Hi All
After dabbling withe a Raspberry Pi I decided I wanted something more substantial, The Revo's have always been quite popular and with the recent L80 model which is priced at £149.99 from ebuyer I thought it would make a good hardware platform for XBMC
I am starting to have second thoughts,
I have tried every OPENELEC build
all the Intel custom builds I get rainbow screens like something hardware related is not supported
the OSS build installs but never starts
I picked up another thread as someone else has had similar issues installing Ubuntu
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2099752
They suggest the intel / nvidia code is broken for hardware acceleration on XBMC so im thinking the hardware isnt being supported correctly on the new Revo L80 / RL80 platforms
Has anybody else succesfully got XBMC running on this platform, if so please can you advise how!?
