[02:32] <tzanger> good evening... I have a 10.04 mytbuntu install that worked great. I added an 11.04 slave backend and it helpfully upgraded the db schema on the master backend without any prompt or warning
[02:32] <tzanger> so, given that I just discovered that the mythbbuntu automatic backups weren't working, I'd like to try to bring the 10.04 mythbuntu install to 11.04 to try to get some semblance of a working system back. Is this possible?
[02:33] <tzanger> can I get to the mythtv install for 11.04 without upgrading the entire ubuntu system on the master backend to 11.04?
[02:35] <tzanger> oh wait, I just found the backups
[02:35] <tzanger> I can get my db back from a week ago. that'll work
[02:35] <tzanger> it might be a really, really good idea for a SLAVE backend to throw up a huge freaking warning before just blindly upgrading the db schema
[11:19] <Owner> hi, i just installed mythbuntu on a laptop with a completely broken display, connected to a TV with VGA input
[11:19] <Owner> when I ran the install the TV was automatically used as the display
[11:19] <Owner> now that i completed the install and rebooted it isn't
[11:20] <Owner> could anyone suggest how i can reconfigure over the network or otherwise?
[11:21] <Owner> i tried ssh but couldn't find gnome-display-properties and tried vnc but coudlnt find any config dialog for that
[11:24] <mycosys> so you couldnt get vnc working, or couldnt figure how to configure x?
[11:24] <Owner> i got vnc working
[11:24] <Owner> but i just had access to the mythtv menu
[11:24] <mycosys> also - mythbuntu doesnt use gnome - it uses xfce
[11:24] <Owner> and none of the config options seemed to lead to that
[11:25] <Owner> ah ok
[11:25] <Owner> that makes snese
[11:25] <mycosys> if you had vnc up it go into the system menu on the xfce panel
[11:26] <mycosys> i set up TV via xorg.conf - but i have an nvidia card
[11:31] <Owner> do you mean the system menu from where there is a large menu that fills the screen with tv/weather/etc?
[11:31] <mycosys> oh
[11:31] <mycosys> get out of myth
[11:31] <Owner> it is not a normal desktop but a specia
[11:31] <Owner> oh ok
[11:31] <Owner> then i will be in an xfce desktop?
[11:31] <mycosys> then you will be on the mythbuntu desktop
[11:31] <mycosys> uhuh
[11:31] <Owner> ok, awesome
[11:31] <Owner> i think i should be able to find it from there
[11:32] <mycosys> btw - winswitch
[11:32] <mycosys> is awesome
[11:32] <mycosys> is a very nice cross platform frontend for x forwarding that can be disconnected from and re-attatched to
[11:33] <mycosys> ie - you can run a remote X as tho it were on your local machine, without worrying what is on the remote machine's screen
[11:33] <mycosys> you can disconnect, and then when you reconnect the app will be as you left it
[11:33] <mycosys> you can move it from screen to screen
[11:34] <mycosys> actually - most of that is xpra, winswitch is a frontend to it
[11:36] <Owner> that sounds great, not just for this but for other things
[11:36] <Owner> i assume that you can tell by the nick that i'm a windows user? :)
[11:37] <mycosys> mainly cos u were using vnc
[11:37] <Owner> oh ok
[11:38] <mycosys> x forwarding is more efficient for what ur tryn to do lol
[11:38] <mycosys> dont worry - i am typing to u form windows myself
[11:39] <mycosys> winswitch freed me from finding a half decent x server that would run on win7
[11:43] <Owner> thanks a lot for your help mycosys
[11:43] <Owner> i got the display working now
[11:43] <mycosys> glad it was some lol
[11:43] <Owner> i will try winswitch too i think
[11:44] <Owner> thanks again
