View Full Version : XBMC freezes when exitting, selecting reboot, or changing skins (logs inside)
I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 and XBMC-VDPAU SVN and I'm having a bit of a problem:
Whenever I select Exit XBMC or Reboot inside XBMC it freezes.
Here is a log when I selected reboot: http://pastebin.com/m26385e1d
Here is a log when I selected exit xbmc: http://pastebin.com/m4627f009
The last line in both logs is:
21:22:40 T:3051902784 M:1162969088 NOTICE: unload skin
XBMC also seems to freeze when I select a new skin. Here's a log of that: http://pastebin.com/m77e316e8
The last line is:
21:24:04 T:3053012800 M:1195372544 INFO: delete old skin...
I've tried searching the forums but I can't seem to find an answer to this...

Please see the sticky about posting problems in a useful manner. We need stack traces when a crash occurs. If xbmc is frozen you can generate a core file by doing "killall -SEGV xbmc.bin" in a terminal.
UPDATE:
Actually, that command (killall -SEGV xbmc.bin) isn't doing anything (eg. the process stays alive), but I do have some more information:
Everything in XBMC works fine until I resume from a suspend (S3). After I resume, XBMC freezes when trying to exit it, or tell it to reboot, or change skins. It also freezes a second or two after I start playing a video or doing almost anything.
If I switch to a terminal (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and do "ps axu | grep xbmc.bin", the CPU usage for xbmc.bin slowly climbs until it maxxes out at 100%. The ram stays around 5% though.
I've also tried "sudo killall -SEGV xbmc.bin" and it doesn't work either. (eg. the process stays alive) However, "kill -9 <pid>" works but doesn't generate a core file.
By the way, I'm using XBMC-VDPAU with this build information: XBMC PRE-9.04 SVN:18172
Last bump. If nobody can help me then I'll just resort to not using standby/resume. :(
By the way, I'm using XBMC-VDPAU with this build information: XBMC PRE-9.04 SVN:18172Do you know if it happens with a stable, or maybe from the main SVN trunk?
Thanks for the reply!
I've tried the linuxport trunk SVN a couple of nights ago and I had the same problem unfortunately.
I'd blame Ubuntu, but only XBMC freezes when I resume. (eg. I can Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get into a terminal and everything works just fine)
