opkg upgrade problems

[CuBox UserMember]

Hi,

Just done a ‘opkg update’ & ‘opkg upgrade’ followed by a ‘reboot’ and now xmbc is not displaying on my TV. All I get is the login prompt displayed, but it won’t accept any input. I’ve also tried removing the power supply and restarting from cold with the same results. XBMC is running and operational but with no display on screen.

Original running setup was the upgrade on 5-Oct-14.

Any help would be appreciated

no idea to be honest. it is working fine here with latest snapshot
Are you sure xbmc is running ?
journalctl -a could help a little

[CuBox UserMember]

Weird, xbmc is not showing (at least I can’t see it) in journalctl -a but is showing in ps or top as 640 root {runxbmc} /bin/sh /usr/bin/runxbmc --standalone -fs -l /var/run/

What do I need to do to get xbmc running?

Also, the latest snapshot at http://download.geexbox.org/snapshots/geexbox-xbmc-imx6-cuboxi/latest/binaries.cuboxi/geexbox-devel-20141008-r394d6c2.cuboxi.img won’t boot on my CuBox i4Pro – I’ve tried 2 different SD cards and neither work, yet the previous snapshot works fine. I’ve not tried manually creating the SD card from the tar.xz file just the img file.

Any thoughts?

Regards

[tomlohaveModerator]

hum ….
that’s pretty annoying ..
I have just installed the xz file and it worked fine. (once my first reply)
I can retry later in the evening with the img file.
Can you verify the md5sum for your img file ? It should be : dd74e0f9a159646a448ec31048b5a839

[CuBox UserMember]

Yup, MD5SUM is DD74E0F9A159646A448EC31048B5A839.

I’m not having to much luck tonight with things :'(

However, I’ve reflashed the 5-Oct-14 img and performed the opkg update, opkg upgrade and xbmc now works. If I could only remember what I did to get my remote working and MySQL running…….

[tomlohaveModerator]

that’s a little strange for the update. Anyway , last img file was corrupted. I have deleted it.
For remote, you have just one file to edit.
for mysql, don’t know what you have done exactly, but we have mysql-client & server packages ready if you need them.

Thanks @tomlohave – I’ve got MySQL up and running again just not with the same configuration as before – for some reason it didn’t like the ip address of the MySQL server being specified it wanted 127.0.0.1.

I’m giving up for today – Perhaps a fresh start tomorrow will help.

Thanks for your help
