[01:25] <Kwisher> keep seeing this error: Protocol version check failure. The response to MYTH_PROTO_VERSION was empty. This happens when the backend is too busy to respond, or has deadlocked due to bugs or hardware failure.
[01:33] <TandyUK> anyone else thought about writign a tablet template for mythweb?
[01:34] <TandyUK> is mythbackend listening on its correct external ip address (ie not 127.0.0.1)
[01:35] <TandyUK> or have you installed a firewall and forgotten to open ports (check iptables -L)
[01:36] <TandyUK> tbh, with the table layout, all i care about is listings and recorded programs, and the buttons under "play on frontend"
[01:36] <TandyUK> s/table/tablet
[03:00] <qwebirc12301> I'm sort of a clueless noob and hope you will forgive me... I've been running MythTV for a year or so. Just installed 160 updated (big mistake) and now MythTV reboots to "MythTV Login:" - no desktop. Where do I start? Backend is still working fine, recording programs for me. Thanks for any ideas!
[03:01] <qwebirc12301> ... 160 updates ...
[03:02] <qwebirc12301> AMD Zacate motherboard with ATI Radeon integrated graphics. I was running the ATI Catalyst beta to get audio over HDMI. Everything worked fine...

[05:18] <superm1> qwebirc12301: depending on how you installed the video driver i'm suspecting that's the problem
[05:18] <superm1> if you installed it by hand and didn't use .deb's, you'll probably need to reinstall it
[05:18] <superm1> or install an updated one, or one from the repositories instead
[05:20] <qwebirc12301> With the right device driver, if I reboot will I get the desktop back?
[05:20] <qwebirc12301> (thanks very much!)
[05:31] <superm1> qwebirc12301: Yep
[05:31] <superm1> the driver you had installed is probably fine, it's just that if it's hand installed it won't automatically rebuild the kernel modules possibly when you update the kernel
[05:31] <superm1> i'm guessing that's probably what happened
[05:47] <qwebirc12301> Thanks. I did aticonfig --uninstall but will wait until the current recording finishes to reboot. Thanks very much for the help! If I comeup with a solution, should I write it up somewhere? Thanks again.
[05:55] <superm1> qwebirc12301: sure feel free to blog about it
[05:55] <superm1> no problem
[19:22] <Kwisher_wrk> any idea why an arch secondary b/e all of of a sudden will not communicate with a ubuntu master b/e?
