Ruud, I'm assuming you want the i386 build? If so, you can grab old individual .deb files from launchpad.net. Here's the xbmc-live .deb for the prevous (odk30) build: https://launchpad.net/~lars-opdenkamp/+a...id_all.deb

Alternatively, there are other previous builds here: https://launchpad.net/~lars-opdenkamp/+a...tate=built

Hi Ads_german,
that did the trick, thanks for helping me out
regards,
Ruud

your method doesn't work, unable to install xbmc-standalone due to unmet dependencies?

Code:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  xbmc-standalone: Depends: xbmc-data (= 2:11.0-pvr+odk14~git20110324.28a2544~ppa+odk14~lucid)
                   Depends: xbmc-skin-confluence (= 2:11.0-pvr+odk14~git20110324.28a2544~ppa+odk14~lucid)

any other way?
regards,
Ruud.

Do not install xbmc-standalone and change "/usr/bin/xbmc-standalone" to "/usr/bin/xbmc" in the xbmc.conf should do the trick.

ezechiel1917's advice is the easiest way to roll back, but you don't even need to fully roll back to the previous version of xbmc, only of xbmc-live.

But on each apt-get upgrade you will get an error.

updated packages without uxlaunch are being published, so you better ignore these workarounds and just update to the latest version (odk36) as soon as it's online.

I upgraded to the latest build in the ppa, I was intrigued to see that some old faithful packages are no longer required and now there is this newfangled uxlaunch package. I guess almost inevitably it didn't work and the only useful information in the uxlaunch log was regarding a Consolekit error.

Code:

Error: Unable to open session with ConsoleKit: org.freedesktop.CkConnector.Error: Unable to open session: Rejected send message, 2 matched rules;
type="method_call", sender=":1.6" (uid=1000 pid=974 comm="uxlaunch) interface="org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager" member="OpenSessionWithParameters" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit" (uid=0 pid=1240 comm="/usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon))

I think this means I need to change the user privileges somehow but I'm out of my depth here.

I wanted to answer the OP, since I ran into this after I upgraded to Natty. You can patch ConsoleKit.conf to solve the problem, like this:

Code:
