[00:30] did you upgrade your fe? === dkeith__ is now known as dkeith [16:18] 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] a.) RAID 5 [16:18] b.) RAID 6 [16:18] c.) 2 X RAID1 with a storage group assigned to each one [16:20] please highlight me with your response === superm1` is now known as superm1 [19:01] ok, upgraded from karmic to lucid [19:02] now backend won't start (it got deleted for some reason) [19:02] dave@atlantia:~$ mythbackend [19:02] NVIDIA OpenGL Driver requires CPUs with SSE to run. [19:02] why do I need OpenGL now to run the backend? [19:06] I'm guessing it's linked against OpenGL and I've not got the correct Nvidia driver installed [19:10] DaveMorris1: looks like the nvidia version in there doesn't support your cpu [19:10] yeah, gfx card isn't nvidia though [19:10] VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. Savage 4 (rev 03) [19:10] you could always try installing an older version of nvidia from x-updates or jya's repo [19:10] ah, well thats weird [19:11] if you launch restricted drivers manager does it say that nvidia is enabled? [19:11] says nothing decteted [19:12] cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep sse sohws my CPU doesn't support SSE [19:17] yeah, somethings already pulled in a load of nvidia modules [19:17] packages even [19:19] fixed [19:19] sudo apt-get remove nvidia-173-modaliases nvidia-185-modaliases nvidia-96-modaliases nvidia-common nvidia-current nvidia-current-modaliases nvidia-settings [19:19] solved it [19:19] for the logs ;) [19:19] and google [19:20] weird, nvidia-current prob [19:20] modaliases should be fine, thats what restricted driver manager uses to check for the hardware [19:22] 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 [19:24] DaveMorris1: how did you upgrade? [19:25] do-release-upgrade [19:30] 0.24 seems to crash (hangs at least) whenever I exit a video [19:30] iirc, that should have been best practice [19:32] ahh, alsa:pulse fixes that problem [21:28] * DaveMorris1 grumbles, I don't like the mythbackend change, where you have to have a capature card for it to start [21:37] 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. [21:38] i don't like it either [21:47] 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] it's just not until the latest version that there was a check in place [21:47] worked for me before [21:48] superm1, it's just not until the latest version that there was a check in place [22:23] tgm4883: I have mydesktop setup as a slave to do commflagging [22:24] the master backend is under powered atm (dual P2 clocked 450Mhz) [22:25] mrand: yes you can, but I had to create a file for it to open as well [22:26] I guess the line checking could be patched out, or upstream might be nice and allow a pre-processor to disable it [22:29] if it's a simple patch out i'm game for that [22:30] i just dont want to get into something that has to be refreshed all the time [22:30] which is what would be nice with the pre-proccssor [22:30] you'd just pass in -DDISABLE_BACKEND_CAPATURECARD_CHECK [22:31] glad you're volunteering to go fight w/ em on it :) [22:31] haha [22:31] sure [22:31] btw one of the pages on the wiki was pointing at svn.mythtv rather than code.mythtv [22:32] both work don't they? [22:33] atm, wasn't sure if they'd dropped the svn subdomain though [22:33] go ahead and fix the wiki page if you come across it again [22:34] will do [22:46] why not just make the fake tuner? [22:55] actually I've just tested and the slave backend will startup without a tuner [22:55] rhpot1991: it was complaining if the file didn't exist [22:56] and I could quite easily delete the file by mistake
