Installation issues / TV card Install - Hauppauge 4000

« on: August 07, 2009, 08:14:09 pm »

I have installed a Hauppauge HVR-4000 card into my core (hybrid). I have installed the Hauppauge card firmware and driver. It is using v4l2. To remove any LinuxMCE issues I installed Kubuntu 8.10 without MCE and have had the card working with Kaffeine. I have now re-installed MCE/hybrid (8.10) but during the setup video, the card is not listed as an available device. Should it be? I have checked dmesg output and everything looks ok. I have selected VDR (best for dvb?) which shows a big NO SIGNAL message which I assume is because it isn't aware of the Hauppauge card? Any ideas on what I should try next?

During boot of my hybrid system, I get an error form informing me that a device did not start correctly. Where do I look to get detailed information for the error?

Thanks,

Users / Orbiter menus missing

« on: July 26, 2009, 08:55:46 pm »

I am running a hybrid core - 8.10. I am finding quite often that after I take the Orbiter menu option to the KDE desktop, I can't get get back the the Orbiter menus. The OrbiterGL / PhotogalleryVie and pluto-xone-playback menu items  appear in the task bar. When clicking the OrbiterGL item, the current window loses focus but the menus do not appear? I have tried the menu button on the Gyration controller but that has no effect either.

Installation issues / Sangoma VOIP card install / Asterisk

« on: July 24, 2009, 09:08:19 pm »

Newbie question:

I am installing a Sangoma B600 card into my core (8.10) as the basis for my Asterisk setup.

During install of the Sangoma driver (Wanpipes), I am asked the question:

Please select the working zaptel directory

I have searched for zaptel.conf and dahdi.conf files as I assumed if I found those, that would be the directory to enter but I can't find either. Asterisk is ticked in the Admin site so I assume that Asterisk and support libraries have been installed. How do I locate the required directory?

Thanks,
