RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - kbriggs346 - 2013-01-30 thanks for the help i appreciate it. Re: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - Quiptix - 2013-01-30 Eventually I moved on to Openelec. Despite my good knowledge of Linux systems I didn't want to admin something at home. Their Frodo releases quickly follow the officials and suits my hardware perfectly! Vincent RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - lcapriotti - 2013-01-30 Would anyone pls try and add the following lines in file /usr/bin/startxbmcbuntu : Code: count=1 just before the final exec: Code: # Start the LXDE session Tks RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - SkyHead - 2013-01-30 For some reason I cant create "[" and "]" in sudo nano command I'm a newb to linux so dunno how And should I remove the sleep 10 command from /etc/init/lightdm.conf to see if the new fix works by itself?

But adding "and stopped udevtrigger" to the "start on" statement in /etc/init/lightdm.conf helped. As mentioned here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/969489 I'm running xbmcbuntu 12.00 on an AT5IONT-I motherboard, off a seagate momentus xt hybrid drive - I didn't have this problem right after installation, only after 2 or 3 reboots (probably when the SSD cache started working). RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - lcapriotti - 2013-01-31 do you mind to test again increasing the 5 seconds delay to 10 or more? Code: while [ $count -le 5 ] RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - PhilipJ - 2013-01-31 (2013-01-31, 15:43)lcapriotti Wrote: do you mind to test again increasing the 5 seconds delay to 10 or more? well, it seems this script is not even getting executed during boot - I've created a world writeable directory /test/, and put Code: count=1 into /usr/bin/startxbmcbuntu right before Code: # Start the LXDE session and no file has been created in /test/... RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - un1versal - 2013-01-31 Code: count=1 The difference being you touch file before you put stuff inside it. idk Try it. uNi RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - PhilipJ - 2013-01-31 (2013-01-31, 17:58)uNiversal Wrote: That's irrelevant. Redirecting output to a nonexistent file will create the file, ie there's absolutely no need to create it by touch before. try for yourself: Code: echo "foo" >> foo.out RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - un1versal - 2013-01-31 Sure! In this case creating the file via touch will ensure that your original script is actually being executed too which is likely is not. Sorry for bothering, Ill be out enjoying XBMC. uNi RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - PhilipJ - 2013-01-31 (2013-01-31, 18:18)uNiversal Wrote: Sure!

Sorry for bothering, Ill be out enjoying XBMC. it would be created even without the touch In fact, touching the file in that loop would mean its timestamp gets updated 2 times per iteration - first time with the touch, second time with the redirected output. Apart from this, it would have no other effect RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - Vicious - 2013-02-02 The file "/usr/bin/startxbmcbuntu" is for starting the LXDE session, not XBMC so why modify that one? When autostarting to XBMC with XBMCbuntu the process goes like this: LightDM starts, if XBMC is set as the default session in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf then it executes the corresponding file: /usr/share/xsessions/XBMC.desktop This file executes xbmc-standalone (/usr/bin/xbmc-standalone). Either create a new/modify current xsession file that executes a custom script instead of xbmc-standalone or modify /usr/bin/xbmc-standalone. Modifying startxbmcbuntu won't help. RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - lcapriotti - 2013-02-03 oops, brain cells did not serve me well xbmc-standalone is the way to go then RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - apeg - 2013-02-03 for anyone having this problem, this did the trick for my Veriton N282G Quote:sudo nano /etc/init/lightdm.conf Quote:start on ((filesystem The bold line is what to add and where Good luck, -aPeg RE: XBMCBuntu Frodo RC - AE: Error - no devices found - fasteddy - 2013-02-04 Interesting, I added a 10 second delay, but I'm not thrilled about that kind of a hack. I'll try the line about udevtrigger. Any idea why this works (assuming it does)? |
