RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - wsnipex - 2012-07-25 [ 2931.953642] [fglrx] ASIC hang happened [ 2931.953665] Pid: 4921, comm: xbmc.bin Tainted: P O 3.2.0-27-generic #43-Ubuntu [ 2931.953673] Call Trace: there you go, read back this thread for info. in short: fglrx issue or _very hard_ to track down xbmc problem if you find a way to reliably reproduce it, please let us know how RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - Jan0sh - 2012-07-26 jea its reproducable. play music, turn of tv ... RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - guilmxm - 2012-07-26 Hi, @fritsch and @FernetMenta, Thks for your answer, this bug is very boring and in my case hard to reproduce, sometimes it happens all day after a fews hours running idle, and sometimes the system seems to be more stable and thos bug does not occur any more ^^ (hits occurs generally during the night when the TV is off) I've upgraded to 12.6 Catalyst the system seems stable for now , my "dirty" workaround is to implement a simple shell script watchdog that will reboot the system (this is anyway the lony solution) when ASIC bug happens...(so watching for this pattern into kern.log) dirty but works. I'll try to get more traces next time it happens. @Jan0sh, i'll try the same as you and will tell if the ASIC bug occurs RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - Jan0sh - 2012-07-26 today no ASIC while playing music with display of, xbmc did crash anyway (but was kill- and restartable via killall ): xbmc.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/1112465/ I'll try to reproduce the situation described above and update this post with crashlogs. Edit 1: it happened again. no crashlog nor useful informations on dmesg RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - fritsch - 2012-07-26 @Jan0sh: This Crashlog shows a bug that is already fixed in master. No Asic hang. Fix is here: https://github.com/FernetMenta/xbmc/commit/852951b500a84527bc0524f2c0857b7d72c07ed8 Edit: wsnipex already built packages with this fix, they are in the testing repository. RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - BenvanDamme - 2012-07-26 sorry.... false post... please delete RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - EazyVG - 2012-07-27 @guilmxm Did you install 12.6 driver on xbmcfreak edition? If so, can you please give the exact commands you used to update the driver. @wsnipex I noticed that the fglrx that comes with xbmcfreak edition (latest v2 in this case) are dependent on xbmc and xbmc-bin packages, so do I remove them all first (xbmc + fglrx packages) and then install 12.6 and reinstall the xbmc packages. I have built a nice system for myself (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=136778) running xbmcfreak and I am thankful for your awesome work.

I have the frode release running on ubuntu 12.04 I also notice the lowest xmbc load i've ever had, xbmc is idle-ing at 2-4% cpuload. Very nice, thanks for the good work only thing now is fixeing is what i see in powertop, if needed, i dont know.

This post should be put as sticky on Linux support forum and/or added in first post of this thread. I am quite sure there are many who keep on asking this specific question. (2012-07-27, 09:11)guilmxm Wrote: @EasyVG Cool, I am also facing this problem on my notebook with older AMD HD graphic chip and the link/instructions provided are very much what I have been searching on the net. Hope that my latest AMD Fusion (A6 with HD 6530D) will not have this "not supported" issue. Thanks.a RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - fritsch - 2012-07-27 @EazyVG: I have updated the howto above to include instructions for legacy driver. wsnipex has added it to the front page. Btw. If someone has a real good idea on how we could make this thread more readable. I would be thankful.

Thanks again for the howto. RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - erhnam - 2012-07-27 I created a new XBMCbuntu livecd based on the images from a few days ago. If you're interested you might give this a try: http://www.xbmcfreak.nl/en/xbmcbuntu-12-04-with-pre-frodo-end-july-release/ RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - wsnipex - 2012-07-27 @ernham: you probably should switch to the stable ppa xbmc-xvba it has the same features as testing, but only gets verified packages. Testing can always contain major bugs, as its build directly from master without prior tests. We still appreciate advanced users on testing helping us track down bugs, but for the average guys it might break stuff. |
