Hi all, I'm having a problem when I'm running XBMCBUNTU 12 beta 1.
I'm running it into a Panasonic TXP50GT30B Plasma, the picture is flashing and jumping every 5-7 sec, if I go into the video output setting the refresh rate is 0.00 and I cannot adjust it.
The XBMCBUNTU 11 worked OK no problems. I have tried a fresh install and also an update install but still have the same problem.
I'm running am ASROCK H61M-ITX & G620T CPU.
Wonder if anyone has any ideas.
Regards,
Martin

Welcome to the XBMC forums.

Maybe Frodo isn't using the same video driver as with Eden? Compare the two versions for the following:
System > System info > Video

Post back with your results.

(Note: You don't need to re-install Eden on your system; just boot in "live" mode with the XBMC 11 installation CD or USB drive and go the the page above.)
HI thanks for the reply.

The video driver is different,

Frodo it's gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe(LLvm 0x300)
Eden it's Mesa DRI Intel® Sanybridge Desktop x86/MMX/SSE2

Hope this helps

Think I might installing win7 and see if that fixes it..
you need to install the correct intel gfx driver and libva.

sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-intel i965-va-driver libva1 libva-x11-1 vainfo
