Hi
It was late at night...so all the following is IIRC..
You need the libcdio-0.93-i486-1.xzm module
It should be available via USM
LOGIN AS ROOT
Copy the Kodi 17.1 module into /tmp and extract it.
(shorten the name of the resulting folder to kodi)
Extract the libcdio-0.93-i486-1.xzm module.
In ../usr/lib/ are two files (among others)
libcdio.so.16 (which is a link) and a shared library libcdio.so.16.0.0
Copy the two files into /tmp/kodi/usr/lib/
Now rebuild the module.
Open a terminal and run:
dir2xzm /tmp/kodi /tmp/kodi-17.1-whatever.xzm
If all goes well, the final module will be in /tmp
(and should work with porteus 4.0 32bit xfce).

Thanks -- the module appears to run. I have posted a link to it in the i486 modules section.

Re: Kodi Krypton
Of course the bundle itself lies on the temp folder, which is, most probably, only in your RAM disk. (And stuff in /tmp usually never gets saved in the save dat file of Porteus.) So of course you need to copy it somewhere safe, e.g. your porteus/optional folder or any other place you store Porteus modules that should not be automatically activated during startup.donald wrote: ↑20 Jun 2017, 08:45-- the bundle is ready and you can now delete the temporary used folders --Code: Select all
root@porteus:/tmp/bla# dir2xzm /tmp/your-app-name-folder /tmp/app-name-bundle.xzm
( /tmp/bla and /tmp/whatever-the-app-name-was )
To most users the above should be obvious that creating the module like donald explained and then reboot would result in no module anywhere whatsoever. I just want to point out the obvious for the ones who not see it as that obvious.
Cheers!

Re: Kodi Krypton
Still, you are not responsible for the user's actions. They should get to know the system they are running, it is up to them.
And the /tmp or /temp folder being on a RAM disc, if you ask me that is a clever way in any case. Why would e.g. SM-Witless OS have these permanently stored on the users hard disk?
Cheers!

Trying to run donald's kodi module using XFCE version of Porteus 5.0rc1:
Seems some dependencies are not met for now.
Hopefully when I manually fix all these, no new ones pop up. I kind of dislike dependency hell.
Update
What is worse, as long as I had the Kodi module activated, other python scripts (e.g. youtube-dl) have been broken, so it seems the old Kodi module is not compatible with Porteus 5.0rc1.
Donald, would you be able to create a new version for 5.0rc1 that would run in XFCE or Openbox? That would be very much appreciated.
Code: Select all
guest@porteus:/$ ldd /usr/lib64/kodi/kodi.bin|grep not
libcdio.so.16 => not found
libva.so.1 => not found
libva-drm.so.1 => not found
libva-x11.so.1 => not found
libhogweed.so.4 => not found
libnettle.so.6 => not found
libidn.so.11 => not found
