October 3, 201015 yr I wish one of you XMBC pros would help me get mine updated so the power button would wake it up from s3. I asked over on the XMBC site and the response was to vague for me to act on. I personally don't know how to fix your issue (I never let my ION box sleep as that adds in issues as you have found and Atoms sip power anyway), but I will say that I know from being active over there that the Dharma release is being held-up by them fixing issues like this for the XBMC Live release. Wait for the Dharma release candidate, then give it an install. Should be a big improvement.
October 3, 201015 yr Do you need to be using a cache drive for cache_dirs, or can it cache the directories in memory?
October 3, 201015 yr I'm using the XBMC Live and had it install to a flash drive. My hardware is a Foxconn G41S-K and a GeForce 210 video card. The Live install installs the ATI or nVidea drivers. The Foxconn G41S-K was on sale for $31 and it's turned out to be pretty nice.
October 3, 201015 yr Do you need to be using a cache drive for cache_dirs, or can it cache the directories in memory? Cache_dirs is not related to the cache drive, it only loads the directories into memory.
October 3, 201015 yr Do you need to be using a cache drive for cache_dirs, or can it cache the directories in memory? Other than they both having the word "cache" as part of their name, they have nothing to do with each other. cache_dirs is simply a process that performs a directory listing on your behalf frequently so it stays in memory. (The disk blocks representing the directory entries are never the least recently accessed and therefore, are not re-used as readily.) Joe L.
