I recently purchased an AVerMedia A835 digital TV receiver USB stick, only to be advised by AVerMedia that it's a Windows-only model. Does anyone know which USB DVB sticks work well with Linux. I'm in Brisbane, Australia, currently using PCLinuxOS, but have several other distros on different partitions.
View 3 RepliesMy friend has a Linux base receiver and he using that receiver as a server he was asking me if he can remotely access that receiver from another computer and do the work he needs to do and be able to restart the receiver remotely. If you can do it how is it done using win xp.

View 5 Replies View RelatedA user from our domain sent an email with big attachments to a recepient of other domain, and the same email was sent several times to the receiver.
I checked the df and qf file on our sendmail server, in /var/spool/mqueue and found following:
qfo5SHgJqX006403:Mreply: read error from remote-host.somedomain.com.
qfo5SHgJqX006403:MDeferred: Connection timed out with remote-host.somedomain.com.
I deleted all qf and df files for this particular mail. So deleting the df and qf file has stopped sending mails repeatedly to the receiver.
Is this problem at our end or the receipient end? Why is the same mail sent several times to the receiver?
I'm about to ditch Freenas as my NAS software and make it an Ubuntu server box. The mainboard is an Asus AT3ION-T dual core Atom board. Freenas runs happily from USB stick. I have no optical device to install Ubuntu from and would like to install Ubuntu Server to a USB stick.

TV works fine just right out of the box, but I can't make IR working no matter what I do.I tried to follow the instructions from linuxtv.org to configure LIRC and also followed recommendations from various forums in the internet, but nothing helped. Then I have tried gnome-lirc-properties, the device was detected, but no reaction on button clicks either.The device itself is Ok, I have checked it on Windows.I cannot say that I understand well enough how linux works with input devices, but I have a suspicious that no signal comes to the corresponding /dev/input/.... How could I check it on the low level?

I�ve made an minimal Ubuntu 9.10 installation and after install and configuring LIRC with the Igor Cesko�s USB Receiver the system holds by loading the modules. By trying a reconfiguration, the system says, that LIRC is defect.If I try the load the needed modules by hand, there is no problem to load lirc_dev, but I get the same system hold by loading lirc_igorplugusb. Are there any known problems with lirc_igorplugusb and Ubuntu 9.10?

I want to use the BU-353 GPS Receiver with Kismet in a Slackware 13 64bit install. I'm holding off on buying it because, even though they have linux drivers, the only distro listed in the linux drivers section is Redhat.Will the Redhat drivers work with Slack?[URL]..
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn our factory, we used to use a bell system to signal breaks. Well they died. I figured it would be easy to replace those bells with speakers which ran into an Ubuntu box. I would just schedule some cron jobs to play a sound file to signal breaks.
However, I'm not talking about desktop speakers, and here's where the problem is. I only need two speakers. Do I need to run them both into a receiver/amplifier of some kind? Then run that into the back of the PC sound card? The actual speaker setup is where I'm new at. What would be the best way to get 2 (maybe more in future) LOUD speakers, separated by a few hundred feet, to the back of a computer that would control the ringing?
I have ubuntu 10.04 installed. I have a problem when my usb IR receiver is connected, than suspend mode isn't working. System will jump into black screen and that's all. Only hard reset works. I tested this problem also on ubuntu 9.04 and situation is the same.Is there any way how to force suspend mode without "looking" on this device? Do you need any log file to trace reason of this problem ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recently obtained a HTPC which has Mythbuntu pre-installed and already working with a remote it came with. I have another remote that I have changed over to (including the ir receiver) as it had easier button layout. Setup seems to have gone fine, but when the pc is restarted (turned of and on) then the ir receiver is not reloaded in the usb port. This was not a problem with the old remote. If once the pc is on I unplug and re-plug the ir receiver then it loads and works fine.
Running a lsusb in terminal shows that it is definitely not loaded on restart but is when re-plugged in.
I trouble someone to provide some assistance on how to properly install this thing and get it to work? I have been all over the web trying all sorts of different "tutorials", but most of them start off okay, and then I get errors in the terminal, or the commands in the tutorials become specific to one person's particular system, and I can go no further. I really want to use Ubuntu 11 on a system that currently is running the reprehensible Windows Vista, and if I could just get this Wireless receiver to work, I would be able to format Vista into oblivion.
So, can someone start at the very beginning, and help me through this? Please keep in mind that I am as green as a leprechaun when it comes to Ubuntu, so please make instructions verbose and geared to a layperson, if it wouldn't be too much trouble. So, the unit is plugged in, and ready to go. What's first?

Could it be a kernel issue?
im about 3 weeks into linux, started out with fedora actually, but switched to ubuntu. First days of linux was intense but slowly got the hang of it and i enjoy it way better than my previous op vista.
Sound System Setup-
Sony Receiver 3 speakers and 1 subwoofer
From receiver Y connector -(red plug and white plug R/L) to audio plug that goes into laptop output. Laptop- AsusTek g51x with
PHP Code:

PHP Code:

Sound card has Headphone,output,and input holes.
OS- Ubuntu 10.04
The setup worked fine on vista, but on ubuntu whenever i plug in headphones (headphone output) the laptops internal speakers shut off and there is no sound on the headphones, and when i plug in the sony receiver audio plug to my sound card output hole, the laptops speakers are still playing but no sound in the sony receiver. Also when i open the Ubuntu sound manager (I think its either pulseaudio or ASLA, stock gnome one) , it says on the Output tab, "Choose a device for sound output", but there is only one option and it says
"Internal audio analog stereo".
Im literally extremely lost at this point, i have read the forums for help, ASLA wiki (only shows USB sound device support) messed with the Sound Preferences, and spend around 9 hours in the last 2 days trying to make this work.
I installed Ubuntu as well but was still using the windows loader. I eventually installed Ubuntu Studio when I got another HDD (which is where I installed it). Don't ask me how I did it. As of now no loader automatically pops up. It acts as if there is nothing to boot from. However I can hit f12 and chose which HDD to boot to. On one it comes up with the Windows loader w/ Vista and Ubuntu. I can chose Vista and it works just fine. However if I chose Ubuntu it starts going a lil nuts and restarts. If I chose the other HDD it boots up Grub w/ options of Ubuntu and Ubuntu Studio. Studio works (which I'm currently on) and pretty much the same thing happens as before when I chose Ubuntu. So if the 2 OS's that I need work (Only really use windows for games) then what is the problem? I know its a little bit annoying trying to remember to hit f12 and having to chose your OS again after that (and of course the extremely annoying vista startup times). Some other things in both Studio and Vista don't want to work like they should. This is about the only thing left that I could think of that may have something to do with it. My wireless card+an old wireless card I found won't work w/ either.
Yet they both work on other computers running Vista and/or Ubuntu (not studio). I seem to always keep having display problems on both as well (dual monitors and graphics both). Even on studio I have to restart it sometimes to even get it to let me go fix it. My wireless controller receiver (for games) will stop working randomly and need to be unplugged and plugged back in. I also have problems with Studio recognizing SD cards and DVD/CD's. I am not sure much of anything can be done aside from wipe and fresh install on both. Bad thing is I don't have my other computer with me and can't afford to buy a 1TB HDD right now.
My 5 year old daughter is having a great time singing to the karaoke game I've put onto my Ubuntu HTPC system. However the USB microphone is having a hard time!
I was wondering if it would be possible to use an "Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver (Crossfire) For Windows" in Ubuntu with the cordless mic I already have for my Xbox 360? I guess it'll be a driver issue as always. However, I also note that MS don't mention the receiver works specifically with the microphone, they only mention the control pad and steering wheel, so I could be going down a blind alley anyway.
I am facing some problem with the mailx commmand. When i run the mailx command from the command line it sends it to the correct mail address which i mention.
#cat mailbody | mailx -s "Test" sampleaddr@abc.com
But when i run the same command from a perl script, it appends the machine name (hostname.abc.com) to the mail address, and the mail address (sampleaddr@abc.com - which i entered) becomes invalid [URL] - found in the maillog), failing to reach the receiver. I am running it from the csh shell. how to avoid this addition.

I'm been struggling to find a way to configure suse to send audio to a receiver in some cases. Details: - Did a fresh install - Using an old SoundBlaster card (which worked in my previous version of openSuse) - I do have digital out, but only for Amarok (start menu -> configure desktop -> multimedia -> prefer "SB Live! Platinum [CT4760P], Multichannel Capture/PT Playback (IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio Output") and Kaffeine (.kde4/share/apps/kaffeine/xine-config -> set "audio.output.speaker_arrangement:Pass Through").
- I have analog sound on firefox and "test volume" on Administrator Settings -> Sound, but just can't find a way to configure those to digital passthrough (tried to copy "audio.output.speaker_arrangement:Pass Through" to .config/kde.org/Phonon-Xine.xine.conf but didn't work)

I just installed 10.10 on a Jetway HBJC600C99-52W machine. It has the NVIDIA ION2 chipset. Through a lot of struggles, I have managed to get most of the computer working well with Linux. The part that I'm still struggling with is the remote control. With Ubuntu out of the box, perhaps about 1/3 of the buttons are recognized. From additional research, it looks like lirc is supposed to address this issue. I tried installing lirc however, after installation the only thing that shows up is /dev/lircd. I was expecting something like /dev/lirc0. I've tried is via
sudo apt-get install lirc
and then I picked the Windows Media Center receiver
I also tried what was in this thread [URL] however, that seems to be on a different jetway model, an NVIDIA ION chipset instead of an ION2 and the driver install for the IR receiver didn't work for me. I was wondering if anyone had success installing lirc and getting all the keys on their remote working.
