[00:02] just want to say i switched from SageTV to mythbuntu (ltsp/diskless) and am so happy. I used mythtv like 10 years ago and it is great to see how much easier things are [00:02] it got lots disks and runs 24/7 [00:02] which box do you suggest for diskless mythtv? [00:03] im using zbox id41 [00:03] pxe boot? [00:03] fanless system? [00:03] ion2 and 2GB of ram. plays 1080p with hdmi audio at 5% cpu usage [00:03] yep pxe [00:04] i put a little 8GB sdhc stick in for theme and thumb caching [00:04] you got vlan or vpn set up? [00:04] lan side [00:04] all on the same vlan [00:04] ur want to pxe over vpn? [00:04] not if I have to ^^ [00:05] dont, same vlan works great [00:05] pxe over a vlan might need a helper [00:05] mhm pxe needs an extra dhcp server, right? [00:06] unless u have access to the config of the one running, yes/ [00:06] i run ddwrt on my router [00:06] perfect then u can add the right commands [00:07] i would pull that out though and run it on ur myth backend. look at mytbuntu [00:07] but it can stay on ur router with the right config [00:07] yeah, the thing is I have ubuntu-server with xfce already setup [00:07] ah [00:07] dont want to start over with a new installation [00:08] and i dont know if mythbuntu in a vm will integrate well [00:08] well, u could install ltsp and set things up yourself. its just a fat client [00:08] u prob domt have to [00:09] i could add the mythbuntu repos [00:09] i believe ltsp can create a myth fat client [00:09] right [00:09] how do I get rid of the awful configuration interafce [00:09] ? [00:10] just edit the .conf ? [00:10] is there something ncurses based or sth? [01:00] Hi, i was wondering if someone here could help. I'm trying to install mythbuntu on a parallel primary partition using wubi. However upon reboot im greated with a error saying sda cannot be found [01:00] Does anyone here have any experience with wubi ? [01:01] chroot into installation, and fix fstab using uuid [01:04] sauc1er: i haven't explored any similar possibilities , that might be worth exploring [01:05] sauc1er: how exactly can i do that ? with a liveUSB linux stick perhaps ? [01:05] sauc1er: in other words the installation doesn't even complete [01:06] however i suspect you know that [01:06] sry, pretty busy atm [01:07] there is a great deal of info in the buntu wiki [01:07] really comprehensive [01:08] i read it cover to cover, it make some small references to fstab but it doesn't say exactly what the problem is related to [01:13] ill be back in a moment === hpeter_ is now known as hpeter === hpeter_ is now known as hpeter === hpeter_ is now known as hpeter [14:11] I need some help setting up a bare-bones mythtv backend on oneiric. I'd be grateful if someone could walk me through this. :) [19:53] when i startup mythbuntu it goes from the main desktop to what looks like a different desktop completely with a bluebackground and one folder. What do i make of this , its very odd. [19:54] It is almost as if MB is starting a completely different desktop over the original one that has all of my icons. [20:05] does anyone know what to make of this ? [20:05] on bootup MB goes from one desktop to another [20:10] ok i have installed a mythbuntu systemn for a friend consisting of a backend and 2 frontends [20:10] now im stuggling to answer some baic questions, and google isnt helping [20:11] they are: How do you create a playlist [20:11] for both music and videos [20:11] pretty simple request i think [20:29] brb [20:49] got a bit of a odd happenings here, my main desktop disappears on startup and i am greeted with a different blue desktop
