| RudeTux | i'm seeking some help for mythbuntu | 01:03 |
| RudeTux | i want to install and boot it from an external hd | 01:03 |
| RudeTux | but i dont know how to do this | 01:04 |
| RudeTux | i would be running mythbuntu in my htpc hd and the frontend on the external hd | 01:05 |
| RudeTux | if someone could help me in this i would be very apreciatted | 01:05 |
| RudeTux | i forgot to mention that this is my first contact with mythbuntu and that i am using ubuntu not for about 3 years | 01:08 |
| mycosys | so what are you trying to do, and what is the problem? | 01:10 |
| RudeTux | i tried to install mythbuntu on my ext hd from a win7 laptop (lame) using universal usb installer and the iso, but when all is done i reboot the laptop to try and boot the hd but an error message just keeps appearing | 01:12 |
| RudeTux | something like boot whatevr missing, press ctrl del to reboot | 01:13 |
| RudeTux | from what i googled there seems to be missing some OS boot files | 01:14 |
| RudeTux | but i dont know how to solve this one | 01:15 |
| RudeTux | :/ | 01:15 |
| RudeTux | win 7 sux so bad | 01:15 |
| RudeTux | lol | 01:15 |
| RudeTux | the question is, am i doing the right thing to install mythubuntu in my external hd or is there any other procedure? | 01:18 |
| mycosys | depends on your laptop - but what you definitely ARE doing VERY wrong is : | 01:19 |
| mycosys | (10:13:50 AM) RudeTux: something like boot whatevr missing, press ctrl del to reboot | 01:20 |
| mycosys | how the heck can we help you with no information? | 01:20 |
| RudeTux | heheh you are right but to help more i would need to reset my laptop (wich i am using for mirc right now). i'm positive the info is a very comon one on vista and 7 "boot files missing, please press ctl+alt+del to reboot" | 01:24 |
| RudeTux | i seached that this is sometinh related to dual boot | 01:26 |
| RudeTux | dont know if i'm right | 01:26 |
| RudeTux | but for know i would only be doing the instalation of mythbuntu in my ext hd from this laptop | 01:28 |
| RudeTux | the ext hd would be conected to my htpc wich would be also using mythbuntu | 01:28 |
| RudeTux | i formated both my ext hd and htpc hd (both fat32) and would be doing the instalation on both from my laptop because i dont have any other pc at home | 01:31 |
| RudeTux | both my htpc and laptop dont have any cd or dvd drive, because i curently cant aford one for my htpc and cause my laptop didnt bring one,that's why i'm instaling it this way | 01:33 |
| RudeTux | so if someone could explain me how to properly install mythbuntu in a external hd in way it is fully bootable, that would be a start | 01:35 |
| RudeTux | (sorry for extending myself) | 01:35 |
| tgm4883 | does anyone have a new (not upgraded) Mythbuntu 11.04 install and can check something for me? | 03:03 |
| tgm4883 | I would like to know output of | 03:03 |
| tgm4883 | ls -l /var/lib/mythtv/ | 03:04 |
| dmfrey | anyone seeing slow channel lock with hdpvr on 10.10 or 11.04? | 03:06 |
| tgm4883 | dmfrey, i'm got an hdpvr on 10.04.2, but I don't use livetv | 03:11 |
| tgm4883 | I don't think it has slow lock | 03:11 |
| dmfrey | tgm4883: yeah, in 10.04, it wasn't an issue, upgrade to 10.10 and every channel change you get a popup...failed to lock, then after a few seconds it locks and changes the channel | 03:13 |
| tgm4883 | dmfrey, what is your timeout set to? | 03:13 |
| dmfrey | i updated it to 6 seconds, but it didn't really seem to matter | 03:14 |
| dmfrey | the time always seems to be the same whether it was default or 6 seconds | 03:14 |
| tgm4883 | IIRC, i've heard recommendations of 10 seconds | 03:15 |
| dmfrey | ok, i will update it to 10 and try it out | 03:15 |
| dmfrey | actually it does something else funny as well | 03:15 |
| dmfrey | if I am recording on hdpvr, and happening to be watching part of that recording when another recording starts, it stops the hdpvr and immediately starts a second one | 03:17 |
| dmfrey | it may do this a bunch of times over the course of the recording duration, but usually happens when a recording starts on another tuner and only for the hdpvr | 03:18 |
| dmfrey | i am not too concerned about it right now, got some new hardware an gonna rebuild it in a few weeks, but thought it was odd and wondered if anyone else was running into it. | 03:20 |

| pladijs | I have a script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/ which contains "DISPLAY=:1 /usr/bin/firefox": this starts firefox in case of a resume after pm-suspend. When i invoke "sudo pm-suspend" this works fine. When pm-suspend is called by mythwelcome, however, nothing happens. Any ideas? | 14:43 |
| pladijs | when i store the output of "whoami", i get nothing when the script is run from mythwelcome | 14:45 |
| pladijs | shouldnt this be "root"? | 14:46 |
