[06:04] <__raven_> hi
[06:04] <__raven_> how to configure backend on a cli-only server?
[06:05] <Shadow__X> x forwarding should work
[06:05] <__raven_> would work if i could activate x if necessary without problems
[06:08] <Shadow__X> huh?
[06:17] <__raven_> ?
[06:17] <__raven_> startx does not work at all, xxinit only with lxsession but that messes up all other config and does autostart
[06:22] <Shadow__X> and x forwarding wouldn't work with that?
[06:22] <__raven_> xforward only works with a running x on the host machine
[06:24] <__raven_> sudo apt-get install lxc
[06:24] <__raven_> sry
[06:26] <Shadow__X> ah ok
[07:13] <__raven_> any ideas?
[14:04] <Shadow__X> __raven_: i am pretty sure x server is a requirement
[14:04] <Shadow__X> so just have it run temporarily
[14:04] <Shadow__X> i may have found something
[14:06] <Shadow__X> http://www.mythtvtalk.com/mythtvsetup-without-x-3951/#post15331
[14:06] <Shadow__X> you can do that
[14:06] <Shadow__X> but from everything i have seen you need x server. so unless omseone else here finds something
[14:06] <Shadow__X> you need to install x just change the run level and not have it run on boot
[16:14] <__raven_> Shadow__X: yes i know but as i said my problem is (not really related to mythtv) to configure that cleanly
[16:15] <__raven_> xserver i mean because xinit does not work, startx does not work, lxsession is wrong and so on
[16:16] <Shadow__X> is it a bad install or something?
[16:16] <__raven_> dont know
[16:16] <__raven_> cannot start x as user
[16:16] <__raven_> but as root it does not help much
[17:26] <__raven_> another problem: mythbuntu-control-centre does not work at all via ssh xforward. settings do not take effect and window stays busy forever
