thanks rm -rf $HOME/.xbmc worked.

Zeqadious, thanks for the PKGBUILD. unzip is required, not sure if for depends or make depends.

Anyone else have weird graphic issues with the latest Alpha4 build in the repo? I have the same behavior on two separate machines here. Reverted to Alpha3 and all was well again. Could be something specific to my setups though so thought I woud ask.

Me too on ATI, compiling svn now to see if its any different.

Zeqadious · 2008-09-01 00:23:48

Alpha4 doesn't work for me either; for the record.

aqtrans · 2008-09-01 02:45:52

+1 for graphics problems on the Alpha4. But the SVN version worked fine.

ould · 2008-09-02 20:52:31

Cool, so it wasn't only me for a change. lol

keep up the good work guys, loving XBMC.

I also had graphics problems with Alpha4 and switched to SVN which works well except that my LIRC remote no longer functions. I'm using the same Lircmap.xml I used with Alpha3 but it seems XBMC is unable to load the file. Anyone else having this problem?

Here is the excerpt of the xbmc log file:

16:39:51 T:3057665904 M:  6946816    INFO: Loading /usr/share/xbmc/system/Lircmap.xml

I had to add 'boost' 'enca' 'cmake' and 'gperf' to the makedeps in Zeqadious's svn PKGBUILD

I've tried installing both xbmc and xbmc-svn from your repository, zeqadious. I get this when starting xbmc:

Any idea what I should try here?

dholt · 2008-09-22 02:18:35

Mine segfaults too but only on the local X display, not the X server (1.3.0) on my mac.. This is whatever revision was checked in yesterday, I'm building rev. 15654 to see if it helps.

Edit: The problem was due to not explicitly setting the amount of video memory in my X config file..

Thank's for a much needed repo.

suolx · 2008-10-16 05:09:50

Hmm...is there repo for x86_64 xbmc versions? I could set up one if needed?

EDIT:

Well...I made repo for my personal usage anyways so feel free to try it out!
Packages are based on zeqadious PKGBUILDS with some adjustments.

Has anyone had any luck with the recent SVN? It just segfaults for me. :-/

Building from http://zeqadious.homelinux.net/arch-lin … /xbmc-svn/ on 32-bit Arch with an AMD Athlon64 1.8GHz, 2GB RAM and Nvidia GeForce 7600GS (with the 'nvidia' drivers).

Me too. I looked on page 2 and used the binary repo from zeqadious

(still trying to config xorg tho )

Zeqadious: I'd hate to be a moaner, but any chance you'd have to time to update to beta 2? Also, if you have the desire to you could upload your PKGBUILD to the AUR and we could vote it up for inclusion in the community repository hopefully around the time 2.1 is released.

[vEX] · 2008-10-19 08:04:05

Recompiled it with debugging and ran it through gdb... it dies on strlen() in libc.. I have no idea why though. :-/

Zeqadious · 2008-10-20 13:58:47

@ luciferin : I'll do another update on xbmc today. Its been awhile since I've upgraded them. As for AUR, I toyed with the idea, but for various reasons I keep neglecting to do it. I'll think about AUR again soon.

Does anyone has high cpu usage with xbmc on i686?
I tried to compile recent svn but with no luck.

[vEX] · 2008-11-16 14:46:43

Here's a modified version of Zeqadious PKGBUILD that uses the stable release:

pkgname=xbmc

pkgdesc="XBMC Media Center"
url="http://www.xbmc.org"

source=("http://downloads.sourceforge.net/xbmc/XBMC-${pkgver}.src.tar.gz")
md5sums=('2d20d255a211223eaa47f1c6bcf4be8e')

build() {
    cd ${srcdir}/XBMC

    # Fix permissions for the configure scripts
    find -type f -name "configure"|xargs chmod a+x || return 1

    # Build XBMC
    ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-halmount --disable-mms --disable-debug || return 1

    make prefix=${pkgdir}/usr install || return 1

    # Fix the shell script

                     ${pkgdir}/usr/share/xbmc/xbmc-xrandr || return 1

    # Menu item
    install -v -D -m644 ${srcdir}/XBMC/tools/Linux/xbmc.desktop \
                        ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/xbmc.desktop || return 1

    for licensef in LICENSE.GPL README.linux copying.txt; do
        mv -v ${pkgdir}/usr/share/xbmc/${licensef} \
          ${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname} || return 1
    done
}

Works for me under 64-bit Arch (Radeon HD3200, but with mesa/libgl), but segfaults on my 32-bit Arch (another machine with Athlon64 1.8GHz and GeForce 7600 using nvidia drivers). Not sure what the problem is with the 32-bit machine, neither betas or any SVN builds have worked either.

EDIT: The reason why it didn't run on my 32-bit install was that xorg.conf had 16-bit as the default depth, changed it to 24-bit and now it's working just fine.

Is this ready for the AUR?

[vEX] · 2008-11-17 20:13:07

I've put it up on AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21608.

Zeqadious, if you want to take over the package just say so and I'll orphan it for you.

Zeqadious · 2008-11-17 20:42:07

lol. I was just getting ready to update my own builds. You beat me to it I guess ...
