Hi,
I have a Sony 40EX710 directly connected through HDMI with an Asus EB1501P eeebox. I tried out the latest XBMCBuntu cd but encounter some problems.
I can't seem to get any sound out of my tv with it the liveCD. The XBMCBuntu version of Windows 7 works without problems with the previous Dharma settings. I was trying out the XBMCBuntu boot cd now. The remote is working fine, just the sound is gone...i have set the signal to digital, but don't know what to choose as output device on the System/Audio settings. On Dharma it was just HDMI, 2 channel and Default as output device. Tried several options but when playing movie it just says FAILED about audiosetting. What should it be? Is it possible to copy the windows 7 xmbcbuntu configuration file (where is it?) to use under xmbcbuntu livecd?
Another problem i encountered was when i wanted to try to install XBMCBuntu. The setup screen is showing way too small on my large tv. Only visible text i could read was the Try and Install XBMCBuntu..the rest and following screens were too small to read. How can i increase and make it more readable? I don't have VGA LCD's anymore, so don't ask me to disconnect it from my HD tv and set it up with a VGA monitor. So far i have only tried XBMCBuntu from the LiveCD.
Is it possible to go into Linux commandline from the XBMCBuntu GUI installed from this liveCD?...i read somewhere i need to get the latest ALSA drivers maybe..how to do it?
Hope it is possible to get it running. Thanks in advance for your help. My knowledge of linux is average.

XR.
