Alpha 5 feedback - lemmy999 - 21st Feb, 2013 06:46 AM

Great work fellas. Upgrade seemed to go fine ( albeit with the no-ip.com errors) System has rebooted, love the loading scroll bar. Only problem is my system is stuck with the loading bar at 100% and "loading" still showing. I have tried rebooting ( yes, I know this is not WindowsBig Grin) but it's still the same.

BTW , I tried posting my feedback here but I am assuming that the thread is locked to Admins/Mods. Plaese move this if I missed the official A5 feedback thread.


RE: Official XBian 1.0 Alpha 5 thread - CurlyMo - 21st Feb, 2013 07:06 AM

Can you try replacing the content of /boot/cmdline.txt with:
Code:
dwc_otg.fiq_fix_enable=1 sdhci-bcm2708.sync_after_dma=0 dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 rootwait
Reboot, and share any errors with us.


Alpha 5 libtag.so.1 error - sebvajda - 21st Feb, 2013 07:28 AM

Just to let you know that I encountered the following problem after upgrading from alpha 4 to alpha 5.

I used apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade and rebooted the pi, and after the text output of the boot it just gave me a blank screen.

ssh on the box revealed that xbmc could not start, '/etc/init.d/xbmc start' gave the following error message:

/usr/local/lib/xbmc/xbmc.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libtag.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


I could start xbmc from the ssh shell as root using the following commands:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
/etc/init.d/xbmc start

That works and I now can enjoy alpha 5 in all its splendor Big Grin

I guess I could just edit the xbmc start script and add the LD_LIBRARY_PATH export...

Thanks for reporting


Xbian Alpha 5 - plugins problems - shakinfrog - 21st Feb, 2013 07:45 AM

Hi there! Thanx for bringing xbian out :-)

Just tested out the brand new alpha 5:

An update didn't work, the progressbar got stuck at 100% and no xbmc. Tried a fresh install, and so far it mostly runs fine.

It turned out that most of my beloved plugins either wasn't available, could not get installed due to missing dependencies or did not work when installed. Is there any solution to this problem?

In the mean time I will go back to Alpha 4 where my plugins work.

Best regards
Shakinfrog

What plugings and what dependencies?


libcec.so.2 missing after upgrade to alpha 5 - sebvajda - 21st Feb, 2013 07:54 AM

After upgrading to alpha 5 using 'apt dist-upgrade' I noticed that my TV remote is not working anymore in XBMC.

Checking what might be the problem I'm noticing this:
xbian@redbox:/usr/local/lib# pwd
/usr/local/lib
xbian@redbox:/usr/local/lib# ls -lrt libcec*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 994 Nov 11 18:57 libcec.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root staff 15 Nov 11 18:57 libcec.so -> libcec.so.2.0.0

It appears the libcec is in fact missing in action!
Any advice how to solve? Should I apt-get install something manually?


Failed to download 3 files when getting Alpha 5. - IngoVals - 21st Feb, 2013 07:57 AM

I get the following error when trying to get update with

apt-get update

Those mirrors are down and are removed once you update to alpha 5


RE: libcec.so.2 missing after upgrade to alpha 5 - CurlyMo - 21st Feb, 2013 08:01 AM

Code:
sudo su
cd /usr/local/lib
ln -s libcec.so libcec.so.2

I have rebooted my Raspberry Pi twice and now for some reason the missing plugins are back and working Smile Hurray!

As an example 'MTV.de' and 'NRK Nett-tv' was missing and 'Rockpalast.de' would not install (xbmc said dependencies was missing).

Right, but that will not solve anything as /usr/local/lib/libcec.so.2 does not exist.

The only files matching libcec* on the pi after the upgade are:
Code:
root@redbox:/# find . -type f -name "libcec*"
./usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libcec.pc
./usr/local/lib/libcec.la
