Regular call for software engineering assistance
by David Nicol 28 Apr '11

28 Apr '11

Who would like to help with my project? I'm still looking for someone who would enjoy regularly hanging out and coding on Sunday afternoons, including discussion of architecture, starting with what I've already got set up. No this is not an employment offer -- there's no budget for that yet.

Sound Recording Issue in Fedora 14 with MythTV 0.24
by Peter Cross 28 Apr '11

28 Apr '11

I have been experiencing a sound issue in F14 with MythTV 0.24. The sound is similar to something out of an old radio (non-stereo). This issue did not exist in F12 with 0.23. I have attached a 9MB clip for those that care to offer suggestions and opinions (all are welcome). http://pjcrux.amahi.me/Public/The%20Ten%20Commandments-1.mpg I have checked the settings in alsamixer as well as the settings in MythTV and everything appears correct. Is there somewhere else I could be looking or haven't thought to look? This machine is the backend for all of my frontends in the house. My HW setup is as follows: Fedora 14 DVD x86_64 MythTV 0.24 (via RPMFusion) AMD Phenom x3 2.3GHz 8GB DDR2-800 Asus M3N78-Pro WD 160GB (for OS) Seagate 1.5TB (for videos) Samsung 1TB (For files) PVR-500 Hauppauge Looking for any kind of help. I've cross posted this to a few other LUG's I'm a member of and have received no bites. -- Cheers! Peter J.

TV Tuners on GNU/Linux
by Joe Holloway 28 Apr '11

28 Apr '11

I'm wanting to put a TV Tuner in my desktop at home. Initially, I'd like to be able to watch and record shows over TWC from my desktop, but maybe long term have some kind of media center rig that I could use to serve media out to other devices in the house. Anyway, I'm having some analysis paralysis going over MythTV FAQs and the like. Was wondering if anyone had recommendations or experience with a well-supported TV Tuner card on the more popular GNU/Linux distros? Can I pretty much pick from any of the newer Hauppauge hardware? I understand that to decode most HDTV I'd probably need a cable receiver feeding into the tuner. That's not a huge deal, but would obviously be better without it. I'd like to be able to watch and record at the same time (I think), so I'd either need two cards or a dual tuner, right? Any general pointers? I found some KCLUG discussions from a few years back, but thought it might be worth asking again to get some more current information. Thanks, Joe

Re: Buying a New Laptop
by Glenn Robuck 28 Apr '11

I dont find that the adjustment to 16x9 is such a big deal, it does change the size of my windows and I have to have them a bit higher up though. I am planning on buying three 16x9 screens in the near future but I plan on using two of them in portrait mode on each side of the middle one in landscape mode. Works great for video and photo editing as well as coding. On Apr 23, 2011 12:16 PM, "Joe Holloway" <jholloway7(a)gmail.com> wrote:

imap setups
by Jonathan Hutchins 23 Apr '11

23 Apr '11

We're having some trouble getting a MacBook Pro and a Palm Pre connected to a mailserver. We're using plain-text password authenticatioport with ssl on port 993, and both systems complain of an ssl error. I've installed the certificate on each device and told it to trust it. Has anybody had problems like this with Mac Mail or Palm devices? How did you solve it? Does anybody know what the limitations on what kind of imap configuration will work with these?

Buying a New Laptop
by Jim Herrmann 23 Apr '11

23 Apr '11

I'm buying a new laptop really soon. What do the members of KCLUG recommend for a Linux only laptop. Pre-installed or no OS is fine with me, I just don't want to pay for something I'm never going to use. I'm willing to spend in the neighborhood of a grand, give or take a few hundred. So, I want a fairly nice machine, light weight for travel, but durable and reliable. And, it goes without saying, Linux friendly. You guys are super resourceful, so I wanted to tap into the vast knowledge base on this list. Thanks in advance for your input. Jim Herrmann
