XBMC black screen - Carpenter - 9th Jan, 2015 05:57 PM

Hi guys,

I've updated the latest updates and since then, after XBMC is started the screen goes black and I can't do anything anymore. The strange thing is that SSH, Sonarr, Couchpotato, etc are still working.

I'm on a RPI B model, LAN cable, regular settings XBMC.log

Did you install all updates after applying the frontpage FAQ?

Yes. Below is my xbian.list and sources.list

Terminal
deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt stable main
### deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt staging main rpi-wheezy
### deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt devel main rpi-wheezy

Terminal
deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi
#deb-src http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi
deb https://apt.sonarr.tv/ master main

Please make sure all lines have a rpi-wheezy line. It's a know bug we are fixing.

Dank je! After changing the lines and running a new apt-get update/upgrade new xbian packages were found and installed. I will check if it's still working when I'm home but I can still curl XBMC after 15 min which looks promising.

...just got the same issue...so happy to stumble on this thread!

applied change to sources.list, indeed several updates pulled, including kernel, xbmc etc.

reboot.
no black screen anymore.

(before it was coming up around 1-2mins from xbmc gui start)

Thanks!!!

I presume your issue is solved now. maybe you can edit your first post and change thread prefix to Solved.
Thank you
