I went back and did a clean install of MeeGo 1.2.0. I saw the crash on the new IVI desktop. Then I modified the /etc/zypp/repo.d to point to where the update testing repo is - http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/1.2.0/1.2.0.0.5.20110709.1/ - and did a zypper update. After that I did an install of ivi home.
Good news - no more UX crashing - so that must have been the graphics bug that was fixed in the update Bad news - ivihome is now a conglomeration of the new UX and the old UX, and there is no easy way to launch a second console (which was the reason I wanted to use ivihome in the first place I don't think that it is worth filing bugs against ivihome - are they on the roadmap to be fixed?

I haven't bothered to look into them yet, as most things seem to be working.

What does "ps axl | grep uxlaunch" say? Are those processes all running? What pids do your console messages have? Main problems I notice in my current environment are flickering of backlight and periodic need to unwedge pulseaudio. WiFi works, nobdy from repos runs, haven't tried bluetooth yet. Camera and HDMI out don't work, but the former doesn't work on the Tablet UX either, and the later doesn't even work with Windows with the one monitor I tried. -- Alison Chaiken (650) 279-5600 (cell) http://www.exerciseforthereader.org/ Spend much time at the cutting edge and you're liable to get cut. _______________________________________________ MeeGo-ivi mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-ivi _______________________________________________ MeeGo-ivi mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-ivi
