My XFS storage drive and serial card appear in the message log, so I deleted them from MCE admin, then physically removed the drive and serial card. Now I'm getting this in var/log/messages.

Does the "DCErouter kernel" mean that this is a LinuxMCE fault, or should I suspect hardware issues?

Users / Serial Port Woes

« on: October 13, 2011, 08:04:18 pm »

I finally got my serial card sorted, so I'm trying to get some devices to work. I installed my Denon amp and a CM11A yesterday and all seemed fine. Last night I tried to play a movie and my Denon was not responding. I opened a terminal and typed "dmesg" to see if my serial ports were all being recognized. Seems there is a problem. Here is part of the output from var/log/messages. This repeats over and over. I deleted the CM11A device that was using the D1 port. I also reinstalled the driver. Somewhere during my messing about and rebooting, the Denon started to work, but I'm still getting all these references to ttyD1.

Installation issues / Re: [SOLVED] Getting 6 Port Serial Card To Work

« on: October 11, 2011, 05:09:16 pm »

I've got all six new ports up and running. See the tutorial if you'd like to try this card.

Installation issues / Re: New 1004 Installer Testing

« on: October 08, 2011, 06:50:47 pm »

I just finished the re-install of 1004 and things are working now.
- My BIOS was two versions old so I updated to the latest.
- I did not disable the onboard LAN - I wanted to see if the BIOS update fixed it (apparently it did).
- I had my 0810 core powered down during the install just as a precaution.

Just found this. After Kubuntu installs, I'll disable the onboard Realtek LAN and just use the Intel NIC.

http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Gigabyte_GA-73PVM-S2H

The Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2H is a neat little board that seems to have a good potential as an HTPC board.

        update as of 01/29/09 per Itsik "Gigabyte made a mistake and messed up the onboard lan. Each time you boot the pc, you get a differant mac address, which renders the on board lan useless. You can get boards from other companies with the same specs without the lan problems, so I wouldn't waste my time on that."

I'm reloading now with both nics installed. When I first installed, I plugged into the wireless router in order to stay off the internal network. I'll keep it this way, but power down my 0810 core to be safe.



Don't know if this makes a difference, but I installed a serial card driver (had to apt-get GCC) after installing Kubuntu, but before installing LMCE. I won't do that this time.

I installed with only the onboard Realtek LAN. When it didn't work, I tried the add-on Intel NIC.

810 works. If I can 1004 working I might switch over.

Maybe a stupid question, but I have a core running 810. This is a second test box for 1004, also running as a core - could this be a problem?

I tried the new 1004 installer with...

• Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2
• GeForce 7100 (onboard)
• Realtek LAN (onboard)
• Intel PRO network interface card

I had internet after Kubuntu installation, but LMCE installation broke it. I also cannot enter LMCE admin. Any ideas?
Otherwise the installation seemed to go smoothly - asterisk does not yet work as already noted. Can't really test the installation without the net. I also tried the 1004 installer on a Pentium 3 (1.4Ghz) system with no better luck.

I wasn't trying to accuse my new friends of slackness. I was just feeling kind of slack myself. I know all about life transitions - we moved to Denver, ripped down and rebuilt half the house, and I'm looking for a new job (unfortunately I can't say I have one now!)

Users / Re: Video Database Borked

« on: October 01, 2011, 04:42:09 pm »

Hot damn, that was it! I went to the devices tree and looked at the two disks showing up. One was the new media drive I had just purchased and installed, the other was the drive that held the core. I thought that was the way it was supposed to be. I deleted the device for core's hard drive, deleted the 3000 files in mediapics, then opened a terminal and reformed the video database as shown above. After restart things were back to normal. I also noticed that the hard drive I deleted was set to "public" instead of "use LMCE file structure". That always seems to cause trouble as well - don't really know why the public option even exists.
Until this point, I had been trying to fix this through media synch.

Thanks F1
