[01:05] <qwebirc33122> So this is my first install of Mythbuntu (12.04) Should I try to use the update manager to update the .25 bug fixes and how.  I enabled it using the control center and see the additional packages in the update manager but when trying to preform the update it seems to hang at "applying changes"  I've only selected the additional mythbuntu packages not the full list of 204 updates
[01:05] <tgm4883> superm1, ^^ this seems like something we need to fix. It's likely that SAMBA issue
[01:06] <tgm4883> qwebirc33122, open a terminal and do "apt-get upgrade"
[01:06] <tgm4883> it's likely asking you about a samba conf file
[01:07] <qwebirc33122> Should I run the apt-get upgrade now even though it seems to be hanging? or try to force restart run the command and update again?
[01:12] <qwebirc33122> I went ahead and rebooted, will this then allow the upgrade to complete or should I take a different approach?
[01:51] <qwebirc33122> Looks like it worked, it did stop at a prompt asking about a samba configuration file if that helps
[03:59] <qwebirc16586> Is there a guide to get a serial port ir reciever working?  I don't see it in the options in the control center
[19:34] <bobweaver> Hello there I was wondering if I could get some help setting up mythtv I have got a capture card and downloaded the firmware and installed it and the card is now being read by myth in the backend. I tried to set up a channel but it does not work. I keep on getting errors over and over that say Could not connect to the master backend server Is it running ?  Is the IPaddress set for i in mythtv-setup. thanks for your time
[19:35] <tgm4883> bobweaver, how did you install mythtv?
[19:35] <bobweaver> everything is set to 127.0.0.1 should I cahnge to localhost ? or the ip address of the machine itsself ?
[19:36] <bobweaver> hey tgm4883
[19:36] <bobweaver> sudo apt-get isntall mythtv
[19:36] <tgm4883> 127.0.0.1 should work.
[19:36] <bobweaver> tgm4883,  can I pm you ?
[19:36] <tgm4883> that will install it, I'm not sure what it will do for configuration though
[19:36] <tgm4883> ok
[19:36] <bobweaver> thanks
[23:20] <lucidium> I'm having some weird graphical issues using the mythbuntu livecd on my computer with the video card connected to a television. Everything is scrolling and flashing incessantly, even when switching out of X into a virtual console. This didn't happen when I loaded up a knoppix or gparted livecd, so anyone know what gives?
[23:24] <superm1> it's possible that the newer version of X in precise isn't handling as gracefully as the older ones on those older distro CD's
[23:25] <superm1> try booting with nomodeset (it's in the boot menu on the CD)
[23:25] <lucidium> superm1, will do
[23:30] <lucidium> superm1, much better, thank you. Will I need to throw in those options into my grub.conf after installation?
[23:30] <superm1> lucidium: ah good.  well that depends, are you using a closed source driver after install?
[23:30] <superm1> nvidia or fglrx drivers will probably not hit this same issue you're hitting
[23:32] <lucidium> yeah, I was intending on using the nvidia binary blobs, so that's good.
[23:42] <superm1> the installer should offer you to install directly, so you should be fine on first boot then hopefully
[23:43] <superm1> it would probably be worthwhile to file a bug if you can that you can't boot X, it's certainly a nouveau bug then
[23:44] <superm1> you can file it using 'ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-video-nouveau' when you finish the install while you're booted in with nomodeset hopefully
