XBMC quit upon startup in Ubtuntu 8.10
#1
it's been long and painful to get this thing installed in Ubuntu 8.10. Now that it is installed, when I try ti start XBMC, a black window pops up as though it is going to start and closes, so the app won't start. Can anyone help? I heard good things about this product, but boy is it painful getting it going, I fell like I am writing the darn code and testing it as i go along.
