[05:37] <djhills> Im setting up a sorta weird configuration in an RV. I have a MythBuntu box setup with an 800i pinnacle card wired into the crank up antennae on the rv. I have everything updated and seems to be working but im not sure if i have the card setup right in mythtv. Any time i scan for channels i cant get a lock on a single one. Any suggestions?
[06:28] <mycosys> have you tested with another realtime playback app?
[06:28] <mycosys> would help know if it is myth or the card/driver
[08:39] <djhills> I've used it in windows for a few months with no problems. though not with this antennae setup. just had a standard small lil plug and play digital antennae. Problem i had with windows is that the pinnacle software would cause the computer to lockup.
[11:34] <mycosys> djhills i would be using another app (under linux) to test the aerial and driver combo
[17:06] <qwebirc55812> Hello
[17:07] <qwebirc55812> I have a question,...I have a HD-PVR and Directv (box model:H21-200) are these supported using Mythbuntu
[17:08] <tgm4883> yes
[17:09] <qwebirc55812> is there anything special in order to get the IR blaster working with the directv box as far as channel changing goes?
[17:09]  * tgm4883 shrugs
[17:10] <tgm4883> I don't use the IR blaster on mine
[17:10] <qwebirc55812> Sorry, I am a linux newb, so forgive me if I ask basic questions  :)
[17:10] <qwebirc55812> What are your recommendations ?
[17:11] <tgm4883> when I used directv, i used usb/serial channel changing
[17:11] <tgm4883> I have cable now, so I use firewire channel changing with my HDPVR
[17:11] <tgm4883> I've never really used IR blasting, so I can't comment
[17:11] <qwebirc55812> Can I just hookup a USB cable from the directv box to my computer?
[17:11] <tgm4883> No, IIRC you need a special cable
[17:12] <tgm4883> I haven't done that in 2+ years
[17:12] <qwebirc55812> I see, I assume it's a better way to go?
[17:13] <tgm4883> yea I think so
[17:14] <qwebirc55812> ok, this cable, do I have to buy it online or is it something I can grab from radio shack or something
[17:17] <tgm4883> You could probably find it in radio shack, I bought mine online. I'm not sure which is cheaper
[17:17] <tgm4883> sec

[17:18] <tgm4883> take a look at that, I'm pretty sure thats what i read up on
[17:21] <qwebirc55812> hmm, it says there that I also need a Null modem in addition to a DB9-USB cable, do you remember having that?
[17:23] <tgm4883> I don't recall
[17:23] <tgm4883> I used it with a D11 and an H20
[17:26] <radicalbiscuit> hello all. I have a frontend/backend machine where I would like to disable X and run it headless without removing any software so that I have the option to boot up the gui if and when I want. Without inittab and sane init levels, I'm not sure what to do from here. Any suggestions?

[18:31] <Jkessler> i installed a wireless card in my desktop then installed ubuntu 10.10.  it boots up fine, but it won't let me exit mythtv to configure my network and run updates.  "Are you sure you want to exit mythtv?"   i select "yes" then it locks up.  i've tried ctrl + alt + f5, logged in, then startx but i won't restart x
[18:33] <Jkessler> also, where do i reconfigure the remote?  i purchased a TBS 6981 pci-e dvb-s2 dual tuner card, i selected the default remote and there is no reponse.  but then again, i'm not sure if the card is configured right
[20:43] <Nede> hi chat
[20:44] <Nede> How do I know if the form of CI TechnoTrend S2-3200 is seen by Mythbuntu
[20:55] <gregL> Nede, I have no knowledge if this card will work in Linux or not,but you can check  http://linuxtv.org/       If it works in Linux generally it will work in Mythbuntu
[20:57] <Nede> gregL, in linuxtv card + CI works!!!!!
