castlectgm4833, did you have any guesses on what I should be fixing?03:51
castlecis anyone available to help me troubleshoot my login session crashing when i try to play recording in myth?03:58
Wickedjust curios....i always see the package mythbuntu-repos being updated...but dont really see what that does.04:09
Wickedupdated mirror list?04:10
tgm4883Wicked, it gets tweaked often04:16
Wickedyea...but what does? all that is updated is the mythbuntu-repos package04:17
Wickedno other mythtv things get changed04:17
tgm4883Wicked, it only gets updated if I need to change something in it, or if there is a new version of mythtv04:19
tgm4883recently i just changed some of the wording04:19
tgm4883for the autobuilds rebranding04:19
Wickedah. ok. well i had just noticed that that package had been updated a few times and nothing else was04:19
Wickedno big deal...i was just curious :)04:19

castlec_away^i told them the same thing^04:27
castlec_awayanyway, changing to slim fixed my issue.  I wonder what update hosed it04:28
maicodhi I wanted to try out my USB IR-toy with lirc under linux and I followed a guide on the website of my USB IR-toy which recommended MythBuntu so I installed that but it speaks of device /dev/ttyUSB0 and I don't see it in /dev . what can be the cause ?07:46
maicodits this guide: http://dangerousprototypes.com/docs/USB_IR_Toy:_Configure_LIRC07:47
Zinn[dangerousprototypes.com] USB IR Toy: Configure LIRC - DP07:47
chilukmaicod there's a good chance the device is showing up as something else.08:10
maicodoh :(08:10
maicodhow would I know which device name it has ?08:10
chilukalthough I have no specific experience with that device.08:10
maicodlsusb doesnt help much08:10
maicodok08:10
chilukone stupid simple way to do it would be to ls /dev > /tmp/before08:11
chilukunplug the device08:11
chilukls /dev > /tmp/removed08:11
chilukdiff /tmp/before /tmp/removed08:11
maicodokay going to try08:11
chilukwhatever device disappeared is the one related to your device.08:11
chilukthere are some better ways.08:11
chiluksuch as searching through /proc and /sys... but I need to get to bed, and don't want to figure those out at the moment.08:12
chilukgood luck.. I just finished getting my harmony working to control a frontend *(including suspend and resume!).. it took forever.08:12
maicodheheh thanks !08:13
maicodI got no difference :(08:13
chilukthe likely culprit then is that you are missing a kernel module.08:13
maicodoh I see . thanks !08:14
chiluklirc makes a ton of modules itself08:14
maicodoh since I did apt-get lirc I didnt reboot08:14
maicodshould I ?08:14
chilukif you are compiling from scratch you may have to run a make modules install *(or whatever lirc requires).08:14
chilukoh so you are using the repos..08:14
chilukyeah a reboot wouldn't hurt.08:15
maicodI was but I also have the atr08:15
maicodtar08:15
chilukhopefully the package maintainers put the lirc modules in the right place.08:15
maicodokay will try and otherwise I will try the source and do a make08:15
maicodhehe yeah08:15
maicodI could find a livecd of ubuntu also . this one is mythubuntu maybe the normal ubuntu works better :)08:16
maicodthis one is a install of mythbuntu since the livecd had the same problems I figured i'd install it :)08:16
maicoddidnt help08:16
chilukare you running 10.10?08:16
maicodlemme see08:16
chilukcat /etc/issue!~08:17
chilukI know nothing about IR Toy..08:17
maicodhehe08:17
chilukso I don't know if I'll be much more help.08:17
maicodhow can I see the version?08:17
maicodI downloaded the cd only recently so its probably 10.1008:18
chilukyou can see the version by running cat /etc/issue08:18
maicodoh that didnt work :(08:18
maicodw808:18
maicodoh you added !`08:18
chiluktry it again.. if it didn't work again... I'd reinstall mythbuntu from a more trusted source..08:18
maicod~~08:18
maicoddamn08:18
Zinnmaicod: Please watch your language.08:18
maicod10.10/nl08:18
maicodit is08:19
chiluksorry I felt I needed emPHAsis.08:19
maicodnetherlands08:19
maicodhaha okay08:19
chilukcool.08:19
maicodI literally typed it over sorry :)08:19
maicodthe usb toy is fun but it refuses to work with my digital tuner remote :(08:19
maicodIm now trying to see if it DOES in linux with raw codes instead08:20
maicodcause the raw codes work with a friends ir-toy under linux but under windows the raw code lirc config file gets refused08:20
maicodwith winlirc08:20
maicodmaybe lirc takes them :)08:20
chilukdid you check dmesg or /var/log/messages to see if the device gets recognized?08:23
maicodI think because lsusb lists it !08:24
chiluklsusb will list all devices on the usb bus.08:24
maicodok08:24
chilukthat doesn't mean that a module exists for that device08:24
maicodI understand08:24
chilukor that a /dev/ entry was created for it.08:24
maicodill check08:24
chilukI have no real experience with it...08:25
chilukand it seems to be more complex than a simple IR receiver.08:25
chilukyou may have to get help on the IR Toy forums.08:25
chilukgood luck... must sleep... it's 2:30 a.m. here.08:25
maicodokay thanks08:26
maicodbye08:26
