I have XBMC running on Ubuntu, which has been working perfectly for over a year now. All of a sudden, the screen freezes up and I get funky colored blocks all over the screen. Some times I can restart the PC and it will allow me to watch a movie and sometimes not. I was leaning towards a video card issue but I dont know how to diagnose it. I am not very familiar with Linux, so trouble shooting can be kinda tough for me. I was hoping someone here may be able to help me out by telling me how to determine if this is a video card issue with out purchasing a new card first. I have recently updated the machine to the latest Unbuntu version in hopes that it would fix the problem but it did not. I have been trying to find the magic command line to update XBMC but I dont see it in the wiki. Not being familiar with Linux I probably have over looked it.
Thanks,
David
