Installation issues / timouts

« on: October 09, 2007, 03:30:44 pm »

Hi all,
have been running 0704 with very few problems for the past few weeks...all of a sudden a very strange thing is happening.  the dcerouter seems to have cut itself off from the rest of the network...i can still access the internet on the kde desktop, but it will not find any other computer on the network, and no other computer on the network can see it.  orbitors can't connect, no admin website, no shares and no ping.  nothing on my network has change, nothing added etc.  everything is exactly the same as it was.  I checked all firewalls, cables, and all the thing you are supposed to check and everything seems fine.  does anyone have any ideas?
thanks

Installation issues / tv/capture card question

« on: October 07, 2007, 11:26:33 am »

hi all,
love the 0704 update.  I have a question for all you gurus out there.  i acquired an avertv usb2 plus external tv tuner/mpeg card that does not work AT ALL in linux, and according to the avermedia rep i spoke to, will never support linux.  i have the option to exchange it for an avertv hybrid +fm Volar that is also a tv tuner, and also a dvb tuner in one.  My question is, WILL IT WORK?  i have not found any specific info for this card and linuxmce.  there is a linux driver for it on their site, but before i drop the cash, i'd like to know for sure.  thanks

Installation issues / orbiter software download problem

« on: March 27, 2007, 05:21:36 pm »

hi all,
first off, let me say WOW...it's amazing to see how far the world of open source has come...now, on to the problem. 
when i try to download the software for any of the orbiters, i get 0 byte files that (obviously) don't open or install...does anybody know why this is?  i am using the latest (and greatest) version of linuxmce.  i tried orbiter for ppc (xscale) and windows xp - same problem for both.  any ideas?
thanks
