[SOLVED] Can not access GUI after config

[akash]

Hi there,
I've been playing with this issue for a couple of days and I'm at a loss. I'm starting to think there may be something wrong with my Pi.

I've installed Xbian 1.0.4 without any problems, and gone through the configuration without any problems. However, when I exit the config, the Pi just sits on a command line and does not start up any GUI.

Typing 'xbmc' gives the following error:

Terminal

xbian@xbian:~# xbmc
sh: 1: glxinfo: not found
XBMC needs hardware accelerated OpenGL rendering.
Install an appropriate graphics driver.

Please consult XBMC Wiki for supported hardware

xbian@xbian:~#

I've also tried typing /etc/init.d/xbmc start as suggested by someone on the IRC channel, but that doesn't do anything:

Terminal

xbian@xbian:~# sudo /etc/init.d/xbmc start
xbian@xbian:~#

I've installed the Download package from the config and I can access the various programs through my network running on the Pi; so it's obviously capable of some things.

I've also tried both Raspbmc and Raspbian (wheezy) - both of them give me weird similar problems too. Essentially they will not start up any GUI.

I've tried Xbian with 2 different SD cards, two different SD readers, and on 2 computers (both Macs). I've installed the image manually using dd because the XPi installer tool doesn't work for me; it crashes (I've tried with both Xbian 1.04 and 1.03 and Raspbmc).

Could this be a power supply issue? I am running the Pi of an iphone charger. At the moment I don't have any other charger I can test it with.
