[00:57] <drmacro> anybody around?
[02:57] <pteague> er, um... ok - http://pastebin.com/SUnLaMCP ...  unable to find any value for drive_total_total or drive_total_used ?
[02:59] <innatech> has anyone had experience configuring a 4-output serial port IR blaster with lircd for myth? I've been trying to read the docs and mailing lists but my head is swimming.
[03:01] <innatech> pteague -- does df return usable output?
[03:01] <innatech> pteague -- i.e. "df -m -c /dev/yourharddrivehere"
[03:02] <innatech> pteague -- make that "df -m --total /dev/yourharddrivehere"
[03:03] <pteague> yes, i think i realized what the problem was... for some reason since updating from hardy -> intrepid -> jaunty -> koala the original directories are now owned by mysql:mysql ... wtf??
[03:04] <pteague> um... not sure because now i'm still getting the errors... let me run your commands
[03:04] <pteague> http://pastebin.com/ZA4Y5u5i
[03:06] <innatech> looks fairly normal to me.
[03:09] <innatech> I don't have anything called mythtv-status on my Karmic install, btw.
[03:09] <pteague> it's just odd because it recorded 2 shows just fine the other day within an hour of finishing the update to koala... & i don't remember changing permissions on them since then... let me check what i did with samba
[03:11] <pteague> nope, those are right... so i didn't screw with it on that shell script
[03:11] <innatech> does it work from a root shell?
[03:11] <pteague> do `aptitude show mythtv-status` ;)
[03:12] <pteague> haven't tried that, let me see
[03:12] <pteague> nope, same issue running mythtv-status as root
[03:12] <innatech> let me see if it works as installed on my box.
[03:13] <innatech> throws me the same error.
[03:13] <innatech> mythtv-status
[03:14] <innatech> "Unable...Total Disk Space"
[03:14] <innatech> But the rest works.
[03:15] <innatech> So, maybe it needs an update?
[03:15] <pteague> maybe so
[03:16] <pteague> i was running it to see what was going on...  star trek was on my recorded list, went to play it & no file... was trying to see how much time i had before the next show started (hence mythtv-status) to see if i needed to reboot it... i've had issues with my pvr-500 driver crashing for 2nd tuner (1st is really rare, but it happened once or twice) & only way i know to fix it is reboot
[03:17] <pteague> i'm hoping it's only the ownership issues ;)
[03:17] <innatech> gotcha. Did you check the logs to see if it complained about being unable to create the file?
[03:19] <pteague> haven't gotten that far yet
[03:24] <pteague> have 33 rows of "! Warning - Creating an instance caused and error for one of: MythTV, MythVideo or MythDB" in /var/log/mythtv/jamu.log
[18:33] <cr3> hi folks, I used to preseed mythbuntu with the following values: http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/NRPS2GiT
[18:33] <cr3> however, I now get prompted for the xorg driver (step 1 of 12 when both open source and proprietary drivers are available) or for the master something (step 1 of 11)
[18:34] <cr3> anyone happen to have a convenient preseed to automate the installation of mythbuntu?
[18:37] <cr3> sorry, I didn't mention: the above pastebin worked fine on karmic but I'd appreciate an update for lucid :)
[18:38] <superm1> cr3, hmm...
[18:38] <superm1> you didn't get prompted in karmic for a driver when both were available?
[18:39] <cr3> superm1: maybe I didn't look closely enough on systems which had support for proprietary drivers, so I could be wrong regarding karmic
[18:40] <cr3> superm1: I'll try to get it right this time though :)
[18:40] <superm1> cr3, well try to preseed mythbuntu/video_driver to "Open Source Driver" if you want the open source driver on these systems
[18:40] <superm1> (or if you want one that will work on all systems)
[18:40] <cr3> superm1: the value is either that or a specific name, like "AMD" for example, right? I couldn't specify a generic "Proprietary" or somesuch to work on all systems?
[18:41] <superm1> cr3, well it's the exact same string that gets presented in the GUI
[18:41] <cr3> superm1: gotcha
[18:41] <superm1> but all systems will have "Open Source Driver"
[18:42] <superm1> the GUI is populating it from a combination of nvidia-common/nvidia-detector/mythbuntu-common
[18:43] <superm1> if you are still getting stuck on the page asking for master something, try to preseed mythtv/mysql_mythtv_user to 0000
[18:49] <cr3> hm, I tried adding this to my preseed file and I still get prompted: ubiquity mythbuntu/video_driver string Open Source Driver
[18:50]  * cr3 steps out for lunch, bbl
[18:53] <superm1> cr3, Okay, next thing then; preseed both mythbuntu/tvout and mythbuntu/tvstandard to "Disable TV-Out"
[19:36] <cr3> superm1: awesome, that worked! now, can I preseed Master Backend Connection somehow? should this be handled by: ubiquity mythbuntu/install_type string Master Backend/Frontend
[19:38] <superm1> cr3, that's the mythtv/mysql_mythtv_user to 0000
[19:38] <superm1> its in addition to ubiquity/mythbuntu_install_type
[19:39] <superm1> cr3, would you consider adding your preseed to mythbuntu-live-autostart so we can install it as an example for people to use in the future?
[19:39] <superm1> it could be shipped on the media then in usr/share/docs, and you can just refer to it from the kernel command line without needing to provide it on the internet or elsewhere
[19:46] <cr3> mythtv/mysql_mythtv_user worked, but it seems strange that all the other preseed keys start with mythbuntu whereas this one starts with mythtv
[19:46] <cr3> superm1: sure, it would be my pleasure to provide my preseed for this release as well as future releases
[19:47] <cr3> superm1: it would be nice if this were provided in a standard way as a template for everyone to use and abuse :)
[19:57] <cr3> superm1: do you happen to know if there's a way to skip the configure guide data wizard?
[21:47] <superm1> cr3, there isn't a way right now, but it's possible maybe to add something like that
[21:47] <superm1> cr3, just add your preseed to a bug against mythbuntu-live-autostart ubuntu package or if you want a merge request
[22:17] <metalac> anyone knows why trying to install libvdpau1 it wants to remove mythtv?
[22:17] <metalac> libdvdpa is required by nvidia 195 driver
[22:26] <cr3> superm1: sure, I'm juggling a few things right now but I'll remember to report a bug and I'll ping you when done
[22:39] <superm1> metalac, you have to enable autobuilds to use the 195 driver
[22:40] <superm1> (or use lucid)
