Hi All,

I am still somewhat of a Linux newb and am having trouble getting XBMC running after upgrading to Karmic. When I launch XBMC the main splash screen is displayed, then it quickly goes black then quits back to GNOME. I am unfamiliar with crash logs, but here i where it appears to go south..

Thanks!

I seem to be having the same problem with a clean install of mythbuntu
Ive installed 3 times now and every time same thing.
I install mythbuntu
install nvidia driver (I have a gf4 ti4200 on the machine im playing with)
then add the repositries (the svn ppa's )
update /upgrade
then i sudo apt-get install xbmc
and it installs beta 1 and upon opneing it flashes up xbmc like it should and it then back to mythbuntu desktop.
I tried installing libcurl4 but it still not working
heres the part of my log thats got issues I think

I seem to be having the same newbie problem
I do a clean install of mythbuntu (karmic) from the downloaded iso cd
then install nvida driver 96 ( as i have a ti4200)
then the launchpad svn repositories

then sudo apt-get instal xbmc
and the logo comes up for a second or two then back to the desktop
my full log is here
http://pastebin.com/m71769e96
Its probably something silly
I think it has to do with libcurl 4
I installed libcurl 4 but the the problem remains.
I hope someone has the time to have look!

hmm, you're indeed missing libcurl.so.4 by the looks of it. try fetching the dev package.

i installed libcurl4 but still no joy.....
I removed the svn ppa's and changed to the std ones
i removed xbmc and reinstalled.
and its still doing it.

Same issue here. Just upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic and no luck.
I was hoping a clean install would fix it but obviously it might not.

EDIT : just reinstalled xbmc and it now works. cool.

What was your process for reinstalling xbmc, as I've tried it a few times to no avail...

Thanks!

does it crash for you always? It crashes here randomly, so I'm wondering if it's the same issue..

Install libcurl3 pkg. Don't know why isn't anymore in the dependencies Tongue
