[Samsung 3]Issues with Unity2D and VLC Player #290

Closed wulunruhe closed 11 years ago

wulunruhe commented 11 years ago

First up thanks alot for your wonderful hard work, I really appreciate it! I'm technically knowledgable but have very little experience with linux and the terminal. I installed the Raring release on XFCE target, since Unity doesn't work on the ARM series.

Unity 2d: Afterwards I wanted to install Unity 2d with sudo apt-get install unity-2d and then xinit /bin/sh -c -- /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc as outlined in other posts

but it doesn't appear and i don't know what I can do to change from XFCE to the unity2d theme.

VLC: I installed vlc via sudo apt-get install vlc

but if I want to play any video file it starts up and freezes on the first image. Sometimes it plays the sound but with audiofiles like .mp3 it always says that the audio device is busy and won't play anything.

Do you have any suggestions for these issues?

Thanks! Mattis

unity-2d is a transitional dummy package in quantal and raring. precise is the last release where it was actually supported, so if you want Unity on ARM (including 2D) you need to use precise.

Not sure about VLC though, perhaps @dnschneid can comment on that?

You'll also want to install unity via the unity target in crouton.
