Bugzilla – Bug 8605
Controller locking up, only reacting to some keystrokes
Last modified: 2008-06-30 10:35:14 UTC
Created attachment 3512 [details] log file from reboot -> lock up -> a few button presses -> failed shutdown Some controllers seem to have a problem rebooting under whatever conditions. Mine does boot correctly, but while connected to my SC, updating the NP screen etc, most of the keys and the wheel are dead. Trying to shut it down using the Home key will display the Goodbye message, but never really stop it. Home button seems to be working, as is Volume and Rew/Ffd, but not eg. Play or Add, Center button etc. One common property might be that the three of us (Max, Alan, me) are using pre-production units, which only recently (a week ago or so) were programmed a UUID (Alan & me), or not at all (Max).
One more thing: the MAC address my SBC is reporting is wrong and has been already before setting the UUID. It's no SD MAC.
Comments by Richard suggest that this is as a result of no-longer-supported boot firmware.
Richard seems pretty convinced this is due to old old firmware and bootloader. Please update or replace and re-open if there's still a problem.
bootloader update seems to have fixed this form me indeed. Successfully updated to 2631, rebooted etc.
