[LINUX] XBMC won't start on Mint - phiber123 - 2010-04-03

Hi Guys,

I have installed XBMC on Mint 8 using the following guide.

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO_compile_XBMC_for_Linux_on_Debian/Ubuntu

When i run XBMC on command line i get the following (my screen does flash first):

Code:
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)

Major opcode of failed request: 72 (X_PutImage)

Serial number of failed request: 32

Current serial number in output stream: 48

This is followed by:

Code:
CRITSEC[0x8b4cc04]: Trying to enter destroyed section.

CRITSEC[0x8b4cc04]: Trying to leave destroyed section.

this last bit just repeats till i kill the process.
