Black screen on high-res screen
#1
Hello,

I was searching for a powerful and good-looking media center system, and I found XBMC, which fits more than I could hope. So first of all, thank you everyone! Smile

So there is the problem: I installed XBMC Live on a USB Key (via the wizard), to load it on a first gen EEEBox, the one with an Atom N270. After testing, it works great on my TV, but when connected on my PC screen, I get a black screen after the "loading dots".
I looked at the log, there is only this error related to graphics :
ERROR: GLX: Same window as before, refreshing context
I saw the <resolutions> contents in guisettings.xml, and i tried to remove everything but the 640*480, but this file seems to be regenerated at startup. I also tried to modify some boot options in grub, but nothing works, I always get this black screen.

In case it could be usefull, my screen is the Samsung 2343BW, which a native resolution of 2048*1152.

Please, say me you have an idea! Nod

Regards,

Foaly

Is there a way to load XBMC in a low-graphic mode, to disable resolution detection, or to force the resolution at loading?

Thanks
