I upgraded his kernel to Natty.

sudo -i

Then dump the rest of this.
CurKernel="-generic"
if uname -r | grep "pae"; then CurKernel="-generic-pae"; fi
NewKernel="linux-image${CurKernel}-lts-backport-natty"
NewHeaders="linux-headers${CurKernel}-lts-backport-natty"
apt-get -yf install "$NewKernel"
apt-get -yf install "$NewHeaders"
apt-get update
apt-get -yf dist-upgrade
reboot

If your MD will not boot again, sudo chmod +r /tftpboot/XX/*    where XX is your moon number.

Something is breaking.
I need to see /etc/asound.conf
I need to see tail -4 /etc/pluto/xine.conf
I need to see sudo aplay -l

Yeah... we just said "You know what? This project is just too good... we should cripple it."

Lol... I keed I keed. There are a lot of issues with 64, but we are passively working on them, they are just sort of back burner. Feel free to dig in! There is plenty of code to go around

Indeed it works.
Thanks l3mce.
All is left is WMA playback.. wouldn't care if it weren't for the streaming radio stations...

Try sudo apt-get install w32codecs

I have changed stuff... try updating.

Is fixed.

Snaps LMCE-1004-20121206134026921.iso and further have the fix.

An apt-get update/upgrade will pull down the package which fixes it. All that should be necessary is a reboot. Getting closer to having a nifty little project released

Have you switched your audio to M (manual) in web admin?

Something is breaking preventing your sound from being configured otherwise. Please drop into IRC.

Pre-requisites...
You have an LMCE 10.04 install
You are completely updated or better yet, fresh install from latest snapshot
You have a tuner recognized by the system
You use myth tv
You have a schedules direct account


So, we are down to 6 or so defects (to move forward out of beta).

One of mine, is that SetupWizard no longer scans mythtv channels. For the longest time... I didn't even know this did that (7.10 days)... and always setup with the utility in computing... because it requires a non-intuitive (to me) step. I discovered sometime using 810 that after you enter your schedules direct info, and it brings up your region/zipcode, if you click that INSTEAD of "Next" it takes you to a set of screens which will scan channels for you. When I see a next button, which comes and goes, I click it when it appears. It makes perfect sense that you would "select" from the list of one before hitting next, or give the ability to click next if there was nothing in the list... it just took me a gazillion installs before it even occurred to me to click it.

My problem testing this, is that I have two tuners. One is a windows only tuner with experimental drivers which use a complicated process... which will not scan unless I can create a package and a device template, and an HDHR. The script was broken that scans HDHR... I fixed that. Now I need for people with other tuners that ARE detected by the system to see if they can scan channels from Setup Wizard using the above method. (setup wizard button can be found under Advanced/Advanced on orbiter)

Please post your result, and your capture device. Let's get this out of beta so we can get something else in

I would like to see your asound.conf.

HDMI audio has no volume control. It is digital. It is either on or off.

You shouldn't have to do anything at all with audio... but again, I would like to see that.

Where did you get the version you are using? The website?


I really need to be clearer that there are 3 possible audio configurations for every detected setup. We take our best guess based on the things we installed.
There is a parameter that is uses to do this. In /etc/pluto.conf
AlternateSC = 1  for instance. The long and short is it that sometimes our stuff needs to pipe to a card number and it automatically selects the appropriate device, and sometimes it requires that we specify the device.

In my experience things that want it one way, do not want it another way.

So the 3 configs write either to hw:<card#>   or plughw:<card#>,<device#>   or hw:<card#>,<device#>   plughw:<card#> is also avail

The way we USED to do it was hw:<card#>. So if nothing unusual is required to get sound going to begin with... that is what it sticks with (which would be AlternateSC = 0), if we guessed at this config, you will not HAVE the AlternateSC = 0 in pluto.conf... because it is the same as null (non existent).

Add or change the values of AlternateSC and see if it changes. Also make sure you are updated. This value can be edited during avwizard, while you are on the Sound card selection step 5 and then move forward. If you want to just test audio in the MD, you can just edit the value in pluto.conf and run /usr/pluto/bin/SetupAudioVideo.sh, then test. No reloading necessary.

Yes.

Hi... Firstly, I am terrible with card numbers. I only know them by pciid.

Then I could see what was supposed to happen, and why, and how to change it.

Keep in mind that there is a new parameter now in /etc/pluto.conf (if needed) AlternateSC. Set it to = 0 or 1 or 2 and see if you can get audio that way. They make these changes on the fly so what I do, at avwiz, is to back up to where I select an audio card, change the value in /etc/pluto.conf then go the audio part again, if I cant check it, press escape back to step5 and change the value again and choose the card again.

hmm... I need to figure out why the repo version of aticonfig is bombing so many chipsets.

For the time being, if you wanted to, transform lines 623-628 of Utils.sh to

Code:

*1002)
prop_driver="fglrx"
#if grep -Ei '((R.)([2-5])|(9|X|ES)(1|2?)([0-9])(5|0)0|Xpress)' <<< "$vga_info"; then
prop_driver="radeon"
#fi ;;
;;

Note the semi-colons at the end.
This will use the radeon driver so you can motor around and we can try that. What is going to happen is the routine is going to see that it is different and try and purge the fglrx stuff and reinstall some stuff and use the radeon driver until I can figure out what is buggering it.

Something is very wrong there.

How are you resyncing? I mean to ask how are you drilling to what you are trying to sync?
You might drop into IRC when she is sleeping and I will try and help you.

Sorry... late to the party... you should uh try that there noacpi kernel param...

What is this hardware btw? A laptop or something? I would go with latest snap btw.
