XBMC no longer launching

[Glave]

I followed the wiki and did the minimal install which has xbmc auto launch. I did use the ppa's, and decided to update just now. apt-get upgrade and then rebooted, xbmc doesn't load now.

I see the X mouse cursor pop up briefly, then its dumped back to console. The only error I've found so far is in Xorg.0.log.

FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing.

I changed my samba shares in the meantime between updates, but I don't think this would be causing it to crash on me. xsession-errors shows that it dumped

Xsession: X session started for xbmc at Sun Apr 5 00:14:05 CDT 2009
Fatal error encountered, aborting
Error log at /usr/share/xbmc/temp/xbmc.log
The XBMC_HOME environment variable is not set.
Aborted (core dumped)
Xsession: X session started for xbmc at Sun Apr 5 00:14:37 CDT 2009

However, I do not have a /usr/share/xbmc/temp/xbmc.log. I do have /var/tmp/xbmc-xbmc.log but its last update was right before I updated and rebooted, so nothing useful there.

We're going to need a lot more info than that.

If you're having trouble starting X, please visit ubuntuforums.org.

If X is fine but xbmc won't launch, please start by posting a debug log.

They're located at ~/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log for new builds, /var/tmp/user-xbmc.log for older ones.

This is the only information I have thus far, and it doesn't make much sense. Xorg.0.log only has that 1 error in it, which does not seem to be a fatal error. I do see my X mouse cursor briefly but that's it.

I don't have ~/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log, but I do have /var/tmp/user-xbmc.log. It hasn't updated since I did apt-get update though, so there's no other information about what could be happening.

My ~/.xsession-errors shows the core dump and that there's a fatal error, but I don't immediately see what the cause is.

Fixed. My .xsession seems to have become deprecated since my last update. Found my solution here: http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=46800&highlight=XBMC_HOME
