Developers / Re: O2 Joggler As full MD - Testing needed

« on: April 13, 2014, 04:08:19 pm »

Use the scripts from the Bootscripts package.  /etc/init.d/linuxmce controls lmce startup, and LMCE_Launch_Manager is passed that control.  Start at an existing MD and have a look at /etc/init.d/linuxmce, the entire boot process (mostly) is spawned from there.

AG pastebin the config file when you get things fixed up and we can add it easily.  Attach it to a ticket as a feature_patch.

Been a couple of weeks, but we are using libxine2, not libxine1.  That could be part of the issue.  I believe that fonts are all stored internationalized somewhere now.  But I have no idea where.

Fyi, I am the one that closed the tiket.  If you have any issues please feel free to discuss them with me.  Subtitles play for me in Xine too.  I wish I could turn them off.

orbiter and xine will need xfwm4 as a window manager running to play nicely together.    Cool stuff btw!

We do not have mythtv 0.26 in LinuxMCE.  The latest version is 0.25.

Cannot say I'm going to be much help here, but can you run 'ps ax | grep autofs' and pastebin the results?  If there are no results then autofs isn't mounted.  If you do have a result then I'm out of ideas.

Hi Govo!  I have not tried this myself, as I do not have a private flickr account, but this sounds like wonderful functionality to have in the main system.   If you'd like to have it included in LinuxMCE by default, and are willing to do a little additional work to make that happen, I would be willing to help you make that happen.  Feel free to ping me on #linuxmce-devel.

I think we may have lost some forum attachments during a recent forum upgrade.  We are looking into these issues but there is no time frame.

I am not quite sure if I am ready to take ownership over the MythTV integration yet, but willing to help out any way that I can.

Hey there ata-lmce!  I am, currently, one of the primary devs on the project.  I try to work with people regularly as they are prepping new features or bug fixes.  If you need any assistance let us know.  I'd be happy to help you to get things added/updated/fixed from this end.  So even if you do not wish to take ownership we would still welcome any contributions you can provide, especially MythTV related.

Installation issues / Re: Release notes?

« on: March 09, 2014, 10:32:16 pm »

I'm sorry, but during testing I've chewed up my download cap way to often.

I recommend using zsync with the snapshot.  I can usually sync a snapshot with ~800Mb worth of download.

Another question, did the mysql-ruby dependencies ever get added to the device template?  Then the required packages would install automatically when the device template is added.

Developers / Re: 1204 install broke my internet connection

« on: March 05, 2014, 12:40:14 am »

you're welcome. but more importantly: thank you for making them ;-)

It's what I do in the spare time I do have.

out of my league. But I can make suggestions as I am doing. Up to you to decide if they are useful enough to be implemented ;-)I am not sure if it is possible but maybe it is nice if that could be mentioned when it displays the page were it mentions no internet connection. People might wonder if something is wrong. Maybe the

If I knew how to fix that I'd do so in a heartbeat.  I know very little about ubiquity and have not had a chance to look into it.  I'm happy to accept patches    heh.

installer can give a choice asking which interface should be used for local and which for internet access?I used

You can certainly file a feature request for this, however internet and networking is NOT enabled during the install.  After the first reboot the system will do dhcp requests on eth0 first and then eth1, whichever device responds will be assigned as the external device. 

When rebooting, since the usb stick was still in it booted the usb stick and got stuck even before getting to the kde installer. (which is strange anyway cause it had just installed from it). I unplugged the stick and rebooted and it continued booting to lmce.

The DVD installer will not by default go to the live boot or to the installer.  When the DVD is inserted into the drive you will be presented with a menu that times out to the default "Boot from first hard disk".  There are some nice onscreen messages that are missing during the install, I'm working on getting them functional again.

http://trac.linuxmce.org/trac/ticket/1606

You can see my comments in the ticket.  Essentially resolv.conf is correct, 127.0.0.1 is intended to be there as bind9 provides dns services to the core and dhcp clients.  The bad data in the dhclient file we have no control over as that is the DHCP data that is provided by the ISP.  DHCP data for internal network clients is configured in the dhcp configuration files.

Developers / Re: 1204 install broke my internet connection

« on: March 04, 2014, 02:22:28 am »

Thank you for testing the 1204 alpha snapshots!

I think being able to control the interfaces a bit during installation is nice (swap&test). At least the installation broke my
internet and I was disconnected from the ISP and unable to recover so I got stuck without internet and thus life :-) (Linuxmce was probably sending offers over the internet which killed my internet connection). I suppose we need

We'll gladly accept patches to the ubiquity installer! 

During installation it said no internet (while that was plugged in since it is was the machine that was running lmce).

This is by design.  There is no networking during the DVD install.  The ubiquity screen is a remnant of the kubuntu installer and has no relevance during the lmce install.  The installer then arranges the interfaces the same way it did in 1004. 

Also there was no warning to remove the usb stick. (I did not remove it and then the reboot got stuck).

Please be more specific than 'got stuck'.  If you were using a current snapshot then it would automatically boot the first physical hard drive in the machine after rebooting.  But you didn't specify which snapshot you were installing from.

I also saw that the patch for 10.04 regarding the local host in the nameserver list is not implemented yet.

Please be more specific that 'the patch for 10.04'.  What patch are you referring to?

Installation issues / Re: NOISY screen after installation is finished New 12.04

« on: March 03, 2014, 01:57:58 am »

I have made many test these past days and I would like to share them all.

Thanks for testing!!!

1.  Problem with the NOISY screen is solved by changin the grub.cfg
set gfxmode=1024x768
After this i finally got some video output and was able to follow the AVWIZARD

2. After that, I am unable to get the MD's running.  The system gives me dhcp but It wont for booting usin PXE, I have no idea why.  I ran Diskless TBZ without no errors found and nothing!
If I go to webadmin and check network settings, it says
"No record in Device_DeviceData for Network Interfaces"
Any ideas?

From the command line, with root privileges, execute the following three commands:

Code: [Select]

mysql pluto_main -u root -e "delete from Device_DeviceData where FK_Device=1 and FK_DeviceData in (28,32,292)"
mysql pluto_main -u root -e "update Device_DeviceData set FK_Device=1 where FK_Device=0"
. /usr/pluto/dvd-installer.sh; SetupNetworking

This *should* be fixed in the new snapshot.

On one of my attempts, I found that appguard was giving me some headaches 
So since this is out of the scope of "NOISY SCREEN" I could call this post SOLVED and follow up with a new one of this issue.

Yes, if this continues to be an issue, open another topic, drop into #linuxmce on Freenode IRC or open a ticket in trac @ svn.linuxmce.org so we can have a dialogue about any issues you are having. 

Thanks again for testing!
