Users / Using Windows Oribter downloaded via Web Admin via WINE on linux

« on: November 18, 2008, 08:52:50 am »

Hi All,

Yesterday i was playing around with Wine on linux (http://winehq.com) and tried to install the windows orbiter, with many luck i managed to install it and use it on linux ( check attached screenshot )

If you want to try it you have to use the wine version from the site http://winehq.com , not the versions from the repo's .


Have fun,

After a couple of days running linuxMCE 0710 RC2 i get this message /etc/init.d/mysql: ERROR: The partition with /var/lib/mysql is too full!

The problem is, that i can't start mysql anymore, anyone any ideas?

Dave

Ps. I already checked with df -h if there was low diskspace on my 160 gb hdd and i don't have any space left but this happened in a few hours, and i can't see in which directory or file the size is in.

Users / Media Organisation

« on: August 18, 2008, 10:40:00 am »

Hi All,

I have my media ( video, music , pictures ) stored on a 1 TB raid 5 config, linuxMCE automatically found this device to be stores in /mnt/device/** but i do not get the message in one of my orbiters to use the linuxmce structure just like when u add an second hdd.

So what i did was put some lines in /etc/exports run a exportfs -a and mounted my media from /mnt/device/**/Video to /home/public/data/videos, this really works because the lack of autodetection of the raid array on /mnt/device/**

BUT my problem now is that my media is being messed up, for example, i have a video file --> movie.iso under /home/public/videos/M/movie.iso ( Structure under videos / audio  is Alfabetical ( 0 to 9 and A to Z ) then i go to the pluto-admin website to resynchronize my media to the database, i reload my router ( is this neccessary? ) i go to videos in my orbiter and don't see any movie.iso, but an title of one of the songs in my audio directory ( 400 GB of audio ) ( /home/public/data/audio )( also Alphabetical ordered 0 to 9 and A to Z )

Users / Raid 1 on Sillicon image 3132

« on: June 29, 2008, 11:33:08 am »

Hi there,

I'm trying to get my raid config to work. I have an Sillicon Image 3132 2 esata pmp ( port multiplier ) card that is connected to an 5 disk array, with 2 x 80 gb disks for the os ( Raid 1 ) and 3 x 500 gb disks for my data ( raid 5 ) this is what i trying to accomplish, for starters i believe that port multiplier is not supported by the recent kernel in lmce, it is supported in 8.04, i managed to install the latest hardy kernel on gutsy, don ask me why but this was only a test case, through this latest hardy kernel i was able to get DMRAID working but i had the dvd version installed ( i386 ) so i couldn't do anything about the os. Mu question is, can someone help out with setting this up or guide me, i read a lot, but it isn't clear for me to use DMRAID or SOFTWARE RAID and how to set it up.

linuxmce OS on 2 x 80 gb disks in RAID 1

DATA on 3x 500 gb disks in RAID 5

Can anybody help me out please.

Thanx a lot

Users / A couple off problems with i386 and AMD64 bit version and Reboot/Halt Poweroff

« on: March 24, 2008, 11:49:20 pm »

Hi all,

I'm trying to install the amd64 bit version on a Hyperthreading machine from HP a Dc7600 with a pvr-500 in it because i have a lot off problems with my hardware with the i386 version of a diffrent hp machine a d530 sff with a pvr-500 in it. The problem is now that the installation went fine but when i went through the whole installation and setup and when i was fineshed i halted the machine the stranged thing was that the machine didn't halted but rebooted <--> that is one, ---> two is that when i put in my pvr-500 in a free pci slot, i turned on my machine and he booted into kubuntu splash screen for 1/3 the way a freezed. MMhh i thought lets try the other pci slot mmmh same problem, took the card out booted up and everything fine, before everybody is going to tell me that my card is broken, no that is not the problem a have two of these pvr-500, and with mythbuntu everything is running fine, ps i turned off I/O for APIC MODe also off in the bios, tried to upgrade the bios and downgraded into diffrent version but no luck and no diffrence. This same machine is running the amd64 and the i386 from mythbuntu very fine, what could the problem be and what is this with the poweroff/ halt reboot thing, this i already had on the i386 version cd and dvd and on diffrent hardware.

Users / mythbuntu versus linuxMCE

« on: March 11, 2008, 06:14:08 pm »

Hi there,

I'm using linuxMCE from version 1.0 till now 0710 Beta4 in a testcase with an HP d530 sff with 2 x pvr-500 with an 80GB sata 3gb/s disk in it, the same setup i used with mythbuntu and all other mythtv distro's, mythbuntu worked fine for me but the music thingy in mythtv i didn't really like because i have an collection of nearly 600 gb of music. So i my quest for looking for an alternative mediacenter went on. I stumpled againt another GREAT open source mediacenter with also the possibilty to control home automation devices --> ): LinuxMCE, this i began to install and what was it a big suprised i ran into mythtv again inside linuMCE, so my thought was with the knowledge and pain sometimes to install and get that one going on to get my hands dirty again on mythtv, tested some few things with the disless feature, wich i can really recommend " drbl / clonezilla " the one i use for many months now as my diskless feature for mythbuntu, the guys over there are maybe considering to implement that one into mythbuntu hardy hardon ( drbl / clonezilla ) so i went on and on, i'd also like to see some european xmltv providers that are not in the xmltv package, for instance i live in the Netherlands we have many cable providers here but the only good xmltv provider is " tv_grab_nl_py http://code.google.com/p/tvgrabnlpy/

Ok enough history lessons, the main thing is that i CANNOT watch tv properly with linuxMCE / mythtv with 1x , 2x pvr-500 cards from hauppage, but with an other pvr distro like mythbuntu where mythtv is the main application it really works great, can someone please help me out because i'm close to the edge to go back to mythbuntu, but i don't want that because i want to focus on linuxMCE and all of its features. PLEASE HELP PLEASE HELP, ok please help out a poor man from Holland !

( linuxMCE 0710 Beta4, HP d530 SFF 2.8, 4 memory gb, 1000 mbps nic ,  80gb sata 3 gb/s, 2x pvr-500 mce from Hauppage, and off course the gyro remote " The CHief "

Thnx in advance,
