GeexboX 2.0 running from CD, this hardware:

Athlon 2100+
ASUS a7n266-vm (nforce)
Radeon 9200 (rv280)
512 Mb DDR2

Selecting Video, Programs, Pictures or Music results in GeexboX logo flashing on screen, followed by XBMC home screen.

XBMC Live runs fine on this box, other than some choppy video playback, which I’m hoping GeexboX will fix.

delete /root/.xbmc
this is fixed with devel-iso

Thanks, that does fix the issue (no sound though, I’ve started another thread for that). I assume that this only occurs on some hardware configurations ?

As I posted in the devel thread above, I can’t use r13600 as I just get a black screen on my hardware.

please use the last one and if’s already the case, join Xorg.0.log located in /var/log
(http://download.openbricks.org/geexbox-devel-20111219-r13629-i386.iso)
Thanks

Tom, I’m trying to install to HD so that I can help with debugging. I want to install 2.0 first as the MCE remote works with it.

How can I permanently delete /root/.xbmc in a HD install ? I think I’m running persistent, but /root/.xbmc doesn’t stay deleted after reboot.

adapt a script
maybe editing /usr/lib/xorg/xorg-post-start
line 31, add :
rm -R /root/.xbmc

but your personal settings, wont be saved …

with the last devel iso , you can try :
opkg remove eventlircd
opkg remove v4l-utils
reboot
your remote should work
