HOW-TO: Automated XBMC minimal installer v0.93 for Ubuntu 12.04 > 14.04 - [4/19/2014]
Smile 
Hi,
At the beginning this is great tutorial and 'mini xbmc' installer!

My 'home theater':
Acer Aspire One 532h, 2GB RAM, Intel Atom N450, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 3150,
Samsung 42 inch TV
connected with RGB cable

I had two prolbems.
First was a problem with sound (there wasn't sound at all) but I installed Intel HD sound drivers using this instructions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/UpgradingAlsa/DKMS after this I installed pulseaudio. This two steps solved my 'no sound problem'.

Second problem is when I awake my laptop from sleep mode the TV resolution changes from its full HD to laptop 1024x600. It is strange because when I'm rebooting laptop it starts with full HD resolution. It is annoying because every time after sleep mode I need to change resolution.
I was looking for solution but nothing works for me...

Thank you for help in advance Smile

Nobody can help me?

Extracting the edid of the TV might help, or use a resume hook to set the resolution with xrandr.

Will this script be updated to the Kodi release once the final is released ?

I hope it will be Smile

Hey Guys ,

So after long time i have setup my N40L Server with Ubuntu 12.10 ... and this Script .. all war's working nice and fast. Now i have changed some hardware ... switched to SSD and another HDDs. So now i have installed Ubuntu 14.04. Scripts run without erros , but the only show 1/2 secconds , the XBMC BootScreen , and the come the ubuntu login. Its there a workaround to fix it Undecided
I need a Linux Setup really to setup other stuff like mysql / ampache etc. So i dont wont use a "complete" version. Hope get a qiuck fix here.

I have forked and updated this for kodi. I am currently working on some changes to make it simpler. Asking required questions at the beginning and only stopping to ask questions if you need it to. I also have not yet updated the boot logo to kodi. It is still XBMC.

This does work in 14.04.1 There is a slight pause at the terminal login before kodi starts. I am working on a fix.

Code:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jknight2014/xbmc-ubuntu-minimal/master/12.10/xbmc-ubuntuniversal-minimal-installer.sh
sudo bash xbmc-ubuntuniversal-minimal-installer.sh

If you mean will it install Gotham then no. Since Kodi is officially released this will be the default installed. You could however use then and then downgrade assuming Gotham is still available in the XBMC repository.

If you want to use it to upgrade from Gotham it would only work if you installed HackKid's original script. Although if you installed with the repository on Ubuntu or with these scripts upgrading is easy. Simpley run this:
Code:
sudo apt-get install kodi

ok,

1) Are you using the ubuntu 14.04.1 from ubuntu?
2) have you installed any other programs other than this script?
3) Are there any errors when installing?
4) What kind of graphics card are you using?
5) Did you create the user "kodi" before installing?

Hi Jpaytoncfd,

Have you managed to update the script for Kodi installation? I'd love to give it a try Smile

I am working on an updated version that installs everything you need for an IPVR. You can unselect sonarr, CouchPotato, and Sabnzbd. And yes, it is 100% Kodi.

Code:
wget -O IPVR-setup.sh https://github.com/jknight2014/Kodi-IPVR-setup-script/raw/Testing/IPVR%2BKODI-setup.sh
Code:
sudo bash IPVR-setup.sh
USE THE SPACE BAR TO UNSELECT APPS YOU DONT WANT!!!
At the moment you still have to enter a bunch of data you dont need like usenet info. Its all optional. The only thing you will need for Kodi is a username and password.

Thanks! However, this version of your script is missing "fi" in the line 378 Smile

Nevertheless, I combined your script with the old one form http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=141369, fixed a bit some additional scripts used during the installation and it works great.
I put everything on the first file hoster I found in google, I hope it will stay there for a while so you can take a look, if you wish.
