Hello,
I installed crystalbuntu on my apple tv one and it works on my tv with hdmi but I want to use it with another tv that only has component. Is there any simple way to make this work?
Thank you

Hi,

With either Putty (Windows) or the Terminal.app (OSX) copy and paste the following, line by line:

This works for my 1080i/p Sony LCD TV, if yours is an old Cathode Ray Tube then please stop now and I will have to modify the xorg.conf file.

Code:

ssh [email protected]
sudo initctl stop xbmc
wget https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/27641650/Crystalbuntu%20ATV1/xorg.conf
sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
sudo mv xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo initctl start xbmc

BTW, a Crystalbuntu ATV1 can be upgraded to Kodi 14.1 and also Kodi15.0Alpha2 aka Isengard if you have a look here:

Thank you so much! But how do I connect the apple tv to my computer (I have no idea what im doing when it comes to programing) does it do it wirelessly? Also its a plasma tv does that make a difference?

Its all a learning process...

Im assuming your ATV and PC are connected to the same local home network. The ATV has to be plugged into your router via a Ethernet cable if you have put a Broadcom Crystal HD card in it to replace the WiFi card.

Firstly, go into Gotham > System > Sysinfo > Network > note down the IP address of the ATV
Next, Gotham > Programs > Crystalbuntu Settings > System Configuration > SSH Server > Enable > OK (bottom left)

Then have a bit of a read about SSH (Secure Shell) and using Putty for Windows to log into the ATV running Crystalbuntu.

In Putty:
ip.address.of.atv
your logging in as user- atv
password is- atv

answer yes to any permissions questions that pop up, then copy and paste the commands (line by line) from the code window from the post above, excluding the ssh [email protected]

If your confident in doing that and all goes well you can actually upgrade to Kodi 14.1 by following the commands in this thread:
