hi there!

i have ubuntu 9.10 and have installed xbmc and xbmc-standalone using apt-get, but when i run it the screen flashes dark and then it crashes!

run from terminal i get:

Code:
dan@ubuntu:~$ xbmc
WARNING: Unhandled message: interface=org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable, path=/, member=Introspect
/usr/bin/xbmc: line 88: 16777 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) /usr/share/xbmc/xbmc.bin "$@"
Crash report available at /home/dan/xbmc_crashlog-20100406_223927.log

the first errors i get in the log are after all the GL bits load are:

Code:
GL_SUN_multi_draw_arrays
22:42:01 T:140027489105936 M:639660032   ERROR: CXRandR::SetMode: asked to change resolution for non existing mode: VGA-0 mode:
22:42:01 T:140027489105936 M:639303680   ERROR: GLX: Same window as before, refreshing context

any ideas?

thanx!
Please post the full crashlog.
I've seen this before, I don't know what causes it and not having debug symbols with filename and line number doesn't help.

Could you install from the svn ppa and see if the issue is still there.
