Log

2007-06-27

  • apple TV seems to be trying to boot from usb stick
  • check USB stick
  • opened Apple TV
  • need 44-pin to 40-pin IDE adapter

Backup

2007-07-13

  • connect appletv to
  • backup disk

    $ dd if=/dev/hdc | gzip -1 | nc -w 5 192.168.1.5 31066

And on the backup machine (192.168.1.5):

Installation

2007-07-14

  • install mb_boot_tv
  • repartition disk
  • install Linux

On the machine used for partitioning and installing Linux, the appletv HDD is /dev/sdb

# mount /dev/sdb3 -t hfsplus /media/OSBoot
# mount /dev/sdb2 -t hfsplus /media/Recovery
# cp ~/appletv/mb_boot_tv /media/OSBoot/
# cp ~/appletv/mb_boot_tv /media/Recovery/
# chmod 755 /media/{OSBoot,Recovery}/mb_boot_tv
# umount /media/OSBoot
# umount /media/Recovery

$ cat ../appletv-rca-sound.patch.gz | gunzip - | patch -p1
$ patch -p1 < ../appletv-rtc.patch
$ patch -p1 < ../appletv-ir.patch

What the patches do:

  • appletv-rca-sound - changes the detection of the RCA sound chip
  • appletv-rtc - disables RTC, preventing oopses
  • appletv-ir - forces AppleTV IR to be detected as an HID device

$ vim ~/.xinitrc

$ exit
# apt-get remove fluxbox

"Ctrl-R ?" shows ratpoison options

Fix .xinitrc so it restarts mythfrontend following a crash

$ cat > .xinitrc
exec xset s off &
exec xsetroot -solid black &
exec ratpoison & ratpid=$!
exec $HOME/launch_myth.sh &
wait $ratpid
EOF




$ cat > /home/mythtv/launch_myth.sh
#!/bin/sh
for i in {1..25} ; do
        mythfrontend 2>> $HOME/MYTHERRORS
        EXIT=$?
        if (( $EXIT == 0 )) ;
                then exit $EXIT
        fi
done
EOF
$ chmod u+x launch_myth.sh

This now restarts mythfrontend up to 25 times. If X crashes then .profile restarts it.

Upgrade to Lenny

2008-02-24

dist-upgraded to Lenny in order to test Elisa and other media systems

Kernel Update

Update to 2.6.23.11

Run the NVIDIA installer, but do not replace the kernel module installed from the non-free repos

Frontrow

OK, issues with Lenny graphics drivers. So no go. Perhaps I could downgrade again...

Either way, [MythTV][37][?][37] UI just doesn't cut it, so I'm dumping it and moving to Frontrow plus Plugins...

  • Upgrade sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade

  • Failure to configure python-minimal

    • Launchpad #990740 E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'python-minimal'.Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2)

    • Workaround (via stefanor) is to upgrade apt first, then do-release-upgrade.

    • Too late for do-release-upgrade, so install python-minimal then the rest.
  • Other packages sudo aptitude install xbmc sudo aptitude install nvidia-current

  • Rebooted, screwed up the kernel images

  • Installed nvidia, failed to initialize GLX Failed to initialize the GLX module; please check in your X log file that the GLX module has been loaded in your X Server, and that the module is the NVIDIA GLX module. If you continue to encounter problems, Please try reinstalling the NVIDIA driver.

    • run nvidia-xconfig to fix it sudo nvidia-xconfig
