openSUSE Howto UPDATE:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1546145

##### Recent CHANGES ######
- changed to Kodi stable (Helix branch)
- changed to stable openSUSE 13.2
######################

can somebody please confirm that my changes work for openSUSE 13.2? I tested that about a month ago, but now I am on Tumbleweed...

Thanks for the awesome howto; I've used it to install my last three or four xbmc/kodi systems with great results.

I'm wondering if the upstart script could be modified to launch a window manager, like openbox, and then launch Kodi afterward? Since the script uses xinit to launch, I'm not sure what the best way to do that would be.

Trying to get Chrome Launcher and Netflixbmc working and apparently you need a window manager for it to work properly, and it has to launch before kodi does according to other forum posts.

the script even includes a comment on how to do that.

Good time of the day Mr. fritsch.

I believe it's time to remove all stuff related to XBMC from the upstart script.
Do you think so?

[fritsch]

Recheck the upstart script :-) besides the xbmc.conf nothing in there that would still start xbmc.

[fritsch]

I changed everything - have fun with kodi.

In the upstart script it says "default 14.0 gotham". Shouldn't that be Helix?

[fritsch]

Cannot find it - are you sure? :-)

For those with a timeout different from 0 may need a splash image for Grub, I made one (1920x1080) :

Just upgraded Ubuntu to 14.04 and xbmc to kodi, the whole process was not smooth, messed up a bit before I can get everything back to nromal. Would like to verify if the correct set of mesa being installed:

dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/9742311/
vdpauinfo http://paste.ubuntu.com/9742313/
dpkg -l |grep mesa http://paste.ubuntu.com/9742314/

[fritsch]

It seems you still have libg3dvl2 package installed, which still provides your vdpau functionality. Please remove that package so that mesa-vdpau-drivers can be used.

display: :0 screen: 0
API version: 1
Information string: G3DVL VDPAU Driver Shared Library version 1.0

Thanks fritsch.

Should I use "apt-get remove libg3dvl-mesa"? Just want to make sure I won't mess things up again:
