Hi Dallas, Updates available in -proposed are not fully tested and verified as working. If you have installed all updates available from -proposed you may have installed something that is not working properly. You may find it simpler to erase your hard disk and start again.
I can personally vouch for using the following method as I have used this and I have my Mythbuntu box running in Prod, including a high WAF ;) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wife_acceptance_factor Install Mythbuntu with the VNC option unticked. After the installation is finished and you have booted from the hard disk, install VNC and set the password manually: Open a terminal (Applications > System > Xfce Terminal) and type the following commands: sudo apt-get install x11vnc mkdir $HOME/.vnc x11vnc -storepasswd $HOME/.vnc/passwd Install all other updates are you would normally. Do NOT include updates from -proposed. Reboot. If you look in MCC it will now show VNC as already installed (Enabled), but don't touch it. It is already working. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1290460 Title: Mythbuntu Installer Crashes: File "/usr/lib/python3/dist- packages/mythbuntu_common/vnc.py", line 58, in create_password ValueError: Password should be passed as bytes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythbuntu-common/+bug/1290460/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
