qwebirc82075Is there any plans please for a mythbuntu 14.04.2 point release?02:08
tgm4883It's been released02:09
qwebirc82075If that is the case how come the download links on the download page for an ISO don't point to it?02:10
tgm4883qwebirc82075: refresh the page02:17
qwebirc82075Thanks for changing the links.03:31
qwebirc82075What are the changes in the Mythbuntu 14.04.2 point release please? Can they please be put in a news post?03:39
tgm4883qwebirc82075: same underlying changes from ubuntu https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes/ChangeSummary/14.04.203:42
qwebirc82075Any mythbuntu specific ones (mythtv, xmltv, nvidia drives (I think there was some debs for them at one point)?03:45
tgm4883We do mythtv updates via our ppa03:46
tgm4883Same with xmltv03:46
tgm4883Nvidia I assume have been updated03:47
tgm4883New kernel03:47
qwebirc82075proprietary drives I mean. My card is a GeForce GTX 750 Ti - 2GB GDDR503:47
qwebirc82075I mean drivers - GFX card is a GeForce GTX 750 Ti very new for Nouveau.03:48
qwebirc82075Plus the additional drivers switcher has stopped working with this card in the system. Too new for nouveau causing the proprietary to not be listed. Even if the packages for them are available to install manually.03:50
qwebirc82075If the gfx card isn't supported by nouveau but is supported by proprietary drivers. You can't switch using the function to do so in the operating system "Additional Drivers" as they aren't listed at all.03:56
qwebirc82075It may even be the same for other open source drivers vs proprietary when open source drivers don't support the hardware.03:56
=== taknev_ is now known as taknev
=== hpeter_ is now known as hpeter
qwebirc42776I may have found an issue with the new point release of mythbuntu.17:59
qwebirc42776Currently the "Additional Hardware" or "Additional Drivers" isn't working correctly when the open source drivers don't support the hardware.18:08
qwebirc42776The reason being is that the open source and proprietary drivers don't get listed as options. So even if the open source drivers don't support the hardware but the proprietary can you can't select them. As they aren't even listed which is both of them.18:13
qwebirc42776It would be better if the select could display a message by the open source (or proprietary) driver option (when hardware incompatible) with a reason. But still list other options with the incompatible ones (possibly proprietary drivers or open source).18:16
tgm4883qwebirc42776: that doesn't sound specific to mythbuntu18:44
qwebirc42776It isn't but does get unhelpful as the live mythtv frontend isn't as helpful. No hardware accelerated video decoding and/or encoding.18:46
qwebirc42776Though it could do with being bug reported.18:50
qwebirc42776Can then affect potentially the transcoding activity for streaming or transferring to other devices.18:55
