| billybigrigger | hey all, im looking to dedicate a machine to my television, just wondering if all i want to do is play the movies i have on my hdd, like without the pvr features of mythbuntu, is it a waste of time? | 08:39 |
|---|---|---|
| billybigrigger | like is it overload, should i just stick it out with natty? | 08:39 |
| yunosh | hi, i see that bluetooth support is removed from network manager in oneiric by default. why is this and is easily to re-add? | 16:03 |
| yunosh | brb | 16:05 |
| tgm4883 | yunosh, it should be easy to add again, since we removed just the bluetooth packages | 16:13 |
| yunosh | ah, okay, it's sufficiently modular. great. | 16:13 |
| tgm4883 | yunosh, it was removed, because we needed to free up some disk space and most people don't use bluetooth with their media centre | 16:13 |
| tgm4883 | superm1, that is correct right, should just need to readd the packages | 16:14 |
| tgm4883 | we might want to do a writeup on that | 16:14 |
| yunosh | what do most people use for wireless keyboards and mice if not bluetooth? | 16:14 |
| tgm4883 | yunosh, most people don't use mice and keyboards | 16:14 |
| tgm4883 | most use IR remote controls | 16:14 |
| yunosh | true | 16:14 |
| superm1 | tgm4883, yes that's correct | 16:18 |
| superm1 | yunosh, just need to apt-get install gnome-bluetooth and you're fine | 16:18 |
| === superm1 changed the topic of #ubuntu-mythtv to: Mythbuntu 11.10 released :: Please visit www.mythbuntu.org for more information :: Paste logs @ http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com ** Please stick around for people to answer your question | ||
| yunosh | gnome? even for xfce? oh, and btw, wasn't next mythbuntu version supposed to use a new window manager? or is that for 12.04? | 16:20 |
| superm1 | yunosh, well just because it's called gnome-bluetooth doesn't mean we can't use it | 16:20 |
| superm1 | xfce doesn't have it's own bluetooth implementation | 16:21 |
| superm1 | we haven't explored using any new window managers afaik | 16:21 |
| yunosh | just wondering | 16:21 |
| superm1 | xfce has been fine for what it's needed to do i thinks | 16:21 |
| yunosh | weird. dunno where i heard about the wm change | 16:22 |
| superm1 | if there is a compelling reason to do it, we could explore the option though | 16:22 |
| tgm4883 | yunosh, did you hear about lightdm vs gdm maybe? | 16:34 |
| yunosh | hm, yeah, maybe i mixed this up the display manager | 16:34 |
| altj | is anyone else seeing "rejected by tracker - Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker." when trying to torrent the mythbuntu isos? | 20:15 |
| tgm4883 | altj, I've not heard it, and I haven't checked it since I'm at work | 20:15 |
| altj | I've been seeing it all day today with bittornado. I was able to successfully torrent w/ktorrent. | 20:19 |
| tgm4883 | altj, odd | 20:20 |
| tgm4883 | canonical makes the torrent and hosts the tracker, so you might want to see if you have similar issues with the ubuntu torrents | 20:20 |
| altj | the other ubuntu torrents work fine | 20:21 |
| altj | (didn't try kubuntu,xubuntu,lubuntu) | 20:21 |
| DaveMorris | congraz on another fine release btw guys | 21:42 |
| DaveMorris | just looking through the release notes and it mentions controlling mythbuntu from an Android device | 21:43 |
| DaveMorris | is that simply controlling the Mythfrontend or also controlling the whole desktop? | 21:43 |
| superm1 | just mythfrontend | 21:44 |
| DaveMorris | so mythmote then | 21:45 |
| superm1 | yeah | 21:45 |
| superm1 | it's just offering another way for people without remotes really | 21:46 |
| DaveMorris | I've been using it for a while now, quite nice. Just been looking for something to control Gnome with | 21:46 |
| DaveMorris | not made my mind up yet | 21:46 |
| superm1 | well you can always use vnc for that | 21:46 |
| superm1 | it's just a bit clunky | 21:46 |
| DaveMorris | yeah, I find my little logitech keyboard (The one you use two thumbs on) suitable and not looked to hard yet | 21:47 |
| DaveMorris | been playing with squeezebox running on my frontend instead | 21:48 |
