only some answers...

harryzimm Wrote:1) No wakeup from suspend using a usb keyboard
is this possible with the Revo (and the standard Revo keyboard)? if this is possible i must look whats wrong.

harryzimm Wrote:2) I cant get 5.1 pcm to work without a custom /usr/share/alsa/cards/HDA-Intel.conf. Without this file the channel mapping is screwed. Unfortunately its the only way i get smooth playback. Dolby and dts work fine using passthrough.

3) I put my asound.conf in /storage/.config but navigation sounds wont work. This is probably related to the HDA-intel.conf mentioned above.

i am working on the sound things... i hope i can solve some problems...

harryzimm Wrote:4) I renamed samba.conf.sample to samba.conf, but i cant see the shares on my network?

hmmm. can you see the shares if you point manuall to the ip of your system? i know there are some problems with the share names.

you must only rename the samba.conf.sample if you add your own shares, the same samba.conf as the sample will be used by default. only if you rename the samba.conf.sample this config will be used, instead the system default

harryzimm Wrote:Other than those things its really promising. Btw i still dont get a network connection using my asus motherboard. XBMC just reports it as not connected.

do you can start anouther linux live system and can send me the output from 'lsmod' and 'lspci -v'? maybe i must add an additional network driver. or do you know if the asus board uses the same driver as the revo?

harryzimm Wrote:Im really excited about the emulator part and politely request a snes emulator Smile

ok, i will add an snes and some other emulators in the future

Yeah its possible, just tested with another install with the default keyboard.

I deleted the samba.conf and rebooted but still i cant see the computer in network on my desktop. I also tried to mount the share using the ip but that didn't work either. Is there a command to restart samba or to check it is running?

you can connect with ssh to the box: (username: root / password: openelec)

with
Code:
ps
you see the list of processes, look if there an smbd process.
to kill the process:
Code:
kill <processid>
or
Code:
killall smbd

you can start samba again with
Code:
sh /etc/init.d/42_samba

also the /var/log/messages is usefull for me, if samba is started

harryzimm Wrote:No problem, here is the output

ok, this driver is not added in the ION images, i will add them, thanks. can you test the network with the generic image on this system, there is this driver added.

Yeah i just tried the generic image and networking is all good on the asus. Thanks.

Samba still not working though. I wouldn't be using samba anyway i would just like to get it working Smile. I will check the logs and post them on pastebin a bit later on. It says something about the adress is already in use?

cheers

Hi Harry, can you test this image, if samba works (better):
http://sources.openelec.tv/tmp/image/har...42.tar.bz2
(its only an image for testing. it also includes your needed networkdriver for your asus board - please test this too.)

Information 
Hi all,

i have released the new image (r3675) based on XBMC-Dharma-32342:

Download URL: http://openelec.tv/index.php?option=com_...Itemid=307

some of the changes:
  • some changes to Samba Server and Samba configuration.
  • add support to wakeup from standby with usb keyboards if supported by system (tested on Acer Revo 3600 and Zotac ION ITX)
  • update to the new upcoming kernel 2.6.35 (2.6.35-rc6)
  • switch to XBMC Dharma branch (r32342)
  • add Realtek r8169 Network driver to the ION based images

The problems:
there are some known issues:
  • on some boards no sound is working over HDMI if you want play an game (installed via Addons).
  • resolving of samba server names doesnt work here. samba shares can be mounted (in xbmc and with the netmount.conf) only with ip adresses.
  • vaapi driver is a bit broken, if your system uses VAAPI and any HD video crashes XBMC please switch off VAAPI support in Settings/Video/Playback.

Please test the images and have an nice weekend. Please Report bugs and wishes in our forum and bugtracker on http://www.openelec.tv.
greetings, Stephan

How do I burn the image to a dvd? I tried converting the contents to an .iso, but I can't get it to boot.

openelec.tv Wrote:no, but i have dont looked at this. if you want you can help me to integrate this controller (help means: i integrate this support, you test this support) :-)

Yea, absolutely. Let me know when you integrate it and I'll report back

openelec.tv Wrote:many thanks for this list, i will add some of this emulators, would be nice if you can also help me with testing :-)

No problem, I'll be appy to help test.

In this build, I have some problem: double clicking on remote control.
On keybord - all OK.

Hi Stephan,

Interested in looking at this on appleTv.

I think the specifics for Atv are alsa-driver 1.0.19 and NVIDIA 100.14.19 drivers .

Any chance of adding these so so I can test?

Hi Ryan, why you want an iso? can you try to create an USB installer stick (see: http://openelec.tv/index.php?option=com_...Itemid=305)

if you have problems let me know this :-)
