Xbmcbuntu on virtualbox
#1
I wanted to have a play with Xbmcbuntu without dedicating a partition to it, so am trying to set it up on virtualbox.

Host: 64 bit Linux Mint, fglrx graphics, works fine

I dedicated maximum RAM to the video emulator in virtualbox. Xmcbuntu starts to X just fine, but won't run xbmc either from autologin or when logged in an xbmcbuntu session. There is a log here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1483410/

When starting from an xterm the output is as follows: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1484458/

No expert but its complaining about video and sound. I would suggest running XBMC from a USB flash drive instead of a VM if you want to try it out.
