Hi,

I did a new XBMC install and after Splash/Plymouth it loads up tty instead of XBMC's interface.

Thanks.

xinit xbmc-standlone leads to a white terminal

Code:
xbmc@xbmc:~$ xinit xbmc-standlone

(EE) Feb 07 12:37:32 NVIDIA(0): Failed to get supported display device(s)

I added all Lucid Repos using the repo generator. Added XBMC unstable ppa. I have removed all nouveau and nvidia. I have installed Nvidia manually. I am able to get to XBMC interface but i am stuck with 640x480 resolution. I was previously able to get 1024x768. Removing xorg and recofiguring xserver causes OpenGl not found error.
