Broken Open GL or something..
#1
Sad 
I have no idea what happened, i think my problem is something to do with an openGl driver, but its hard to tell, since its really hard to read the error message.

My setup is XBMC installed onto an old computer's HDD, with a Nvidia gfx card, i recently just installed Webmin Via SSH using the Webmin APT repository, and then tried installing samba, restarted the machine, and i get no graphical output, well i do, its a tiny box i can do anything about with an error about that driver issue!

Haven't got a clue where to go from here, since it was all working fine :/

Please Help!

Thanks, Tom.

Edit: Also when i did a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade, Tvheadend got automatically installed from http://www.lonelycoder.com
So that might have had effect....

Edit 2: I can still access the Box Via webmin & ssh.. so thats one thing..

Let's start with a debug log. It'll report something if youre not meeting the minimum OpenGL requirements.

Since you can ssh in, set debug level to 1 from advancedsettings.xml.

Afterwards, start xbmc and let it die. Post the debug log to pastebin.com and a link here.

I couldn't find the find the "userdata" for some reason via ssh, but after some research i saw that sftp was enabled!
I still have the problem, so heres my log - level 1 debug.

Also i booted the system without a display, then plugged in the display, and it outputted at a different resolution, so i could actually read the error this time, so if its any help the graphical error is:
Code:
XBMC needs hardware accelerated OpenGl Rendering.
Install an appropriate graphics driver.

i fixed it!

I followed:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=XBM...repository
And ran envyng, which installed drivers, and did nothing, then i tryed the other method recommend (2), telling me to install my desired version form a massive list, i had, and still have no idea which ones i would have had to install.
The way i fixed this was to use the "nvidia-installer".
Why is this NOT on the wiki!?
Code:
sudo nvidia-installer --update
Solved it all.
