[02:08] <qwebirc82075> Is there any plans please for a mythbuntu 14.04.2 point release?
[02:09] <tgm4883> It's been released
[02:10] <qwebirc82075> If that is the case how come the download links on the download page for an ISO don't point to it?
[02:17] <tgm4883> qwebirc82075: refresh the page
[03:31] <qwebirc82075> Thanks for changing the links.
[03:39] <qwebirc82075> What are the changes in the Mythbuntu 14.04.2 point release please? Can they please be put in a news post?
[03:42] <tgm4883> qwebirc82075: same underlying changes from ubuntu https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes/ChangeSummary/14.04.2
[03:45] <qwebirc82075> Any mythbuntu specific ones (mythtv, xmltv, nvidia drives (I think there was some debs for them at one point)?
[03:46] <tgm4883> We do mythtv updates via our ppa
[03:46] <tgm4883> Same with xmltv
[03:47] <tgm4883> Nvidia I assume have been updated
[03:47] <tgm4883> New kernel
[03:47] <qwebirc82075> proprietary drives I mean. My card is a GeForce GTX 750 Ti - 2GB GDDR5
[03:48] <qwebirc82075> I mean drivers - GFX card is a GeForce GTX 750 Ti very new for Nouveau.
[03:50] <qwebirc82075> Plus 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.
[03:56] <qwebirc82075> If 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] <qwebirc82075> It may even be the same for other open source drivers vs proprietary when open source drivers don't support the hardware.

[17:59] <qwebirc42776> I may have found an issue with the new point release of mythbuntu.
[18:08] <qwebirc42776> Currently the "Additional Hardware" or "Additional Drivers" isn't working correctly when the open source drivers don't support the hardware.
[18:13] <qwebirc42776> The 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.
[18:16] <qwebirc42776> It 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).
[18:44] <tgm4883> qwebirc42776: that doesn't sound specific to mythbuntu
[18:46] <qwebirc42776> It isn't but does get unhelpful as the live mythtv frontend isn't as helpful. No hardware accelerated video decoding and/or encoding.
[18:50] <qwebirc42776> Though it could do with being bug reported.
[18:55] <qwebirc42776> Can then affect potentially the transcoding activity for streaming or transferring to other devices.
