Hi. I installed xbmc on one of my laptops.
I'm viewing images, listening to music, and watching videos streamed from my home-built server through samba on my LAN.
I have a few questions.
1) How do I know what version of XBMC I'm using?
2) How do I "play all" of my music and randomize it? (I have like 50GB of music on my home-server.)
3) I signed into youtube via xbmc and can search for videos but when I select them, they won't play.
4) Is there a package manager? If yes, how does it work?
5) How do you get to a text interface or terminal or shell? I tried Ctrl+Alt+<F1-F7> but none of those worked.
6) Can I configure xbmc to connect to the internet and my home server wirelessly? Everything is plugged in right now.
