So, I've been a long time user of xbmc on the good ol xbox.. Even built a skin.

However, I now want to see what linux has to offer and have installed ubunto. so next up is installing xbmc... Have I missed the guide to installing or the install file it self, If someone could point me in the right direction I would be much obliged.

Many Thanks.

If you have a newer ATI or Nvidia card you can use this installer script to get direct rendering

You will need to have a OpenGL 2.x capable card.
