| ahughes | hey guys, just trying to install xchat.... but it's not in the list of packages. At first I thought this was because I was using 'quick search' but a full search fails to find it. Also, if I try 'apt-get install xchat' it seens like apt doesnt have access to a repo with xchat in it... with error "E: Coundn't find package xchat". What might be the problem? | 02:50 |
|---|---|---|
| ahughes | bwt: searching in synaptic | 02:50 |
| ahughes | w00t I reloaded the repo packages and it found it :) | 02:53 |
| Essobi | WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE | 14:50 |
| Dunkirk | Is anyone familiar with how the vnc service works on mythbuntu? | 15:04 |
| Dunkirk | I thought it was working, and now it's not. | 15:04 |
| Dunkirk | (As in, the one that you can enable from the mythbuntu-control-centre.) | 15:05 |
| Shadow__X | hello everyone i am on mythbuntu 9.10 and mythtv .22 mythtv-status works fine but it is not being displayed on the motd when i log into the machine through ssh | 16:18 |
| CShadowRun | Hi, I'm trying to setup FreeSat on my new MythTV box, I've sucessfully scanned for channels, but all the numbers are scrambled, and i have no guide information from EIT :( | 16:55 |
| CShadowRun | using a fresh install of mythbuntu | 16:56 |
| jsheezy | does anyone have an answer to why my coverart keeps disappearing yet my fan art does not in mythvideo? | 17:28 |
| henkpoley | jsheezy: Got anything running periodically that "fixes" coverart that might overwrite the images? | 17:52 |
| jsheezy | not that i know of... I updated the repositories to fix the movies from not running renaming themselves | 17:53 |
| henkpoley | jsheezy: specificaly http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Jamu might do that (?) | 17:53 |
| Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] Jamu - MythTV | 17:53 |
| jsheezy | i don't think i am running that script. the coverart is still there... i just have to select it again. | 17:54 |
| henkpoley | So you mean, somehow it doesn't get stored in the database ? | 17:54 |
| henkpoley | Or does is stick 2-3 reboots and then disappears? | 17:55 |
| jsheezy | no reboots... out of 24 videos maybe 3 will stick.. the others disappear after a day or two | 17:55 |
| henkpoley | You run mythtv-0.22 from ubuntu repositories or nightlies/build yourself ? | 17:58 |
| henkpoley | Tried checking the database? I mean executing a 'repair', mythtv has some scripts to do that: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/User_Manual:Periodic_Maintenance#Optimize_the_Database | 17:59 |
| Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] User Manual:Periodic Maintenance - MythTV | 17:59 |
| henkpoley | The script is probably located elsewhere on your system, try `locate optimize_mythdb.pl` | 18:00 |
| jsheezy | i set up the repositories from mythbuntu control center. | 18:00 |
| jsheezy | i have activate Mythbuntu Auto Builds Repo checked. | 18:01 |
| henkpoley | Yeah, but I believe you can set them up from there to grab the experimental/unstable/nigtlies version too | 18:01 |
| henkpoley | ah.. yes that's the one | 18:01 |
| henkpoley | When you breaks you can have the pieces ;-) | 18:01 |
| jsheezy | i don't have the testing one checked | 18:01 |
| henkpoley | Try lurking here (or elsewhere) if one of the developers comes by | 18:02 |
| jsheezy | are you saying it's broke? it is frustrating because when i choose the correct art it show the path, when it disappears it shows just the image name | 18:03 |
| henkpoley | Anyways, you should at least check if there is anything broken with your database, or that something is mentioned in the frontend/backend logs | 18:03 |
| henkpoley | jsheezy: I don't know if it is broken, it is just that you have installed the version that they are still working on | 18:04 |
| henkpoley | So things break and get fixed and break again because it's not finished | 18:04 |
| henkpoley | You might be more successful asking on the mythbuntu forums or the mythtv-users mailinglist | 18:04 |
| jsheezy | that is the version we were told to put in because of previous bugs... oh well i will continue to lurk here. thanks man! | 18:04 |
| henkpoley | on the mailinglist they will probably tell you if you run the development version you should be a developer | 18:05 |
| henkpoley | ..or at least that you should follow mythtv-dev | 18:05 |
| henkpoley | I'll be away now | 18:06 |
| jsheezy | thank you henkpoley | 18:06 |
| tgm4883 | henkpoley, auto-builds is daily builds of -fixes or trunk. If he is on 0.22, it's fixes | 18:11 |
| tgm4883 | which is not only for developers | 18:11 |
| tgm4883 | I would guess a problem with Jamu | 18:12 |
| CShadowRun | Hi, I'm trying to setup FreeSat on my new MythTV box, I've sucessfully scanned for channels, but all the numbers are scrambled, and i have no guide information from EIT :( | 18:16 |
| jsheezy | tgm4883: how do i check the Jamu thing? | 18:19 |
| jsheezy | is there a way to stop Jamu or remove it. it seems to be causing my problem. | 18:28 |
| tgm4883 | jsheezy, I think it's just a cron job in /etc/cron.hourly/ and /etc/cron.daily/ | 18:37 |
| CShadowRun | yay, i broke it | 18:44 |
| CShadowRun | tried to use Radio times for schedule information, and now it's stuck running mythfilldatabase | 18:45 |
| CShadowRun | what should i do? | 18:45 |
| jsheezy | tgm4883, thanks... I will see how that works. | 19:12 |
| Dunkirk | Anyone here know what turning on the "vnc service" in Mythbuntu actually does behind the scenes (from mythbuntu_control_centre)? | 19:52 |
| Dunkirk | Also, on the -fixes, if you take the nightlies repo out of apt, will the system automatically downgrade the myth packages on an apt-get upgrade? | 19:53 |
| tgm4883 | Dunkirk, no it will not downgrade | 19:54 |
| tgm4883 | well, it won't autodowngrade | 19:55 |
| tgm4883 | you could force a package version in synaptic | 19:55 |
| Dunkirk | tgm4883, The "pinning" business? | 19:55 |
| tgm4883 | could be | 19:56 |
| tgm4883 | i haven't done it in awhile | 19:56 |
| Dunkirk | Hrm. I've seen mythfilldatabase segfaults in my logs, and I want to just revert to the "stable" stuff. | 19:56 |
| tgm4883 | you don't think the auto-builds are stable? | 19:57 |
| superm1 | Dunkirk, you can look at the source ya know :) | 19:57 |
| superm1 | Dunkirk, but it's basically installing x11vnc and saving the password you put in MCC in ~/.vncpasswd | 19:57 |
| Dunkirk | Sure, I can write my own operating system, too. | 19:57 |
| tgm4883 | it should just be from the -fixes branch, which isn't the same as trunk | 19:57 |
| Dunkirk | superm1, That's what I've taken from the process, and then inferred that if the login / xfce session stuff senses a ~/.vnc/passwd, it starts x11vnc, but it's not working any more. | 19:58 |
| superm1 | Dunkirk, yeah /usr/share/mythbuntu/session.sh checks for the vncpasswd file | 19:59 |
| Dunkirk | I'm coming from Gentoo, so getting used to having stuff done for me is... unsettling. If it breaks, I don't know what it's doing behind the scenes. | 19:59 |
| Dunkirk | superm1, Bingo. Thanks for that. | 19:59 |
| superm1 | Dunkirk, http://mythbuntu.org/cheatsheet | 19:59 |
| Zinn | [mythbuntu.org] Developer Cheatsheet | Mythbuntu | 19:59 |
| Dunkirk | Woah. Cool. | 19:59 |
| superm1 | explains a lot of what's going on behind the scenes if you want to see | 19:59 |
| Dunkirk | superm1, THANKS! | 20:00 |
| superm1 | np Dunkirk, have fun. | 20:17 |
