Cannot start xbmc on my 32 bit laptop
#1
I have tried 12, 13.0 and 13.1. None get further than the first display screen before crashing out.

I was only trying xbmc in an attempt to get a reliable UPnP Control Pont on linux (xubuntu 14.04), which I so far failed to find.

I would attach a crash report if anyone is interested, but I cannot find a way to do so. I have copied the 1st bit below:

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is pastebin.com and how do I use it? I tried the url but can make no sense of how it is related to this forum.

If all goes well it's at http://pastebin.com/YUmtb5k1

I haven't created an account there. Every other forum I've used (quite a lot) has a way of adding a local attachment. I'm not too fond of posting such stuff on an even more public forum, but have done so for now in an attempt to be helpful.

try this on the console:
MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=3.0 xbmc

you'll need some luck with that ancient hardware

Well it runs, and not too slow, but the laptop locks up when I exit.

I initially wanted to use it as a UPnP control point. It sees my server OK (minimserver - very good). It unfortunately then uses it's own sort order on the library, which ruins my tag organsiation. I also haven't found a way to select a UPnP renderer (for music),

Still, thanks for getting me beyond the initial crash.
