XBMC PKGBUILD for raspberry pi

[raptorred]

Hi I've just done fresh install of the v6hf build and installed the xbmc-rbp-git package, which works fine once the 128 split is used, my only problem with it so far is that during video play back the Linux console is visible behind the playing video, anyone know the cause / fix for this?

I noticed this
Untried-
clear && xbmc
xinit /usr/bin/xbmc
Dirty regions settings make screen crazy
Also xbmc-standalone

[raptorred]

Ok update, xinit works as does clear && xbmc although that seems a bit hacky to me however xbmc-standalone makes no difference, and now I've got X up and running the same problem is still there when running xbmc inside an existing X session although it shows the X background not console, anyone else got the same problem or any idea what the root issue is?

It turns out that for the last month or two, the xbmc-rbp git branch hasen't really been updated, and it turns out it's because the development for raspberry pi now happens in the master branch - and nobody told me!
I've now updated my PKGBUILD to use the master branch, but I've lost my build enviroment, so could someone please test it for me? Get it here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=60530.

So, pretty much just the master has changed, but everything else is the same?

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('chippoke', 'I') tried to cross compile your new PKGBUILD but got an Error while compiling.

This is my modified Version based on your latest Version to cross compile the package: http://pastebin.com/JrhVNUdp

I get the following error message:
configure: error: in `/home/joschka/build/xbmc-rbp-git/src/xbmc':
configure: error: C++ compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
Aborting...

This is my config.log

I've uploaded a new PKGBUILD to AUR which adds a few new dependencies which make it pass the configure step...

Can anybody help ?

I'm trying to use the GPIO lirc-rpi module with XBMC on Arch. I've successfully used it on OpenELEC and wanted to port to Arch-hf.
I dont have deep knowledge but am usually able to bumble about successfully with help from more community expertise.
Ive got the Archlinux-hf-2012-9-18 on the SD card, and installed xbmc-rbp-git.
I followed Arons instructions...(http://aron.ws/projects/lirc_rpi/) for the GPIO IR reciever
The existing lirc binaries are in /usr/sbin(bin) but recompiled ones are in /usr/local/sbin(bin).
I've loaded the module with "modprobe lirc_rpi gpio_in_pin=0 gpio_out_pin=1"
I created my /etc/lirc/lirc.conf file and Lircmap.xml. Executed the recompiled lirc daemon
i.e. /usr/local/lib/lircd -d lirc0
Tested with /usr/lib/irw (ie original irw) and its OK, but no reaction from XBMC !
Im running xbmc –lircdev=/dev/lirc0

Am I missing something, maybe a client library that XBMC uses ??

regards

Andy
