Hi, I've got a strange problem. I reinstalled my mythbuntu 10.10 yesterday. XBMC was running fine on the last install, so it's not a pc problem. XBMC is now very laggy. I takes me about 30 seconds to change a menu item after selecting it with the remote, even then it doesn't fully load.

Info:
Mythbuntu 10.10 fully updated
Nvidia 290.19.06

When I run xbmc from terminal i get this:

Code:

params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable to open configuration file "/home/peter/.smb/smb.conf":
    No such file or directory
params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable to open configuration file "/home/peter/.smb/smb.conf.append":
    No such file or directory
there is no soundcard

Here's my pastebin.

I know there is a sound card installed, I can see it in the volume mixer. Any thoughts?

Edit: Same thing now.

Had to marked as unsolved as it's doing it after starting xbmc again.

Go into System->Appearance->Skin and set Navigation sounds to none, check if that fixes anything.

I'll try but I usually can't get that far.

Not to be pedantic but I noticed this same behavior when I enabled Settings/ Video/Update library on startup.

Changing the sound card seemed to work. I no longer get lag. I don't have library update set to startup for that reason, I found it to really bog down the machine, so i do it manually. I'll mark this as solved for now.
