Hi,
when I call XBIAN setup in XBMC, the screen shows at last "Loading packages, Initialize" and then goes back to the main screen.
I have installed the 1.0b2 as an upgrade over b1.
The xbian-config in the console works fine.

The Log shows this:

how your /etc/apt/sources.list look like ?

can you from console do

The sources.list:
deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi
deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt wheezy main

xbian-config->packages shows only "Loading package database dialog" and nothing else.

@guennti

can you confirm you have latest package of xbian-package-config-shell ?

probably a quick fix is to change the "deb mirror …." to "deb http://xbian.brantje.com wheezy main"


but proper fix was already issued as upgrade to this package.

# apt-get install xbian-package-config-shell

xbian-package-config-shell is already the newest version.

2.1.6-52g ?

Yup:
xbian-package-config-shell 2.1.6-52g

Code:

dpkg-query -W xbian-package-config-shell

then correct the sources. i tried now with "mirror" and is ok, but this is not guaranteed you get the same host … is possible you get one not in sync .

and this was meant to run from command line, not startt xbian-config GUI from command line

This works!

thanks confirming this.

keep it like that.

I seem to have a similar or the same problem:


I can run xbian-config, update the package list and upgrade packages from the shell as well.


Anything else I can do?

I have the exactly same problem. Did same steps but nothing helped so far

Hi,
my sources.list looks like this:
deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main non-free rpi
deb http://apt.xbian.org stable main

Maybe this helps?

Tried your values, still doesn't work though. I just noticed that there's a new update to xbian-update available, maybe that helps, gonna try that now.
