Hi
I want to configure my jaunty + xbmc to make something similar like
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=51713

I try to follow this tutorial, but the minimal ubuntu installation doesn't let me configure my nvidia and my plasma hdtv correctly.

By this reason, I choose to install ubuntu desktop jaunty.... Now I have full funtional xbmc running at my htpc... ubuntu desktop let me install and configure correctly and easy all my hardware.

Now I want to configure my system to automatic run a lightweight enviroment (like fluxbox or blackbox), startx and run xmbc.... without all the services and features that xbmc doesn't need, like the tutorial... but starting from a fully ubuntu desktop...

It's possible?

Thanks in advance.

I never tried this, but it *could* work if you do a

Code:

sudo tasksel

and deselect "Ubuntu Desktop"

Code:

sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop

does the same

this should completely remove all graphical desktop packages including gnome

afterwards, you just continue from the XBMCbuntu guide
