RE: HOW-TO: Automated efficient (dedicated) XBMC installation on Ubuntu minimal 12.10 - roach9 - 2012-11-14
Are there any instructions for upgrading XBMC while using this build?
I'm willing to learn!

tried the script yesterday i must say its works well
it detect all video and sound and my avr processor.... which was good since openelec i always need to use a custom plughw....
the one thing that i can easilly fix is that it did not detect my 2nd hard drive....
is it supposed to mount all drives automatically.....
other wise i need to edit fstab and uid..... to mount...
the other thing that i would like is in the script or a seperate one that installs sabnzbd, sickbeard, couchpotato, and transmission and for them to autostart also.... im not good at script writing but pretty good with following instructions....
Thanx
how to you give rep......

@denist
The script has 0 to do with hdd detection that is something that is handled by the minimal Ubuntu, so when you went past the partinioner on install it should have detected all hdd's if they are internal.
I dont think your going to get this script to handle any 3rd party apps like you suggest.
rep is next to the PM button, but I dont think anyone with less that 100 posts can add rep.

For the life of me, I can't get analog sound working with this (I don't have any extra HDMI ports available on my TV). Everything's unmuted in alsamixer, but I'm not sure where else to look. The Audio output settings in XBMC (Eden) give me a bewildering number of options:
Code:
Custom
Defaults (ALSA)
iec958 (ALSA)
hdmi (ALSA)
HDA Intel - default - 0 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - iec958 - 0 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - hdmi - 0 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - default - 1 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - iec958 - 1 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - hdmi - 1 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - default - 2 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - iec958 - 2 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - hdmi - 2 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - default - 3 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - iec958 - 3 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - hdmi - 3 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - default - 7 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - iec958 - 7 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - hdmi - 7 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - default - 8 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - iec958 - 8 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - hdmi - 8 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - default - 9 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - iec958 - 9 (ALSA)
HDA Intel - hdmi - 9 (ALSA)/proc/asound/cards:
Code:
0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
HDA Intel at 0xfdff4000 irq 44
1 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
HDA NVidia at 0xfcffc000 irq 16The sound works normally when I boot from an Ubuntu Live CD. The sound also works fine with OpenELEC, but I vastly prefer the flexibility of having an Ubuntu back-end. Any help would be appreciated.

We have 0 control on the HDD part, the first part is out of our hands., Suggesting anything is not gonna change the fact we cant do jack about it. However you could have marked the HDD for use,
The script then yes there's is some degree ff control there, and mostly working ok, though a few refinements we have to wait until bram77 is around.
Thank you anyway for feedback

Hey all,
I would be super thankful if someone posted instructions on how to upgrade to Beta 1...
+'s all around!
Please help me!
RE: HOW-TO: Automated efficient (dedicated) XBMC installation on Ubuntu minimal 12.10 - eriqjaffe - 2012-11-15
I actually managed to sort it out - I found this thread on the Ubuntu forums that pointed me in the right direction.
Code:
amixer set 'Front' on
amixer set 'Master' on...and, wham! Sound!
RE: HOW-TO: Automated efficient (dedicated) XBMC installation on Ubuntu minimal 12.10 - un1versal - 2012-11-15
@eriqjaffe
Making sure alsamixer is unmutted is the oldest and perhaps most relevant missed setting in Linux of all
What did it was "amixer set 'Master' on" some ppl also need spdif 1 unmuted
Classic lol
@roach9
Code:
apt-get update && apt-get upgradeuNi
