Did you restart your computer You have to make the start of the deamon sticky. (not sure how to do that on xbmcbuntu). Maybe some linux dev or linux user could jump in here now.

If this is a standard XBMCBunutu install it should start automatically.

I've just done a fresh install to test this and it seems to start fine:

Code:

@MicroServer:~$ /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon status
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service avahi-daemon status

Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the status(8) utility, e.g. status avahi-daemon
avahi-daemon start/running, process 850

I did a clean install as well and it still does not start automatically. What do you meen with using service(8) utility not sure how to do that?

Cheers
