Hi all

I recently dug up my old Acer Revo 3600 again and installed XBMCbuntu 12.0-RC2. It all ran perfectly, also surviving reboots, but today I started up the Revo and XBMC wouldn't start. I pasted the crash log here (http://pastebin.com/3UQngxFy ). Just a snippet (to aid forum indexing/searching) below.

The last things I remember doing last night before shutting down were:
  • Installed new themes
  • Installed some addons
  • Added a new source for Music (until then, I only scanned my movies and TV shows)

I have removed all new themes and addons from ~/.xbmc/addons to no avail. I am not exactly sure how I'd go about removing the Music source, but I doubt that's the problem?

On a side note: On the Ubuntu login screen, I changed my login shell from XBMC to XBMbuntu (expecting to get a default ubuntu gnome environment). I can log in, but then all I get is the XBMCbuntu wallpaper, and a fast blinking grey half-inch line at the bottom (photo further down - hey, took me 20 attempts to catch the time the line would blink ;-)

Any other information which might be relevant, let me know and I'll post that too.
