Thanks for the great tutorial, I followed the rules closely, making it even installatacion over ssh and the result is exceptional. Videos 720p operate without any type of lag (I have not tried with 1080), the jumps in the film are super fast.
PS: My motherboard is an asus e35m1-m. The temperature after 3 hours of use was left at 62 ° C with no fan and a enviroment temperature of 25 ° C ¿is correct this temperature or too high?
EDIT: My base system is a ubuntu desktop 11.04 x64 with 4 Gb RAM without swap partition.

Many, many thanks for this tutorial chessplayer, and also many thanks to Robotica for his work getting things off the ground.
I've just got set up on another Asus E35M1-I, playing 1080p video @ ~20% cpu - fantastic!
I've also just made the switch to XBMC from Boxee. Boxee is giving Linux users very little support these days. Looks good so far!
Many thanks again.
Edit: oh and just to add, I used the 11.9 Catalyst drivers (8.892) without any problems. I needed to reboot after installing catalyst and before trying to use the Catalyst Control Centre otherwise I got errors.

Thanks for a nice TUT that finally worked without hassle. I also got it working with the catalyst 1.9 and a ASUS E35-M1 and Ubuntu 11.04 x64.
I have one issue remaining though.
When pausing HD-material (*.mkv) and then resuming, sound and picture often goes out of sync.
Anyone else having this problem? Someone might even have a solution :-)

Thanks for the great tutorial! Everything is working on my ATI HD4350, but I have one small issue. Is there a more updated ppa for the PVR branch? I am using a newer version of "pre-eden" on my main unit with an SQL database... the PVR version installed with the tutorial is too old to read the current database version.
