Change/reset skin from command line? - kruuth - 13th Dec, 2013 03:38 AM

I've managed to box myself into a corner with Amber and I can't get into the settings menu now. Is there a way to reset the skin from the command line or something like that so that I can get back to my settings?

yes, but unfortunately I do not have access to my RPi and I dont remember the exact path and file name. I think you should look into .xbmc/userdata/ and than in one of the .xml file you find which skin is sett as default
you just need to change it for Confluence and you should be back
sorry I cant help better
edit:and I'm not sure I remember the path right to be honest

also I think when you delete your guisettings.xml in userdata folder that should do the trick too

or just remove amber as plugin

Code:
sudo -i
stop xbmc
rm -fr /home/xbian/.xbmc/addons/skin.amber/
rm -f /home/xbian/.xbmc/addons/packages/skin.amber*
start xbmc
