[00:38] I setup diskless boot on the Mythbuntu 9.04. I have it somewhat working using the diskless but now my non-diskless machines are no longer able to connect to the backend. It seems that there is a problem with resolving the backend's hostname. I'm assuming that this happened because I edited /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf. Is that a safe assumption? I want my verizon dsl/router to handle the dns and I have the ip address of the router set as "option doman- [00:38] name-servers". I can see the hostname when I log into the router, but the only way I can connect to the machine is using the ip address. [00:39] When using the non-diskless machines I can enter the ip address into the hostname but then I get an error that I cannot connect to database as opposed to the cannot ping backend database. [00:39] Any thoughts on what I screwed up?

Playing with Lucid/Mythbuntu. How can I set the master volume. Internal player seems to set it back to 70% when it starts and the volume controls effect PCM volume (not master). [02:49] ^effect^affect... to keep my english teacher happy ;-) [02:57] mungewell: Same for me! [02:58] just found the settings in the utils/setup page.... seem to work OK. === Guest93682 is now known as cmug [06:24] are there any scheduled releases for mythbuntu to bring in Lucid? [12:52] Anyone else got broken (extremely stuttery, garbled) sound with lucid and hdmi? [12:52] sound is ok for playing music, just tv is broken [12:52] using a meekat ion [12:52] .. worked fine with karmic [14:02] I'm working on getting diskless boot up and running but before I get that working 100% i need to still be able to boot and use Myth frontend off of a standard disk boot. The problem that I noticed is that after I netboot (which is working but I have some driver issues with my Dell Zino) and I go back to standard disk boot, I can no longer resolve the hostname of my backend. I don't if it's related to trying to machine netbooting or not. I'm gue [14:02] ssing that I'm running two dhcp servers (one on dsl model/router and one on backend) and they are running into each other. Do I need to run a dhcp server on the backend to netboot? If not, how do I disable the dhcp server on teh backend? [16:49] Daviey: if you can manage to squeeze out another 0.22 update that would be fantastic, it would hopefully be the last for that branch but it includes some important memleak fixes [16:50] gbee: It should show up within 12 hours. :) [16:50] hmm [16:51] ah, they are manual for 0.22 now.. aren't they [16:51] aye [16:51] gbee: Okay.. i don't think i'll have time to do it until Monday now (going away for the weekend) [16:52] it's not a huge problem if you can't do it, I'd just like to leave the last packages for 0.22 in the best possible shape so that no-one is forced to upgrade if they find 0.22 to be otherwise stable [17:09] gbee: oh i agree.. if it's probably going to be the last update, i'll reflect that in the changelog [17:14] i'm using 9.10 on meerkat ion as front end.. hdmi sound is badly broken :( [17:14] sound ok playing music though, just watching tv [17:14] wondering if it is a codec problem [17:50] jng: mine works fine, I'd venture you don't have the passthrough settings correctly [17:54] hmm.. interesting [17:55] i was just away doing tests [17:55] alsa-default sound and using the audio out jack is fine [17:55] just hdmi that is sort of there, but really, really choppy [17:56] where is this passthrough thing set? [17:56] setup > general > page 3 [17:56] cheers.. will take a look [17:56] thanks [18:01] Hmmm. Do any of you have experience with the core2duo E7200? I'm looking at buildning a really quiet HTPC. [18:03] core2duo's are pretty quiet [18:03] in fact, most processors are really quiet [18:03] I see. [18:03] haffe: you could go with a backend somewhere and do an ion box for the frontend [18:03] most of those can run fanless and therefor completely silent [18:03] The fan on the other hand, can be loud [18:03] and for bonus point you could lose the hard drive [18:03] tgm4883: :) [18:03] !frontend | haffe [18:03] haffe: Ion Boxes make a great frontend. http://www.baablogic.net/drupal/node/2 [18:04] rhpot1991: Problem is, I live in a one room studio, so I don't have a place to store a backend. [18:04] my backend/frontend is pretty quiet [18:04] I'm thinking Core2Duo E7200, and then a Schyte or thermalright and a big 120mm fan. [18:05] I ust need to get a fanless video card [18:05] I have a fanless video card. [18:05] ya go fanless video card and a scythe ninja 2 (or mini) [18:05] and you wont hear a thing [18:05] But somehow i doubt a 6200TC will be happy playing 1080 [18:05] fwiw i have two meekat ion's as frontends [18:05] heck thats how I run my non HTPCs anymore [18:05] http://www.mythbuntu.org/developer-hardware [18:06] rhpot1991: tried to find the passthrough setting.. no sign in my settings.. [18:06] Last time I bought a pc a Thermalright XP120 was the king of the coolers. [18:06] Time flies apparentley. [18:06] jng: its in mythtvfrontend [18:06] not mythtv-setup [18:07] right sorry my bad.. i'm talking mythfrontend here.. [18:07] audio system is 4th page though.. [18:07] ok I was close :) [18:07] Now to look at a quiet fan. Is Nexus still king or should I go with noctuna? [18:08] haffe: I use the stock scythe fans [18:08] * tgm4883 uses stock as well [18:08] haffe: i took the fans out of my ions -- they are just about ok ;) [18:08] Hmmmm. [18:09] My motherboard has this cool 4pin fan outlet. I guess it's PWM. [18:10] Thanks for the help guys. [18:10] Maybe should check the boxed cooler first. [18:10] Might be sufficient. === gbutters is now known as gbutters_away === gbutters_away is now known as gbutters === tgm4883 changed the topic of #ubuntu-mythtv to: Mythbuntu 10.04 released :: Please visit www.mythbuntu.org for more information :: Paste logs @ http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com ** Please stick around for people to answer your question ** [18:57] !release [18:57] Mythbuntu 10.04 http://www.mythbuntu.org/downloads [18:58] !unrelease [18:58] Sorry I don't know about unrelease [18:58] bah, boring [18:59] gbee, no unrelease for you [21:39] I have a backend which holds all my videos and music and use my other pc as a frontend, in 9.10 music played just fine but since I have done a fresh install 10.4 and mythmusic shows the files but will not play ,yet video plays fine,,,,,,,, [22:25] hey guys, the age old question, dist-upgrade or not dist-upgrade [22:27] running 9.10 on a Via EPIA box with a Hauppage PVR 500 card [22:27] anyone runnign 10.04 with something similar ? [23:46] will mythbuntu go from 9.04 to 10.04? [23:47] squish102: sure, but I think you need to hop to 9.10 in the process, not certain [23:47] it should follow the same upgrade rules as regular ubuntu [23:47] superstable 9.04, but i think i may be missing some things, so i may risk it... any1 think i'm crazy? [23:48] 10.04 has mythtv 0.23, 9.04 had 0.21, so I say upgrade [23:48] backup your db first just in case [23:48] rhpot1991 ok, is there anything else you think I should backup? [23:49] will it upgrade if it is running on a Volume group? [23:52] another question, does mythtv 0.23 still need videos nfs mounted from remote FE's? or can it stream all types of videos?
