoded HD 1080i uses only about 17Mb/s (whoops got to take daughter for a quick driving lesson) ... | 05:25 |
| Egghead | yea i start getting small pauses with anthing over 9 gig in size with like a 2hour movie | 05:26 |
| tgm4883 | strange, that shouldn't be happening | 05:26 |
| Egghead | ok well talk to ya later fluvvell | 05:26 |
| Egghead | i thought it was netwotk thoughput | 05:27 |
| tgm4883 | well it does sound like you aren't getting data fast enough | 05:27 |
| Egghead | might be the file server too, its an amd 1.8 gig, kinda old | 05:28 |
| tgm4883 | nope, that should be fine | 05:28 |
| tgm4883 | what are your transfer speeds like between the two machines/ | 05:29 |
| Egghead | i dont remeber, i ran i think netstat, but it was a while back | 05:29 |
| Egghead | i had to rebuild the server a while back, cuz the raid 5 crashed, so now im just running reg drives :) | 05:30 |
| Egghead | well goota get some sleep, good talking with ya | 05:33 |
| Egghead | night | 05:34 |
| `oobe` | is it true karmic koala wont have stable current version of mythtv only trunk | 06:14 |
| superm1 | by the time karmic releases the stable version will be 0.22 | 06:15 |
| `oobe` | really they have a eta | 06:16 |
| `oobe` | that seems unlike mythtv developers | 06:16 |
| superm1 | 2-3 weeks | 06:17 |
| `oobe` | do you know if juanty will just upgrade using current mythbuntu repos? | 06:18 |
| superm1 | not automatically | 06:18 |
| superm1 | we'll be setting up another ppa for 0.22 | 06:18 |
| `oobe` | ok nice | 06:19 |
| `oobe` | im using avenard repos though | 06:19 |
| `oobe` | just thought of that | 06:19 |
| superm1 | he messed up the epoch i think | 06:20 |
| superm1 | so you might have troubles | 06:20 |
| `oobe` | what is epoch | 06:21 |
| superm1 | he messed up the version number | 06:23 |
| superm1 | his version has a 2: at the start, so it's automatically bigger than anything | 06:23 |
| `oobe` | oh ok | 06:24 |
| `oobe` | i like some of his patches thats why i use it | 06:24 |
| `oobe` | but i find it can be a little buggy with playback of some files | 06:24 |
| `oobe` | also it used to not start backend properly on most boots i had to add a couple of lines to rc.local to make it work properly | 06:25 |
| `oobe` | but recently removed those lines and it starts up fine now | 06:25 |
| superm1 | if you want to go to 0.22 and karmic, it would probably be easiest to back up your database, and just install from scratch when karmic releases | 06:32 |
| `oobe` | yea i will most likely end up doing that | 06:33 |
| `oobe` | what if i upgraded juanty > karmic would i end up with .21 packages not upgraded | 06:34 |
| superm1 | Yup | 06:34 |
| superm1 | if he has a messed up version number, that's what will happen | 06:34 |
| `oobe` | MythTV Version : 21583-openglvdpau2-nv180 | 06:35 |
| `oobe` | is that why once i tried to purge his packages and i ended up not being able to install mythbuntu repos correctly | 06:37 |
| superm1 | Yup | 06:38 |
| `oobe` | maybe it will work out cause his site says he will be adding .22 soon | 06:39 |
| `oobe` | plus i want to keep this system as i have a lot of other things configured besides mythtv | 06:39 |
| superm1 | well the other thing is you can downgrade packages in synaptic to get back to the right versions | 06:39 |
| `oobe` | so upgrading would be prefered | 06:39 |
| `oobe` | oh ok | 06:40 |
| superm1 | either before or after you upgrade to karmic | 06:40 |
| superm1 | it's just a little bit of a pain in the ass | 06:40 |
| Zinn | superm1: Please watch your language. | 06:40 |
| `oobe` | yeah thats a good point | 06:40 |
| `oobe` | is Zinn a bot | 06:40 |
| superm1 | Yeah | 06:40 |
| `oobe` | thats good | 06:40 |
| `oobe` | i would hate to think a human had that sort of response time | 06:41 |
| superm1 | haha | 06:41 |
| `oobe` | and was that vigilant and overzealous | 06:41 |
| superm1 | once karmic releases, we'll probably have to get a little snippet response for telling people a one line command to downgrade packages | 06:41 |
| superm1 | but we'll need to know the final versions that karmic launches with before we can write such a thing | 06:41 |
| Gumby | !help | 06:55 |
| Zinn | !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. | 06:55 |
| `oobe` | thanks superm1 | 08:11 |

| Aijse | My front end is allready 9.04 and had initial problems when opening mythtv | 16:13 |
| rhpot1991 | Aijse: shouldn't be too many issues, I'd backup your db ahead of time just to be safe though | 16:29 |
