This is strange, because this HUB was working and actually just the USB sound card is connected and a Microsoft Nano Transceiver for Mouse ... but with and without it, is the same

---

I have reinstalled it and the idle CPU usage is now 90-92% ... so not much better

See these two threads, it isn't a XBian thing it's a general Raspberry issue:

What about without the USB soundcard?

[mariuscotan]

thanks for the links, i will have a look.

Actually i have nothing connected to the usb and i have made a fresh install of the last stable xbian version. I still have 100% cpu usage.

With this version it works good: XBian_2015.02.07_rpi.img.gz

---

What is i make a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?

---

I switched back to XBian_2015.02.07_rpi and now the idle CPU Usage ist about 10-20%, so much better... and the usb sound card, an 4 port usb hub + the nano transceiver are working.

There should be a bug at least in the last two versions which i have tried.

Dont do dist-upgrade on XBian. The version you installed is our stable version.

I recommend that you not upgrade for the time being.

What version is the kernel on that build?

Code:

apt-cache policy xbian-package-kernel

This is working good, there is just a little problem with the advanced xbian menu but i think this is a localization problem, the default language was romanian and i switched to english and now some menus have no text/metadata but anything else seems to be ok.

[f1vefour]

You should be able to upgrade anything except xbmc or the kernel.

[mariuscotan]

i keep using the version XBian_2015.02.07_rpi until the last version in fixed

[Skywatch]

I have been forced to do the same thing. I am sure that the devs will find a fix soon though ;-)

So you did upgrade Kodi @Skywatch and not the kernel?

[Skywatch]

I did an Xbian-config update and upgrade. I thought that was all you had to do

Here's what I have.......

Terminal

apt-cache policy xbian-package-kernel
xbian-package-kernel:
Installed: 3.18.8+-1425523930
Candidate: 3.18.8+-1425523930

and of course.....

Terminal

apt-cache policy xbian-package-xbmc
xbian-package-xbmc:
Installed: 14.2~RC1-1426224368
Candidate: 14.2~RC1-1426224368

As others have reported it's unuseable with external audio via USB or I2S... 13.2 works OK, so it's not hardware. 14.2 RC1 has this problem. Kodi.bin is using more CPU% than Gotham xbmc.bin.... Maybe it's just not optimised enough yet?

[agent5150]

Is there a plan to release a Kodi based upgrade for Xbian? All xbmc based packages are held back on apt-get upgrade attempts.
Is there a manual way..this RC3 thread is all over the place with multiple versions rolled into it.

If there is manual upgrade path/how to, please post as sticky or a separate thread with sticky.
