Hi... yeah this is awkward... I was trolling the logs and found some wierd entries:

and also found these:
grep fluffybitch /etc/* -r
/etc/mailname:fluffybitch.org
/etc/postfix/main.cf.orig:myhostname = fluffybitch.org
/etc/postfix/main.cf.orig:mydestination = fluffybitch.org, localhost.org, , localhost
/etc/postfix/main.cf:myhostname = fluffybitch.org

Then googled and found this among many: http://pastebin.com/v168cg38

Something that I've noticed for awhile is when your setting up a new MD and it's installing the graphics driver (for example, Nvidia driver) it takes a few minutes to extract all the smaller files of the kernel headers. In the past when I've been in a hurry I'd chroot into the diskless MD's directory and do it from the DCERouter, where it takes a few seconds. Is there any reason why it's not included in the tar? I don't remember seeing it to a dist-upgrade and installing a newer kernel than the one in the tar.

Cheers

If your looking for a poor mans squeezeslave, these are what I have come up with:
WRT350Nv2 with USB sound card + amp: http://www.modlog.net/?p=202
Thin Client + second hand speakers: http://www.modlog.net/?p=219
Both boot in a few seconds and use very little power.

After doing a long over due reinstall, the name now sticks in the admin webpage

Something is triggering the gamepad install script.
In my case it was my logitech universal receiver.

Got this from another thread...

That explanes the second forced reboot, the console streams, "confirming <something>".... "Device installed" down the page until you reboot it, and at about 1 every 2-3 seconds, 400+ would be about right. After the second reboot they do stop and display driver, etc... starts

Yeah, the first 3 issues where upstream installer issues - installer failes when selecting a different HDD to install to.
Currently using this: http://linuxmce.wordpress.com/2007/10/03/hack-5-howto-modify-network-configuration/ backwards to fix my NIC, which is all good now, I just have about 400+ USB game pads that installed on the headless core, which has no game pad attached.

Just on 4th install, so far still stuck at networking issues - single network card, etc..

Uninstalled qOrbiter and ministro, deleted Linuxmce folder, and reinstalled from Market, the results are the same, just have to run DDMS to get log.

can I get a confirmation on this: "... the username for the qOrbiter in the Admin Website is set and as soon as I do a quick reload, it disappears, is this supposed to happen? "

Cheers

New log is here: http://www.modlog.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/log2.txt

Looks pretty much the same :-(

I too have a cheap-ass tablet running CyanogenMod 7, I've tried both software and GL versions and they both have failed, but I also noticed that going through the guide in the wiki, that the username for the qOrbiter in the Admin Website is set and as soon as I do a quick reload, it disappears, is this supposed to happen? The room name and other details remain.

The DDMS debugging log, config file contents and DCEROUTER.log for the latest release of the non-market version is here: http://www.modlog.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/log.txt
The tablet model is a Pendo Pad: TPC7SLV
It does create the Linuxmce folder when installed, and a default config, and if I change the number in it it does read it.
I have tried both horizontal and vertical modes, and turning off rotation

It loads the splash screen, displays the "Setting up Lmce" screen, if the orbiter number is correct, "go" goes red and it freezes and shutsdown. If the orbiter number is wrong it sudjests the correct device number which can slide up and down the screen, but when you click it "go" goes red and it freezes.

I have tried to set orbiter details in the web admin, run qOrbiterGenerator.php, quick reload, and then specified the username, but it still does the same.

From the DDMS log it looks like a code library related issue? libc.so vs libQtCore.so vs libqorbiter.so ? just a guess.
cheers hope this helps :-)

I like the idea of centralized audio, but wouldnt you get a fair bit of interfearance using speaker cables through out your house?

Hmm, this is causing me problems with a net install on 1004.  The AVWizard pops up after each and every reboot.  I complete it successfully and orbiter loads, etc, etc... on reboot the AVWizard returns every time.  This may be fixed by issues you mentioned earlier and the newer 20120321 build, I'll check it tonight.

Same here, I have run apt-get upgrade on the MD and the Core is already updated, I have attached the Utils.sh and 0start_avwizard as text files.

Chipset is:  VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
It detects it correctly as an intel driver in xorg.conf

Cheers

I have also tried:
DisplaySize     400 300

seems to make no difference, anyone got any ideas on forcing default aspect ratio for movie playback?

Although this not the best test bed, I'm using an N900 with Nitdroid, so far it works up until you press GO, some text scrolls under the connection settings and ends with "Couldnt Save Config!". I believe this might just be an issue with my setup. I tried changing DCEROUTER to an IP and I confirmed the correct Device ID.
Cheers.

Hi all, I've got an MD connected to a LCD TV with a standard VGA cable. I used to have issues with the aspect ratio while playing movies, but this was fixed by entering the display size in the xorg.conf, as mentioned before. After a recent dist-upgrade it has started again. The display size info is still in the xorg.conf and hasn't been overwritten.

The movie files always start out as 16:9 aspect ratio, and need to be manually changed to 4:3. The screen resolution is 1024 x 768, the UI is V2 Normal Horizontal 16:9. Xorg.conf:

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Monitor0"
        DisplaySize     697 392
        VendorName      "AWA"
        ModelName       "LTW32DS"
        Modeline        "1024x768" 60.80 1024 1056 1128 1272 768 768 770 796
#       HorizSync       20-500
        HorizSync       68.677
#       VertRefresh     59-61
        VertRefresh     84.997

Is there anywhere I can manually force the aspect ratio? Other than the update, the TV and MD are the same.

Cheers
