hednodI want to convert my mythbuntu system which is currently just a single disk non-raid into a two-disk software (md) raid.  The raid part I have down, i've down it before, but Ubuntus method of managing grub is.. beyond complicated.  How/where do I edit the right files to indicate the new device names?01:38
hednodI dug around on google first but did not find anything01:38

PatrickDKyuk, I dunno about doing it on a ram drive at all, sounds evil18:19
PatrickDKit's much easier and safer to just make sure that it's always in cache18:19

_Techie_how difficult is it to setup a myth backend just for sharing a TVtuner card22:03
Gibby_2share it how?22:06
_Techie_i want to be able to watch TV on my desktop machine, connected to the network, using a tv tuner card installed in my server machine behind the TV22:07
_Techie_i would think about doing it using ust my own PC, but this way is far cooler and cheaper to setup22:08
_Techie_it would also allow my dad to watch tV on his laptop if i wish to allow him22:09
Gibby_2yep, then you just install/configure the backend and anyplace you want to watch it setup a frontend22:12
_Techie_is there any really good guide to setting up the backend on ubuntu-server?22:13
_Techie_i asked ubottu but his mythtv page is a bit out dated22:13
Gibby_2is the server already installed with ubuntu?22:14
_Techie_yes22:14
Gibby_2do this first http://www.mythbuntu.org/existing-ubuntu22:15
karl_I was wondering if someone could help me/give me a little advice. I just did a brand new install of mythbuntu 10.10 and am trying to configure my HD PVR, but having difficulty.22:22
Gibby_2karl_; check mythtv-users22:26
karl_Ok, thanks, I'll check there....I'm new to irc & mythtv...been banging my head against the wall for quite a while now...figured I'd actually try to get help instead of continually struggling.22:28
_Techie_does anyone know if the myth backend configurator plays nicely with X forwarding22:49
Gibby_2yes it does, i use it all the time22:51
Gibby_2it is even better if you use nxserver22:52
biffheroapt-get update on a lucid box gives me an error, and says I should "run sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database"  when I do that, I get a dialog screen titled "Configuring mythtv-database", and then an error on my console: "Failed to create or modify database (incorrect admin username/password?)23:08
biffheroTry:23:08
biffherosudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database"23:08
biffherothis is a 0.23 upgrade within 0.23 to a later 0.23.  My config.xml file looks OK, and when I do "mysql -u ……" with that information, I get into mysql just fine.23:09
biffheroI thought the problem was that "Name: mythtv/mysql_admin_password" was blank, so I filled it in.  Re-ran the script.  same error.  But now the field is empty again.23:30
