[00:10] thanks, glad i forgot to log out :) [00:46] !help [00:46] !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. [02:55] Hi has anyone experienced problems with mySQL? About every 3-5 boot ups it does not start. [02:57] angelo454, sounds like a race condition [03:00] I have a frontend running on the same machine and I do notice that it won't find the backend and I have to restart it and it will find it the second time. What can I do to correct the race condition? [03:01] angelo454, what is the output of 'dpkg -l mythtv-backend' [03:04] The response was "failed to read archive 'myth-backend' . . ." should I be root or in a certain directory? [03:05] mythtv-backend [03:05] no, you don't need to be root [03:07] same response [03:08] hmm [03:08] thats odd [03:08] try it with a sudo I guess [03:10] still the same response. I am running mythfilldatabase. that would not interfere with the dpkg command? [03:10] it shouldn't [03:11] sounds like dpkg might be broke for you? [03:13] I have used Update Manager to get the latest MythTV version .23. Is that similar to dpkg? [03:13] are you using auto-builds? [03:17] Yes, I got .23+fixes and tonight I saw there was a new build and updated to that one. I am running KnoppMyth with .22 on another machine and am working on upgrading to Mythbuntu with .23 on this machine. I found the system unstable with live TV saw I tried the .23+fixes but it did not help. [03:35] angelo454, take a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1511342 [03:35] [ubuntuforums.org] Backend start and udev rule race condition - Ubuntu Forums [03:40] ran the command again. This time lower case L instead of upper case I (eye). [03:40] Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold [03:40] | Status=Not/Inst/Cfg-files/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend [03:40] |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) [03:40] ||/ Name Version Description [03:40] +++-==============-==============-============================================ [03:40] un mythtv-backend (no description available) [03:40] angelo@play-myth:~$ [03:43] From the thread you referenced, I should have fixed it when I ran auto-builds. [03:47] Sorry, I ran it from the frontend. When I run it on the backend I have 0.23.0++fixes2. This is the version I just updated to about an hour ago. [03:52] angelo454, you might want to use pastebin [03:52] =) [03:57] Will it allow me to copy text from one computer to another? [04:07] I'll see what happens with this latest autobuilds version. Thanks for your help. [11:11] Current Ctrl+Alt+Del behaviour is to lock the current desktop. Is there a place to disable this ? [11:23] Ah the XFCE settings editor (a bit like regedit) has a way to set keyboard shortcuts. Removed the command from the custom ctrl alt del one, and it's fine now [22:36] I know this is logged so I'll throw it in. If people have problems with firmware (dvb-fe-tda10046.fw) being uploaded then it is worth giving this a go: cd /etc/init then mv the mythbuntu script to a different name (put .old on the end) and then reboot and rename it back, then reboot again. I have had no problems since. [22:37] not sure why it works but it has [22:37] :) [22:41] another fix: If you have a frontend on the backend server, ensure you use the network IP and not the loopback when setting up. There is a wierd bug where other frontends pick up the config from the DB and tries to get the tuner stream from localhost. [22:43] if you are feeling brave connect to the mysql instance and do this: use mythconverg; update settings set data = 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' where data ='127.0.0.1'; [22:43] change the x's for your backend IP address [22:46] typhoon, regarding the frontend on the backend server, that is not a bug, that is proper configuration [22:46] there is a difference [22:46] ah, ok [22:47] should have read the manual :-) [22:47] not sure why the first thing works though [22:48] could be something simple as date time stamp on the script files i guess [22:48] i know what causes it [22:48] myth tries to send commands to the chip while the firmware is being uploaded [22:48] so the chip goes nuts [22:49] but that shouldn't be fixed by doing what you are doing [22:49] if anything, it might be a race condition [22:49] aye, it could be [22:49] its a really odd one [22:50] the other way is to stick a "sleep 10" or something in the init script but that slows boot time [22:51] no-one seems to know how to actually "fix" it. it's not a problem with myth or the firmware, just the way they play together [22:53] thanks for the headsup on the B/E config. might actually read through it see if i've missed anything else haha
