RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread - IriDium - 28th Jun, 2013 04:54 AM
@Freddie299: Ref dpkg error. I had seen a similar issue.
If you ssh into the RPi and do sudo apt-get update you will see a msg something like dpkg cannot run and gives a solution.
It's something like sudo dpkg --configure -a
This solves the problem. (It seems to be a corruption of the package DB)
@anonimo200 Alpha 5 did not have any issues with speed. This thread is ONLY for Beta 1

Everything is really really slow, and sometimes playing videos will cause a complete hang of the piI did a update first, and then a complete reinstall from scratch, but the system is still crawling along :/ for instance it took >10 min to install samba...
This is a wild guess, but try the following.
Do a clean install on your SD card. Then open the SD card folder on your PC, so not in your RPi. Open the root partition and modify the config.txt, change core_freq=275 to core_freq=250 .
Then put it in your RPi and see if it changes something.
That didn\t seem to do much... To clarify, the gui runs ok, but every background process is painfully slow, even basic stuff in ssh...
RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread - anonimo200 - 28th Jun, 2013 05:41 AM
In my case core_freq=250 doen't improve anything. Even moving between the menus is really slow...

Can you login to SSH and exit to command line and type the command 'top' to see if and which process is loading your CPU?
RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread - Smultie - 28th Jun, 2013 05:47 AM
I think there's something wrong with either the system time or cronjob.
After every reboot script.xbmcbackup starts performing a backup.... not really convenient.

Yes, I am using the xbian packages, any idea?

I have just upgraded xbian from alpha5 to beta1. It works very fast and good. However, I have a problem with sickbeard. I cant get working it property.
I have investigated and have found this:
xbian@xbian /usr/local/share/sickbeard $ python SickBeard.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "SickBeard.py", line 42, in <module>
from multiprocessing import freeze_support
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/multiprocessing/__init__.py", line 64, in <module>

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/multiprocessing/process.py", line 309, in __init__
self._authkey = AuthenticationString(os.urandom(32))
NotImplementedError: /dev/urandom (or equivalent) not found
It's a problem with /dev/urandom
A temporaly fix is:
chmod 777 /dev/urandom
However, If I reboot xbian, I get the same error again.
Any idea?
Are you using the latest SickBeard compiled for XBian? --> [Part 3] Download torrent & newsserver packages
I am not having any problems so far.

That would be xbmc (or python used by sickbeard when that is running, but system was slow even before i installed sickbeard, and is slow if i stop sickbeard):
1324 xbian 20 0 26404 20m 3352 R 71.8 5.6 0:15.49 python
475 xbian 13 -7 248m 31m 14m S 23.3 8.3 0:26.49 xbmc.bin
Also noted, when doing a reboot, system usually hangs at splash screen saying: init process, and then i need to power cycle.

Good to hear you are up and running. About the remote problem, can you try increasing the remotedelay?

Thanks, that did it!

Seems to me beta1 should be pulled until the major issues can be resolved, no point in countless people hosing a perfectly good alpha5 installation with a partially broken beta.
Just my two cents.

After clean install I cant use my IR reciever like it didnt exist.
Terminal
xbian@xbian ~ $ mode2
mode2: could not get file information for /dev/lirc0
mode2: default_init(): No such file or directory

Update pulled back, please report all issues here https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/issues?state=open (start the issue name wit [BETA1]), Thanks
RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread - Smultie - 28th Jun, 2013 06:38 PM
Good decision imho. The beta just wasn't ready enough.
http://xbian.org/download/ still shows beta 1 though, as do your installers.
Open beta testing next time? I feel most of the bugs could've easily been spotted by a couple of users.
Re: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread - rikardo1979 - 28th Jun, 2013 06:41 PM
is all about the upgrade from Alpha5 not a fresh flash.
Re: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread - rikardo1979 - 28th Jun, 2013 06:43 PM
also this was an open test
as beta means that it is still in testing stage and all should expect that something may go wrong, thats why it is Beta 1.0

Fresh flash gives problems as well. I know, cause I used a new flash.
