Well, my joy of Gotham+Linux on M3 was short lived. I sold it today... The "test 2" build ran great for the few hours I got to play with it without any hiccups.
Amlogic Quad core here I come....

@dhead: your "MX Gotham" build is running great here. Only thing I'm trying to figure out is why it doesn't mount USERDATA from USB thumbdrive...
Maybe we need a M6/MX dedicated thread as not to congest this one and create confusion among participants?

One issue I've noticed with the MX builds is ever since the network manager was introduced there has been a problem with the box connecting to the Internet and/or xbmc repo (at least for me anyway). What happens is it connects to the wireless fine and picks up an IP address etc but the xbmc.org repo is empty, even after a reboot and a force refresh/check for updates. At first, once I connected to my wireless I was powering the box off and on using the remote but the wireless wouldn't save. It would only save if I selected the standby button from the XBMC interface. However when I then powered it back on every time I checked get add-ons it was empty, even though the wireless was still connected ok and I tried a refresh etc. I don't have this problem with my old gbox midnight and these builds with the same network manager. I think what is happening with the MX is XBMC is starting to quick before the networking is fully ready and therefore the get add-ons / repo is empty. Does anyone else have this issue? I tried a Jaybob MX build a few weeks ago and had the same problem but his build has an option to delay startup, you don't notice any difference in time so it must only be an extra second or so it needs. Perhaps it doesn't happen on the M3 build because it takes that second longer to load? Is there a way I can delay startup to test it?

I have successful been using the test1 Gotham build on a g-box midnight. I want to change some advancedsettings and was planning on sshing into the box. However, I cant seem to figure out what the password is. Tried g-box and admin. If I missed it I apologize.
