Full Version: Debian testing - cannot start xbmc.bin

Running debian testing, kernel 2.6.26 using nvidia driver..

Installed xbmc using svn source version 16217, saw no errors during compile..

When I try to start xbmc.bin I see the XBMC window for 1 second before it disapears with the following error message on console:
Fatal error encountered, aborting..


My error log:

Any tips? :/
Looks like you're missing skins?

Did you make install? You should'nt be running xbmc.bin directly.

ah thought the ./build.sh did the install to the BUILD dir directly, make install fixed it thx..
build.sh is deprecated. You should not use it.

./configure, make, make install.
That's it!

Just joined,

Any luck getting XBMC running in Debian?

I am starting to rebuild/mix up parts for another HTPC and strongly considering XBMC for it.
