Just finished installing using your script - everything works flawlessly.
Most happy about the remote fixes you've done, works every time
Great work
the script only installs the HT CIR driver for you which is equal to extracting the drivers and dpkg -i whatever.deb
the 1.0.4 drivers works on resume by default.

So what do i do first? I have an ASrock ION 330HT-BD
1. Format the drive using minimal ubuntu on a cd and then install it? (dont know what minimal ubuntu is, is it a normal Ubuntu OS?)) How do i partition the drive from minimal ubuntu to avoid losing all my files again? or can i partition the disk later when i login to Ubuntu?
2. Then i run the commands you said from terminal and it will set up everything correctly? (xbmc,nvidia drivers,remote, boot into xbmc etc.)
Sorry for the stupid questions but just trying to clarify everything.
Hopefully this will be my last attempt, and hopefully we can all manage to create the simpler guide for all people to use and avoid all the hustle you guys have spent in providing them.
You have some reading issues, which is where your problems start...
My topic I link to this http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=XBMCbuntu
thats minimal ubuntu install means NO GNOME desktop and it mean only terminal work by user. e.g. command line.
you have to run as root or enter sudo before ANY cmd otherwise it wont have right permission and fail.
if during minimal ubuntu you allow root login it creates a password which then it will also prompt you to create a normal user > XBMC
to login after as root the user = root the password is what you set it as. done.
I suggest you read on that as well before you go off and start having issues again.
