hello

I have installed Eden. on ubuntu 11.10. I installed everything. xbmc, xbmc -live xbmc-Stalone.

But now I can not start or stop the service XBMC-live as before.

sudo / etc / init.d / xbmc-live stop

sudo / etc / init.d / xbmc-live start


-------------------
sudo / etc / init.d / xbmc-live stop

Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service xbmc-live stop

Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the stop(8) utility, e.g. stop xbmc-live


----------------------

xbmc@mediacenter:~$ sudo service xbmc-live stop
stop: Unknown instance:



someone can help me. thanks

Is xbmc-live listed in /etc/init.d? And how about in /etc

Try:

sudo service lightdm stop

sudo service lightdm start

This has changed as of Ubuntu 11.10.

i have same problem which is described in the tpoic.

lightdm stop => stop:unknown instance

service --status-all marks lightdm AND xbmc-live with [?]

i want to stop XBMC / X-Server for update graphicsdriver, but dosn't work in this way.
at the moment, i use the hard-way an change into run level 1, but this is realy not a nice way -.-

some ideas where the problem could be?

Some information about my system:
Ubuntu 11.10 - minimal installation
- LAMP
- SMB
- XBMC (repository release, 11.0 "Eden")

I thought xbmc-live was deprecated on eden.

I'm using this script on my minimal 12.04 setup, I never installed xbmc-live.

lightdm is launched by upstart:
sudo stop lightdm
