[01:13] my router has no provision to ignore inbound traffic from a certain ip address ... is there a way to tell my myth box to do so? [01:14] some ip in Bejing is hammering my machine. [01:15] yeah - iptables [01:15] just set that ip to drop [01:19] looking into it [01:21] hmmm.... [01:24] as in - iptables -I INPUT -i eth1 -s "218.30.5.19" -j DROP [01:24] ? [01:26] Greetings, all. I'm relatively new to linux and brand new to mythbuntu. All I need is a very simple, compatible, PCI or PCIe-X1 tuner card that will receive ATSC over the air, no cable, no satellite. Any recommendations? [01:28] looks about right cybernet, since ur telling it to insert iirc you need to tell it at what line? [01:29] no, I've never messed with iptables before... [01:29] I googled ban iptables and that's what came up.

[01:50] nice looking package! [02:09] just don't get hit via ipv6 :) [03:27] quit === qwebirc49214 is now known as Rebecca [05:16] hey peoples, im trying to install mythbuntu 10.10 and it is presenting me with a login prompt after i select either install or try. [05:16] is this normal and if so, what login details should I be using? [05:19] If i hit escape then I briefly view the live cd desktop (if i selected try) but very quickly that changes to a blank screen containing just a cursor [05:49] im guessing this isn't normal.. burning a new cd on a different computer.. [07:02] still doing the same thing [07:02] hmmmm [07:02] why is it presenting me with a login :/ [07:09] Rebecca: sounds like something is failing and throwing you to the login [07:09] could try ubuntu as the user [07:09] and no password [07:10] Rebecca: #ubuntu may be a better place to ask, as thats a general installer issue [07:23] ok [08:17] hmmm, i think the cause of the problem might be the 'hdd' im using.. which is a ghetto SSD; a 8GB CF drive connected via a CF-IDE adapter. i have used it in the past but looks like the current version of mythtv doesn't like it.. i'll get a real SSD tomorrow and re-try [08:35] should be fine rebecca [08:35] cf is IDE itself [08:37] i know, but i have noticed when using them in the past that OSs often don't treat them exactly like a regular HDD [08:37] or at least they cause bugs [08:41] did you check the cf itself is ok? they have a rather limited life [08:42] also - while i am at it - suggest you use 10.04 for a mythserver rebecca [08:42] 5 year support is worth it imo ;) [08:43] my mythserver is 9.04 - i already need to upgrade as it was eol in october - 10.04 is LTS [08:45] almost wish i had stayed with 8.04 tbh [08:46] tho being fait i have another machien with the same chipset and video i can use to rebuild and move the hd across, most people dont have that luxury [08:46] *fair [08:54] * mycosys idly ponders how many mythtv servers are sli capable [12:40] hello everyone [12:47] !help [12:47] !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number].
