[00:36] Running Mythbuntu 12.04 and trying to get HDMI video working on an ASRock z68 w/ i5 2500k [00:38] 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] but would love some troubleshooting help. I'm a linux n00b [04:44] is this something i can download and install similar to ubuntu, but so that i can watch tv free? [05:09] windbuntu: if you have a tv source then sure (cable, antenna, etc) [05:09] and a tv tuner to capture said tv source [05:09] i have cable tv [05:10] i would like to get rid of it if i can get free tv [05:10] i dont understand what mythbuntu actually is [05:11] windbuntu: http://www.mythbuntu.org/ [05:13] rhpot1991: so if i re-installed all the stuff again with a dvi connection it might make it work maybe? [05:13] yuki-onna: no need to reinstall [05:14] just swap cables and reboot [05:14] i changed vga cables [05:14] yuki-onna: no luck I take it? [05:14] try dvi then, or hdmi if you can [05:14] and tried a dvi-hdmi connector and no dice [05:14] converter might cause problems [05:14] if you aren't having any luck its possible your tv isn't sending that information [05:15] what model? [05:15] ummm [05:15] it is a homebrew pc but, an asus m2nvp-vm board [05:15] nono, the tv [05:16] samsung tv of some sort [05:16] a 720p one, also tried my new monitor and it had no luck [05:17] some acer thing with dvi (this machine), via, and hdmi [05:18] yuki-onna: if you can't get it to detect you will need to fill out /etc/X11/xorg.conf yourself === len is now known as Guest69808 [05:18] might be able to google something like xorg and your tv model and get a hit [05:18] how do i do that [05:18] hmmm [05:19] will have to look [05:19] but of snow i am tired an need sleep [05:20] there is an nvidia config utility you can use, but you need to get a working x session first [05:20] might be able to just pick a resolution like 800x600, get it working, then use that [05:21] yuki-onna: throw together a forum post and you might get some better specifics in there [05:21] !forums [05:21] The Mythbuntu forums are located at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=301. If you aren't getting a timely response here, there are lots of very active individuals there that may be able to help. === dekarl1 is now known as dekarl [05:21] make sure you include that error from your xorg log [15:57] my dmesg gives this warning: (0) unknown ioctl on ctn91xx mpeg device (-2143521279) [15:58] I could use some help connecting that ceton card to MythBuntu. Thanks [16:09] my dmesg gives this warning: (0) unknown ioctl on ctn91xx mpeg device (-2143521279). Could this be why Mythbuntu cannot poll the device? [16:26] Does anyone know if Mythbuntu will probe a Ceton Infinitv4 without a cable connection? === yuki-onna_ is now known as yuki-onna [19:09] Can someone help me add a ceton infinitv4 to mythbuntu's backend?
