=== aliby_ is now known as aliby === Casper0082 is now known as kc [03:40] hi, im trying to install mythtv, but the graphical installer is not detecting my hard drives - they show up in gparted [03:40] ubuntu: launch a terminal and run this: sudp apt-get remove dmraid [03:40] then start the installer again [03:41] 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] im running off a usb disk [03:41] same applies [03:42] thanks, that worked [03:45] np [03:48] rhpot1991, how'd you know it was dmraid issue? [03:48] and i wonder if there is a better way for us to handle that kind of problem [03:49] superm1: I hit it here [03:49] its an amd64 iso issue IIRC [03:49] effects all of ubuntu [03:49] not just us [03:49] but not i386? [03:49] I think its amd64 only, not positive [03:49] superm1: gparted will see your drives but the partitioner doesn't [03:50] so you remove that install and everything should be fine [03:50] this should be in the "known issues" page [03:50] mrand: I was just thinking we should doc it somewhere [03:50] http://www.mythbuntu.org/9.10/release [03:50] [www.mythbuntu.org] Mythbuntu 9.10 Release Notes | Mythbuntu [03:50] is it on the ubuntu known issues page? [03:51] 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] superm1: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/910 [03:51] [www.ubuntu.com] 9.10 Release Notes | Ubuntu [03:51] Don't know how often that is updated after the release occurs [03:51] not there [03:52] i've not heard anything about this to this point until tonight [03:52] superm1: I also saw word indicating it may effect multiple disk systems more than singles [03:52] I've seen it on both here though [03:54] BoT wins again btw [03:54] superm1: every tuesday [03:54] I've been disappointed in scrubs [03:54] also I haven't watched yet [03:54] scrubs is just getting worse and worse every week [03:54] superm1: do I have to revoke old pgp keys from the ubuntu key server? [03:56] rhpot1991, i dunno how that stuff is supposed to work [03:56] never had to do it [03:56] superm1: I have one thats lost forever so I should look into it [06:52] hi, I'm now having problems getting my wireless card working in mythbuntu 0 iwconfig is not registering the card [06:53] the card is a d-link dwl-g510 [07:02] Guest40269, best thing to start out with is checking dmesg for any errors about missing firmware [07:03] Guest40269, if that leads you nowhere, next figure out what driver is supposed to be supporting that card [07:03] dmesg | grep firmware returns nothing [07:04] it might not use the word firmware in the error [07:04] it might be saying "unable to find blah1243.fw" or something like that [07:04] so a cursory glance through for stuff like that would be a good idea still [07:05] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/DWL-G510 [07:05] [help.ubuntu.com] WifiDocs/DWL-G510 - Community Ubuntu Documentation [07:05] so it sounds like mrv8k is the driver that is used for it [07:06] that's an old doc, so the driver might be decent these days [07:06] nothing obvious in dmesg, ill try that webpage [07:12] Back after rebooting trying to get network card working - iwconfig now picks up the card - how do i connect to my network === jakent_ is now known as jakent [10:45] 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] 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 [10:56] first time after a reboot gave same error with code=43 then continued to give code=12 errors [11:17] any help on wireless not working? [11:31] installing aproriate linux-backorts-modules appears to have fixed roblem [16:57] 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? [17:11] jac1d: thats in the frontend setup I believe [17:11] setup > general > maybe 6 pages in [17:12] see if its there otherwise I'll go poke [17:16] OK thanks, I'll take a look [17:16] bbiab [17:19] where is the startup script for the frontend where I put in the enable pulseaudio hack? [17:20] can't believe this still has not made it into the fixes? [17:22] EXPERIMENTALLY_ALLOW_PULSE_AUDIO=1 [17:22] which file does that go in please? [17:26] nvrmind as usual thx [21:39] how does mythbuntu 9.10 do sound? [21:40] same as regular ubuntu 9.10? jackaudio? [21:40] LonEagle, alsa [21:42] so if i have no sound problems with the last release, i should have no sound problems with the new one [21:43] and as a bonus i'll end up with myth .22 [21:43] 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] this is what it gives me: [21:43] 2010-01-20 21:37:09.117 Using runtime prefix = /usr [21:43] 2010-01-20 21:37:09.117 Using configuration directory = /home/john/.mythtv [21:43] 2010-01-20 21:37:09.117 Empty LocalHostName. [21:43] 2010-01-20 21:37:09.122 New DB connection, total: 1 [21:43] 2010-01-20 21:37:09.126 Closing DB connection named 'DBManager0' [21:43] mythcommflag: ERROR: Unable to find DB info for Alien: Directors Cut.mkv [21:43] QSqlDatabasePrivate::removeDatabase: connection 'DBManager0' is still in use, all queries will cease to work. [21:43] the video must be in the database as mythvideo recognises and plays it fine [21:45] johnbergqvist: I'm pretty sure there are only seektables for recordings [21:46] no, it works with videos cos ive tried it before. god knows why it doesnt work now [21:46] rhpot1991: I think if you run mythcommflag on anything, it'll build a seektable [21:47] thats the idea. [21:47] mrand: that might be what I'm thinking of, videos don't get commflagged by default [21:47] rhpot1991: right. [21:47] 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 [21:48] i want to try it with another video and as ive said above, it doesnt work due to that error [21:48] although i did just do a mythfilldatabase and at the beginning it said 'closing DBManager0, so once thats done, it might work [21:50] LonEagle, correct [21:52] 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. [21:53] If i have a video with DTS audio, is it 5.1 or 7.1? [21:53] or whats it most likely to be? [21:54] i'm thinking 5.1 [21:54] cool [21:54] thanks [21:54] at the mo, can mythtv 0.23 downmix that to stereo? [21:55] what are you outputting audio to? [21:55] my stereo downmixes everything [21:55] LonEagle, you dont need a decent sound card, it's just a pain in the ass to enable it on some cards [21:55] superm1: Please watch your language. [21:55] my speakers [21:56] LonEagle, there should be an IEC958 switch hopefully on the alsamixer settings that you can go toggle [21:56] the video is in DTS, and i want to downmix it to stereo, for my speakers [21:56] superm1: i went to look for one and i didn't see it. this was several months ago, though. [21:56] and (i think) im using pulseaudio [21:56] LonEagle, drivers are always evolving. there might be one now [21:57] it's true. maybe i will tell it to do the 9.10 update and look? [21:57] grr its still not reseeking [21:58] LonEagle, you can boot off the live media and just look at the alsamixer there to tell too [21:58] ah good my tv will force a 16:9 signal into pillarbox! [21:58] complete with chopping off the edges and not doing any other scaling! [21:59] ah, sucess! [21:59] i tried --video instead of --file and it seems to be working! [22:02] nope, :( still isnt [22:02] oh well [22:02] thanks anyway [22:05] hmm, am i going to bring my computer to its knees doing high def deinterlacing? [22:13] 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] not with my current config [22:13] only a 7600GS. [22:16] which is xvmc capable, but i don't need xvmc. [23:26] hello all [23:28] 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] would it be easier to do that or just start from scratch? [23:37] i'd think the latter, but i'm no authority [23:37] no need to start from scratch. [23:37] you don't even have to purge ubuntu-desktop [23:38] but it's up to you.
