Hello All

I try to run freevo on my Linux only xbox with the framebuffer device but I just get a black screen as soon as freevo starts. The box is still alive because I can ssh into it.

It is a Version 1.1 xbox. Did anybody manage to run freevo with the fb device?

media1:~# cat /boot/linuxboot.cfg
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.31-xbox
append root=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part2 devfs=mount kbd-reset xbox=hdd video=xbox:640x480,hoc=5,voc=10
xboxfb y

media1:~# cat /etc/freevo/freevo.conf
chanlist = us-cable
display = fbdev
geometry = 640x480
lsdvd = /usr/bin/lsdvd
mplayer = /usr/bin/mplayer
renice = /usr/bin/renice
setterm = /usr/bin/setterm
tv = pal
version = 2.1

Any advice are welcome :-)

Regards, Thomas

Hi Thomas,

you'll need to send the output from your logs.

Hello John

Here is the output on the command line:
media1:~# freevo
WARNING: duplicate plugin activation, ignoring:
<audio.detach None None>

config.py (518): Logging to /tmp/freevo/main-0.log
Error: VIDEO_SHOW_DATA_DIR not found
ROM_DRIVES: Auto-detected and added "('/cdrom', '/dev/cdrom', 'CD-1')"
config.py (903): Using 'latin-1' encoding
freevo: could not connect to socket
freevo: Connection refused
WARNING: Could not initialize PyLirc!

And here the logfile:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Freevo start at Wed Feb  8 21:54:22 2006
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WARNING: duplicate plugin activation, ignoring:

I see an error about VIDEO_SHOW_DATA_DIR but I cannot find this variable in the local_conf.py file?

Some more info: After killing freevo, the screen stays black. I have to reboot to get the prompt back.

Regards, Thomas



Hi Thomas,

you'll need to turn on debugging. Set DEBUG=9 and CHILDAPP_DEBUG=9 in your local_conf

John
