Decided to try out XBMC on my HTPC. Ive been running MCE for years but I felt I need a change.
Did a normal installation of ubunto 904 witch when pretty smoothly apart from some problems with the graphics (black screen of death I think its called
which worked around by swapping from DVI to VGA)
After the installation was compleat i did a full update of the system and succesfully installed XBMC through the Synaptics Packet Manager.
But not to the problem - XBMC wont start
When i try to run it i get
Whats wrong?
Ive messed with Linux quite a lot before but as it is prob. +5 years ago - please tell it to me like im a 2 year old
