Installation issues / Re: DHCP ISSUES

« on: April 10, 2008, 05:03:58 am »

O.k can I add media sources manually, or have it hand out ip addresses only to certain MAC addresses and if so how?
Could I set up a some kinda scope like 192.168.2.111-116 and blacklist MACs on the Windows 2003 DHCP
I don't know how to configure DHCP on a linux box.
If someone can explain a bit on how to configure DHCP on LinuxMCE after a install, I might just be able pull some kinda trick out my a**.
One more thing, if someone can't help me here please point me in the right direction.

I'll also do a bit of googeling in the meantime.

Thanks,

Installation issues / DHCP ISSUES

« on: April 09, 2008, 07:03:06 am »

O.k. this is basically how it goes. I already have a DHCP server on my network and it cannot be shut down. For some reason when I install LinuxMCE I choose to turn the DHCP off and give it 192.168.80 as it's scope yet it still persist to hand them out screwing up the whole network. I want LinuxMCE to still find media sources and allow orbiters to work on other computers. Is there a way I can use my existing DHCP server to do this? Any help is appreciated.

Installation issues / Re: Orbiter won't activate

O.k. I think I got the answer to this one if you are running ATI graphics that is. (MIGHT WORK FOR NVIDIA CARDS)

1. Install Kubuntu 7.04-7.10

2. If you have any video drivers enabled by "RESTRICTED DRIVERS MANAGER" disable them

3. Download Envy and Install

4. Use Envy to install ATI drivers and reboot

5. Install LinuxMCE 7.04-7.10

6. After install restart your computer and run LMCE and hopefully orbiter will start for you.

Orbiter would not start on my computer because of an outdated driver provided through ubuntu repositories.

Note: My ATI card is an integrated Readon X1250
