Hi,

I know this isn't a specific XBMC forum but I've tried the usual
websites, no-one has been able to help and you've been helpful in the
past.

Basically, I tried to upgrade to latest version of XBMC and now I get
a black screen with red writing after the flubber page (log below).

I know about the new shortcuts and they are correct. I've also tried
setting XBMC as an application and booting from Evox but same problem
occurs.

Have deleted Oface008 folders in tdata and udata and have deleted and
reinstalled a new version of XBMC.

Apart from copying everything and re-formatting I don't know what to
do (and I don't particularly want to re-format).

Log file as follows:

Any suggestions would be more than welcome as I'm well annoyed and it
was something that the wife actually enjoyed and used!!

Thanks,


Mark
