Xbmc on trimslice.jpg

This page tracks the developments in porting MeeGo Tv and applications to the trimslice device from compulab.

See [1] for the latest status of table ux on the device

and current status of XBMC

Current Image

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5715485/trimslice/trimslice.img.bz2

The image above was based on an image created by this kickstart file File:Tablet-armv7hl-tegra2-v02.ks

To install use an SD card (and put it in sticker facing down in the front SD slot of the trimslice). Write the image in the following way : bunzip2 -c trimslice/trimslice.img.bz2 | dd of=/dev/sdX

The easiest is to then use gparted to extend the image to your SD cards size. (the image is made to fit a 2GB SD card).

Default passwords are meego/meego and root/meego. meego is in the sudoers file.

Problems:

  • pulseaudio is broken (use package from here), install using the --ignorearch option to rpm
  • HDMI out is not enabled in xorg.conf (can be enabled using this xorg.conf)
  • 24bit color disabled by default because meego-dm will not start with it, xorg.conf above enables it
  • image has no .ks it's vgrade's filesystem
  • repositories from 1.2-oss are missing replace the version with /latest-1.2/ in .repo files
  • xbmc is broken on that build, just do a zypper refresh && zypper in --force xbmc-gles
  • run 'startx' as the meego user, then from the xterm run xbmc.
  • HDMI audio needs configuring in XBMC, see here
