[00:11:20] FPSDavid: Is it a common issue for opening up the Guide to freeze the entire frontend?
[00:12:01] Dagmar: If you have an nVidia card maybe
[00:13:48] justinh: it might be a common issue. I've never tolerated livetv long enough to know

[00:17:48] justinh: oh bugger. I just realised something. I won't be able to just apt-get build-dep mythtv if I want to build trunk. not now
[00:18:44] cesman: why not?
[00:18:59] cesman: I'd think that would work for everything you need, then just get qt4
[00:19:09] laga: you can
[00:19:16] laga: i just upload trunk packages a few hours ago.
[00:19:19] laga: ;)
[00:19:54] justinh: to where?
[00:20:12] justinh: offishul repos?
[00:20:22] laga: PPA
[00:20:28] laga: official? are you nuts? :)
[00:20:32] laga: https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-trunk-0.22/+archive

[00:20:58] justinh: I think I'll be ok. I'll see how I go
[00:21:07] laga: you probably need to set QTDIR
[00:21:29] laga: g'night
[00:23:12] justinh: night
[00:23:31] justinh: well, configure just worked so maybe I'm good

[00:28:42] my2keh: I've decided it was the recordings that was causing my high CPU usage
[00:28:43] PatrickDK: causes the wife to hit you when you press the wrong key?
[00:28:47] clever: justinh: sounds like a video codec i used back in the dos days
[00:31:55] justinh: oh damn. I bet this vmware player thingy can't use both cores in the freebie version
[00:32:37] GreyFoxx: the free vmware server can
[00:33:25] justinh: ooo
[00:33:52] justinh: well, seems to be using both cores here anyway, so...
[00:34:57] justinh: gonna be officially back on the development track soon :)
[00:35:19] clever: what host os?
[00:35:26] justinh: not telling
[00:35:37] clever: windows then?:(
[00:35:58] justinh: so? I need my laptop for work so it's staying clean
[00:36:18] MaliutaLap (MaliutaLap!n=nikolai@kiev.lusan.id.au) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:36:25] clever: which is exactly what i wanted to hear:P
[00:36:26] clever: i know how to get linux on windows without emulation
[00:36:38] justinh: people talk about using windows like it's something people should be ashamed of
[00:36:49] clever: i know and i do that most of the time
[00:37:05] clever: but colinux works great to get linux and windows to equal SHARE the cpu
[00:37:10] justinh: those people should try & do something really eye-poppingly creative on linux
[00:37:17] justinh: and don't say Elephant's Dream :P
[00:38:28] clever: colinux is a linux kernel that acts like a windows nic driver
[00:38:37] clever: so windows will give it cpu/ram whenever it asks
[00:39:00] justinh: sounds soft & hairy, like a 10 year old boiled sweet you find in an old coat pocket
[00:39:15] clever: it works perfectly
[00:39:26] clever: it just cant access any of the hardware from the linux side
[00:39:39] my2keh: justinh>> you are always very creative with your descriptions lol
[00:39:44] clever: ive got ubuntu 7.10 and a slave backend running inside colinux
[00:40:16] clever: the only problems i have with colinux is the X11
[00:40:30] clever: it cant access video so all graphics are done thru tcp to xming(win32 x server)
[00:40:32] justinh: I kinda need a good working X server
[00:40:42] clever: it works but it cant handle xv
[00:40:43] justinh: and a fast one at that
[00:40:53] justinh: not fussed about xv though
[00:41:10] clever: i tried mplayer thru it once and its horid
[00:41:14] clever: 2 seconds/frame:P
[00:41:25] justinh: I'll make an image of my newly installed machine tomorrow, then maybe I'll toy with the idea of dual boot
[00:41:32] clever: i get faster framerates when using x11 over tcp with 2 seperate computers
[00:41:51] justinh: I need to photograph the licence key on the underside of the box before it wears away to nothing, too
[00:42:17] clever: same thing is happening to my laptops
[00:42:30] justinh: bet yours are all older than mine though
[00:42:56] justinh: they're not even frickin laminated. all that cash for an OS & the most important part of it- the bit you NEED isn't protected from the elements
[00:43:14] clever: dell c600 d600 and d630
[00:43:29] justinh: whatever they are. anyway, this lappy is like what 3 weeks old

[00:46:30] justinh: maybe I'll give my copy of ableton a spin in wine one day. it might run better on there – not that it's given me any jip since I downgraded to xp
[00:46:57] justinh: wonder what midi controller support is like in linux
[00:47:16] clever: i can bearly even find a player for midi files
[00:47:31] clever: with the generator in software
[00:47:53] gbee: justinh: you asked why people people talk about using Windows like it's something shameful, well IMHO Windows is like that £1000 Rolex which does the exact same job as a £5 watch – ok, not true for everyone but for most people
[00:47:58] blackest: hi all
[00:48:05] justinh: loads of linux apps even support VST plugins
[00:48:33] clever: virtual studio?
[00:48:35] justinh: gbee: yeah but there's that & there's realy going religious on people. I've seen it & it's ugly
[00:48:38] blackest: can be erm fun midi in linux
[00:49:19] blackest: ever tried guitar pro via wine ok till it gets complicated and then urgh

[00:49:54] gbee: if you need Windows for that specific application – then fair enough, but people who run windows "just because" make me smile – if you don't mind paying £50,£100,£200 for the various licenses when you can get it for free ...
[00:49:55] justinh: heh so I wouldn't be holding my breath about ableton under wine then – but apparently it can be made to work
[00:50:20] blackest: um made to work is a broad term
[00:51:04] justinh: oh yeah – I mean if it wasn't for the fact my wife needs _real_ MS Office apps on her laptop she'd have linux on hers.. and as for mine it'd just make life easier. a totally portable mythfrontend.. I can jive with that ;)
[00:51:35] blackest: well there are ways and means
[00:51:55] blackest: how about virtualbox integrated into your linux desktop
[00:51:59] justinh: when I was shopping around I went beyond feeling pity for all the sheeple I saw being taken in my salespeople
[00:52:15] justinh: s/my/by
[00:52:34] gbee: I'm not even especially cheap ;) I just object to paying more than I need to, I might buy the most expensive laptop etc but I still shop around to get the best price
[00:53:04] blackest: i'm cheap but then i tend to know what i am buying
[00:53:04] justinh: what I DO object to is being forced to buy hardware with an OS which isn't even fit for purpose
[00:53:28] Tomasu (Tomasu!n=moose@S010600016cb89986.ed.shawcable.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:53:39] blackest: had a bit of fun with office 2007 today
[00:53:46] justinh: minimum 1GB RAM indeed. have you seen vista with only that amount of ram? jees
[00:54:19] justinh: and I wasn't making up the dig about my 50GB partition which was over 40GB occupied – that was just some apps & the OS
[00:54:48] blackest: what a stupid interface and of course the doc was in the docx format and the printer wasn't about to work but couldnt transfer it straight off coz the doc was in a stupid format
[00:55:02] gbee: aye, but the current court cases/antitrust stuff against microsoft has shown that to be a deliberate understatement in order to drive sales
[00:55:05] Anduin (Anduin!n=awithers@adsl-69-110-25-68.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net) has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[00:55:40] blackest: always has been windows 95 ran in 8 meg of ram
[00:55:51] blackest: well crawled in 8 meg
[00:56:24] justinh: I can honest;y say I've never seen a BSOD in XP.. well maybe after I gave up trying to capture video on it
[00:56:40] blackest: I have a few times
[00:56:50] blackest: mostly its bad drivers
[00:57:12] justinh: oh yeah & the time I mistakenly installed a wrong driver. that was a reinstall job
[00:57:33] gbee: people wanting windows on these new netbooks is a mystery to me – so they want reduced battery life, no HDD space and £50+ on the asking price ... for what exactly? Those things are only specced for stuff like browsing the net, office apps, email and maybe SD video – why do you need XP for that?
[00:57:49] justinh: but then the first time I tried linux (RH3) I ended up reinstalling cos my monitor didn't support the res I changed it to
[00:58:02] blackest: mythfrontend runs ok on a EEE btw :)
[00:58:02] GreyFoxx: gbee: fear of the unknown
[00:58:09] GreyFoxx: and, they drank the kool-aid
[00:58:36] blackest: generally its fear
[00:58:55] justinh: even when it's no longer unknown people still flock back to windows though. why else would there be online howtos for putting XP on the likes of the eee?
[00:59:03] blackest: The one thing linux is bad at is hiding the complexity
[00:59:20] justinh: it's getting better, but it feels like water torture
[00:59:52] justinh: but if it wasn't for the complexity I doubt I'd ever have got involved to the level I'm at now so I look at it as a GOOD thing
[00:59:53] highzeth: blackest thats one of linux biggets pros imo
[01:00:01] blackest: i had this arguement yesterday skype against sip the thing skype gets right for most people is its easy
[01:00:49] justinh: gbee: I stumbled upon a page that said mediaportal was going to be ported to linux yesterday
[01:00:49] blackest: give a simple interface to someone and mostly they are happy
[01:01:12] mrice (mrice!n=mrice@cpe-71-64-96-62.neo.res.rr.com) has left #mythtv-users ("Leaving")
[01:01:21] GreyFoxx: Sip his hard?!?! YUou need to know 3 things, your sip server/proxy, your username and password. Done
[01:01:24] justinh: turned out to be a load, but that led me to find an svn repo of a mediaportal skin. drown in xml files! DROWN!
[01:01:42] gbee: justinh: hmm, I'm dubious of that – porting from Windows to linux is harder than the reverse IMHO
[01:01:43] GreyFoxx: Now, some apps might try to be the be all end all app for you and have lots of other stuff
[01:01:57] gbee: justinh: heh
[01:02:00] justinh: gbee: it's deeply entrenched in .NET
[01:02:09] blackest: A linux toaster would allow you to fine tune the temperature range time to the millisecond and take half an hour to set up for breakfast ;)
[01:02:24] justinh: I'm not kidding about the number of xml files btw. no wonder so many of their skins suck
[01:03:03] justinh: blackest: yeah but it wasn't developed just to make toast damnit. don't you know anything? gawd man
[01:03:08] gbee: these netbooks have customised OSs which do hide the complexity, in fact they are designed to be utilitarian like mobiles – things are made harder by using windows since the interface isn't designed for small screens with limited resources (CPU, RAM, HDD)
[01:03:15] my2keh (my2keh!n=my2keh@0013100509D9.cpe.persona.ca) has quit ()
[01:03:44] justinh: here's hoping Shuttleworth never runs out of money...
[01:04:11] gbee: people don't try to replace the OS on their phone with Windows just because they have it on their computer ....
[01:04:29] Dagmar: You could have fooled me
[01:04:29] GreyFoxx: BUT people do try to run linux on everything :)
[01:04:37] ** Dagmar looks in the direction of a Treo **
[01:04:40] justinh: it has a PORT!
[01:04:45] justinh: look! we can hack it!
[01:04:53] blackest: hmm i havent checked how the linux port is going on my xda recently
[01:05:04] Dagmar: GreyFoxx: that's because they're cheap bastards and anything they can get someone else to tell them how to do is free
[01:05:09] justinh: "but it's a keyring with a flashing LED inside"... "Yeah but...."
[01:06:02] justinh: Dagmar: but you have to BUY the damn hardware in the first place – you effectively get the OS free
[01:06:02] blackest: its been done already if your on about the ones with the little screens
[01:06:32] blackest: justinh i sorted the voip thing its working well
[01:06:36] justinh: I can understand wanting to add features the original manufacturer never bothered to add. that's cool
[01:06:39] GreyFoxx: Man, I gotta say I love this Nokia N810, and the LCARS theme on it kinda gives the nerd in me the giggles
[01:06:47] jhulst_ (jhulst_!n=jhulst@unaffiliated/jhulst) has quit (No route to host)
[01:06:51] justinh: blackest: cool
[01:07:11] justinh: maybe I will consider going into telecoms consulting then :D
[01:07:44] blackest: in fact i started with a vonagething and hacked it to use sipgate and voipstun its now giving two lines to a pabx with 16 extensions
[01:08:54] gbee: hmm, talking of LCARS, didn't someone on the production team for Star Trek have the forsight to patent that interface – now that Microsoft is implementing it they could have made a fortune
[01:08:58] blackest: thats good fun to play with :) i am going to install it in a guest house later this month once i get it fully configured
[01:09:20] justinh: gbee: did they? oh hell better tell dagmar
[01:09:31] blackest: or picard
[01:09:35] Dagmar: You can't patent artwork styles.

[01:09:51] Dagmar: Michael Okuda basically "gets props" for inventing most of it
[01:10:08] Dagmar: How is Microsoft "implementing" it?
[01:10:09] gbee: justinh: heh, well it's not quite LCARS but their glass projection touchscreen stuff reminds me of it
[01:10:10] GreyFoxx: I love it on this little it. Has all the right sounds and such. feels like hwo I would expect a PADD to feel
[01:11:41] justinh: love the idea of their multitouch panel thingy. don't love the idea of watching telly on a screen covered in grease, though
[01:12:20] Dagmar: Yep. That's full of fail.
[01:12:51] justinh: quick, need to get thinking cap on & invent & patent a smear-free touchscreen
[01:13:54] blackest: is net access slow on an n810
[01:14:11] GreyFoxx: black: I don't find it particular slow
[01:14:12] justinh: hahaha.. make it like the lens covers of F1 onboard cameras.. put it on rollers, clean it inside. quick! to the patent office!
[01:14:21] GreyFoxx: using wifi that is
[01:14:26] GreyFoxx: I don't use it via my cellphone
[01:15:00] GreyFoxx: I find the voip client quite handy. I use it much more than I would have expected
[01:16:50] cafuego: blackest: it's slow if you try to use facebook.
[01:17:18] cafuego: Then again, so is my quad core ;-)
[01:17:26] GreyFoxx: I login to my facebook account maybe once a month, so I haven't run into that :)
[01:18:01] blackest: sorry just been watching a couple of videos and the first on spent a long time loading the maemo web page
[01:18:33] GreyFoxx: maemo.org is slow, regardless of the n810
[01:18:37] cafuego: it's not the quickest page in the word, i tyink.
[01:19:39] GreyFoxx: I just setup a dev vm for it today, so I can compile a few apps I want to use on it, should be fun :)
[01:19:45] blackest: the interface doesnt look very intuitive and the planet image is a bit ...
[01:20:46] cafuego: GreyFoxx: Oh neet. I should do that actually.
[01:20:59] blackest: mind the video showed a web browser a media player and that 2+2 = 4
[01:21:13] GreyFoxx: caf: heh
[01:22:17] blackest: the guy struggled to get the video started on it took a cpl of goes
[01:22:19] GreyFoxx: ooh I have a test for it's browser
[01:22:23] ** GreyFoxx loads mythweb's listings page **
[01:23:30] GreyFoxx: Cool, only slightly slower than my laptop, and considering how many channels that's pretty cool
[01:24:43] cafuego: bloody bloody
[01:24:58] justinh: Britons warned to leave Georgia. Well DUH!
[01:25:13] clever: how would i go about using a certain alsa device for playback?
[01:25:33] justinh: "hey, there's a little bit of a local disagreement going on over there chaps, you might want to go away for a while".. jees
[01:25:39] ** cafuego cannot be arsed setting up a 32bit chroot **
[01:26:09] clever: cafuego: qemu can emulate 32bit for linux progs and relay the syscalls onward
[01:26:11] blackest: did you see theres a few confused americans about where the russians are invading
[01:26:17] clever: but it probly still needs 32bit libs
[01:26:34] cafuego: clever: Oh i have a bunch of vms and other stuff
[01:26:46] blackest: qemu is quite nice if a bit slow
[01:26:50] cafuego: i guess i could plonk it on the 32bit etch vm
[01:26:59] clever: blackest: yeah i ran xp in qemu, it was horid slow
[01:27:15] blackest: i've got 2000 in quemu on a usb stick
[01:27:16] ** cafuego runs xen on the multicore boxes, that seems to work fine **
[01:27:44] blackest: since it doesnt need to install on the host system its pretty brilliant

[01:29:59] clever: ahave: and does /etc/fstab have sda or hda for your new partitions
[01:30:03] ahave: sda and also sdb, sdc
[01:30:16] clever: blackest: yeah but the update may have changed hda->sda
[01:30:21] clever: and he may have been using hda on the fstab

[03:08:27] clever: robbins876: locate uses a index which may point to files that have since been deleted

[03:08:42] robbins876: ?
[03:08:48] clever: yep
[03:09:03] robbins876: why would they have magically deleted i wonder? It was a LOT of files
[03:09:22] clever: dont know what could have deleted them but it could also be other things
[03:09:36] robbins876: such as?
[03:09:47] clever: depends on where you where keeping them

[03:11:05] clever: kdub: yeah i get that problem sometimes and thats the first thing i check
[03:11:28] robbins876: yeah, it's mounted, because i can see other things that are on this drive, including some of the other seasons of simpsons.

[03:16:57] clever: i havent used others much so i cant compare them
[03:17:13] robbins876: how long should this fsck take?
[03:17:24] clever: depends on the size and speed of the drive
[03:17:34] robbins876: huge and 7200rpm
[03:17:40] robbins876: 500gb

[03:20:18] clever: Nostahl: cant think of any others right now

[03:20:52] robbins876: the parent directory still exists, but the files within are gone

[03:23:03] Dagmar: Yeah... that's going to be a problem then.
[03:23:08] Dagmar: What filesystem are you using on that disk?
[03:23:12] robbins876: ext3
[03:23:47] Dagmar: Okay, so there are ext3 undelete tools, but their success ratios are ***HIGHLY*** dependent on whether or not you've written to the disk since the deletion.
[03:24:16] Dagmar: It's worth a shot installing one and trying it, PROVIDED you don't mount that disk read-write again until you're told to by the tools.
[03:24:16] robbins876: i dont' know when the ifles were deleted, because i was watching some last night after i had put stuff on the disk
[03:24:17] robbins876: i think
[03:24:32] Dagmar: Reading the disk shouldn't incur much of anything except atime mods, which are /usually/ okay.
[03:25:01] Dagmar: If you did something like _try to compile the ext3 undeletion tools_ on there (which is the corner most people paint themselves into) they'd just be gone
[03:25:11] Dagmar: You *might* be able to recover them ata this point tho
[03:25:21] Dagmar: Allow me to suggest soemthing to you tho, because this is what I do.
[03:25:50] Dagmar: Anything you want to keep "forever" you go ahead and bundle into ISO images, and then burn them to DVD.
[03:25:57] Dagmar: Keep the ISO images around, mount them over loopback.
[03:26:00] robbins876: so many gigabytes!
[03:26:27] clever: i was burning data to dvd's and deleting just to get the space
[03:26:36] clever: and a few of the disks have started to grow bad sectors
[03:26:36] Dagmar: Even if you don't back up the stuff onto DVD, it's not possible to accidentally delete a file from inside an ISO9660 image...
[03:26:53] Dagmar: ...and you can't actually delete the file once it's mounted over the loop interface.
[03:27:12] clever: could just chmod -w the directory:P
[03:27:16] Dagmar: FAIL
[03:27:17] Dagmar: No.
[03:27:23] Dagmar: That won't stop shit.
[03:27:33] Dagmar: Don't listen to clever.
[03:27:38] clever: depends on whats doing the deleting
[03:27:50] robbins876: what's this undelete app called?
[03:28:02] Dagmar: Well, there's "CAN'T BE DELETED FROM" and there's "depends"
[03:28:12] Dagmar: Which do you THINK is the one that has the "100% not deletable from" sticker on it?
[03:28:16] clever: and the iso file can still be deleted:P

[03:29:02] Dagmar: clever: What part of "can't be deleted once mounted" is confusing you?
[03:29:04] clever: you could also have lvm with a seperate LV for every season, and just remount the ext3 read only
[03:29:24] clever: Dagmar: yeah after you mount it the iso image is protected but before then or during bootup or crash
[03:29:27] Dagmar: ouch. Something i'd forgotten about ext3 here...
[03:29:37] Dagmar: It zeros the stuff in the directory tree
[03:29:49] Dagmar: You might be able to recover the linked fragments still tho
[03:29:50] Dagmar: http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html
[03:30:11] Dagmar: clever: In which case you lose the entire thing or you lose none of it.
[03:30:13] robbins876: fsck did nothing
[03:30:15] clever: ext3 feels better for undelete then fat32 if you look at how the data sectors are pointed at
[03:30:22] Dagmar: fsck isn't going to do anything about accidental deletions.
[03:30:38] Dagmar: If anything tried to keep those files around, they'll be in the lost+found directory at the root of the filesystem.
[03:30:59] Dagmar: otherwise, unmoount that disk or just mount it read-write until you've taken a shot at undeleting
[03:31:16] clever: sounds like a good plan
[03:31:27] Dagmar: *Every* *write* *to* *that* *filesystem* further decreases the chances you'll recover anything.
[03:31:31] Nostahl: what part of the file system does mythtv save music too

[10:10:15] lrtop: I have a weird problem. mythfrontend sometime crashes when I use live tv ( watch tv option) I tried using '-v all ' several time and there is no consistency . the backend continue to work but always gives the error 'finished recording X'
[10:10:38] justinh: that's not an error message
[10:11:12] lrtop: ofcourse it isn;t
[10:11:29] justinh: to you there is no consistency in the mythfrontend log, but maybe you're missing something ;)
[10:11:30] lrtop: my bad
[10:11:50] lrtop: yeah
[10:11:54] waxhead_: has anyone got any solutions to extend a backend?
[10:12:04] lrtop: I'll post several of them
[10:12:25] waxhead_: it's looking like I'll have a backend, and i'll have to "distribute" to more than one TV..
[10:13:06] justinh: into a paste website, not into the channel please
[10:13:29] directhex: extend it by adding more tuners. or more backends.
[10:14:20] justinh: or eat more cake, that's good for making a back end bigger apparently

[10:23:41] justinh: assuming the tv's top is wide enough, just perch it up there ;)
[10:23:58] fatmatt: hey gang
[10:24:12] justinh: but if it's like a slim flat panel you might have to jerry rig a stand of some kind to put the frontend on the tv
[10:24:23] directhex: the general advice given is the mac mini is about the best frontend you can get. the general advice given is also that teh mac si teh suxxxx!
[10:24:38] waxhead_: what sort of hareware is needed at the most minimum for a front end though?
[10:24:50] justinh: what sort of car do I need to drive to London?
[10:24:55] directhex: for SD? >1ghz p3. for hd? >2ghz multi-core
[10:25:09] directhex: justinh, a tank would be good
[10:25:16] justinh: notice I haven't told you any of the requirements like comfort, economy or how long I want it to take!
[10:25:22] waxhead_: yeah, I know it's a silly "how longs is a piece of string" question...
[10:25:50] justinh: you need a CPU, some RAM, maybe a HDD but definitely as case & PSU
[10:26:04] waxhead_: but I was wondering if there's a "general" mimimum" limit...
[10:26:19] waxhead_: I was wondering if the mini atx is sort of thing is an option....
[10:26:37] justinh: there is. 128MB RAM is the minimum ram requirement for a frontend (realistically) and a REAL (i.e. not Via) CPU
[10:26:43] justinh: that's just for SDTV
[10:27:21] fatmatt: anyone got tv tips for me, I upgraded my ubuntu mythtv box, in the process I messed up the settings for the tv out, got an nvidia geforce 6200, can't get the prop nvidia drivers to work so I'm using the kernel nv one, picture doesn't fill the screen
[10:27:40] justinh: for HDTV, like directhex says, think bigger. like > 1GB RAM, for mpeg2 HDTV, > 1.5Ghz. For 'h.264' HD playback, think multicore > 2Ghz
[10:27:59] justinh: fatmatt: you need the binary drivers for tvout to work properly
[10:28:18] justinh: or to put it another way, the tvout won't work properly without the nvidia binary drivers
[10:28:28] directhex: or video playback
[10:28:36] waxhead_: thanks justinh, directhex
[10:28:39] justinh: or 3d
[10:28:41] fatmatt: justinh, yeah, thought it was something like that.
[10:28:59] waxhead_: what's the benefit of a decent video card then?
[10:29:15] waxhead_: could i go cheap on a gfx card?
[10:29:18] justinh: video playback working well in linux – that's the biggest benefit
[10:29:27] waxhead_: I got a 8600 in the main box....
[10:29:32] justinh: waxhead_: cheap as in 'just a nvidia card' ? yes
[10:29:45] fatmatt: got any tips re modes or xorg.conf? I can get nvidia to compile/setup but I get x errors
[10:29:53] justinh: no need to splurge on some gazillion megatexel-load-of-bullshit $4000 card
[10:29:56] directhex: running nvidia-setup will kill ubuntu
[10:30:04] directhex: this is your tip for the day. feel free to ignore it. most people do
[10:30:05] waxhead_: but like I said I need to extend the main box now... due to a house change... at the moment the one box is hooked up to everything...
[10:30:42] justinh: waxhead_: you've been answered. stop procrastinating
[10:30:45] ** fatmatt has killed ubuntu a few times, thus the visit here **
[10:30:56] waxhead_: yes yes...
[10:30:59] directhex: step 1, stop fucking with things and editing config files
[10:31:06] directhex: step 2, just click the icon to enable nvidia drivers
[10:31:15] waxhead_: so I'm going to have to build more boxes...
[10:31:30] directhex: system, administration, hardware drivers
[10:31:47] justinh: yes. if you labour under the illusion you can serve multiple televisions with just one machine, think again!
[10:32:09] waxhead_: my mythbunthu box is solid as... after I got the remote working I've been really happy with it... so many hours of tv to watch!
[10:33:02] waxhead_: justinh: I should be able to "server" multiple front ends though no?
[10:33:03] directhex: justinh, well, TECHNICALLY...
[10:33:10] directhex: waxhead_, that's the idea
[10:33:10] fatmatt: I don't have a keyboard or a mouse on that box, it's plugged into the tv, ratpoison is the wm of choice. ANy changes I make are generally via ssh
[10:33:20] directhex: fatmatt, lovely.
[10:33:58] fatmatt: been that way for about 6 years now. ONly when distributons stop being supported and I notice that I have to mess with it
[10:34:00] waxhead_: ermm.. that's serve.. not server...

[10:35:39] directhex: fatmatt, nvidia-glx-new package. make sure xorg.conf is set to use "nvidia". every single line in xorg.conf is potentially broken, remove any fancy lines you copy-pasted from the internet, go for the simplest config you can
[10:35:59] justinh: select mplexid from channel where name="channelname";

[10:38:25] Freman: wow, it's using the wrong one...
[10:38:37] justinh: that'll be a user error then
[10:38:54] justinh: either that or the channel has moved. sounds like a rescan is in order
[10:39:14] Freman: channel has moved, I manually put in the new transport, and scanned on that transport, but it hasn't saved it
[10:39:19] justinh: why digital channels have to be shuffled around so often is totally beyond me
[10:39:32] Freman: you and me both
[10:39:35] justinh: so, delete all channels.. rescan. pain in the arse. blame the provider
[10:40:51] Freman: can't just change the id manually? :)
[10:41:23] justinh: you could, but I wouldn't advise it
[10:42:15] justinh: if you know what you're doing, go ahead but bear in mind that the tranport isn't the only thing that could have changed (think serviceid too)
[10:42:58] justinh: personally I'd be a hypocrite & mangle the mysql myself despite always imploring users to do the opposite ;)
[10:43:17] Freman: I concur :)
[10:43:45] ** Freman goes to look at service id **
[10:44:27] Freman: how come myth doesn't update my existing channel 9's? or is that a comming attraction? :)
[10:45:01] justinh: it can't
[10:45:22] justinh: because surprisingly it expects things to stay the same
[10:45:29] Freman: hehe
[10:45:43] justinh: it can account for some changes, like dynamic PID allocation though
[10:46:42] justinh: in theory, it could spot that changes have taken place & update itself – but all that assumes the broadcasters tow the line
[10:46:47] Freman: it looks like just deleting the channel 9's and scanning that frequency fixed it
[10:47:05] Freman: this is australia... we can't even get them to run within 20 minutes of on time
[10:47:52] justinh: take it easy man, have another tinnie

[10:48:07] Freman: that didn't work
[10:48:14] ** Freman goes and deletes the rogue frequency **
[10:49:42] Freman: hey justinh, my transports – the one I added doesn't have netid, or tid..
[10:49:45] Freman: is that ok?
[10:49:56] waxhead_: ha.... tv in australia is terrible for timing...
[10:50:00] justinh: no it needs those
[10:50:06] waxhead_: you need 4 tuners to get around it...
[10:50:13] Freman: hmmm where does it get that from?
[10:50:16] justinh: netid will be the same for all channels AFAIK
[10:50:23] Freman: nope :)
[10:50:28] justinh: or at least for all multiplexes
[10:50:30] Freman: I have netid 4112 and 12802
[10:50:57] justinh: I can see you deleting all your channels & doing a full rescan
[10:51:14] Freman: eaugh... my poor programming guide :(
[10:51:38] waxhead_: Freman: are you using shepherd?
[10:52:03] Freman: yeh
[10:52:11] Freman: can I delete the transports also/
[10:52:37] Freman: or rather, should I delete the transports also? :)
[10:53:12] justinh: did you delete any transports before?
[10:53:16] Freman: nope
[10:54:10] justinh: so all you've done is update the channel row with the new serviceid & mplexid ?
[10:54:22] Freman: no, deleted all my channels
[10:54:22] justinh: or was it on a new frequency altogether?
[10:54:36] Freman: it was a completely new frequency all together
[10:54:47] Freman: original was like 75 something new one is 16something
[10:54:49] justinh: do a full scan then
[10:55:05] Freman: it found 9 twice :(
[10:56:00] Freman: it's still on the wrong frequency
[10:56:06] Freman: 746500000
[10:57:49] Freman: 191625000
[10:57:55] justinh: sounds like timing isn't their only problem
[10:57:56] Freman: now it's on the right one/me waits for it to finish scanning
[10:58:37] ** Freman headdesks **
[10:58:53] Freman: it find it on the right frequency, then it finds it on the second frequency and overwrites the right frequency
[10:59:12] justinh: should be easy to put right
[10:59:49] justinh: looks like db mangling is the only way forward for you though :P
[11:00:16] Freman: then it forgets the right freuqncy
[11:00:25] Freman: there's no 191625000 in the db
[11:01:09] Freman: how can I force it to use channels.conf?

[11:31:27] mzb_d800: <12 ;)
[11:32:59] justinh: wow. way less than us, but then there aren't many channels here with stuff on worth watching. there are about 4 shopping channels, 4 'music' channels, 'interactive' services counted as channels...
[11:33:00] Freman: 4
[11:33:04] Freman: not including the hd versions
[11:33:16] Freman: or the copies
[11:33:22] Freman: wait
[11:33:23] Freman: no 9
[11:33:25] Freman: err 5
[11:33:57] Freman: ABC, SBS, Nine, Seven, Ten – then you have the offshoots and clones ABC2, SBS2, SBS-News
[11:34:02] Freman: anything else is jut a streight copy
[11:34:54] justinh: we have too many +1 channels too
[11:35:24] mzb_d800: abc1 != abc2, sbs != sbs news, and seven have an offshoot (which isn't always the same)
[11:35:47] mzb_d800: so 8 + HD
[11:35:53] mzb_d800: iirc
[11:36:04] justinh: how many analogue channels did you have?
[11:36:13] mzb_d800: less ;)
[11:36:31] justinh: I'm old enough to remember when we only had 3 in the UK
[11:36:53] mzb_d800: I remember 2 ... made life simpler ;)
[11:37:14] mzb_d800: still got into trouble changing from #2 though ;)

[11:39:47] justinh: no, I don't know what BET TV UK is either
[11:39:54] directhex: oh dear
[11:40:19] Freman: I know this is a bit beyond the scope of this chan... but can anyone see why xorg is trying to force my poor projector to display 1600x1200 based on this config: http://paste-bin.com/13601 – that config used to work until I updated my video driver tonight...
[11:40:37] justinh: ah apparently it's "Black Entertainment Television UK"
[11:41:14] directhex: Freman, what an overcomplex xorg.conf.

[14:16:50] gbee: I'm not saying that anyone should chose ATi over Nvidia or Intel, but that they shouldn't be so quick to dismiss them either

[14:18:50] laga: gbee: well, you're referring to the binary only driver. free driver is a different story probably
[14:18:55] kdubya: if i turn on the nvidia driver it takes a full second to redraw xchat

[14:20:21] kdubya: i should probably be at work
[14:20:23] laga: true, but ubuntu puts more effort in having worker binary drivers and they don't ship as much bleeding edge stuff as fedora.
[14:20:42] kdubya: yeah
[14:21:05] gbee: and I'm not talking about 3D performance, but only those things relevant to MythTV 2D/opengl Xvideo
[14:21:25] directhex: laga, i note you're staying out of discussions involving wget -> sources.list.d in #ubuntu-motu

[16:35:27] teprrr: there's "MythTube" plugin marketed on -users list somewhere in 2006.. it consisted some php script and so.
[16:36:35] iamlindoro_: This plugin more or less copies some code from MythNews and uses that, adds an interface, and works fairly well. It will now allow for other sites to be added via external perl scripts, but as of now only YouTube is implemented
[16:37:01] iamlindoro_: It's simple, which I quite like, and doesn't add senseless options for no particular reason. Search, result, click to play.
[16:37:46] iamlindoro_: Also downloads the High quality h.264 versions when available (my own little contribution ;) )

[18:21:54] Dagmar: Why does it matter that much?
[18:22:12] Dagmar: Either you HAVE this board, in which case you can't miss a jumper header, or you *don't* in which case it doesn't much matter.
[18:22:52] justinh: it's pretty much in the middle of the board, not far away from the connector block (audio, LAN etc) and to the left of the light coloured 4-pin power connector. sheesh
[18:23:30] justinh: all it is, is a 6-pin 0.1" DIL header. if you've ever seen a motherboard before it should be familiar to you
[18:23:54] Dagmar: If you can't find it with the motherboard in front of you, you should put the thing back into the box before you break it
[18:24:10] justinh: either your board has one or it doesn't – and even if it does, there's no guarantee it's for the same thing

[20:30:27] gbee: I'm guessing that for the amount of use it would actually get then no, it's not worth it, as iamlindoro_ says use an existing machine and NAT

[20:49:07] dustybin: iamlindoro_: im sure you could run a frontend on a 65watt PSU?
[20:49:09] sid3windr: my new workstation also uses 25 watts less than the previous one
[20:49:09] Dibblah: Xeons are hot and hungry.

[20:49:22] sid3windr: hehe
[20:49:26] laga: sid3windr: i wonder how much it cost to produce that c2d. compared to the energy you're going to save
[20:49:38] sid3windr: the c2d was already produced anyway
[20:49:48] sid3windr: otherwise it'd just end up on ebay for 2 years :p
[20:49:53] Dibblah: laga: In the UK, current energy prices (which are about to go up) are £1 / watt year.
[20:50:07] Dibblah: So save 1 watt, you save one pound per year.
[20:50:14] laga: yeah, but how much energy does it cost to produce that CPU?
[20:50:19] laga: sorry, i didn't make that clear
[20:50:32] Dibblah: Who cares about embedded energy?
[20:50:35] sid3windr: I hope less than the price I paid for it
[20:50:41] sid3windr: or intel will have some trouble soon
[20:50:42] sid3windr: ;)
[20:50:46] Dibblah: It's a null concept when it's a second hand item.
[20:51:18] iamlindoro_: That's like suggesting we all use incandescent bulbs since all the lamps are already out there
[20:51:37] laga: it's somehwat naive to believe that intel hadn't produced that CPU if he hadn't bought it. but it works if more people do it :)
[20:53:21] Dibblah: Realistically, I don't care about the embedded energy. It's reflected (indirectly and scaled) in the purchase price.
[20:53:34] Dibblah: embodied. Doh.
[20:54:04] sid3windr: of course I will be selling the xeons and someone else will power them up
[20:54:16] sid3windr: so it's not really helping
[20:55:24] Dibblah: Shoulda sold earlier. Xeons plummetted in price a year or so ago.
[20:55:28] Dibblah: Second hand.

[22:59:19] imat007:  I am running Ubuntu 8.04 and I compiled mythtv v21 from source, it works except, I have to manually start backend. I have 2 users, mythtv and my main login. I am unable to log in to mysql when I use mythtv user, but if I switch to my main login I can do so. Does any one know if I might have missed some permission to grant to user mythtv?

[23:01:06] imat007: mythbackend is unable to login to the mythtv database unless I am logged in as the main user. If I login as mythtv it fails.
[23:02:50] sphery: imat007: you have different DB config info in ~/.mythtv
[23:03:16] sphery: specifically, config.xml should be in both users ~/.mythtv

[23:03:40] sphery: however, you may also have some mysql.txt files scattered around the system by your distro or whatever that are breaking things, too
[23:07:13] imat007: what about permissions for mythtv as in does it need to belong to a certain group etc ..
[23:08:05] imat007: should config.xml and mysql.txt files (once I find them) need to be exactly the same?
