bllzzI noticed mythbuntu 9.10 has ext4 as the default filesystem.  I always thought that the ext's had issues with large files (particularly when deleting them).  Is this still the case with ext4?  Should I use xfs instead?04:05
mrandbllz: ext4 doesn't have most of the problems ext3 did, so it's considered close enough to an all purpose filesystem to be the default.04:07
bllzzmrand:  oh that's good news.  I also remember that my beloved xfs did have issues with smaller files04:07
mrandIf you look around at benchmarks, you'll see that xfs is technically better on some things, ext3 is better on other things, and ext4 is better on a few things.04:07
bllzzso maybe i'll give ext4 a whirl04:07

darraghI can't seem to watch TV on my setup, using Hauppague PVR-150, logs are at http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/f7b46d3317:16
darraghMythtv justs says "Please Wait" and returns to the main menu after 15-20 seconds17:18
rhpot1991darragh: did you actually set up the tuner in mythtv-setup?18:02
rhpot1991if you look in mythweb or the system info under the frontend, does it list the tuner18:03
darraghrhpot1991: Yes, and it scanned 24 channels18:20
darraghrhpot1991: It's listed under Info Centre->System Status->Tuner Status18:22
darraghin the frontend18:22
mranddarragh: do you have a channel changer script set?  I'm guessing analog PVR-150 doesn't need one.18:40
darraghmrand: No changer script, using analogue tuner18:42
mranddarragh: right.  I was asking if one got configured on accident.  If it found 24 channels while scanning, it doesn't make much sense that it wouldn't find them now unless something else changed.  A few other things to try: make sure the video is visible via some other non-myth player, and maybe try to set it to record something later.  LiveTV sometimes behaves slightly differently than recorded TV.19:05
darraghmrand: I am trying it in XawTV but just getting static, can't seem to tune the frequencies19:06
wilberfani'm about to set up an ubuntu system, to which i will end up adding mythtv...  what kind of partitioning is recommended?19:21
wilberfani know there should be a storage partition of jfs or xfs...19:21
wilberfanthis will be a backend AND frontend box...19:22
mrandwilberfan: with ext4 available, the reasons for using jfs or xfs are less.  jfs and xfs have slightly better performance, but ext4 does much better than ext3.  The main reason(s) for partitioning have fallen back to the same as before: being able to unmount them for whatever reason (be it reinstalls, maintenance, or something else), and to control what happens should a particular filesystem fills up (be it /tmp, or /var/log, or /var/l19:34
wilberfannot counting the recording space, what partition sizes are we looking at?19:40
