[XBMCLive] Updating XBMC, won't boot (Asrock ION330)

coendeurloo · 2010-02-05 17:00

A friend of mine has updated the XBMC on his Asrock ION 330 to the latest version (using this guide: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=54350 , not the bleeding edge) and his Asrock wouldn't boot anymore, something about incompatible opengl hardware (probably a driver issue?)

Did anyone with an Asrock ION 330 update his XBMCLive system with success? I'd like to know this before I try it myself Smile

I got the same error until i added the nvidia ppas and updated the driver to 195.30 Smile

. I think i read somewhere that the latest svns use libvdpau2 but i could be totally wrong.

So i added the xbmc svn ppas and the nvidia ppas then did the following:

apt-get update
apt-get -f dist-upgrade (after reboot i got the error) then:
apt-get install nvidia-glx-195

Once done i could reboot back into xbmc. I dont know if this is the correct way to go about it but it worked for me Big Grin

Maybe a silly question, but where do I add the nvidia ppas, and where do I find those? I presume they should be added to the sources.list?

I get this after upgrading the whole lot:

Code:

root@XBMCLive:~# apt-get install nvidia-glx-195

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree

Reading state information... Done

E: Couldn't find package nvidia-glx-195

I added these as source:

Code:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu karmic main 

deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu karmic main

Edit, nevermind, i now added these as source as well:

Code:

deb [url]http://ppa.launchpad.net/nvidia-vdpau/ppa/ubuntu[/url] karmic main 

deb-src [url]http://ppa.launchpad.net/nvidia-vdpau/ppa/ubuntu[/url] karmic main

Edit: this worked like a charm, thanks!!!
