[xstreamos-discuss] ISO -XS 154 Test Results

[karthik]

Hi XStreamOS Community,For those of you running the latest update of XStreamOS, I have an update on VLC usage for you. In the below email I had reported that VLC crashes when playing mp4 or avi file. The latest version is VLC 2.2.4 . I have noticed that the crash happens only when using LXDE desktop logged in via the lightdm login manager. If i login via startx with XFCE as a desktop then the immediate crash does not happen. I am using XFCE from the joyent pkgsrc repo(2016Q4). This is using native Xorg of XStreamOS, so the startx will be located at /usr/bin/startx.The same experience was with VLC 2.2.2 which is also present in the Sonicle IPS repo. I mostly watch videos downloaded from Youtube on VLC. Both VLC versions were stable enough on XFCE to have pleasant viewing session even in full screen mode.

My PC configuration is like this:Intel Core i7 6700K,ASUS Z170 Pro Gaming motherboard,8 GB DDR4 RAM,1TB Seagate HDD,no separate graphics card.  I have only XStreamOS on the desktop.I noticed a few package/application issues after desktop installation :1. VLC crashes when playing mp4 or avi file.2. System monitor fails to launch. I used the GUI package manager and installed the GNOME 3 version of it, the issue still present.3. The contents of the memory section for lxt
 ask vanish a few seconds after lxtask is launched and running. No issues with USB3 support. Otherwise the install is fine.I burned the USB image to a new SanDisk Flash drive with ImageUSB in Win 7. But when I booted up on my desktop I got a blank screen with just a blinking white cursor. I had legacy MBR boot enabled in my UEFI BIOS. Re-burned the USB image with Win32 Disk Imager also and tried once again, got the same result. I am not very familiar with USB installs since mostly I burn the ISO to a rewritable DVD for installation, so not sure if anything not done correctly on my side.RegardsKarthik  Da: karthik <longmode at rediffmail.com>A: xstreamos-discuss at lists.sonicle.comData: 27 maggio 2017 15.08.07 CESTOggetto: [xstreamos-discuss] new ISO -XS 154 HiWhen will the new ISO for XStreamOS 154 be released. I have two installs of XS 153(in VirtualBox with sonicle extensions installed),one being beta3 and the other May-2015 release which I am unable to
  update due to package conflicts during pkg update.For the beta3 install, the packages header-math,sendmail,gcc-44 and ftp cause conflicting actions. I have successfully uninstalled header-math and sendmail. But I cannot uninstall ftp as that is dependent on the dhcp service package.If this is uninstalled I cannot configure/access internet via DHCP. I am using this OS as my personal Unix box.Faced the same issues with May-2015 ISO install.ThanksKarthik_______________________________________________
