McNeveranybody up for some fun with firewire?00:14
McNeverbackend is detecting my STB, or at least it sees the ID, but i'm not getting a channel lock00:15
McNeveri assume if its seeing the GUID my firewire card and the port on the cable box are ok00:16
McNeverand its more of a config/compatibility issue within myth then00:16
McNeveronly thing i appear to be getting in my logs are a bunch of "LFireDev(001E6B7F9F240000), Warning: No Input in ### S" errors00:20
dedihey. i just installed 10.4 beta. after changing the frontend skin i cant access several "pages" in the frontend, one of them is the apearance settings so i cant change it back. i deleted .mythtv in home, dont know how to reset the skin00:41
dedii also tried purging package mythtv-frontend, did not help. so please tell me how to reset the skin or whole frontend config00:47
superm1there is a frontend option for it00:50
superm1mythfrontend --help00:50
dediperfect, thanks superm1 :)00:52

ZykoticK9Last night I installed Mythbuntu Lucid Beta1 on my htpc box, I have nvidia and tried to select using the closed source driver from the installer (perhaps this was the problem?), but after install Xorg would not start.  I just installed Ubuntu beta1 and Xorg worked fine.  Nvidia 6150 (onboard), anyone else reporting similar?01:54
superm1ZykoticK9, does it work if you enable the nvidia driver post-install using the hardware drivers tool?02:09
ZykoticK9superm1, i'm affraid I can't test as i now have Ubuntu installed (I will probably reinstall Mythbuntu to test again), I was totally unable to get into Xorg with the Mythbuntu install (tried with and without Xorg, but X didn't start) - on reinstall i'm certainly going to select the Open Source option for nvidia.02:16
superm1ZykoticK9, okay great.  if you can identify that's the option causing problems, then we can try to look closer into what's up02:19
ZykoticK9superm1, thanks for the replay (asked a few times today in #ubuntu+1 with links to pastebins with the xorg logs) no one gave a reply02:20
Saviqhi again, any idea how to fight "DVB: Unable to find symbol stv090x_attach()"?02:21
Saviqtwo bugs about it already https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/483618 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/50239302:22
Zinn[bugs.launchpad.net] Bug #483618 in linux (Ubuntu): “TechnoTrend TT-budget S2-1600 init fails”02:22
ZykoticK9superm1, on a perhaps related note - if i chose "Install Ubuntu" from the LiveCD although the main window worked fine, everything else on screen did not update, so dragging the window around left "trailers".  This behaviour did not occur if i used Try Ubuntu then launched the installer.02:22
superm1ZykoticK9, you are referring to the mythbuntu media or the ubuntu media?02:23
ZykoticK9superm1, Mythbuntu - didn't try the install on Ubuntu02:24
superm1ZykoticK9, it's quite possibly a nouveau bug going on here then too02:24
ZykoticK9So it appears that Lucid does not solve Hauppauge HVR-1600 remote not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/454371 I was REALLY hoping it would03:17
Zinn[bugs.launchpad.net] Bug #454371 in lirc (Ubuntu): “Hauppauge HVR-1600 Remote Not Detected”03:17
superm1ZykoticK9, lirc hasn't been touched yet for lucid much, so it's still possible to get fixed03:38
ZykoticK9superm1, well that's "almost" good news ;)03:39
superm1but that's an annoying bug03:39
ZykoticK9tell me about it!03:39
ZykoticK9it worked perfect in 9.04 - since then, not so much03:40
superm1particularly from the perspective of fixing it :)03:40
ZykoticK9that's not what i wanted to hear.03:40
ZykoticK9superm1, and you would happen to be a mythbuntu-dev, so you probably know what your talking about!  bad news for my 1600 i guess.03:43
superm1ZykoticK9, yeah.  i'll take a closer look at it again soon, but its also especially hard to figure out the right solution without having that hardware for doing experiments and looking at details with how the system is handling things03:46
ZykoticK9i can certainly see how not having the h/w would make it MUCH more difficult!03:47
ZykoticK9superm1, so i reinstall mythbuntu - selecting the open source driver from the install works correctly, but once I enabled nvidia-current and rebooted X no longer starts.  Uninstalled nvidia-current rebooted and got into low graphics mode, enabled the 173 driver from jockey rebooted and again X would no longer start.  Any suggestions?04:41
superm1ZykoticK9, well when X doesn't start, do you get a collection of logs to work from at the command line?04:41
superm1er well let me start here..04:42
superm1so it recommended nvidia-current or 173 for you?04:42
ZykoticK9superm1, i can certainly pastebin the xorg.log.0 or similar if you'd like04:42
ZykoticK9it recommended current04:42
superm1okay so that's probably what got installed from the live installer too04:42
superm1so with nvidia-current installed, what you want to do is run "ubuntu-bug nvidia-current" from the command line04:43
superm1and it will file a bug with everything that is needed04:43
ZykoticK9superm1, will do!  right now.04:43
ZykoticK9superm1, submitted bug #544793 but perhaps my already uninstalling nvidia-current will corrupt the bug - I noticed that  "DkmsStatus: nvidia-173" is listed in bug report -- do you think i should mark this invalid reinstall 195 then resubmit?05:00

ZykoticK9superm1, would 195 vs 173 nvidia play a role?05:03
superm1it's possible, you can compare logs with 173 to see if it's any better05:03
superm1or you can have some dying hardware here perhaps?05:04
ZykoticK9superm1, are you (we) seeing the 195 or 173 error though?  I'm guessing 17305:04
ZykoticK9superm1, it's certainly working fine with the Karmic install - dual boothing the two05:04
ZykoticK9s/boothing/booting05:04
superm1ZykoticK9, you have 173 in that log...05:04
superm1i thought you installed current?05:04
superm1and which one are you using in karmic?05:05
ZykoticK9superm1, origionally i did - but to try and fix it i removed current (no change)05:05
superm1ZykoticK9, so i think need to compare what the logs say with -current (195)05:05
ZykoticK9superm1, so do you think it would be more valuable if i reinstalled current and resubmitted bug?05:05
superm1probably,05:05
superm1because NV is not really fixing bugs on the old drivers05:06
ZykoticK9superm1, ok, thanks for all your help by the way05:06
superm1no prob.  it's better to fix problems now before it's too late with the gold media cut :)05:07
ZykoticK9superm1, I'm sure you have better things to do then help me with this bug, but does bug #544817 give more helpful information?  It should be back to 195 driver now.05:45

Ghost1227anyone able to tell me how to move the restore/minimize/close buttons back to the right side of windows?05:52
ZykoticK9Ghost1227, http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/move-buttons-to-right-side05:53
Ghost1227ZykoticK9: i know about that, but this version doesn't appear to use metacity05:54
ZykoticK9Ghost1227, ahh good point!  I have no idea man05:54
Ghost1227lol05:54
superm1there is an option in the window settings for xfce in the GUI actually05:55
superm1settings->window manager05:55
superm1ZykoticK9, looks like the same error05:58
superm1so i'd follow what it says in looking for common problems in the README (in that xorg log)05:58
ZykoticK9superm1, doesn't surprise me at all - same outcome with both05:58
superm1and see if there is anything that stands out for what might be causing it05:58
Ghost1227superm1: you rule, thanks05:59
Ghost1227next question... how do you disable rxvt transparency?06:00
superm1rxvt?  rxvt isn't installed in mythbuntu06:25
Ghost1227no, but i installed it because i dislike the xfce terminal :P06:34
Ghost1227i figured it out though06:34
ZykoticK9superm1, thanks again for the guidance earlier (i really appreciated it).  Turns out I have a short memory, there is an issue with Nvidia and Hauppauge 1600 where simply adding "vmalloc=256MB" to /etc/default/grub solves the issue - this issue was present in Karmic as well, I of course forgot about it since installing Karmic (i have already marked by 2nd bug invalid).  Thanks again.07:23
Ghost1227hmm07:23
Ghost1227off the wall question... anyone know a way of adding an embedded addressbar to a website?07:24

dewmanhas anyone seen where there are channels on qam64 and on qam256?17:57
McNeveranybody up for some fun with firewire?18:22
McNeverbackend is detecting my STB, or at least it sees the GUID, but i'm not getting a channel lock18:22
McNeveri assume if its seeing the GUID my firewire card and the port on the cable box are ok18:22
McNeverand its more of a config/compatibility issue within myth then18:23
mrandMcNever: not many people using firewire here I don't think.  Probably have better luck searching on forums or mythtv mailing list.18:30
rhpot1991McNever: did you check for encryption?18:34
rhpot1991thats the most common thing that will cause you to not get a channel lock18:35
dewmanis there a mythfill database log somewhere?18:55
mrandmine is in /var/log/mythtv18:56
dewmanthanks. I am trying to figure out a channel mapping issue. The channel is actually espnHD but in the frontend it is showing guide data as a local....19:02
zuixro_I have a userjob that edits commercials out of my recordings after they have been flagged. I need to delay it from running until after the recording has finished transcoding and flagging. Is there an easy way to do that?23:13
rhpot1991zuixro_: I thought that happened by default23:30
rhpot1991check in mythtv-setup where you enable user jobs there are a few settings in there23:31
zuixro_Nope. It queues up all the jobs at all the jobs at once, and since I have 2 backends, it runs multiple at once23:31
zuixro_I looked through them, I didn't see anything that seemed relevant. It allows you to defer transcoding for a day, but that's it.23:32
rhpot1991hmmm just the option to transcode before commflagging it seems23:37
rhpot1991have your job check for commflagging or transcoding and sleep until its done23:37
zuixro_Good idea. I'll have to study up on my shell script-fu.  I'd rather have it not even enqueue it until the transcoding was complete though. I'll look into it23:43
