  • FanControl2

    works only with new drivers of 2010 from Gemini 4.6 or other OE1.5/1.6 Images
    for DM500HD, DM8000HD, DM800se


    What it does at the moment:
    - Control a 3pin or 4pin fan (PWM) fans
    - Setting: (configuration via plugin list)
    Fan type 3pin / 4pin / off control of /
    Fan off in standby + except during recording or HDD
    minimum and maximum speed
    Control-rest and the end-temperature
    Initial voltage and PWM value
    - Slow control with almost no CPU load
    - Safety Function: Fan on at maximum temperature, fan failure detection and emergency
    - Base temperature is the average of the two highest temperatures!
    - Check min / max speed of the fan
    - Display of current values as a number and bar + + HDD temperature monitor all sensors
    - Web info page http://ip.der.dream.box/fancontrol (activity, values, online chart)
    - Data-logging (FC2data.csv) and event logging (FC2events.txt) in file
    - Prepare multi-language (welcome to the pot file ipkg other languages)


    Small FAQ
    - Resting temperature: up to this temperature is not regulated and the minimum speed is set
    - End temperature: the maximum temperature that may occur is reached this will set the maximum speed
    (There is no recommendation for the temp area, try some of what can be achieved for the results, anything between 40-50 ° C)
    - Voltage / PWM
    If this value changes are immediately set for the fan (for the reading of the initial speed). However, it is now the basis of these values equal to more regulated. With these values, the fan starts Boxstart.
    4pin: set to full power (DM500HD/DM800se to 5-10) or reached at a value of at least the maximum desired speed, set the initial speed with PWM (PWM is controlled, if not sufficient, the voltage)
    3pin: (to be regulated voltage only) set top speed with power
    - Fan type 3pin or 4pin
    If you can not just looking, what type of fan has built one that can easily be found out. This change just the start PWM controller. Changes thereby the speed, it is a 4pin fan.
    - Settings
    The configured settings are stored in the Enigma settings and are therefore included in the Backup / Restore
    - The speed is the real speed, other tools show twice, that of false
    - The box must have an adjustable fan hardware port and temperature sensor (s) (tested on DM500HD and DM8000HD)
    - Online Chart
    The data logging must be enabled to do so. When logging directory, a USB stick or CF card can be used. A time as logging into the flash or / tmp is possible. It should also be recorded because of the limited space only a little. A logging on / media / hdd does the hard drive run constantly, so not recommended.
    Event logging is looking for problems to appropriate (not necessary for chart)
    - HDD Temperature
    If the hard drive from the sleep mode wake up (every 10min), please ask "the reading of HDD temperature" to No, or Never!
    - Installation
    IPK Package
    with FTP (DCC) to / tmp copy
    changer with a file manager in the Verzeichins / tmp and install package
    or
    Telnet:
    cd / tmp
    ipkg install *. ipk
    - Remove
    ipkg remove enigma2-plugin-extensions-fancontrol2


    - Note: Restart after installation / update / remove Enigma


    (12.06.) : ignore high rpm values; do not crash at os.calls

    Usually the picons will be automatically recognised from the usb drive if its been mapped properly.
    You can try this in telnet then reboot for picons to show,

  • Sly uk ready ViX Team VU+ Duo Image v2.2 backup

    Quote from neolxs

    For me its crashing when you click the right arrow and scroll through the channels, and its also crashing when you swap flick between Irish DTT and Sat.


    Dosent happen all the time, but enough to p you off, especially when you the boot screen has the picture of a women in bondage, not great when you have young kids.


    The boot screen shown in the screen shots, surely you must have realized this is not appropriate for your kids before you downloaded and installed it.

  • HOW TO - Read UPnP Media Server with another computer using djmount for ubuntu

    djmount is a program that will mount a media server to your system just like any other file system. It's perfect for small laptops on which you can't store music but still want to be able to play media like movies, pictures and music from (that's the exact reason why I battled, learned and shared this with you).


    That means, if you have one computer with a fairly large hard drive with a lot of media, that computer can act as a media server (don't worry, It won't render your computer inoperable). That way, all other computers in the local area network can access this computers media files through your network.


    First of all you need a good media server. If you don't have any good media server, you can try MythTV or as I would reccommend: MediaTomb (installing instructions can be found here (Stream media from ubuntu to your ps3 « Linux Owns))


    Enough rambling for now, let's get going.


    1) Download and install FUSE
    FUSE is required by djmount to function properly. To be exact, djmount is actually built upon FUSE but with a simpler interface.


    Download FUSE from here (Filesystem in Userspace - Browse /fuse-2.X at SourceForge.net). Extract FUSE to some convenient location like your home folder. Open a terminal and navigate to where you extracted your archive (if you extracted them in your home folder, no change is needed). Navigation is done via the command cd which means change directory. cd .. (cd space period period) will take you to a higher level in the folder tree and cd directoryname will take you to the folder named directoryname. For seeing which files and folders are contained in the current location, type

    Code
    ls

    .


    Type

    Code
    cd fuse-2.8.5

    and hit enter (or if you have another version, swap "2.8.5" to that version). Type

    Code
    ./configure

    . You'll see a lot if text rolling up the terminal by now. If you get errors at this stage, see footnote 1). When that text is done (and hopefully without errors) type sudo make (and enter your password... don't worry about not seeing character representation like stars or dots, it's designed that way) and more text will run up the terminal. When that text is done rolling up the screen (again hopefully without errors), type sudo make install.


    If these procedures succeeded, you have now installed FUSE.


    2) Downloading and installing djmount
    djmount is the actual program that will mount your media server on to your local computer. That means that it will link a directory of your choice to the media server's index which make the folder look like it's full of media files even though they're on a different computer.


    Download djmount here (djmount - mount AV device as filesystem - Browse /djmount at SourceForge.net). Now we need to repeat what we did with FUSE. Extract your archive to a convenient location. Navigate to that location through the terminal. Type

    Code
    cd djmount-0.71

    (or if you have a different version, change 0-71 to that version). Type

    Code
    ./configure

    . Wait until it is done and type

    Code
    sudo make

    . Now wait until it's done again and type

    Code
    sudo make install

    .


    You have now installed djmount


    3) Using djmount
    First start up your media server. Then go to the terminal. Type

    Code
    modprobe -l -t the-directory-you-want-to-have-your-mediaserver-in fuse

    . Then type

    Code
    djmount the-directory-you-want-to-have-your-mediaserver-in

    .


    DONE! You can now navigate to the-directory-you-want-to-have-your-media-in either by terminal or with thunar/nautilus/konqueror (your file browser) and use the media from there.


    4) Autostart (optional)
    *Regular Ubuntu: Go to system => Preferences => Sessions, click add, type a name (like UPnP or MediaServer) in the name section, in the command section, enter sleep 20 && modprobe -l -t the-directory-you-want-to-have-your-media-in fuse && djmount the-directory-you-want-to-have-your-media-in, and optionally enter a comment in the comment section


    *EeeXubuntu: go to applications => settings => autostarted applications. Type a name (like UPnP or MediaServer) in the name section, in the command section, enter sleep 20 && modprobe -l -t the-directory-you-want-to-have-your-media-in fuse && djmount the-directory-you-want-to-have-your-media-in, and optionally enter a comment in the comment section.



    5a) Cleaning up
    The folders you extracted is no longer needed. They can't be deleted directly since you have fiddled around with them as something called root (one can say that it is an administrator). That makes root the owner and you are not allowed to edit or delete them. The easy way to fix this is to us the terminal where you put the previous commands and type sudo your file browser. On regular ubuntu (not kubuntu or xubuntu) that file browser is nautilus, and on xubuntu it is thunar, and on kubuntu it is konqueror. Now you are in the root browser and can delete the files easily. Your home folder is located in the home directory.



    5b) Alternative cleanup
    This can also be fixed by navigating in the terminal to the folder directly above the djmount folder and type

    Code
    sudo chown -R djmount-0.71

    . chown changes the ownership of an item. -R means recursive (i.e. the folder, all it's subfolders and files). sudo means "as root, do". If you have a different version, just change 0.71 to that version.
    Now the repeat procedure for the FUSE folder but change djmount-0.71 to fuse-2.7.3 (again if you have a different version, change 2.7.3 to that version).


    Happy watching/listening =)






    Footnotes
    1) You might encounter problems with your C compiler. It'll say something like "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
    See `config.log' for more details.". If so, install the rather huge package build-essential from the synaptic package manager.


    2) If you find the password thingy difficult and would like to keep track of how many characters you've entered, just swap sudo for gksudo.


    3) The folder paths can easily be obtained by navigating to them in your file browser and pressing ctrl + l


    4) Most MediaServers work with sony's PlayStation 3, and so will MediaTomb to which I linked above.
