Good evening, all:<br><br> I just upgraded my frontend and backend systems from Ubuntu 7.10 to Ubuntu 8.04. For some reason, after this upgrade, I am unable to watch recordings or live TV on my upgraded frontend, though I am able to watch videos using the internal player (the recordings are stored on the backend, but the videos are stored on another machine; the backend connects to this via NFS, and the frontend gets the videos through the connection to the backend....I hope that makes sense). I've checked all the normall server settings, and I can see nothing wrong with any of that; everything seems to be as it was before the upgrade. It does not appear to be a networking issue, as I am able to connect via NFS, and as I said, I can watch videos. The frontend starts and loads fine, it's just when I go to actually watch something, I end up with a black screen. I am able to connect and watch videos/recordings/live tv from my two other frontends, one running Ubuntu 8.04, and one running Debian etch. <br>
<br>Has anyone seen anything similar? Any suggestions? <br><br>I'm also having a little trouble administering my backend. It runs headless, and I normally interact with it via VNC from my main desktop machine. It work fine with 7.10; I was able to connect when the backend was at the login screen, and I simply had to login via the VNC connection. Now it seems that when I try to login this way, I get a message saying the connection was reset by peer or something like that. If I hook a keyboard and monitor to the machine, and login that way, I am then able to connect with VNC as I normally do. Again, this is new as of my upgrade to 8.04 today. <br>
<br>I have work arounds for the VNC problem, but I really don't know what to do about the issue with my main frontend. Any help would be appreciated. <br><br>Thanks,<br><br> Josh<br>
