[00:04] <tritoch> how can i find out why my mythtv-backend service is not starting?
[00:05] <tgm4883> tritoch, look at the mythbackend log
[00:06] <tgm4883> /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log
[00:09] <tritoch> thank you, looking
[05:09] <Patrickdk> in my case, it's stupid upstart
[05:09] <Patrickdk> it starts mythbackend long before my ip's are configured
[05:09] <Patrickdk> so mythbackend fails
[06:05] <Memphis> hey, I've got a newly setup Mythbuntu oneiric machine here, the issue I am having is that my 1080P TV only gets detected as 720P (my previous build had the same issue initially, but it was easy to override with the Nvidia drivers/control panel). The new system is an LGA1155 G820, 4GB ram, 512MB Radeon 5450 (running the opensource 'radeon' driver I believe -)
[06:06] <Memphis> I have previously tried the proprietary driver, through the utility, but I couldn't find a way to get around the tearing issues it causes
[06:07] <Memphis> so my question currently is, how can I force a custom resolution for 1080P using the built in driver for my radeon 5450
[06:07] <Memphis> when I plug the machine into a 1080P computer monitor it has no issues running 1080P
[06:07] <Memphis> it's faulty EDID information from the TV I suspect
[20:01] <solars> hey, by mistake I deselected 'use android remote' on installation, can I somehow re-activate this on the installed version?
[20:17] <tgm4883> solars, open up mythbuntu-control-centre
[20:17] <tgm4883> the LIRC section should have that
[20:28] <solars> ah nice, thanks
[20:37] <solars> hm seems I don't have sound :(
[21:09] <Cueball> Hi all. Looking to setup some frontends using low end diskless machines. What are the minium requirements for and SD frontend?
[21:54] <Patrickdk> 1gig drive, 1ghz cpu, video card?
[21:55] <Patrickdk> probably need atleast 512megs ram, 1gig is happy
[21:56] <Patrickdk> personally I'm using a 2gig ram, no disk, dual core2 cpu, with ipxe iscsi boot
[21:57] <Patrickdk> oh, using a gt220 video card too
[21:57] <Patrickdk> but that does hdtv
[23:22] <Cueball> Patrickdk: So something smaller wouldn't handle being an SDTV frontend?
[23:26] <Patrickdk> heh? I thought I defined the specs pretty clearly
[23:27] <Patrickdk> some thing like 1gig ram, 1ghz cpu, and some kind of video card
[23:27] <Patrickdk> where for hd, I'm using 2gig ram, dual core2 cpu, and a gt220 video card
[23:35] <Cueball> Patrickdk: Sorry. I just thought that it wouldn't need something as high spec as that to be a front end.
[23:42] <Patrickdk> a 1ghz cpu?
[23:42]  * Patrickdk wonders how that is high spec
[23:43] <Patrickdk> if you go with a higher spec video card, and use it to decode, you can drop the cpu down more
[23:43] <Patrickdk> but is it even possible to get systems that slow?
