| tanjeff | Hi. I just installed mythbuntu 10.10 and have it basically running, except for the remote control. | 16:32 |
|---|---|---|
| tanjeff | I use the Nova-T card as remote, and when I press buttons, I get keystrokes, even without lircd running. | 16:33 |
| tanjeff | The problem is that 50% of the buttons don't generate keypresses (I look at it with xev) and that I don't get any lirc events (irw doesn't show any output) | 16:34 |
| tanjeff | I just don't understand how things works. I'm used to lircd and don't know why keyboard events are being generated... | 16:36 |
| tanjeff | ...and why no lirc events are being generated at all, not even for the "working" buttons. | 16:37 |
| mrand | tanjeff: remote support was pulled into the linux kernel, I believe including the kernel that comes with 10.10 | 16:41 |
| mrand | there is a way to suspend the kernel remote support though, so you can revert to lirc if need be | 16:42 |
| tanjeff | I see. | 16:46 |
| tanjeff | Well, I would like to use the kernel support (in fact I would like to go go the easier way ;-)). | 16:46 |
| tanjeff | Is there a way to configure the remote somehow, so that the missing buttons start to work? | 16:47 |
| tanjeff | Or, can you give me a link to some documentation or something? | 16:47 |
| mrand | I'm trying to find something... not having much luck thus far. If you can stay online for a while, superm1` might know. | 16:48 |
| mrand | One thing: "echo -rc-6 > /sys/.../protocols" will turn off the in-kernel rc6 decoder | 16:49 |
| tanjeff | No, problem, I can wait for a while. | 16:49 |
| tanjeff | mrand: found ./devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:03:00.2/rc/rc0/protocols, but writing to it fails with "bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument" | 16:53 |
| mrand | tanjeff: I had hoped to play around with this on my test machine over the past several months, but work has preempted that - so unfortunately I'm still running 10.04 | 16:55 |
| tanjeff | As far as I see, lirc was basically moved into the kernel. Seems not be rocket science, after all. | 16:58 |
| mrand | tanjeff: yeah, jarod is in charge of both, and they want the transition to be as seemless as possible. lirc-mceusb to become mceusb, etc. | 17:04 |
| tanjeff | mrand: next problem, I'm sorry. My mythtvfrontend says "database has a newer TC schema (1264) than expected (1254)" | 17:11 |
| tanjeff | Is there an easy way to re-init the database or so? | 17:11 |
| tanjeff | I have no recordings to loose | 17:12 |
| tanjeff | And I touched nothing, of course ;-) | 17:13 |

| Lachdanan | Hi Any/Everyone | 17:21 |
| mrand | tanjeff: hrm. that shouldn't be necessarily. I'd just make sure everything is updated to the latest 0.24-fixes from the PPA | 17:26 |
| tanjeff | Oh dear, I'm quite a newbie at mythbuntu. I just updated my system using synaptic. Do I need additional repositories? | 17:27 |
| tanjeff | BTW, my version is 0.23.1+fixes26437-0ubuntu1 | 17:28 |
| Lachdanan | I'm running (or trying to run) a brand new installation (i've just reinstalled it for the 5th time) of Mythbuntu 10.10 with a Hauppauge 1300 tv tuner card. And do I have some problems! The most recent one is that when I try and click on WATCH TV to see if my channel setup actually worked this time, I get: "Could not connect to the master backend server - is it running?" The IP address under GENERAL in the Backend setup i | 17:34 |
| tanjeff | mrand: Found the mythbuntu-repos package. I didn't know about it before. Now upgrading to 0.24... | 17:36 |
| mrand | tanjeff: sorry - was away. That's what you want - it's got numerous bug fixes | 17:37 |
| mrand | Lachdanan: Is message was too long and was cut off after GENERAL. Is your backend running? Also check your /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log for any warnings/error/messages. | 17:38 |
| mrand | Gotta run for now | 17:38 |
| tanjeff | The thing I mostly fear are updates - I have a wife sitting in front of the box and expecting things to work ;-) | 17:38 |
| Lachdanan | Further to that, when I try running "mythbackend" from terminal I get: Failed to bind port 6543. Exiting" | 17:38 |
| tanjeff | mrand: thanx for the help | 17:39 |
| Lachdanan | mrand: i am a TOTAL linux novice and got mythbuntu after a friend recommended it - and I'm slowly wanting to tear my hair out - but now I am intrigued :( | 17:39 |
| Lachdanan | If you'd be willing to assist, and you can give me a time when you'd be back I would really appreciate assistance | 17:40 |
| mrand | Lachdanan: others people on the channel should be able to help over the course of the day. you don't normally launch mythbackend by yourself... instead, it is launched as a background "service" If you don't already have it, make sure you try out mythbuntu-control-centre | 17:41 |
| Lachdanan | mrand, i know, i've killed it from terminal and tried starting it to see if it'd "go" - but it obviously doesnt | 17:42 |
| Lachdanan | i do have the control centre and when i try the TEST button on the SQL tab, it tests OK | 17:42 |
| tanjeff | Hm, updated to 0.24, now mythfrontend wants to update my database schema from 1032 to 1038. I didn't do it yet, and TV works now. | 17:44 |
| tanjeff | Is it a good Idea to update? | 17:44 |
| mrand | tanjeff: yes, that's normal. Lachdanan: sudo service mythtv-backend start is how you launch it. | 17:45 |
| mrand | Ok, off like a prom dress. | 17:45 |
| * mrand away | 17:45 | |
| Lachdanan | lemme try | 17:46 |
| Lachdanan | nope, same error when trying to WATCH TV | 17:47 |
| Lachdanan | I'm quickly going to put the mythbuntu pc online - will be back shortly | 17:47 |
| Lachdanan | Im back | 18:32 |
| Bennage | Hi all... | 19:01 |
| Bennage | Can Mythbuntu use a Blu-ray drive? | 19:01 |
