[04:36] head_victim: you got one of the ezcap dvb tuners from zazz? [04:51] bradm: nope, I have a winfast dtv gold [04:52] head_victim: ah, just saw one of your older posts [04:52] MIght be rebranded? [04:53] its possible [04:53] Oh you mean the dab one? [04:53] yeah [04:53] Yeah it was crap, got the winfast and bought an iriver b30 to use for dab [04:54] http://www.digitalnow.com.au/product_pages/Dabby.html [04:54] That's what I did have [04:54] ahh, okey [04:54] just found http://www.turnovfree.net/~stybla/linux/v4l-dvb/lv5tdlx/, which was rather useful [04:56] The winfast one is around 40 bucks a pop and "Just works". There is a modified firmware for it if you don't want the dmesg erros [05:03] not really much point for me having dab at this time anyway, no broadcasts here [05:04] Yeah I spent 80 on that dab one and then sat it on the bench 2 weeks in. [05:04] Bought the other and use it with me-tv [05:05] I'm finally getting play with this one some more, looks like I might have a working module for it now [05:06] Supposedly the one I had was working under linux for dtv but not dab but I couldn't get either working [05:06] That was mainly due to the device reporting as an afatech devices when it was really an rtl [05:07] Which I found out after I'd ordered the winfast so didn't poke too much more into it sorry [05:08] no worries, I'm making progress with this anyway [05:09] awesome, the scanning has found some channels, taking forever [05:12] Cool I gotta head afk for a while again if you need anything just leave a ping :) [06:58] anyone know why /usr/lib/evolution/e-addressbook-factory wakes up every so often and causes huge amounts of traffic to syd01s01-in-f104.1e100.net:443? [07:15] anyone know how to get Chat accounts to be set as online on boot? I've got FB chat set up but it's always offline until I explicitly turn it to online using Chat Accounts in the Me Menu [07:23] somethinginteres, you have to do that through the empathy application under Applications -> Internet -> Empathy Instant Messaging [07:23] 'automatically connect on startup' seems checked by default in it. [07:27] elky: hmm seems to be checked on mine also. Maybe empathy isn't set to start on boot [07:27] somethinginteres, possibly. That's System -> Preferences -> Startup applications [07:28] elky: thanks for that [07:28] It doesn't appear to be in mine, and mine is a fresh install [07:29] elky: Added it now, and I found a command switch to allow it to launch silently on startup which is exactly what I am after "empathy --start-hidden" [07:30] tops [09:35] hey all [09:36] can someone help me out with this please mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking. [09:51] lano: big big guess, but is portmap installed both ends? I found installing portmap and nfs server on one end it all that's needed === tremmons is now known as iflema === lano is now known as esc_phr34k [12:10] clear [12:13] esc_phr34k: did you see my reply earlier tonight? [12:27] chesty, i have just now thanks. well see i have a qnap server so i cant really install portmap on it. how ever portmap is running on my ubuntu [12:27] i have narrowed it down to statd that doesnt start on boot [12:27] and soon as i start that all works well [12:28] i just cant seem to figure it out why my statd want start even thos chkconfig says its turned on to start on boot [12:29] chkconfig, hey [12:31] yes why [12:34] didn't realise ubuntu had it, does it handle upstart? [12:34] u cant install it [12:34] it does not come with it by default [12:35] i have not used upstart but chkconfig is almost the same it handels the start and stop of the services [12:36] i have tried bum as well but same thing i am not sure why it want start on boot but when u run it manual all works fine [12:37] what version of ubuntu? [12:37] 10.10 [12:37] then you're using upstart [12:38] i am not familiar with it [12:39] me neither [12:40] so u have any other clue to my problem [12:40] /etc/init.d is being phased out, so if statd is handled the new way, chkconfig might not handle it [12:40] her so what is the best way to check then [12:42] /etc/init/statd.conf [12:43] if i'm reading that file right, it starts when portmap starts [12:45] i have noticed that as well but portmap starts fine [12:45] even when i check the status of it it says it runing [12:47] ps aux | grep portmap ? [12:48] root@babylon:/etc/init.d# ps aux |grep portmap [12:48] daemon 853 0.0 0.0 1960 540 ? Ss 20:53 0:00 portmap [12:48] root 5431 0.0 0.0 4012 764 pts/0 S+ 23:48 0:00 grep --color=auto portmap [12:50] double check /etc/default/nfs-common that statd isn't turned off, but it's not by default, so that's probably not the problem [12:52] u are right it looks like by default it is switched off [12:52] man i was even there before and didnt see the statd option [12:53] feel like an idiot now [12:53] hey? if it doesn't say "no" exactly, then it's yes [12:53] even empty is yes [12:53] ah okay [12:53] well it didnt have anything next to it [12:54] same here [12:54] ps aux | grep statd ; stop portmap ; ps aux | grep statd ; start portmap ; ps aux | grep statd [12:55] statd 2215 0.0 0.0 2096 828 ?

[12:59] that's configured, right? [12:59] but /etc/init/portmap.conf is a file how do u check wit that [13:00] well i am getting static ip from my router [13:00] read it, it's new to me too, but it's basically understandable. the "start on" line would be my guess [13:00] but you have an interface called lo too, right? [13:00] you should [13:01] so in ubuntu 10 there is no simply way like chkconfig to check if it starts on boot [13:01] yeah i do [13:01] i know as much upstart as you do [13:02] aha okay [13:02] /etc/default/portmap exists? [13:02] yep [13:05] maybe check the boot logs? [13:05] i have nothing that i can see but i will check again [13:05] went through dmesg etc and [13:07] i don't think boot jobs are logged in dmesg [13:07] i have check then var/log [13:07] as well [13:11] grep "init: statd" /var/log/syslog (assuming you've rebooted recently) [13:13] it just says teminated with status 1 that is what i was googling all night basicly [13:13] but dunno what it means [13:13] yeah, that means it didn't start. there is a bug open for it [13:13] try stop statd; start statd [13:13] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/484209 [13:15] thanks mate [13:15] will give it a try [13:15] from reading that bug, it's only fixed in lucid [13:16] but if you edit /etc/init/statd.conf [13:16] change status portmap | grep -q start/running to status portmap | grep -q start/ [13:17] it might fix it [13:17] thanks champ will give it a go [13:17] much appreciate ur time [13:17] no worries, night [13:17] night === head_v is now known as head_victim [23:42] elky: I don't know a lot about printing stuffs, that poster you created, what sort of size could I get the printed to do you think? A2? Or is that something that depends on how good the printer is?
