Works like a charm this far, Curlymo.

One thing I did notice was the OC @ 840MHz, while the default speed is actually 900 Wink

Also, no kodi.log or xbmc.log at the normal location.

I'm on it in few hours as it finally arrived today Wink

A little off topic, but what is the new max clock speed for this SoC ?


RE: RPi 2 Quad core. - hrabeX - 7th Feb, 2015 05:41 AM

pi2 consumes more power than B model - all my powered USB hubs cannot juice Pi2 and external USB 2,5 drive together as with old B Sad

In internal tests they were able to reach 1100-1200 for the ARM, so the same as the Pi 1, but 4 cores instead of just 1.
(The more threads you put on a single core, the worse it will perform.)

Have Fun Smile

Hi,

after compiling Tvheadend on the PI2 the DVB driver look's have an issue when I try scaning a transponder.

It's look like a charm on my BananaPi or Raspbian on PI(B).

So it's still in dev, I'm agree.

Where could I report bug for XBIAN PI 2 devel ?

It is working for me quite well.

One small thing when you enter the xbian settings, the menu on the left is blank, sill usable just have to click on each blank menu item to find setting (i needed to add MPEG2 license)

Connected to my TVheadend server (NAS) fine and is a lot more snappier for watching live TV. Big Grin


RE: RPi 2 Quad core. - rikardo1979 - 7th Feb, 2015 06:47 PM

cant make it work here at the moment. I think its related to my MicroSD card but unfortunately I have got only this one here. damn


RE: RPi 2 Quad core. - igorkulman - 8th Feb, 2015 03:55 AM

My RPi 2 went down, showing a kernel panic message on the screen. Never happend on RPi B. Is there any way I can get some kind of log from somewhere and report it?


RE: RPi 2 Quad core. - Dave400 - 8th Feb, 2015 04:14 AM

Bearing in mind my old Pi was an early 256MB model B, I always found that to be a bit laggy, so the speed and responsiveness of the pi2 with the fresh image was awesome.

Now, I don't know if the backup of the old pi also changed the default kernel settings as it was just sitting on 'starting xbmc' for maybe 20 mins before I gave up and reimaged with win32imager.. I'm going to go along on the basis that it's best to start from scratch again.

I too noticed the xbian setup menus are blank, not too much of a biggy.

If I notice anything else I'll post accordingly

Pastebin /proc/last_kmesg

What is your power supply rating?


RE: RPi 2 Quad core. - swordfish6975 - 8th Feb, 2015 09:13 AM

I was getting the little rainbow colored square in the corner, turns out the power adapter i was using was not good enough.

Picked up this beast and its powering my xbian pi 2 and my original pi with volumio without skipping a beat.

I believe that black fields in XBian config is due to latest changes in Confluence Skin code of Kodi
Is this right @belese ?


RE: RPi 2 Quad core. - CurlyMo - 8th Feb, 2015 06:16 PM

@rikardo1979, yes. It's already preliminary fixed in the latest xbian-package-config-xbmc. It at least now works again, but needs the eye of an expert @belese Smile

thanks for clarification and confirmation, appreciate
So now all know what is it and there are people looking into this Wink
