I recently updated my XBMCUbuntu (the latest), and until then everything was working fine.
But now after the XBMC logo fades, the video output just switches to black and white static noise, kinda like how your TV looks when you take out the aerial.
Any ideas on how to fix this issue or what is causing it?
I'm using an ASUS AMD E-350 Zacate, using the built in graphics card.
I'm also using the HDMI interface.

From what i could find, it looks like it failed to start the announcement server. You could check if anything is listening on port 9090.
Possibly try removing libbluetooth-dev (or whatever version number), as it might not exit correctly. Possibly it can't exit the routine properly if the session is empty. Completely skips the routine if libbluetooth is not installed. Or json tries to connect to the sdpd and fails because it's not available.
Or maybe try to change the port in advancedsettings.xml to see if anything else is using it.
Or some nasty proxy something that needs uninstall ipv disable.

Port 9090 (or 9777 which I think you meant) isn't in use according to netstat and removing libbluetooth doesn't seem to have made any different. The advancesettings.xml doesn't have much configuration, and certainly nothing about ports.

Oops, i meant:
userdata/guisettings.xml -> services -> <esport>9777</esport>
Do you have some sort of proxifier installed or something?
Is the log from before the re-install?
And probably nothing but could you in guisettings set:
<updateonstartup>false</updateonstartup>

Okay so after that, I removed my Xorg.conf. This now allows me to progress a little further. I get a a XBMCbuntu login screen which seems to be like a GDM login window. So I tried logging in but it just shows a grey screen and does nothing after that. So I figure my next problem is to get XBMC to load as default again.
