Thanks. Can you tell me what the benefit is to doing a minimal Ubuntu install over just installing XBMC live?
Also, will performing a full Ubuntu install negatively affect speed or performance in XBMC (as opposed to installing Ubuntu minimal or the XBMC live version)?
EDIT: OK last thing: In my situation, what advantages (if any) are there to installing ubuntu rather than just running xbmc through the pre-installed Windows XP? If it makes a difference, I think my TV is only capable of 720p, not 1080i (old Olevia).
Thanks again - I'm a dummy.
