[00:09] <sabhain> should the restore be done from a root user ?
[00:09] <sabhain> not seeing any of my cards or settings after restoring.
[00:11] <sabhain> here's the output of the restore operation: http://pastebin.com/qrdGd5Zz
[00:21] <sabhain> so my install must have picked up that there's another backend on the same LAN, and set itself up as a slave ..
[00:27]  * sabhain sure does find ways to make his life difficult
[13:21] <qwebirc43755> tgm4883: Any news on this bug?  https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+bug/1184643
[13:22] <qwebirc43755> I've got myself stuck on 12.10 which doesn't seem to have 0.27 builds.....I can update and just remove pulseaudio myself but was waiting to use the 12.10 systems I still have for testing
[16:40] <sabhain> is there a setting somewhere that dictates the directionality of the guide?  (time is horizontal vs. vertical)?  Or is that baked into the themes?
[19:34] <sabhain> wow is 12.04 buggy for me lately
[20:43] <sabhain> now why wouldn't the "mythtv" UID and GID be the same in 2 brand new installs done the right way?
[20:48] <tgm4883> sabhain, "right way"?
[20:49] <tgm4883> eg. you installed mythbuntu?
[20:49] <sabhain> tgm4883: that's a typo .. I meant "same way"
[20:49] <tgm4883> well, it would take the next available UID/GID, so what are each of the UID and GUDs?
[20:50] <sabhain> yes.  just migrated away from my longstanding (and loved) diskless setup on 10.04 to 12.04
[20:50] <sabhain> did clean installs from the mini ISO onto new SSD's in every spot, and the UID/GID's vary everywhere.
[20:50] <tgm4883> odd, it should just grab the next available
[20:51] <sabhain> my master BE has it as 113:122, a FE/SBE has it as 110:117 and the other FE has it as 111:119
[20:51] <sabhain> they're close, so it did the same process everywhere, just a few off.
[20:52] <sabhain> I'm still using NFS directories / mounts for the Videos and video data since I like to use ISOs
[20:52] <tgm4883> sabhain, does your master BE have something else at 110:117?
[20:52] <sabhain> so this wreaks havoc with that setup, since none of the FE's can update the movie data / artwork
[20:52] <sabhain> tgm4883: how do I determine that?
[20:53] <tgm4883> sabhain, look in /etc/passwd and /etc/group
[20:58] <sabhain> tgm4883: on the BE usbmux is 110:46 and landscape is 109:117
[20:58] <tgm4883> sabhain, that would explain why it couldn't pull the same UID/GID for mythtv
[21:01] <sabhain> tgm4883: can I safely migrate mythtv on all boxes to 1050:1050 (or some other unused area)?
[21:01] <tgm4883> sabhain, I don't see why not
[21:02] <sabhain> what about all the files / directories that mythtv owns?  will the system maintain the links?
[21:03] <sabhain> ie. ... if I do a usermod, will all of the permissions that are set to mythtv still be set to mythtv if UID goes from 113 to 200?
[21:07] <sabhain> tgm4883: sorted it out .. there's a posting over @ askbuntu
[21:19] <sabhain> tgm4883: usermod: user mythtv is currently logged in
[21:19] <sabhain> i've shutdown the FE's .. and stopped the backend.  Need to kill anything mythtv is running?
[21:20] <sabhain> there's nothing running for mythtv
[21:21] <sabhain> no users logged in the BE at the moment
