[00:36] <dubrun> Running Mythbuntu 12.04 and trying to get HDMI video working on an ASRock z68 w/ i5 2500k
[00:38] <dubrun> installed it with a VGA connection but moved it out to my living room after i set it up, i'm betting that's the problem
[00:38] <dubrun> but would love some troubleshooting help. I'm a linux n00b
[04:44] <windbuntu> is this something i can download and install similar to ubuntu, but so that i can watch tv free?
[05:09] <rhpot1991> windbuntu: if you have a tv source then sure (cable, antenna, etc)
[05:09] <rhpot1991> and a tv tuner to capture said tv source
[05:09] <windbuntu> i have cable tv
[05:10] <windbuntu> i would like to get rid of it if i can get free tv
[05:10] <windbuntu> i dont understand what mythbuntu actually is
[05:11] <rhpot1991> windbuntu: http://www.mythbuntu.org/
[05:13] <yuki-onna> rhpot1991:  so if i re-installed all the stuff again with a dvi connection it might make it work maybe?
[05:13] <rhpot1991> yuki-onna: no need to reinstall
[05:14] <rhpot1991> just swap cables and reboot
[05:14] <yuki-onna> i changed vga cables
[05:14] <rhpot1991> yuki-onna: no luck I take it?
[05:14] <rhpot1991> try dvi then, or hdmi if you can
[05:14] <yuki-onna> and tried a dvi-hdmi connector and no dice
[05:14] <rhpot1991> converter might cause problems
[05:14] <rhpot1991> if you aren't having any luck its possible your tv isn't sending that information
[05:15] <rhpot1991> what model?
[05:15] <yuki-onna> ummm
[05:15] <yuki-onna> it is a homebrew pc but,  an asus m2nvp-vm board
[05:15] <rhpot1991> nono, the tv
[05:16] <yuki-onna> samsung tv of some sort
[05:16] <yuki-onna> a 720p one, also tried my new monitor and it had  no luck
[05:17] <yuki-onna> some acer thing with dvi (this machine), via, and hdmi
[05:18] <rhpot1991> yuki-onna: if you can't get it to detect you will need to fill out /etc/X11/xorg.conf yourself
[05:18] <rhpot1991> might be able to google something like xorg and your tv model and get a hit
[05:18] <yuki-onna> how do i do that
[05:18] <yuki-onna> hmmm
[05:19] <yuki-onna> will  have to look
[05:19] <yuki-onna> but of snow i am tired an need sleep
[05:20] <rhpot1991> there is an nvidia config utility you can use, but you need to get a working x session first
[05:20] <rhpot1991> might be able to just pick a resolution like 800x600, get it working, then use that
[05:21] <rhpot1991> yuki-onna: throw together a forum post and you might get some better specifics in there
[05:21] <rhpot1991> !forums

[05:21] <rhpot1991> make sure you include that error from your xorg log
[15:57] <qwebirc49060> my dmesg gives this warning: (0) unknown ioctl on ctn91xx mpeg device (-2143521279)
[15:58] <qwebirc49060> I could use some help connecting that ceton card to MythBuntu. Thanks
[16:09] <qwebirc49060> my dmesg gives this warning: (0) unknown ioctl on ctn91xx mpeg device (-2143521279). Could this be why Mythbuntu cannot poll the device?
[16:26] <qwebirc49060> Does anyone know if Mythbuntu will probe a Ceton Infinitv4 without a cable connection?
[19:09] <qwebirc49060> Can someone help me add a ceton infinitv4 to mythbuntu's backend?
