[mythtv-users] Re: yum difficulties FC4 mythtv i386

2005-12-06 Thread Tony O'Rourke
I believe it was just a matter of bad timing. When I was looking the
"stable" directory at atrpms did not exist. Now I look and the
directory is there with a date stamp of 06-Dec-2005 12:33. So I'll
chalk it up to bad timing and/or maintenance over at the repository.
In response to a previous suggestion, I had already made the necessary
change to yum.conf to find the correct domain http://dl.atrpms.net/
over at atrpms so that was not the issue. Now that the directory does
in fact exist I'll bet it will work when I go home and try it tonight.

I have added the atrpms as a repository. But I don't see the Fedora
Core 4 version of mythtv in the repository for i386. I see it for
i386_x64 FC4 and i386 FC3 but not i386 FC4.

Well let me modify that statement. The packages are there in this directory:

http://atrpms.net/dist/fc4/mythtv/

but I don't see how I can get yum to see it.

Here is the part of yum.conf

[atrpms]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - ATrpms
baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/fc$releasever-$basearch/atrpms/stable

but the directory http://dl.atrpms.net/fc4-i386/atrpms/stable does not exist! There is the directory


http://dl.atrpms.net/fc4-i386/atrpms/testing/

but mythtv is not in that directory.

So can someone shed some much needed light on this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Should I be using a different tool to install a myth?

[mythtv-users] DCT2000 SLOW!

2005-10-05 Thread Tony O'Rourke
I have managed to get mythtv to change the channel via a serial cable
hooked up to the cable box, in my case a Motorola DCT2000. It runs the
changechannel.py script supplied with mythtv. But here is the rub: the
channels change super slow- like 8 seconds slow. It works, but is
unacceptably slow. 

I believe my serial ports are configures correctly comparing the output of 

dmesg | grep ttyS

and setserial -g /dev/ttyS1

These settings agree with the settings in the bios. In other words I believe the serial port is configured properly. 

Anybody have any idea what is not right?-- --TonyThe mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled.-Plutarch
