alohre Wrote:the following worked for me when it hanged with a black screen.

1. choose the AMD/ATI safe mode option from the boot menu

2. login (username root, no password)

3. type the following: "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" (no quotes)
just choose the default options on all the choices that you are presented
this will generate a basic xorg.conf file

4. then run the ati init: "aticonfig --initial" (this will install the ati spesific stuff in xorg.conf)

5. type "startx"

you should now be presented with the fluxbox window manager. right click on the desktop and start a terminal, and run the "xbmc" command.


I just typed this from memory, so please correct me if you see any obvious mistakes.


after the step 3 the system asks about keyboard config, ok but the step 4 don't work.

"No supported adapters detected" says.

Here talk about the issue more specificly
