Terminal/XBMC Help
#1
Hey,
I am brand new to XBMC Live and need a bit of help. I understand how to get into the terminal because I'm there (ctrl + alt + F1/F2...) and I've seen/heard people say that ctrl + alt + F7 brings you back to the XBMC interface, but when I do that it brings me to a black screen with a blinking cursor. What am I doing wrong?

Also, not relevant to the above problem, I need to connect to my wifi and do not know how to connect. Can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial or show me how to do it? Thanks

~ Sam

ctrl + alt + F9 and alt + F7 do nothing and ctrl + alt + F8 brings me to a screen that says its starting a bunch of disks and modules and checks the state of the battery.

Still have no idea what's going on...

Is the X server still running?

Code:
pgrep -l X

The nvidia driver often crashes when switching from a terminal to X.
