http://ubuntuforums.org – I am running "Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.2.0-31-generic x86_64)" with the XBMC application installed, and set the system to boot into an XBMC specific desktop session on boot. I followed the guide in their wiki to configure Wake-on-USB for the MCE Remote I have. http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title...wake_in_Ubuntu Everything worked fine until last night. Nothing was changed in the system setup, either the O/S or XBMC. I did a couple of reboots of the system from inside XBMC to force it's AirPlay feature to become network discoverable and usable from my other devices on the ne (Hardware)

My system: ubuntu 10.04 with xbmc 10

I am notThis is cause my video playing to slow. I reinstalled a couple times still the same. Mine is a single core, I don't why it's showing two cpu.

Can any one help with this please? Thank you!

Folks,

Background: I am running xbmc media center app on a Ubuntu 13.04 based system.

In order for user "xbmc" to properly run "xbmc" application, the wiki says that the following must be done:

sudo polkit-auth --user xbmc --grant org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.suspend sudo polkit-auth --user xbmc --grant org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.hibernate sudo polkit-aut

I have a laptop running Ubuntu and XBMC for my parents can use. Occasionally, XBMC will freeze and they have no way of restarting XBMC. The desktop is unresponsive.

If this was on Windows, my parents would hit `ctrl-alt-del`, kill XBMC, and reopen it. If this was me, I'd drop into shell and run `pkill xbmc`.

I need a method my parents can use on Ubuntu.

hi.

While running XBMC, I can adjust the volume of the XBMC application itself. However, this volume is limited by the current system volume. For example, if the system volume is at 80% and XBMC is at 100%, I am effectively at 80% and cannot go higher.
