I installed this with my repositories since it seemed to be in there. when I did a apt-cache search xbmc
it made a nice menu item in my multimedia section I click it and up comes a white washed screen I can barly make any thing out i hear swosh sounds when I hit esc.
at some point the screen (when wiggling the mouse ) darkened up a bit to see a side menu i sorta click ed on system but its way to white to see anything is there anything I can do edit to make it so I can actually play with this app. i think its working fine just can not see crap..
I tried to search for a solution in the forums I got nothing to do with my issue. I am lost someone give me a tip or idea what is wrong here. I will try to install on my android mk802 for the tv later but was hoping to see what is so great about this app on my computer first!
