[TASK] Wiki FAQ

[IriDium]

Please use this thread for any issues relating to the Wiki FAQ or the XBian FAQ

This can include omissions, errors, updates or additions.

If possible, if you have an idea for a FAQ to include, then add it to the Wiki FAQ rather than adding it here.

Can the FAQ use something similar to code tags? It currently looks terrible when apt-get...etc..etc is simple text.

hmm, by quick look only block quote can be used. looks better than without but its not ideal
look in "The APT repository at xbian.brantje.com seems to be unreachable" section

I have tried various options HTML options like <code> </code> but none seems to work except that <blockquote>

Isn't there a problem with the answer to the first question?

Quote:The APT repository at xbian.brantje.com seems to be unreachable

Is says this:

Quote:3. Then run these command:

Code:

apt-get update; apt-get install --reinstall lsb-release xbian-package-repo; apt-get update

The last command shouldn't be `apt-get upgrade` instead?

You need to do the "update" part to get the updated repositories you installed with the package xbian-package-repo. Of course, you can run the "upgrade" after that.

Do not run apt-get upgrade on Xbian.

Use sudo xbian-config for upgrading.

apt-get update is OK though.
