Installation issues / Installation issues - no glx module (UnSolved)

« on: November 15, 2009, 09:11:10 pm »

I have tried reinstalling with the beta DVD and also the internet installation at least 10 times and still am not able to get this thing working. My xorg log says that there is no GLX module installed. How is this possible? Doesn't the nvidia 190 drivers include this? Is there a way to check which nvidia driver is loaded? How can I unload and reload? Thanks

Users / Ceton cableCARD tuner

« on: September 11, 2009, 06:01:48 pm »

Did anyone see engadget yesterday talk about the CETON cableCARD tuner? 4 HD tuners on one mini-PCI. I went to there site and couldn't find any ino on whether they had a llinux driver or not. It seems that they have them for other devices using the same chip set. This would be a great way to bring live tv into linuxMCE.

Installation issues / 8.10 - Bluetooth - Java MO

« on: September 04, 2009, 03:42:56 pm »

Does anyone have bluetooth and Java Mo working in 8.10. I'm trying to update the code for the new Nokia phones with touchscreen. My bluetooth dongle noticed the phone during setup but when I run the JavaMo it doesn't connect. It did just fine in 7.10. Am I missing a step? Is there something manual I have to do in 8.10?

Developers / Java Mo and symbian code location.

« on: June 30, 2009, 02:48:22 pm »

Could someone give me a link to the JavaMO code and the symbian orbiter code. Also is there a way to test and orbiter without having a core present. IE an emulator of some sort. I'd like to try and add touch screen functionality to one of these so that the newer nokia touchscreen phones can be used as remotes.

Thanks,
Kevin

Users / Java MO on a Nokia 5800 music xpress

« on: May 07, 2009, 04:03:55 pm »

I have loaded the java Mo on my new Nokia 5800 music xpress but get a small screen and a virtual joystick and A,B,C,D buttons. This has a touchscreen with 360x640 resolution. Is it possible to get just the UI1 and use the touchscreen for control. I have tried all different settings in the web admin. Also I notice a field named rotation in the web admin. Would this allow me to rotate so the actual screen is 640x360? if so what are accepted values for this field.

Thanks

Users / Problems with diskless MD -Resolved

« on: April 23, 2009, 02:39:08 am »

I'm building a new diskless MD which didn't have a video card with tv out. If I hook this up to a pc monitor it will boot up and get me to the video/audio setup screen. If I put an NVidia 8400 card in the machine it starts the pxeboot process and crashes half way thru at anywhere from the 56.xxxxxx to 63.xxxxxxx steps. I have the same card working for my core just fine with the new NVidia drivers.

Do I have to copy these to the /usr/pluto/diskless/214 directory? if so what files do I need?

Thx

What are the chances of integrating the Dish VIP 922 into LinuxMCE or at least using it for liveTV and DVR instead of MythTV?

Users / File Server Not recognized

« on: December 23, 2008, 03:29:43 pm »

I have an old LACIE 1 terabyte fileserver that had an old version of windows on it without a license. I installed ubuntu 8.04 on it and setup directories for sharing. I then connected it to the network and copied files from my hybrid to the shares. I then deleted the files from my hybrid. I have 2 problems.

No 1. I thought LMCE would automagically recognize the new drives and ask me if I would like to connect. Which is not happening.
No 2. After I have resynced my media in the web admin I still have pointers to the old media and when I try to play the media I get file not found, which is understandable. Why haven't these pointers been cleared?

Thanks for any help or ideas!

Users / video problems

« on: November 15, 2008, 06:49:06 pm »

On one of my media directors I no longer have a tv button and I can't watch videos. I get a message that device isn't capable. If I go to the setup wizard the lady doesn't even show up anymore. I think I may have messed up something in the admin but have no clue what. Any ideas would be helpful.

Installation issues / Audio and Video Problems

« on: September 08, 2008, 04:51:45 pm »

I am having some problems with my system and could use some help.

Audio - When I run the AV wizard I set sound to SPDIF and hear sound working for everything (Stereo, Dolby and DTS). But when I the system comes up I only have sound coming from the line out of my audio card and nothing from the SPDIF. How come it works fine in AV_Wizard and not when LinuxMCE is running?

Video - I changed around my xorg.conf so I could get the best resolution for my 42 in LCD through the DVI output on an NVidia 8500. I am using the latest Nvidia drivers. Here is the wierd thing. I have great resolution for the linuxmce orbiter control panel but no video as far as slide show or from DVDs. Now if I go to KDE Desktop and run the UI Diagnostics tool from the launch manager the go back to the orbiter I have excellent video from slideshow and DVD. As soon as I shutdown the diagnostic tool I lose video.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
