Excellent Christmas present! Thanks for your efforts topfs2. I have your helix_headless branch running perfectly on ubuntu 14.04.1. In fact I'd just done the same for Helix rc3 days before, so the process was fresh in my mind.
If it helps others, I documented steps taken from initial build to running kodi.bin as a background process. Here's a link to the Evernote doc. Apologies, it's a bit rough as was just a brain-dump and not meant for public consumption, but I figure might as well share as those in this thread will be able to fill in any errors or gaps in the process.
Happy to provide logs of kodi running. Just let me know what you need.
Regards,
overbyrn
I've just managed to compile successfully using your instructions It seems to work fine although i have 1 problem. It keeps starting the webserver on port 80. I can't run it on that port as i run a apache. When i try to change the port in guisettings.xml it doesn't do anything. Is this set somewhere else in headless mode?
