Hi
I have 3 machines and none seem to be working right since running the update on Jan 03, 10. The symptoms are slightly different for each:
All are running LinHES R6. The FE machines were loaded with R6 several months ago, while the MBE was only upgraded from 5.5 in mid December.
The FE1 machine worked fine after the upgrade to .22 that came in mid-Dec. After upgrading on the 3rd, mythfrontend would start, but no text would show on the screen. I could get an XTerm session using ctrl+x, restart X with ctrl+alt+Backspace, but nothing would get the mythfrontend working.
The FE2 machine began having problems immediately upon upgrading to .22. Specifically, it would completely freeze up when trying to exit live or recorded programmes. When I say freeze, I mean the entire machine would become unresponsive, and even SSH sessions would become unresponsive, and only a hard boot would get us back to the main screen.
On the backend I can't seem to get the text to show up since upgrading to .22. The symptoms are very similar to FE1: mythfrontend is running but does not actually do anything.
Given the problems I was having with the FEs after the Jan 03 update I decided to hold off on the MBE
Diskless FE1: VIA EPIA M10000, 512MB RAM
Diskless FE2: Jetway VIA C7 2.0G CX700M HDMI J7F5M2G-VHE 1GB RAM
Backend: 3GHz P4, 512MB, 1.740TB LVM
2 PVR-500, 1 HDHomerun
ASUS P4800-VM Motherboard using Intel on-board video to supply monitor that is rarely used as a FE.
I have rolled back the two FE machines using the following:
Code:
cd /data/var/cache/pacman/pkg/ && pacman -U tablet-encode-2.30-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythmovies-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythweather-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythvideo-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U myththemes-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythnews-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythmusic-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythgallery-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythgame-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythbrowser-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythflix-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mytharchive-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U morethemes-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz && pacman -U mythtv-0.22-22000-i686.pkg.tar.gz &&
Nothing has changed.
BTW, I have checked Flyspray, and there's nothing newly reported since mid-Dec that approximates these problems.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks
Victor
