Users / Re: Non standard resolution and Orbiter Skin

« on: September 11, 2007, 09:56:11 am »

dopey,

still the same problems

Then you change the resolution for the MD in the admin site. There is a field called Video Setting, that stores the resolution. Then you need to change the resolution for the On Screen Orbiter, which is in the advanced info for the Orbiter. Then do another reload router and full regen of the Orbiter.

I did all of that, but firstly, the field on the MD admin site is no drop-down box but a simple textbox. I entered the new value anyway, it says "1680x1050/60" now, at least I think so (I'm not home right now so I can't check). I changed the resolution for the Orbiter via drop-down box - no problem here. But after a full regen and reboot the output was still at 1280x1024, as well as the orbiter's resolution.
I also tried to run AV-Wizard but the new resolution does not show up.

Cheers
Chris

Hi,
this is interesting. I got an 22"-LCD a couple of days ago which also has a resolution of 1680x1050. I didn't get it to work in its native resolution yet. I tried to force the resolution by adding a modeline to xorg.conf but LMCE always changed it back to 1280x1024 or 1600x1200. My next step would be to change the startx-scripts not to mess with xorg.conf.
How did you get your screen to that specific resolution?

Cheers
Chris

stupid me... just need to ask the right questions. I found a corrupt graphics file for one of my rooms. After replacing it the orbiter generation worked flawlessly again. Never mind :/

Users / Orbiter generation gets stuck

« on: May 30, 2007, 10:35:10 pm »

Hi there,

during the last days I installed LinuxMCE stuff and somehow made it to the point where an MD boots from network. Today I changed some stuff (lights and prepared setup of mythtv) that caused the orbiters to regenerate. Now the orbiter wizard screen tells me for all orbiters "Regen status: Stage 2 of 2 - Rendering screen 97 of 259". The webpage keeps refreshing but the progress did not change for quite a long time (>1h). What's going wrong here? Any ideas?

BTW, the last entries of /var/log/pluto/orbitergen.log:

I don't understand the last error. Might that be a problem with the .png-files I uploaded for my room maps?

Cheers and thanks in advance

Feature requests & roadmap / Re: Ubuntu 7.04 & 64bit processor support

« on: May 21, 2007, 05:01:02 pm »

Hi folks,

sorry for bringing up that old topic, but does the new version 1.1 work on 64 bit-systems? Or do I have to change my system to 32 bit? I couldn't find any information on this...

Cheers
