Xbian still my favourite RPi OS
Hi guys
This weekend my XBian 1.0 Alpha5 system died (partially). :/ I was able to use XBMC and watch videos etc, but I could not SSH, print, access network shares or access transmission/NZBGET/SICKBEARD through their web interfaces. I tried rebooting, but that didn't help. I'm not sure what happened, but I suspect it had something to do with the number of torrent files that were active at the same time (maybe 10 - 15 torrents downloading/seeding?). It was the first time I had that many going at once. The RPi was set to the default XBian overclock settings. Anyway, I thought I would see what the other OS options were like... OpenElec was a no straight away as it can not be set up as a print server. With Raspbmc, I had DPKG errors during the installation of CUPS and it would freeze on the last frame of a Youtube vid for around 10s before going back to the XBMC menu. Irritating. I ended up coming back to XBian. I had no problems with any of the items on my install check list. The NZBGET/Transmission/Sickbeard etc download packages are awesome! They make my life much easier. Everything is working again! I plan on making a backup image of my SD card once I get home this evening so that I will be more prepared for the next time my RPi gives problems. I already have a list of steps and commands necessary to repeat my install. Thank you to everyone that has contributed to XBian. I have really enjoyed working and playing with it. Keep up the great work! |
