Does anyone know how you can install an older build from a ppa source?

I added mario-sitz and i would like to install xbmc - 2:11.00~git20110608.f678c5d-0~ppa1~maverick

You can download all files there: https://launchpad.net/~mario-sitz/+archi...r=maverick
And install it with "dpkg -i xbmc*.deb".

Nope doesn't work

dpkg: error processing xbmc-skin-confluence (--install) etc etc

Did you wrote "sudo" before the command?

I just installed ubuntu 11.04 (noob)and tried xbmc install ...it threw errors about missing files and it wouldn't launch...i then tried the unstable path and it launches now but I can't browse add ons and the included skins are broken ...can somebody advise me on how to back out what I've done and exactly to install in order to get a fully functional install ? Thanks a ton in advance

I removed xbmc-live too and created my own autostart script: http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=793...stcount=12

I've tried to follow your instructions but XBMC won't start. If I login and try your command then XBMC starts fine:
su xbmc -c "startx /etc/X11/Xsession /usr/bin/xbmc-standalone"

I tried to remove xbmc-live but it said it wasn't installed, so I did remove-auto to get rid of the packages linked to it, but I still get this in my /var/log/syslog:
XBMCLive init: xbmc-live main process (1008) terminated with status 2

I don't see anything in the xbmc.log so it looks like it doesn't get far enough to start it.

Any help to get it starting again would be great as my family are about to rip my throat out for breaking XBMC.

The autostart script didn't work because the xbmc.conf
file is not in /etc/xbmc.conf

It must be in /etc/init/xbmc.conf

I didn't have that file after the nightly upgrade so just go into that folder
trough terminal and do a:
sudo nano xbmc.conf and paste the script into the empty file and
save it. reboot and voila xbmc autostarts

You can't believe how much i love you right now

Sorry, my fault I haven't seen that!

I have corrected my post.

That fixed it for me, just moved /etc/xbmc.conf into /etc/init/xbmc.conf

Thanks!

you need to force the xbmc-data and xbmc-skin-confluence

refer to here http://x3webworx.wordpress.com/2011/03/0...nd-beyond/

it has the commands that sort the unstable ppa packages install...

in your case you cd (change dirs) where your packages are located...

I have been trying to get nightlies working again but am having some trouble. I have made multiple attempts to get it working but each time I get this error during the end of the install:


Setting up xbmc-standalone (2:11.00~git20110625.e1a0b08-0~ppa1~lucid) ...
Processing triggers for libc-bin ...
ldconfig deferred processing now taking place

I can use the resulting installation but it crashes immediately if I attempt to play a music file. Can anyone advise me as to what I can do to get the installation to go through without the issue above?

Thanks

Does anyone know if there's a ppa with dharma 10.1 + bluray support ?
