qwebirc97659 | in way over my head here... trying to get IrDA (or any other type of IR) working on mythbuntu 11.04 and a older toshiba laptop (satellite P105, driver page on toshiba website says this is a CIR SMSC IR port)... I've tried the normal forum hopping and google'ing but most of the info I have found appears to be out of date or not working for me | 06:58 |
---|---|---|
qwebirc97659 | i've posted what i think is relevant dmesg log entries and ternimal outputs here: pastebin.com/PWFeQd5E | 07:07 |
Zinn | [pastebin.com] relevant log entries... DMESG: [ 15.757803] irda_init() [ 15.757819] NET: - Pastebin.com | 07:07 |
dekarl | qwebirc97659: I've been looking at that this week, too. Seems like Irda and CIR (remote control) stuff have nothing to do with eachother... | 07:08 |
qwebirc97659 | yeah, i've gathered there are two distinct peices of this puzzle but i'm still working on getting linux to even recognize the low level hardware interface | 07:09 |
qwebirc97659 | I'm sure my laptop has IRDA capability but there isn't any BIOS options for the IR port. I have found the chart on this page that give me some information on what values to use while configuring the thing but I just can't get it rolling.... http://irda.sourceforge.net/smcinit/#description | 07:13 |

dekarl | just so it doesn't get lost (got no wiki account at hand) http://www.mythbuntu.org/wiki/network-boot-mythbuntu-diskless needs this hint http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9244438&postcount=2 to get the NVIDIA driver installed | 08:47 |

rileyp | does irsend work with a mceusb in natty | 12:21 |
Shred00 | i don't suppose anyone is maintaining period (daily/nightly, weekly, per commit, etc.) packages for master are they? | 14:18 |
Shred00 | and alternatively, is anyone maintaining a /debian diff for master to build "mythbuntu" packages? | 14:49 |
Shred00 | i suppose perhaps: https://code.launchpad.net/~mythbuntu/mythtv/mythtv-master | 14:52 |

Shred00 | assuming i can figure out how to use bzr. what's so bad about git that we need yet another SCM? | 14:53 |
Shred00 | anyway, am i supposed to check out lp:~mythbuntu/mythtv/mythtv-master into a mythtv master git tree? | 14:53 |
Shred00 | ahhh. to answer my first question though... https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu/+archive/0.25 | 14:54 |

Shred00 | heh. Zinn must be a bot. | 15:00 |
Zinn | Hi Shred00, something I can help you with today? I am a bot, use !help to see what I can do. | 15:00 |
Shred00 | boy can i spot them! :-D | 15:00 |
Shred00 | Zinn: can you make mythtv stable and stop deadlocking on the backend? :-) | 15:01 |
Zinn | Hi Shred00, something I can help you with today? I am a bot, use !help to see what I can do. | 15:01 |
tgm4883 | Shred00, we were using bzr before they were using git | 16:33 |
Shred00 | tgm4883: yeah, i figured it might be something like that. git just seems so ubiquitous now. | 20:58 |
