Title: XBMC on TC 6.x
Post by: mika on January 19, 2015, 01:04:40 PM

Hi all,

Is anyone successfull run xbmc on tinycore 6.x ?

I tried to install from 4.x packages but xbmc don't want to run. the application start without interface and nothing, no log, no error also :(
Maybe it's due to old dependencies ? or graphic packages missing ?

Thanks :)
Mika.

Hi mika
Maybe if you run:

Code: [Select]

ldd xbmcit will provide some clues as to what's missing.

Hi Rich,

I already try this cmd and all dependencies are well linked.
I can launch xbmc in a term but nothing append, it just take some cpu (~25% cpu usage).
Do you think new libraries in TC 6 can cause troubles ? maybe build a new package can solve the problem, but I never do this on TC.

Thx
Mika

I get the same thing trying to run it under 4.6.  Have you verified that it works with TC 4 before trying to run it under TC6 ?

No I need the lastest kernel (> 3.16) with iwlwifi driver.
I have a x64 processor, maybe it's also a pb?

x64 processor

what's important is which kernel are you using? 
did I misunderstand or is your wifi not working?

I'm using vmlinuz64 (from /6.x/x86_64/release/distribution_files/)
With this and the firmware, my wifi (Intel 7260) work fine :)

The problem is about xbmc :(
