HOW TO:Provide Logfile - LibreELEC

I'd guess that something is hanging on http requests, but a debug log is the starting point for any investigation. Also include the system journal log as that may show issues with the SD card, if there are any.

There's been progress in the sense that we narrowed the memleak issue down to an area of kernel code and changes we've been testing have a positive overall effect, but it is not resolved. Our aarch64 devices will not move up to beta until things are resolved or considerably improved.

As a general request .. do NOT invent release numbers that don't exist yet. Your 7.95.2 release contains what exactly?

Jester Current investigation shows it's unlikely to be an app level leak, more like something related to memory management in the kernel.

The community build is from escalade; best to post in his support thread to see if there's a driver bump available.

mount -o remount,rw /flash
touch /flash/oemsplash.png
mount -o remount,ro /flash
reboot

I'm not entirely sure whether a zero bytes png causes any graphical issues at boot, but I suspect it just results on no LE boot logo. Worst case you can create a proper all-black png image and deploy that. It will still be squashed up, but you won't see it.

systemctl stop kodi.service
rm /storage/.kodi/userdata/guisettings.xml
systemctl start kodi.service

SSH in and run the above commands. It will drop Kodi back to defaults (skin, language, etc.) and that normally clears things back to a point where Kodi will start, download a load of updated add-ons, which normally resolves the issue with something being out of date and causing Kodi to crash.

There are no tutorials that I know of for dual-boot with Lakka, but create 2x 1GB partitions for boot, and then split the remaining space roughly 50/50 for the two OS to share. Install GRUB and then configure it with appropriate boot= and disk= configurations. Then copy over the respective KERNEL and SYSTEM files and you should be in business.

Sure, create 4x partitions on the drive (boot/storage for 2x OS) and install GRUB as the bootloader (easier for dual-boot than syslinux).

The "cputemp" and "gputemp" scripts present the values shown in the GUI so just run those commands from the console.

All you have to do is enable the "tethered hotspot" feature in LE settings add-on. No need for hostapd to be present. The native feature requires wireless drivers that support AP modes (most, but not all, do) and it is very simple, not a substitute for spending on a proper router.

@Monica (and other shill accounts for Khadas VIM). If you wanted to build a positive reputation for your products and brand with our project all you had to do was participate openly and honestly with our community of users. Instead you see us as a marketing opportunity and have registered multiple forum accounts to post URL links that promote your product and boost Google page rank scores. This is not welcome, and as you have ignored previous warnings your account is now banned from the forum.

@Monica We have no problem with commercial parties providing assistance and support to their users who posting queries/issues in our forum. We have a big problem if you persist in posting "advertorial" content full of links to reviews of your products etc. to boost your Google page ranking. We are not a marketing opportunity and I have binned other threads with unacceptable content - and posts above are edited. Final warning. Thanks.

Has anyone tried these builds yet with the Xiaomi Mi Box yet? It looks to me like the perfect S905X box, available in the US, well supported, 4k and HDR... etc.

AFAIK nobody on staff has one (or at best maybe one person has) and I doubt Xiaomi can spell Linux. You might want to adjust your definition of well supported.

Retest using MMAL only pls.

Are you using OMXplayer or MMAL on the RPi?

No logs .. no problem.

MikeBuzz, how?
