Hi, I have installed XBMC on a Lucid Ubuntu, dual core p4 with nvidia g210 and all is fine: I will try installing a remote controller on this system :-)
Meanwhile, I have installed XBMC on another system:
dual core AMD athlon 64 5200
ati radeon HD4800
Ubuntu Lucid 64bit
XBMC 1:9.11-ubuntu3 from team-xbmc ppa
I have installed the proprietary driver downloaded from ati website.
On that system, gxine freeze Ubuntu really often so I have removed it. Others player are ok (vlc, smplayer, totem) but, obviously, something is not ok in this system...
With XBMC, initially I had problems playing videos because the color was incorrect. Then, I have set render type to ARB in XBMC system video options and now colors are ok.
The problem is that when I see a slideshow, the images zoom, move and swich at high speed. The speed is visibly changing between two values during the slideshow (but is always at high speed). Changing the time of the slideshow in the options do not take effect: I can set 20s but the slideshow will display an image for about 1 or 2s.
Disabling zoom and pan effects do not solve the problem.
Also, in the first screen of XBMC, we can see a string moving at the bottom, from the right to the left of the screen. That string is not moving at constant speed, like for the slideshow.
No matter if I use compiz or not. I have tried to lock the cpu freq. but that do not take effect.
I do not know if that is a XBMC, Ubuntu or ati driver problem.
Also, sometimes, if I stop a playback of a movie will crash XBMC.
Attached are log and crashlog files.
