| DaveMorris | any suggestions on which HDD config will be better for recordings, I can afford 4 2TB drives. I plan on having 3 DVB-T and 2-4 DVB-S2. Disks will all be local, with a quad 3GHz AMD. All RAID will be the standard Linux software. | 16:18 |
| DaveMorris | a.) RAID 5 | 16:18 |
| DaveMorris | b.) RAID 6 | 16:18 |
| DaveMorris | c.) 2 X RAID1 with a storage group assigned to each one | 16:18 |
| DaveMorris | please highlight me with your response | 16:20 |

| DaveMorris1 | ok, upgraded from karmic to lucid | 19:01 |
| DaveMorris1 | now backend won't start (it got deleted for some reason) | 19:02 |
| DaveMorris1 | dave@atlantia:~$ mythbackend | 19:02 |
| DaveMorris1 | NVIDIA OpenGL Driver requires CPUs with SSE to run. | 19:02 |
| DaveMorris1 | why do I need OpenGL now to run the backend? | 19:02 |
| DaveMorris1 | I'm guessing it's linked against OpenGL and I've not got the correct Nvidia driver installed | 19:06 |
| rhpot1991 | DaveMorris1: looks like the nvidia version in there doesn't support your cpu | 19:10 |
| DaveMorris1 | yeah, gfx card isn't nvidia though | 19:10 |
| DaveMorris1 | VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. Savage 4 (rev 03) | 19:10 |
| rhpot1991 | you could always try installing an older version of nvidia from x-updates or jya's repo | 19:10 |
| rhpot1991 | ah, well thats weird | 19:10 |
| rhpot1991 | if you launch restricted drivers manager does it say that nvidia is enabled? | 19:11 |
| DaveMorris1 | says nothing decteted | 19:11 |
| DaveMorris1 | cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep sse sohws my CPU doesn't support SSE | 19:12 |
| DaveMorris1 | yeah, somethings already pulled in a load of nvidia modules | 19:17 |
| DaveMorris1 | packages even | 19:17 |
| DaveMorris1 | fixed | 19:19 |
| DaveMorris1 | sudo apt-get remove nvidia-173-modaliases nvidia-185-modaliases nvidia-96-modaliases nvidia-common nvidia-current nvidia-current-modaliases nvidia-settings | 19:19 |
| DaveMorris1 | solved it | 19:19 |
| DaveMorris1 | for the logs ;) | 19:19 |
| DaveMorris1 | and google | 19:19 |
| rhpot1991 | weird, nvidia-current prob | 19:20 |
| rhpot1991 | modaliases should be fine, thats what restricted driver manager uses to check for the hardware | 19:20 |
| DaveMorris1 | mythtv-backend also seemed to get deselected on the upgrade on both my backends, but not much point reporting it since karmic is end of life | 19:22 |
| genec | DaveMorris1: how did you upgrade? | 19:24 |
| DaveMorris1 | do-release-upgrade | 19:25 |
| DaveMorris1 | 0.24 seems to crash (hangs at least) whenever I exit a video | 19:30 |
| genec | iirc, that should have been best practice | 19:30 |
| DaveMorris1 | ahh, alsa:pulse fixes that problem | 19:32 |
| * DaveMorris1 grumbles, I don't like the mythbackend change, where you have to have a capature card for it to start | 21:28 | |
| mrand | DaveMorris1: I don't recall the exact reason upstream did that. You can always use a dummy tuner/card or, I think, even a network stream. | 21:37 |
| superm1 | i don't like it either | 21:38 |
| tgm4883 | DaveMorris, mrand superm1 I'm not sure I like it either, but a capture card has always been required for the backend to function according to upstream | 21:47 |
| tgm4883 | it's just not until the latest version that there was a check in place | 21:47 |
| superm1 | worked for me before | 21:47 |
| tgm4883 | superm1, <tgm4883> it's just not until the latest version that there was a check in place | 21:48 |
| DaveMorris1 | tgm4883: I have mydesktop setup as a slave to do commflagging | 22:23 |
| DaveMorris1 | the master backend is under powered atm (dual P2 clocked 450Mhz) | 22:24 |
| DaveMorris1 | mrand: yes you can, but I had to create a file for it to open as well | 22:25 |
| DaveMorris1 | I guess the line checking could be patched out, or upstream might be nice and allow a pre-processor to disable it | 22:26 |
| superm1 | if it's a simple patch out i'm game for that | 22:29 |
| superm1 | i just dont want to get into something that has to be refreshed all the time | 22:30 |
| DaveMorris1 | which is what would be nice with the pre-proccssor | 22:30 |
| DaveMorris1 | you'd just pass in -DDISABLE_BACKEND_CAPATURECARD_CHECK | 22:30 |
| superm1 | glad you're volunteering to go fight w/ em on it :) | 22:31 |
| DaveMorris1 | haha | 22:31 |
| DaveMorris1 | sure | 22:31 |
| DaveMorris1 | btw one of the pages on the wiki was pointing at svn.mythtv rather than code.mythtv | 22:31 |
| superm1 | both work don't they? | 22:32 |
| DaveMorris1 | atm, wasn't sure if they'd dropped the svn subdomain though | 22:33 |
| superm1 | go ahead and fix the wiki page if you come across it again | 22:33 |
| DaveMorris1 | will do | 22:34 |
| rhpot1991 | why not just make the fake tuner? | 22:46 |
| DaveMorris1 | actually I've just tested and the slave backend will startup without a tuner | 22:55 |
| DaveMorris1 | rhpot1991: it was complaining if the file didn't exist | 22:55 |
| DaveMorris1 | and I could quite easily delete the file by mistake | 22:56 |
