_0_ thanks for this one!

Thanks for the blackscreen fix!

any ideas on why my external hdd (connected through powered hub) is not being found anymore in alpha4. It worked perfectly in alpha3. I already tried bug fix #3 (and all the other ones :-))

Did you try to edit the /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf and reboot?

yep, I have tried the change in the usbmount.conf but still the mount won't persist... I know this is something really small and stupid.

@concat, can you open an issue on our git? http://www.github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/issues

Hi Curly, It's not needed anymore to open an issue. I have found my mistake. I have changed the fstab and now auto mount works just fine :-)

With what usbmount.conf?

Only this line: FS_MOUNTOPTIONS="dmask=0777,fmask=0777"

What kind of filesystem is on the Ex HDD?

The ext HDD is ext3 (good to use between a mac and a linux system)

@concat, can you change the original configuration file /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf to this:

Code:

ENABLED=1

MOUNTPOINTS="/media/usb0 /media/usb1 /media/usb2 /media/usb3

             /media/usb4 /media/usb5 /media/usb6 /media/usb7"

FILESYSTEMS="ntfs vfat ext2 ext3 ext4 hfsplus exfat"

MOUNTOPTIONS="sync,noexec,nodev,noatime,nodiratime"

FS_MOUNTOPTIONS="-fstype=ntfs,gid=xbian,uid=xbian,umask=0 \

                 -fstype=vfat,gid=xbian,uid=xbian,umask=0 \

                 -fstype=ext2,gid=xbian,uid=xbian,dmask=0777,fmask=0777 \

                 -fstype=ext3,gid=xbian,uid=xbian,dmask=0777,fmask=0777 \

                 -fstype=ext4,gid=xbian,uid=xbian,dmask=0777,fmask=0777 \

                 -fstype=hfsplus,gid=xbian,uid=xbian,umask=0 \

                 -fstype=exfat,gid=xbian,uid=xbian,umask=0"

VERBOSE=no

how does one update from alpha 3?

Through xbian-config or by:

Code:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install xbian-update
