ubuntu | hi, im trying to install mythtv, but the graphical installer is not detecting my hard drives - they show up in gparted | 03:40 |
---|---|---|
rhpot1991 | ubuntu: launch a terminal and run this: sudp apt-get remove dmraid | 03:40 |
rhpot1991 | then start the installer again | 03:40 |
rhpot1991 | you will need to be in the live cd environment for this, if you aren't there cancel the installation and it will throw you there | 03:41 |
ubuntu | im running off a usb disk | 03:41 |
rhpot1991 | same applies | 03:41 |
ubuntu | thanks, that worked | 03:42 |
rhpot1991 | np | 03:45 |
superm1 | rhpot1991, how'd you know it was dmraid issue? | 03:48 |
superm1 | and i wonder if there is a better way for us to handle that kind of problem | 03:48 |
rhpot1991 | superm1: I hit it here | 03:49 |
rhpot1991 | its an amd64 iso issue IIRC | 03:49 |
rhpot1991 | effects all of ubuntu | 03:49 |
rhpot1991 | not just us | 03:49 |
superm1 | but not i386? | 03:49 |
rhpot1991 | I think its amd64 only, not positive | 03:49 |
rhpot1991 | superm1: gparted will see your drives but the partitioner doesn't | 03:49 |
rhpot1991 | so you remove that install and everything should be fine | 03:50 |
mrand | this should be in the "known issues" page | 03:50 |
rhpot1991 | mrand: I was just thinking we should doc it somewhere | 03:50 |
mrand | http://www.mythbuntu.org/9.10/release | 03:50 |
Zinn | [www.mythbuntu.org] Mythbuntu 9.10 Release Notes | Mythbuntu | 03:50 |
superm1 | is it on the ubuntu known issues page? | 03:50 |
rhpot1991 | superm1: I've seen people saying that setting AHCI (I might have the letters off) mode in the bios helps too, but it didn't help on any of my boxens | 03:51 |
mrand | superm1: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910 | 03:51 |
Zinn | [www.ubuntu.com] 9.10 Release Notes | Ubuntu | 03:51 |
mrand | Don't know how often that is updated after the release occurs | 03:51 |
superm1 | not there | 03:51 |
superm1 | i've not heard anything about this to this point until tonight | 03:52 |
rhpot1991 | superm1: I also saw word indicating it may effect multiple disk systems more than singles | 03:52 |
rhpot1991 | I've seen it on both here though | 03:52 |
superm1 | BoT wins again btw | 03:54 |
rhpot1991 | superm1: every tuesday | 03:54 |
rhpot1991 | I've been disappointed in scrubs | 03:54 |
rhpot1991 | also I haven't watched yet | 03:54 |
superm1 | scrubs is just getting worse and worse every week | 03:54 |
rhpot1991 | superm1: do I have to revoke old pgp keys from the ubuntu key server? | 03:54 |
superm1 | rhpot1991, i dunno how that stuff is supposed to work | 03:56 |
superm1 | never had to do it | 03:56 |
rhpot1991 | superm1: I have one thats lost forever so I should look into it | 03:56 |
Guest40269 | hi, I'm now having problems getting my wireless card working in mythbuntu 0 iwconfig is not registering the card | 06:52 |
Guest40269 | the card is a d-link dwl-g510 | 06:53 |
superm1 | Guest40269, best thing to start out with is checking dmesg for any errors about missing firmware | 07:02 |
superm1 | Guest40269, if that leads you nowhere, next figure out what driver is supposed to be supporting that card | 07:03 |
Guest40269 | dmesg | grep firmware returns nothing | 07:03 |
superm1 | it might not use the word firmware in the error | 07:04 |
superm1 | it might be saying "unable to find blah1243.fw" or something like that | 07:04 |
superm1 | so a cursory glance through for stuff like that would be a good idea still | 07:04 |
superm1 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/DWL-G510 | 07:05 |
Zinn | [help.ubuntu.com] WifiDocs/DWL-G510 - Community Ubuntu Documentation | 07:05 |
superm1 | so it sounds like mrv8k is the driver that is used for it | 07:05 |
superm1 | that's an old doc, so the driver might be decent these days | 07:06 |
Guest40269 | nothing obvious in dmesg, ill try that webpage | 07:06 |

john2 | hey again - Im having problems getting a wireless card to connect to my network - wicd reports unable to get IP address and dmesg shows wlan0:AP denied assosciation (code=12) Tried google, only many mentions of bug, couldn't find a solution | 10:50 |
john2 | first time after a reboot gave same error with code=43 then continued to give code=12 errors | 10:56 |
john23 | any help on wireless not working? | 11:17 |
john23 | installing aproriate linux-backorts-modules appears to have fixed roblem | 11:31 |
jac1d | Good day all. I have a mythbuntu 9.10 install and I noticed last night that the schedulesdirect data isn't updating automatically. I went in to the back end and couldn't find any settings in relation to it. When I exited, it prompted me, as normal to update, which I did, but it is still not updating automatically over night. Do I need to do something special to enable this? | 16:57 |
rhpot1991 | jac1d: thats in the frontend setup I believe | 17:11 |
rhpot1991 | setup > general > maybe 6 pages in | 17:11 |
rhpot1991 | see if its there otherwise I'll go poke | 17:12 |
jac1d | OK thanks, I'll take a look | 17:16 |
jac1d | bbiab | 17:16 |
darthanubis | where is the startup script for the frontend where I put in the enable pulseaudio hack? | 17:19 |
darthanubis | can't believe this still has not made it into the fixes? | 17:20 |
darthanubis | EXPERIMENTALLY_ALLOW_PULSE_AUDIO=1 | 17:22 |
darthanubis | which file does that go in please? | 17:22 |
darthanubis | nvrmind as usual thx | 17:26 |
LonEagle | how does mythbuntu 9.10 do sound? | 21:39 |
LonEagle | same as regular ubuntu 9.10? jackaudio? | 21:40 |
superm1 | LonEagle, alsa | 21:40 |
LonEagle | so if i have no sound problems with the last release, i should have no sound problems with the new one | 21:42 |
LonEagle | and as a bonus i'll end up with myth .22 | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | hi guys, whenever i try to rebuild a seektable (im using mythbuntu x64 karmic with the 0.23 repository), it wont let me do it. | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | this is what it gives me: | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | 2010-01-20 21:37:09.117 Using runtime prefix = /usr | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | 2010-01-20 21:37:09.117 Using configuration directory = /home/john/.mythtv | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | 2010-01-20 21:37:09.117 Empty LocalHostName. | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | 2010-01-20 21:37:09.122 New DB connection, total: 1 | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | 2010-01-20 21:37:09.126 Closing DB connection named 'DBManager0' | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | mythcommflag: ERROR: Unable to find DB info for Alien: Directors Cut.mkv | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | QSqlDatabasePrivate::removeDatabase: connection 'DBManager0' is still in use, all queries will cease to work. | 21:43 |
johnbergqvist | the video must be in the database as mythvideo recognises and plays it fine | 21:43 |
rhpot1991 | johnbergqvist: I'm pretty sure there are only seektables for recordings | 21:45 |
johnbergqvist | no, it works with videos cos ive tried it before. god knows why it doesnt work now | 21:46 |
mrand | rhpot1991: I think if you run mythcommflag on anything, it'll build a seektable | 21:46 |
johnbergqvist | thats the idea. | 21:47 |
rhpot1991 | mrand: that might be what I'm thinking of, videos don't get commflagged by default | 21:47 |
mrand | rhpot1991: right. | 21:47 |
johnbergqvist | well i first tried it because the wiki said if your having problems seeking your videos, rebuild the seektable, i did it and it worked | 21:47 |
johnbergqvist | i want to try it with another video and as ive said above, it doesnt work due to that error | 21:48 |
johnbergqvist | although i did just do a mythfilldatabase and at the beginning it said 'closing DBManager0, so once thats done, it might work | 21:48 |
superm1 | LonEagle, correct | 21:50 |
LonEagle | though, i have not had any success with getting spdif audio out of this cheap soundcard i bought. thought it was a no-brainer, but apparently i might need to buy a decent sound card for spdif. | 21:52 |
johnbergqvist | If i have a video with DTS audio, is it 5.1 or 7.1? | 21:53 |
johnbergqvist | or whats it most likely to be? | 21:53 |
LonEagle | i'm thinking 5.1 | 21:54 |
johnbergqvist | cool | 21:54 |
johnbergqvist | thanks | 21:54 |
johnbergqvist | at the mo, can mythtv 0.23 downmix that to stereo? | 21:54 |
LonEagle | what are you outputting audio to? | 21:55 |
LonEagle | my stereo downmixes everything | 21:55 |
superm1 | LonEagle, you dont need a decent sound card, it's just a pain in the ass to enable it on some cards | 21:55 |
Zinn | superm1: Please watch your language. | 21:55 |
johnbergqvist | my speakers | 21:55 |
superm1 | LonEagle, there should be an IEC958 switch hopefully on the alsamixer settings that you can go toggle | 21:56 |
johnbergqvist | the video is in DTS, and i want to downmix it to stereo, for my speakers | 21:56 |
LonEagle | superm1: i went to look for one and i didn't see it. this was several months ago, though. | 21:56 |
johnbergqvist | and (i think) im using pulseaudio | 21:56 |
superm1 | LonEagle, drivers are always evolving. there might be one now | 21:56 |
LonEagle | it's true. maybe i will tell it to do the 9.10 update and look? | 21:57 |
johnbergqvist | grr its still not reseeking | 21:57 |
superm1 | LonEagle, you can boot off the live media and just look at the alsamixer there to tell too | 21:58 |
LonEagle | ah good my tv will force a 16:9 signal into pillarbox! | 21:58 |
LonEagle | complete with chopping off the edges and not doing any other scaling! | 21:58 |
johnbergqvist | ah, sucess! | 21:59 |
johnbergqvist | i tried --video instead of --file and it seems to be working! | 21:59 |
johnbergqvist | nope, :( still isnt | 22:02 |
johnbergqvist | oh well | 22:02 |
johnbergqvist | thanks anyway | 22:02 |
LonEagle | hmm, am i going to bring my computer to its knees doing high def deinterlacing? | 22:05 |
mrand | LonEagle: depends on your CPU type & speed. And there are different deinterlacers. Only way to know is to try. And then you can throw GPU offloading into the mix. | 22:13 |
LonEagle | not with my current config | 22:13 |
LonEagle | only a 7600GS. | 22:13 |
LonEagle | which is xvmc capable, but i don't need xvmc. | 22:16 |
luckyone | hello all | 23:26 |
luckyone | quick question, if I wanted to switch from ubuntu to mythbuntu could I just apt-get install mythbuntu-desktop && apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop? | 23:28 |
luckyone | would it be easier to do that or just start from scratch? | 23:28 |
LonEagle | i'd think the latter, but i'm no authority | 23:37 |
mrand | no need to start from scratch. | 23:37 |
mrand | you don't even have to purge ubuntu-desktop | 23:37 |
mrand | but it's up to you. | 23:38 |
