[04:39] <qwebirc8151> just reinstalled mythbuntu but keep getting mysql errors in control center can someone tell me how to fix that
[04:50] <qwebirc8151> anyone there?
[04:57] <qwebirc8151> how do i update mythbuntu to the latest version?
[05:04] <qwebirc8151> anyone still up?
[14:29] <qwebirc8151> trying to do updates on new mythbuntu install and it just hangs.  i let it run overnight and it never finished
[14:29] <qwebirc8151> any ideas?
[14:32] <Hydr0p0nX> do the updates in smaller batches
[14:32] <Hydr0p0nX> try to narrow down which update is causing the problem
[14:58] <qwebirc8151> how do i narrow it down?  It asked me when i first started up mythbuntu there were updates available i said to do them.  Little screen is black with only title bar visable but been running all night
[14:59] <qwebirc8151> is it safe to end the task?
[18:59] <qwebirc4446> I have a mid-2007 mac mini.  I'd love to do a clean install of mythbuntu, but I'm totally new to linux.  Is the current version even compatible with my machine? 1.83GHz core2duo 2gb ram
[18:59] <qwebirc4446> thanks for any/all help

[19:59] <wangel> greetings everyone.  Quick question:  I  have a backend running:  MythTV Version : v0.26.1-34-g81ce5c0    .  If I download 14.04 to install as a new frontend, will it work?  0.27 doesn't use protocol version 75 does it?
[20:00] <wangel> or does 14.04 not have 0.27?
[20:09] <wangel> or still; if I decide to upgrade to 0.27, if I change the repo in the mythbuntu control center and run apt-get update, will it update my db and everything? :D
[20:11] <Hydroponx> 14.04 should have 27 by default, if i'm not mistaken (and I could be)
[20:11] <wangel> that's what I thought
[20:13] <Colossus_> I was thinking that I had read somewhere they required that you have 0.26 before upgrading, though mythbuntu says to wait for 14.04.1 to do the upgrade... don't know where I saw that
[20:14] <Hydroponx> yea, I'm 0.26 right now haven't made the jump to 0.27 because I haven't found a windows build for it yet
[20:14] <Colossus_> you run front and back ends on windows or just frontends?
[20:14] <Hydroponx> 1 frontend
[20:14] <Colossus_> nice
[20:15] <Hydroponx> the combined front/backend is mythbuntu
[20:15] <Colossus_> I may have to try it out on windows again... would add additional versatility to the frontend
[20:15] <Hydroponx> IO
[20:15] <Hydroponx> I've also wired the house w/ cat 6e
[20:16] <Colossus_> yeah, I did that a couple years ago... pain, but worth it
[20:16] <Hydroponx> yea, i finally broke down last winter
[20:17] <Hydroponx> crawlspace made it not so bad, had to run speaker wire too figured, might as well do both since i'm in the crawlspace
[20:18] <Colossus_> ha
[20:18] <Colossus_> yeah, looking back, I should have run more cables... but oh well, too lazy to redo it
[20:18] <Hydroponx> I want to add two more cat 6 runs, but they aren't "needs"
[20:19] <Colossus_> yeah, i was able to work some feng shui (sp?) on my hardware to make due with what I have run
[20:23] <Hydroponx> I just had to re-build my backend due to a fried board
[20:25] <Colossus_> ouch
[20:25] <Hydroponx> eh, it wasn't too bad
[20:26] <Hydroponx> found a board for ~65 picked up fx-6300 on sale
[20:26] <Colossus_> I recently switched systems for my backend... to something more powerf riendly
[20:26] <Colossus_> ahh, nice... 6 core...
[20:26]  * Colossus_ has wondered if that's useful
[20:26] <Colossus_> :D
[20:27] <Colossus_> I moved from a quad core athlon ii to a turion n54l (hp microserver)
[20:27] <Hydroponx> i've been converting all my movies lately
[20:27] <Hydroponx> had load averages > 9 for hours on end w/ no real issues
[20:27] <Colossus_> ahh
[20:28] <Colossus_> I usually use another system for transcoding
[20:28] <Colossus_> I did try out realtime transcoding to h264 from live tv when I was running the quad though... for my tablet
[20:28] <Hydroponx> my only complaint right now is there's a brief audio stutter when changing channels
[20:28] <Colossus_> but then found a player with hardware accelerated mpeg2 that just plays them straight up, so I figured I didn't need it
[20:29] <Colossus_> hmm
[20:29] <Colossus_> yeah, wangel was saying 0.27 was supposed to contain a bunch of improvements for live tv
[20:29] <Colossus_> I'm still on 0.25 :(
[20:29] <Hydroponx> oh
[20:29] <Colossus_> though I rode out 11.10 with 0.24.1 until it started telling me every day to "upgrade your stupid system"
[20:29] <Colossus_> so I don't know when I'll upgrade :)
[20:29] <Hydroponx> nice
[20:30] <Kwisher> will i have any issues importing my .26 db into a fresh .27 install?
[20:30] <Hydroponx> I wouldn't think so
[20:30] <Hydroponx> you'll probably have to run mythtv-setup to upgrade it to .27 though
[20:31] <Kwisher> mythtv-setup would be a given on a fresh install
[20:33] <Colossus_> don't forget to backup
[20:33] <Kwisher> yeah, clonezilla image before i begin :)
[20:33] <Kwisher> i backup the db daily
[20:34] <Colossus_> heh, man, I clonezilla's my image before separating my recordings from my system and db when I switched machines... talk about a loooooong backup
[20:35] <Kwisher> yeah, my recordings are on a separate partition
[20:35] <Colossus_> definitely better that way
[20:35] <Colossus_> I h ave a 2tb for recordings, a 2tb for videos/movies and right now a 250gb for system/db, but it's slow, so I may upgrade that
[20:36] <Hydroponx> oh
[20:36] <Hydroponx> I guess i did over-engineer mine
[20:36] <Hydroponx> I have 4 2tb drives shared for storage, + 500GB boot
[20:36] <Colossus_> heh, wow
[20:36] <Colossus_> oh, yours is a nas as well?
[20:36] <Hydroponx> could be :)
[20:36] <Colossus_> heh
[20:37] <Hydroponx> but, no, it's primarily myth... moved my music over working on migrating movies and converting to mp4
[20:37] <Hydroponx> then I can start on dvd's
[20:37] <Colossus_> ahh
[20:38] <Colossus_> yeah, having dvds on the system instead of in a stack/case somewhere is so much handier
[20:38] <Colossus_> although those dvd changer towers are really cool looking
[20:38] <Colossus_> :D
[20:38] <Hydroponx> GF was hating it for a while
[20:38] <Hydroponx> recently found an IR receiver that works with both myth and my harmony remote
[20:39] <Colossus_> cool
[20:39] <Colossus_> link?
[20:39] <Colossus_> :D
[20:39] <Colossus_> I bought a flirc... but still haven't set it up
[20:39] <tgm4883> flirc ftw
[20:39] <Hydroponx> it's an old HP p/n 5188-1667
[20:39] <Colossus_> hmm
[20:39] <tgm4883> I bought one and it's awesome
[20:40] <Hydroponx> only disappointment with it is the red/blue/yellow/green buttons aren't being picked up
[20:40] <tgm4883> super easy to map it to keyboard keys, only have 1 remote now
[20:40] <Colossus_> I've h ad pretty good success with the generic rosewill remotes and receivers... though some have horrible usage angles
[20:40] <Colossus_> for use with mce remotes anyway
[20:42] <Hydroponx> this one works really well, a little slow to respond some times
[20:42] <Colossus_> hmmm
[20:43] <Colossus_> http://www.amazon.com/HP-Infrared-Receiver-Center-5188-1667/dp/B000Z7XJME
[20:43] <Hydroponx> that's it, just beware
[20:44] <Hydroponx> a lot of people are seeling other models that don't work as well and labeling it the 5188-1667
[20:44] <Hydroponx> at least, that's what I've heard about happening on ebay
[20:44] <Colossus_> ahh, ebay... yeah... wild west these days
[20:46] <Hydroponx> I learned a valuable lesson the other day
[20:46] <Colossus_> always check for a toilet seat in the dark before sitting down?
[20:46] <Hydroponx> the high-voltage wall boxes are not well suited for cat6
[20:47] <Colossus_> ahh
[20:47] <Colossus_> :)
[20:47] <Hydroponx> fixed 2 of the 3 I used those for
[20:48] <Hydroponx> was causing a problem with the cable crimping and intermittent connectivity drops
