  • LibreELEC 7.95.3: Failed to start Xorg Server

    I have installed a fresh installation with LibreELEC 7.95.3. Booting stops with an error:

    Code
    LibreELEC (official) - Version: 7.95.3
[FAILED] Failed to start Xorg Server
See 'systemctl status xorg.service' for details.
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Fluxbox Window Manager.

    systemctl status xorg.service:

        !!! Unknown header type 7f
        Kernel driver in use: radeon

    Here is the problem: the graphic driver for my old notebook does not recognize my graphic card. So why is it not supported anymore and could you please add the driver again? It is still working with 7.0.3....

  • Howto change key press to longkeypress for remote

    Thank you very much for your hint. This disables the power button but does not enable longpress for power.
    But if you change it to

    XML
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<keymap>
  <global>
    <remote>
      <power>noop</power>
      <power mod="longpress">ShutDown()</power>
    </remote>
  </global>
</keymap>


    then it is working! So first disable the old function, then add a new one.

    Best

  • Howto change key press to longkeypress for remote

    Hi,

    I'm running LibreELEC 7 with Kodi 16.1 that has the new feature for long pressing keys. I'm fine with the default configuration for my remote in LibreELEC/Kodi except the shutdown key. I want to change only this key behaviour to shutdown LibreELEC if the key is pressed for a longer time.

    For that I created a file /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml with

    XML
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<keymap>
  <global>
    <remote>
      <power mod="longpress">ShutDown()</power>
    </remote>
  </global>
</keymap>


    and rebooted the machine.
    Unfortunately Kodi still shuts down after one short key press on the power button. lirc (irw) detects the key KEY_POWER.
    Is there still something missing that my configuration does not overwrite the default configuration for the power button?

    Thanks!
