I'm rarely using Chrome but at a Sony too. Since some recent Chrome updates there are strange audio issues too.

E.g. the public video snippets of the Sky web side are usually played without sound. But the radio site https://hr1.de (no idea if geo blocked) is always working, even while the Sky one does not. After some retries it magically starts working.

I managed to do that and checked secure boot was disabled but it still wouldn't boot from the USB I flashed Libreelec on, it just kept booting to Windows. Not sure if I did anything wrong. I'll take a look at that thread though.

Wild guessing: check if there are any USB (boot) options, disabling "fast boot" may be useful too.

I'm already having a kodi memory monitoring script logging the kodi RSS size in KiBytes:

#!/bin/sh
L=/storage/kodi_rss.log
while sleep 60
do
  P=$(pidof kodi.bin)
  test -z "$P" && continue
  echo $(date "+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S,")$((4*$(cut -f 2 -d ' ' </proc/$P/statm))) >>$L
done

Create a script file and start it from autostart.sh in the background.

It is for Generic with 4Ki pages. If using other values, likely 16Ki for RPI4 today, change the '4'.

Never did an AMGLX build, but on such errors it is always wise to remove the build directory and start a clean build.

(In this case the recent glib update cause such errors).

For the windows tablets you have to enter the firmware/BIOS settings and disable Secure Boot (if possible). Then booting the install stick may be working.

Hint: In this thread a Surface Go 2 is used, but there is no information how installed.

It is more complex than expected.

In __connman_timeserver_get_all() connman is creating the NTP server (NTPS) list from

1. explicit configured service NTPS (configured via "Edit" of the connection/service but not for DHCP)
2. DHCP NTPS
3. Gateway (if enabled, in LE not)
4. Global NTPS (configured in LE Network tab)
5. Fallback NTPS (of main.conf)

The first accessible NTPS is used.

After the fix mentioned in vpeter's gist this seem to be working as designed.

To configure your desired NTPS of 1. use

connmanctl config <service> --timeservers [NTPS1 [NPS2 ...]]

The service name list can be obtained by connmanctl services, the current service configuration is listed with connmanctl services <service>.

The UI of LE-Settings addon does not represent this behavior. The "Edit" option is listing the beginning of the complete NTPS list but store the values to connman's Timeservers.Configuration.

Consequently the save option is forbidden for a DHCP connection.

The addon is logging the librespot output to kodi.log

IIRR the NTP servers in the Network tab are only used as fallback servers. But any network connection can be configured individually and the NTP setting will override the DHCP.

For the records: it is not my tutorial, I never used a M72e.

The wiki is about Python3 of Kodi Matrix+. For Python2 of Leia use:

<import addon="xbmc.python" version="2.25.0 "/>

First a few notes of things that may confuse you:

a) The LE image is able to boot on UEFI and old legacy only systems. A "good" modern UEFI firmware refuse to boot such a disk in Compatibility Support Module (CSM) .

b) The installation was successful. When booting Debian the EFI System Partition (ESP) is suppressed and you only see the empty STORAGE partition.

c) LE installation on HD rely on auto booting "\EFI\BOOT\bootx64.efi" but according to the UEFI standard this is only optional.

For a fix see my old post.

Edit: Just noticed the notebook is a M72e. That is more worse, you have to follow the original tutorial.

PS: to create some pressure I'm announcing a matching installer PR.

Still "Open".

ext4 with 32bit feature and 1024 bytes block size support up to 4TiB file systems.

There are issues with resize2fs, see this PR (only in nightlys).

Please execute paste /flash/fs-resize.log and post the URL for verification.

Likely a kernel issue on the older CPU or chip set.

Try latest LE12 and LE13 Generic-legacy from https://test.libreelec.tv/ to test more recent kernels.

Is this documented somewhere or is this a brand new patch you just created?

I needed it some time ago but never created a PR.

A LE11 kodi+ DEBUG build require a kodi patch:

Thanks for your effort, but no Kodi Debug Log and iwd is spamming the journal.

There seem to be a matching PR: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/25460
