Well decided to bite the bullet and do the upgrade. First I ran the backup from the menu before I started.
I booted from the CD told it to do the upgrade and go!
During the upgrade process it said something like "configuring system" which I thought was odd but then finished and told me to reboot.
After the reboot it looked pretty good but I noticed I had errors on several tuners. It turns out that "some script" added three additional tuners for my HDHomerun Prime, and another for the HD-5500 I have installed in the system. I ended up deleting all the tuners, then started to add them and noticed they were not listed where they should be in \dev\v4l.
I ssh'd into the box to check some things, I looked in /etc/udev/rules.d and my 10-local.rules was gone. Sooo when I went to get a copy of that from /root and noticed that all the files were gone.
expept for the one's listed below.
Code:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 116 Oct 14 08:30 .bash_profile
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 826 Oct 14 08:30 .automated_script.sh
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 14 08:30 .post_process.old
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32 Oct 27 14:17 .install_size
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5526 Oct 27 14:18 install.txt
drwxr-xr-x 22 root root 4096 Nov 1 15:54 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 1 15:54 .config
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 1 15:54 .mythtv
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16 Nov 1 18:19 test
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Nov 1 19:04 .
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 44 Nov 1 19:05 .profile
-rw------- 1 root root 1279 Nov 1 19:05 .bash_history
Is there a way to restore the files from /root from the a backup? I recreated 10-local.rules rebooted again then reconfigured all the tuners.
At this point most everything was working except for my HDPVR. I couldn't get the blaster working.
I got the following entry in dmesg when I use the irsend command to the blaster
Code:
[ 431.980820] i2c i2c-4: Direct firmware load failed with error -2

I found this
Code:
Yeah, you're missing /lib/firmware/haup-ir-blaster.bin, has to be manually added to the system.
Apparently is was included in 8.1 but it's not on the 8.2 ISO. I found a copy of it here:
Code:
http://www.blushingpenguin.com/mark/lmilk/haup-ir-blaster.bin
EDIT - also available using " pacman -S zilog-firmware "
I've also noticed that I don't get the "colors" in the root account. I tried a
.profile and
a
.bashrc files with
Code:
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
but couldn't get it to work on login. If I log in as the mythtv user it works as there is
.bashrc in that user directory.
Any thoughts on how to make this work?
Thanks.
One other note: Non of my installed extras were installed either, ie xbmc, webmin, handbrake
