pepsimanMy computer sometimes hangs during shutdown, looking at the mythtv-backend logs for when this happened this morning, it appears that mysqld was stopped before mythtv-backend - start of a very long log: http://mythtv.pastebin.com/hdUT4nmp15:58
superm1pepsiman, i'm not sure we can control who gets the shutdown sent to it first16:10
rhpot1991shouldn't it still die when it gets the kill signal though?16:11
pepsimanI'm not even sure if it's mythtv-backend that is stopping the shutdown16:12
pepsimansyslog has stopped, so nothing gets logged16:12
superm1well all processes should get the shutdown signal sent at the same time16:13
pepsimanI'll try #upstart16:14
KjetilKif I enable http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/0.23/ubuntu, I will only get fixes that make my system stabler, right?17:52
Zinn[ppa.launchpad.net] Index of /mythbuntu/0.23/ubuntu17:52
tgm4883KjetilK, are there other kinds of fixes?18:01
tgm4883I mean, fixes that make your system unstabler don't seem like fixes18:01
KjetilKtgm4883, I just didn't feel completely confident about it from the docs...18:02
tgm4883What part of the docs?18:02
KjetilKit could be that they were backporting features18:02
KjetilK http://mythbuntu.org/auto-builds18:02
tgm4883KjetilK, yes, I wrote that page. So what part18:02
tgm4883we aren't backporting features to 0.23. You are getting stuff from the 0.23-fixes branch upstream. That is what that PPA contains18:03
KjetilKok, good18:04
tgm4883but what part of it is confusing, so I can fix it18:04
KjetilKso, mainly, I wasn't sure if there could be a trunk for 0.2318:04
KjetilKlet me see if I can pinpoint it better18:05
KjetilKhow about, in the FAQ: s/Most people will want to select the most current released MythTV version /Most people will want to select the most current released MythTV version as this contains only fixes/18:08
KjetilKor perhaps18:09
jolarenGreetings. I just got to my familys country house and I brought my Mythtvbackend with me. For the life of me I can't get live-tv to play18:10
KjetilKs/Most people will want to select the most current released MythTV version /Most people will want to select the most current released MythTV version as this provides updates that improves the system stability, but does not add features./18:11
tgm4883jolaren, backend logs?18:15

tgm4883ok, check MLogG then18:24
MisterK85Hi everyone. I am wondering if the hardware I have is good enough for MythTV (just basically wanting to watch movies and maybe browse the net on the TV). I have 768MB of RAM, 128MB ATI Radeon 9250, AMD Sempron 2600+ (1.6GHz), and for Internet VIA Rhine LAN and Linksys WUSB54G WLAN.18:24

tgm4883jolaren, did you rerun mythtv-setup?19:11
jolarenyeah and ran a channel search w/e19:13
jolarenWhen pressing watch live tv it just loads then kicks me back19:18
MisterK85Does Mythbuntu work with ATI Radeon 9250?19:49
chilukif you go to the info center what does it say as your tuner status?19:49
chilukfyi they shouldn't be asleep.19:50
Shadow__XMisterK85: mythbuntu will work through vesa drivers dont dont expect very much out of it19:51
MisterK85Shadow__X: I'm trying to get it to install, but for some stupid reason it won't bring me into the installation.19:52
MisterK85All I really want it for is to watch some downloaded TV shows.19:53
MisterK85It just, at this time, throws me to a blinking white cursor...19:55
Shadow__XMisterK85: right but that card is old and the driver support for it isnt great at all19:55
Shadow__Xthe path of least resistance imo is getting a geforce 5700 or 6xxx that would go in that machine19:55
MisterK85Really don't want to go out and buy another video card for basic movie watching.19:56
MisterK85I don't even want to do the whole Live TV thing.19:56
Shadow__Xi get that but what i am saying is that watching a video in linux with a card that doesnt have a good driver might just put you in a slideshow20:02
MisterK85True...20:02
MisterK85Guess I should stick with Winblows.20:02
Shadow__Xare you trying to record shows20:04
MisterK85Nope, just watch.20:04
Shadow__Xor are you just going to play videos off of your hard drive20:04
Shadow__Xthen whats the point of using mythtv?20:04
MisterK85I want a nice basic interface for watching shows with.20:05
MisterK85It's going to be a system stogged behind a desk where nobody sees anything.20:05
Shadow__Xright but mythtv is designed to be much more then what you want to use it for20:05
Shadow__Xsince you wont be recording i would recommend you looking towards xbmc or boxee or something similiar because that is geared more towards what you will be using it for20:06
Shadow__Xso i would just install a regular ubuntu installation install the driver it prompts you to install for the video20:07
Shadow__Xand install xbmc or boxee and just set those up20:07
MisterK85I tried XBMC (which works great on my laptop in Win7, but XP... not so lucky).20:07
Shadow__Xmythtv requires more than just the frontend you need backend web server mysql20:07
Shadow__Xi would make sure you have drivers installed20:08
Shadow__Xalso you need to be reasonable you arent going to watch 1080p video on a p4 with a ati 9250 card20:08
MisterK85Most I'm watching is like XviD/DivX files, far from being HD. Most of which are just the M*A*S*H TV Series (11 Seasons)20:09
Shadow__Xok well again xbmc is geared more towards what you want to do and i would try it again because i have gotten it working and if you have trouble you can visit #xmbc20:11
MisterK85Shall do. :)20:12
Shadow__Xyup20:12
