there's some strange dependency problem there: the lucid packages are on build 37

also please keep in mind that this thread is meant for discussion about official SVN builds only
this is supposed to fix broken packages on your computer
Code:
sudo killall synaptic && sudo killall aptitude && sudo killall mintinstall && sudo killall software-center
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock && sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock && sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/* && sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin
sudo dpkg --purge $(dpkg -l |grep  ^rc |awk '{print $2}' | tr '\012' ' ')
sudo apt-get -f install && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get --fix-broken upgrade
there's still a problem with x86 jaunty but else than that the SVN PPA is finally filling up like it should!

https://edge.launchpad.net/~team-xbmc-sv.../+packages

some additional packages still missing tho, don't get excited too early. a safe bet would be tomorrow.

don't know what's going on with the stable...

Cool, I notice RTMP dump is on there, would be interesting to know if this is now compiled into xbmc, as have had to a manual build to get it in and use iplayer.

So you're saying that we shouldn't try installing the xbmc build that is currently on the ppa and wait until tomorrow? I'm running Lucid x86 and it says that the package was successfully built.

ive upgraded on karmic and it works fine.
tdw197 Wrote:ive upgraded on karmic and it works fine.

I tried the Karmic build (xbmc-live) It installed successfully but XBMC wouldn't launch after a reboot. I have the latest Nvidia drivers installed.
"xbmc - 2:10.0~svn32696~deb1-1~0lucid2" looks built now.

Has anyone installed this and can verify that it works on Lucid?

Thanks Smile

Try and reinstall the nvidia drivers, I had to do this when upgrading the 1st time from 9.11 to the svn.
tdw197 Wrote:Try and reinstall the nvidia drivers, I had to do this when upgrading the 1st time from 9.11 to the svn.

I reinstalled the nvidia drivers after the first time it booted and xbmc didn't launch. rebooted again and same thing, xbmc.bin isn't running.
geez guys, stop guessing and start looking at the log files to see what's going on.

If it's not starting at all which log file would be the best to look at to see what's going on? Sorry for sounding noobish...

from a ssh session, export the display and run xbmc. you will get output as to why it refuses to run.
