might be the dist-update that was causing issues and not a fresh install. I know from past experience that somethings can break otherwise, andI don't want to begin thinking of how many times I had to use fresh installs back in the day when linux first came out, but then I was doing experiemental and testing all the time and compiled everything from code.. 12.04 is a LTS release it would seem more fitting for a STB where one wouldn't have to have the latest software. For me I use a Ubuntu minimal with XBMC installed and X with the desktop environment, so a constant upgrade of software isn't neccasary because those extra packages are not installed. A LTS would be good for just getting security fixes and bugs taken care of making a pretty stable environment.
In a world without walls and fences who needs windows and gates, open source, opens minds, so open yours today.
