Installation issues / "Fresh" installation 12.04 July 24 29195
« Last post by rebelkiller on July 30, 2014, 11:25:45 am »Hello!
Yesterday I did a fresh install of 12.04 snap 29195 (July 24):
- full DVD installation
- core/hybrid
- vdr
Observations:
- If there is no dhcp on the external lan then network configuration is not properly set by the installer. After first reboot you must wait a very long time to boot up. Fixed by setting external router to act as dhcp and complete reinstall, which is much faster than manually configure network settings. -> Asking the user during installation could make sense to avoid this.
- A/V Wizard comes up after second reboot (still no sound). At first reboot Sara comes up but with no video and no sound. Install wizard can be completed without seeing oder hearing her.
- VDR does not work from the start (I). Errors in VDR-log show connection refusals. Fixed by: streamdevhosts.conf/allowed_hosts.conf must be configured manually to 0.0.0.0.
=> version 1.7.22 is quite old -> is it possible to integrate more recent versions?
- VDR does not work from the start (II): /var/lib/video.00 does not exist -> created it manually + added "user=root" in /etc/default/vdr
- Installation is faster than 10.04; less minor problems during installation compared to 10.04. (e.g. setting screen resolution)
Next steps:
- Diskless MD creation (2x)
- ZWave setup
Best regards

Feature requests & roadmap / INSTEON Hub Item# 2242-222
« Last post by bwhitson on July 30, 2014, 06:06:54 am »Anyone have any experience with the Insteon Hub? Link @ bottom.
I haven't seen many posts about Insteon lately.
I'd like to purchase one of the starter kits but the all come with the hub instead of the USB/Serial plug in anymore.
http://www.smarthome.com/2242-222/INSTEON-Hub/p.aspx
Am I looking at this the hard way? Does everyone use Z-Wave?
Thanks,
B

« Last post by posde on July 30, 2014, 01:55:34 am »I need to correct myself, and voice an apology to the Pluto guys. They DO check the smb.conf.template file.
Which brings us back to the initial question: Please check if you can find the client lanman auth setting in your smb.conf.template file.
Thanks.

I'll amend Network_Setup.sh to add the lanman settings.
