Have you checked your Deinterlacing settings? I've had my screen go green/corrupted when my interlacing settings were set incorrectly.
I'm assuming you get the green screen when playing back video, but the XBMC UI works fine.

First thing I'd do is a reinstall. Next try an older version. If its still not working then state detailed information of your problem on here. you cant expect the svn to work flawlessly in every instance.

It's possible that the recent video renderer optimizations might have broken the ATI renderer.

Those of that have ATI cards, please try changing line 187 in xbmc/cores/VideoRenderers/RenderManager.cpp from CLinuxRendererATI(true) to CLinuxRendererGL() and see if that helps the green screen issue. If it does please report back and I'll commit it.

Same problem with my ATI-card.
I've also tried to change CLinuxRendererATI(true) to CLinuxRendererGL() but my screen turns then white instead of green.

The ATI renderer is still broken, it will probably be fixed in the next few days.

FYI
I too have problem with ATI and solid green screen when playing movie.
Just to test i removed ATI's restricted drivers and installed Xfree's open ATI 3d driver.
And now i see the movie but everything is in shades of green instead, not solid green anymore, and the fps is normal again, not locked on 2fps.
Still unwatchable but a small step in the right direction...
My build is from 2008-01-07
Xubuntu7.10 + Ati x300
Any progress with Ati renderer, d4rk ?
