| Post subject: | R6 with 0.22 - Need Help |
Just some background, I have been a Knoppmyth user from a few years ago, I upgraded to R6 during the first beta, and more recently upgraded to the mythtv 0.22-fixes using this guide: http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=20650. Just today I did a Code: pacman -Syu hoping that it would fix some of the issues that I have been having but no such luck. Also, I am pretty competent in linux specifically, ubuntu/debian but am pretty new to Arch. Here is what is going on.1. SOLVED (See third post. Thanks Das Hammer!)- On boot, network doesn't come up. I have to open a terminal and do Code: sudo /etc/rc.d/network restart to get it up.2. mythbackend doesn't start on reboot. I think this may have something to do with 1.? I need to open a terminal and Code: mythackend --logfile /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log I have tried doing a Code: sv start mythbackend but get a file not found error...3. mythfrontend doesn't start on reboot. A clean boot drops me to the tux screen. I have to open a terminal and Code: mythfrontend --logfile /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log to get it started. 4. Audio issues on some HD recordings. I have HDMI audio "working" for most recordings, however, there seems to be a couple of recordings that I get audio dropouts on. The light on my receiver kind of flickers and it doesn't play any audio except maybe the first second. It plays fine on a networked attached frontend (ubuntu karmic). The internal player will play the video fine, but the audio drops out. I tried mplayer on the file and it plays fine on that as well. So it appears that there is a problem with the internal player? The odd thing is other HD recordings play fine. It was just a couple of movies recorded from ABC HD that it is having trouble with. 5. This is more of a question on how to get things working in Arch. But I have a bluetooth keyboard that I use to navigate. I can't seem to figure out how to make this pair automagically. What I have to do is use a wired keyboard and do Code: /etc/rc.d/bluetooth start to get the thing connected. Is there a way in arch to have this automatically connect on boot? (EDIT) I did try the stuff here:http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth_Keyboard
simple-agent hidd search but still no love. 6. (EDIT added 6) Default ALSA device changes between boots from HDA-NVIDIA to PC-SPEAKER. I can fix it in the service menu by changing the device to /dev/dsp1 but it is annoying... So far, besides these little things, LinHES has been great. Any and all help with this is appreciated!

1. nano /etc/net/ifaces/eth0/options and see if ONBOOT=yes (this is assuming eth0 is the interface you are using. If you only have one wired connection, then it probably is). |

Das Hammer, thanks for the reply. It is hard to find stuff as I am used to debian/ubuntu. But I looked in /etc/net/ifaces/eth0 and there was no options file. it only had this: Code: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15 2009-01-30 12:06 ipv4address.pacsave
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24 2009-01-30 12:06 ipv4route.pacsave -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2554 2010-01-11 18:30 options.pacsave.orig but in /etc/net/ifaces/default there was an options file, I noticed that BOOTPROTO was set to static. It should be dhcp so I changed it to BOOTPROTO=dhcp also ONBOOT=yes was in there. That looks like it fixed it. On reboot, it picks up the ip, and mounts my raid array over the network. BUt I also noticed another annoying thing. Not sure if it is an ALSA thing but on reboot, sometimes it picks up HDA-NVIDIA as the "default" device and everything is good, but sometimes it picks up the PC-SPEAKER as default. When that happens I have to go to the service menu and change everything to /dev/dsp1. Is there a way to make this consistent across boots? I'll call this 6. |

Thanks for the tip mihanson, OK, I added pcps to the ALSABLACKLIST in /etc/rc.conf like this: Code: ALSABLACKLIST="soundcore pcps"
I'll watch it over the next few reboots to see if this fixes it. So it looks like I still have a couple of more niggles to go. Thanks for the suggestions so far. The mythfrontend and mythbackend not starting on boot is still puzzling. Dothedog |
