I recently upgraded xbian to install kodi krypton alpha 2. Everything was perfect but then i realised there is no network tab or setting which could list the available wifi . I know it's a testing version but i would really like to have that feature. Please help me out of this Huh
This is not Krypton issue

I tested a bit and found two issues, but they occur under special circumstances only:

1) if a very long wpa-psk key is used, network settings are greyed out completely [1]
2) Search for WLAN networks works only if wlan device is last in the list of networks

You can check list of network devices by issuing command

Terminal

sudo xbian-config network list

[1] already fixed and uploaded new package xbian-package-config-shell
I appreciate your help,
I can run it in the background but Iam not that good with the front end so Iam not able to create a dedicated tab which could list all the available wlan's. Also I would like to know if Xbian is planning to release the krypton alpha 2 anytime soon with all the features?
Sorry, I absolutely do not understand what you want to have HuhHuhHuhHuhHuh

Where do you want to create a dedicated tab?

What features do you mean?

Sorry for that. Sad I'll give you a brief.

I installed Xbian latest version which comes with kodi jarvis 16.1 on raspeberry pi 3, then I upgraded it using the command "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade" . Now there is no option from where i can select the available wlan's. This feature is available in libreelec. Iam providing you the screenshot below for a complete understanding. Please note that before you crossfire me asking to shift to libreelec as it already has the feature i would like to clear that Iam a Xbian fan and iam not planning to migrate.
(note: Image is provided only for reference.)

When you click the "libreelec" tab, you get a list of available wifi's at home. I just want to have this on Xbian.
Ok, understood Idea

XBian setting is on a different place

Go to Settings->XBian->System and voila, there you can manage your network settings Shy

HTH
Hey Nachteule,
I have checked it completely and there is no such XBian tab . Yes it was there in Jarvis 16.1 but when i upgraded to Krypton 17 Alpha 2 it just vanished. Sad
Is there any other update through which I can get this option ?? Huh
Uhh, my fault. I have this patch only on my local dev system Sad

Yes, there is an alternative: click Addons tab and then under Program addons you will find XBian-Config
Could you please share your code with me? If you dont mind. Iam in real need of this
Sure

VOILAH........It worked.
Thank you so much, you've been so helpful Smile Xbian rocks.
Nice to hear. Thanks for your feedback Smile
Can i ask you for one more favour? I want to find the location of Xbian logo, i have my own customised favourite logo which i want to display wherever the Xbian logo is.
Do you mean logo in splash screen?

It is in package xbian-package-splash and stored in folder /usr/local/lib/splash

HTH
Yes, the one on the splash screen.
I found the logo in /usr/local/lib/splash and replaced it , but it just replaces the "X" part of logo, the other yellow background still exists. Sad
