LinHES Forums :: View topic - Possible Bug: i586

Thanks for the report Stuart. The error creating /root/.qt is a feature, not a bug. The only possible problem w/ i586 is the password as that is the only thing contained in the package. Which i586 package did you install? since it is working, cp /usr/share/mythtv/mysql.txt ~/mythtv/(do this as the user mythtv) then install the i586 package. Running a C3, you do need to run the i586 package.

cesman

well I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to accomplish but to install the i586 package you would get a root console and type install-i586

Which i586 package did you install? There are 4 i586, i586l(lirc), i586x(xvmc) and i586lx(lirc and xvmc). When I built and tested these packages all worked fine. Which one did you install so that I can double check it. BTW: Since you are installing on a Epia, you'll need to recompile MythTV if you plan to use the CLE266.

StuartAmbient...

if you have the Nehemiah, i'm pretty sure the i686 package will work fine for you. however all other C3s (like my 933) will need the i586 packages.

cesman, i can verify that there is a bug in the i586-l install. it appears that your install script (on first boot) is expecting the mysql root user to be able to log in without a password. this is where it failed for me w/ R4.

this is my first time booting knoppmyth, btw. i'll take a closer look at it tomorrow.

keredson - as long as you bring this up, it wasn't so much as a concern for the CPU as it was for getting the VIA video drivers working under KMr4. Any experience in that area?

Post subject:	Possible Bug: i586
I was struggling with the install of KM. Install seemed to go okay, but after reboot and config things went awry. qt / password / and database errors. I posted the log file in a previous thread. Finally I went ahead and left it at the i686 default and things went fine. I'm just not sure of the implications since I"m running on a Via C3 CPU. StuartAmbient

The problem as stated above, was changing to i586 during KM configuration was causing an install problem. Now that I have done the console install, is that all that is needed for the correct KM configuration? Thanks Stuart

I followed the above instructions , from console , install-i586. I'm not sure what xvmc is, I assume I will need lirc for blaster and remote? I know I need to rebuild Myth. Stuart

Yes, exactly what happened when I tried to install with i586. I'm still trying to figure out why, my Nehemiah shows up as 933 (now under RH9). keredson - as long as you bring this up, it wasn't so much as a concern for the CPU as it was for getting the VIA video drivers working under KMr4. Any experience in that area? Stuart

Any experience in that area? nope. i wouldn't expect to either, unless this project makes a deal not unlike the deal minimyth made with VIA. their drivers are specific to kernel builds. they worked fine w/ rH9 however.
