I recently upgraded my system and installed RC1. After the install it did not recognize my drive with all my media. Not sure what is going on  any clues any one?

yeah I am having the same problem right now. It works when you first install LMCE but when you do the xmodmap it doesn't keep the other settings. I want to pause, stop, FF, RW and I cant . Any Solutions for this yet?

I think I got everything pretty much working along with UI2(medium). Don't know exactly why but here is what I did if anyone is interested. I reinstalled LMCE again. Ran through the AVsetup. When it came to devices and media setup I created my user and choose the basics cause I don't have a lot of the other hardware(zwave, alarm, etc. ) When it came time to choose mythtv or vdr I choose vdr. I setup the rest of the other packages for media and then I reboot. When It came up the first time it worked fine. I disabled flickr from the admin page. Then ssh'd into the system to get rid of the flickr images that it downloads. Also made sure that there was nothing for Mythtv enabled. Everything is working so far I have copied a good amount of media to the core and it doesn't freeze when trying to view the list or play the media.

The reason I wanted to succeed with this system is because it is really small and can pretty much go anywhere. There are a lot of limitations on this system but I got it for free and had this in mind since I got it. Its a great system if you just want to use it as an M/D. Its a pain as a core cause of what you have to do. Thanks for the help.

Another Finding.... when I went through the setup (the Initial green screen setup) I chose UI2 (medium not alpha) when I finish setting up the core it actually does do transparency. Is there any way to disable transparency??

I apologize if my reply seemed rude or if I misunderstood. What I meant by my last post was that the video card should be fine I would think because it only fails during certain circumstances. In this case for some reason I am getting mysql errors and a bunch other errors. I just recently installed it and not sure why I would get all the erros. I do Agree about the drivers comment. Again the other error that I get is that the external drive disappears(or unmounts) and thats when it freezes. Should I put the drive in fstab? I noticed that LMCE creates a symbolic link in /home/public/....... but the mount point is /mnt/devices/. Also, I did at it to public and made sure it was used all the time. Thanks again for the help.

Getting these errors too. I also noticed that they drive disappears every once and a while. Again it is a usb drive. Its formatted as ext. It is not in fstab.

I'd like to accept that answer but the video card does support opengl and they system is above the system requirements. I am not using alpha blending. Again it only came down to some media for example right now I have 2 movies and if I delete one of them and reboot the core, I can see the movie in the list and play it no problems. Again I noticed that when I do ls -l in /mnt/device/33/movies all the content is root root not root public... could anyone tell me how to change this? Could it be what is causing it to do what it is doing. Everything else works fine. Im sure it could be something with LMCE itself it is beta

I have a Dell SX270 and installed beta 4 using UI2. It was a tough road there. I was told that this little guy  wouldn't support the UI2. In most cases it does but in some cases it doesn't. In the begining UI2 would lock up in a matter of seconds when it came up. I wasn't sure why. I read some posts about Flickr so I disabled it and still kept freezing I disabled MythTV from the admin page. UI2 was functional. I copied some movies on to a usb hard drive and the first 2 worked greate I could use the UI to get to the movies and play them. I copied one more movie and then went to the video option to play it and it locked up yet again. Here are the specs of the computer.

P4 2.8ht
2 gigs pc3200 ram
40 gig hard
Uses the Intel 865g video chipset.
On board video mem is set to max (8 MB)

Again everything works fine up until I try to watch a copied movie. The funny thing is if I use another orbiter (WM 2003 ppc) it will play the movie just fine. I can do pretty much everything with the PPC orbiter.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.
My thanks in advance.

Also noticed something too. When I ssh to my LMCE box and do an ls -l to look at the permissions it says " root root" not "root public" I read other forums and they mentioned that it should be "root public". I have a PocketPc(windows mobile 2003) and got it working as an orbiter. I can play the movies just fine if I use the orbiter but when I try to play them for the LMCE box it locks up at the video list. I noticed that on the admin sites there is section in Orbiters-Advance for Memory Management Can't find anything in the wiki that tells me anything about this.

UI2 locks up at times. I just copied over some movies and when I try to view them UI2 locks up. I looked at the logs and this is what I get:

It randomly does this so not sure what it could be. Any help would be appreciated.

Just wondering if any one has used the service port on the Vizio LCD tvs to connect from the tv to the core/md??.

I have a netgear wg111v2. It seems to work fine but I have to login to kde to get it to connect to my wireless network every time. I have it set to connect using wpa. I've installed the wpa_supplicant and the network manager.  After I reboot it does not connect when I get to the main LMCE screen. The device name is wlan0. When ever I add it to /etc/network/interfaces it doesn't let me connect at all. Is there any reason why it wont come up when the md boots?

what are your settings on that little guy?

Also have any of you hooked up a digital cable scientific atlanta hd box via the usb port or firewire port and got any signals or anything?

I have this little dell. Its a P4 2.8 with 2 gigs of ram and 20gig hd. It uses the 865g Intel GMA. It installs successfully and goes through the motions of setting up the mce. A few questions. is there any way that I can use the UI2 with out alpha blending, or is the vdo card too much of a POS? If I turn off DHCP and disable the router I cant get in to the admin page from any computer except the core. I can ping it and get replies but no admin page from anywhere else. I also use the gyration remote from Gyration and not the FIIRE remote, does the mod work pretty good? Any replies would be very helpful thanks everyone.
