[03:38] i would like to know if there is a simple how to on installing myth tv via command line from start to finish, if anyone can get some answer. [04:05] * Batshua drops a pin [14:40] if anything i have a question. getting into a gui for setting up mythtv [14:46] yuki-onna: mythtv-setup [17:32] what after that, i did mythtv-setup. [17:34] you are done with setup [17:34] yuki-onna: what are you trying to do now? [17:35] setting up the channels and such, also maybe make it a front end if needed but able to make it a backend if i use my apple tv or something as a front end [17:40] channel setup is done in mythtv-setup [17:40] I [17:40] I'd recommend running a frontend on the same box as you get things setup [17:40] and then moving to additional frontends after that [17:43] gives me a gtk error about not being open the display [17:44] "xprop: unable to open display" [17:52] requires x [17:54] how do you install/get it? [17:54] yuki-onna, I thought you said you already did mythtv-setup? [17:54] thought i did, but it was where i got stopped [17:55] how do you have an x-less install? [17:55] i idk [17:55] are you physically at that machine or logged in via SSH? [17:55] at it [17:55] yuki-onna: so you have command line only? [17:55] yes [17:55] to sure why [17:55] by design or accident? [17:56] yuki-onna, did you install Ubuntu or Mythbuntu? [17:56] mythubuntu [17:56] what version? [17:56] i think 12.04? forget the command to find out [17:56] lsb_release -a [17:57] 12.04 lts codename precise [17:58] rhpot1991, sounds like x crashed [17:58] probably video drivers [17:58] yuki-onna: pastebin your /var/log/xorg.log file [17:59] * rhpot1991 double checks that name [17:59] Xorg.0.log [18:00] can i get into it via os x terminal or such? [18:01] it also says there are updates forget how to do that [18:01] yuki-onna: sudo apt-get install pastebinit [18:01] then pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log [18:04] paste.ubuntu.com/987572 [18:04] [paste.ubuntu.com] Ubuntu Pastebin [18:17] Fatal server error: [18:17] [ 13.765] no screens found [18:17] [ 13.765] [18:17] do you have it hooked up to a monitor? [18:19] yeah [18:19] my lcd tv via vga [18:20] yuki-onna: was the tv turned on when you booted? [18:20] try to restart and see if that helps, while the tv is left on [18:20] should have been [18:20] can try changing monitors too [18:20] if that doesn't work try another vga cable [18:20] some of them suck at sending signals back [18:21] or try hdmi or dvi [18:21] I get the same error if my receiver is not turned on and I boot [18:21] cause it tries to detect the monitor and gets no response [18:31] this computer lacks hdmi [18:32] now with the dvi -> hdmi adapter it says display not set [18:40] hey all.. [18:41] i use 0.24-fixes and the xml grabber tv_search_ch.. and have some character issues with äöü... if i run the xml grabber manually, the xml output seems correct and with this encoding: .. [18:42] but in the mythtv database i see ü like fÃ¼r [18:42] instead of für [18:42] any hint/idea? [18:58] pre booting yields the same result cannot open [19:07] if i can get some solder and fix something i would be able to do a dvi connection on something. [19:37] I have a question regarding error with JpegImagePlugin.py file for mytharchive, if anyone can help [19:38] I get Line 425 in _save [19:38] raise IOERROR "cannot write mode %s as JPEG" im.mode [19:39] yuki-onna: try a different cable first [19:39] the alternate is to create your xorg configuration yourself instead of letting it auto detect [19:40] Sorry, not certain how X -configure relates to mytharchive (mythburn error)... [19:41] unless that message is not for me :) [20:07] i did
