Sergio,
"Failed to contacg GUI server is symptomatic of mvprelay not being reachable
from the MVP. When you're testing, make sure you disable your Windows based
Haupauge SW or just unplug the Windows box from the network. Secondly, check
that you're not running firewall SW on your linux box such as IPchains or
IPtables that is blocking access to the required ports on the Linux box.
Finally, your tftpd should be able to log activities so you can tell if its
receiving a request to pull down the dongle.
I have not setup any firewall on the Linux box. Basically I followed the
instructions on wilsonet.com
(http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/printer-friendly.php?SID
<http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/printer-friendly.php?SID&expandables=closed&ivtv
=closed&pvr350out=closed> &expandables=closed&ivtv=closed&pvr350out=closed)
to build the MythTV box. In those instructions it advises not to enable any
firewall software.
Yes I do have logging enabled, and just confirmed that the log updates with
a tftp request to port 16869. Just a note, I have never seen a tftp log
entry anytime I have booted up the MVP, no matter what combination I used.
One question, if you use your Hauppauge server and replace the Hauppauge
dongle with the mvpmc dongle can you boot it or at least telnet to the MVP
once it appears to have downloaded it?
Hauppauge will come up fine and work as expected even if I replace the
dongle.bin with the mvpmc one. As far as telnet is concerned, I cannot
telnet into the MVP on port 23.
Thanks,
Frank
