=== qwebirc94674 is now known as TrumpetX
TrumpetXmorning everyone, got a question - maybe there's an answer out there.  I just upgraded my frontend to the latest (myth .25) and all of a sudden my "slim" profile playback is SUPER high contrast15:20
TrumpetXif I swap to openGL, it's all better, but I can't do HD under openGL on this mini foxconn box i'm using as a frontend15:20
TrumpetXis there some setting that changed or is this an ubuntu -> my video drivers issue?15:21
patdk-lapwhat kind of video did it have?15:43
patdk-lapyou do know the vapdu isn't supported anymore, I believe15:43
TrumpetXi was on the cpu profile15:47
TrumpetXnever used vapdu15:47
TrumpetXthe new .25 options don't have the cpu option anymore, just "normal" "slim" etc15:48
TrumpetXafk for a bit15:49
tgm4883patdk-lap, why isn't vdpau supported anymore?18:07
tgm4883dekarl, we don't use gdm anymore, we use lightdm18:09
dekarltgm4883: so when I was asked "gdm or lightdm" while updating, that wasn't really a question?18:28
dekarlI chose gdm :(18:28
tgm4883hmm18:36
dekarli removed gdm, autologin still doesnt work and manual login only worked on third or fourth attempt.18:37
tgm4883when were you asked18:37
tgm4883I don't recall it asking during upgrade18:38
tgm4883Did you install Ubuntu+mythtv, or Mythbuntu18:38
dekarlI installed mythbuntu 11.04 last year, today I updated via 11.10 to 12.0418:38
dekarland I have to manually configure on IR event device to /dev/lirc0, whats the correct way to do that? change the configuration to the real device or add some rule to make the correct device show up as larc0?18:40
dekarlI had to manually select the mythbuntu session to succeed. "[+40.14s] DEBUG: Failed to load session file /usr/share/xsessions/ubuntu.desktop: No such file or directory" is a failed attempt, and after selecting the proper session its "[+53.18s] DEBUG: Starting session mythbuntu as user user" instead18:45
tgm4883dekarl, why is it trying to load ubuntu.desktop?18:46
tgm4883odd18:46
dekarlI guess thats the defaults from the lightdm package or something. maybe the installation order got confused by updating?18:46
dekarlits possible I reinstalled gdm / lightdm as the ubuntu community suggested that...18:47
dekarlcould that explain where the autologin went, too?18:48
* tgm4883 shrugs18:48
tgm4883honestly I usually recommend a fresh install and LTS->LTS18:48
