[00:18] <lwizardl> okay removed the firewire card and myth found the hdpvr again. so looks like i wont be using that for now atleast
[00:19] <lwizardl> used the /bin/true and now mythtv is displaying the channel on watch tv section
[00:33] <lwizardl> nope didn't work
[00:34] <lwizardl> i'll bbl going to find my lirc cable and other stuff that I may need for this
[15:54] <sabhain> anyone run into "EDAC MC0: UE" errors before?  I get clean mem-test, but really unusable system due to EDAC errors.  Wondering how to rationalize the two.
[16:03] <Jay2k1> sabhain: one fix is to disable quick memory test/quick boot/something like that in the bios
[16:04] <Jay2k1> you can also disable the check or module in linux, don't really remember, google could help
[16:16] <sabhain> Jay2k1: is there a possibility that this is a software thing, and not evidence of broader hardware problems?
[16:17] <Jay2k1> yes
[16:17] <Jay2k1> i've seen it on some servers
[16:18] <Jay2k1> it was a known bug of the edac kernel module or something, i can't quite remember
[16:29] <sabhain> glad to hear that.  This is an older server (on 10.10) .. and recently started having some issues where it would lock up.
[16:30] <Jay2k1> in newer releases the bug is probably fixed
[16:30] <sabhain> it's now pretty much unusable, so I was thinking of reloading it on 12.04 (it's on 10.10 now)
[16:30] <Jay2k1> hmm, locking up though... the inly issue i had was that it was spamming the console
[16:30] <Jay2k1> only*
[16:31] <Jay2k1> but no lockups or anything
[16:31] <sabhain> would the bug have appeared out of nowhere after 3+ years of stability?
[16:31] <Jay2k1> probably not :/
[16:31] <Jay2k1> memtest was clean?
[16:31] <sabhain> and once I have these servers set up .. i *never* touch them for updates
[16:31] <sabhain> I let memtest run for about an hour last night and it was clean
[16:31] <Jay2k1> well, that sounds more like hardware then
[16:32] <Jay2k1> when do these lockups happen? randomly? only after running for a while? under load? etc
[16:33] <sabhain> it's now at the point where they happen within a few hours of startup.  Generally, if I boot the system and leave it alone, it'll be fine.  But once I log into the console .. it freezes up with some EDAC errors, and a Seg fault.
[16:33] <Jay2k1> uhh
[16:33] <sabhain> It's pretty well unloaded in the current state .. I have pulled the mdadm drives out and dropped into another box for the time being.
[16:34] <Jay2k1> tried booting a live cd (e.g. mythbuntu or sysresccd) and playing wound?
[16:34] <Jay2k1> around*
[16:34] <sabhain> .. good idea.  I hadn't done that yet, I can try that next
[16:35] <Jay2k1> good luck :)
[16:35] <Jay2k1> work's over now, time for me to head home
[16:37] <sabhain> thanks for the help.  have a good evening.
