Hello,
I feel dumb for asking this, but I have trouble updating xbmc in xbmcbuntu. Here's the story.
For some obscure reasons, my usb tv adapter won't work in xbmcbuntu 12 stable (tvheadend problem, see here for details if interested), so I figured I would install xbmcbuntu v12 beta1, which worked before, and manually update xbmc to v12 stable. After the install, I booted into xbmc then ssh'ed from my other computer and tried doing this :

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:team-xbmc/unstable
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get remove xbmc xbmc-bin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc-bin

After a reboot, the user "xbmc" doesn't exist anymore, only "xbmcbuntu" so I cannot auto login into xbmc as I used to. I don't know even if xbmc installed properly.
So my question is : is there a way to update xbmc and xbmc only without changing anything else?
Thanks a lot!

So you want to install XBMCBuntu Eden and upgrade the to frodo? Thats what I did because I set up did not want to play nicely with Frodo based on 12.10.

So I did a fresh install of XBMCBuntu Eden based on 11.10 and did the following with no issues.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo update
sudo apt-get install xbmc

and the installed everything else I use. Worked fine.
