Last week I upgraded from Dharma to XBMCbuntu Frodo RC3 by doing a clean install but now I'd like to upgrade to Frodo final release.

Is it as simple as logging into XBMCbuntu and running the following?

Code:

sudo apt-get install ppa-purge python-software-properties pkg-config
sudo ppa-purge ppa:whatever-ppa-you-have-now
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/ppa
apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc

What is the repository I would have to purge in the steps above?

Do you suggest that I need to updater the Ubuntu OS too?

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

But that will leave you on the unstable PPA, meaning you will get monthly builds of xbmc 13.

How to switch from Xbmc unstable PPA (used in Xbmcbuntu Beta/RC releases) to stable PPA:

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:team-xbmc/unstable
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get remove xbmc xbmc-bin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc-bin

Thanks wsnipex. I'll give that a go.

Yes it works. Upgrade went smoothly.

Would these steps work on a XBMC Live install (Originally Camelot) that was upgraded to Dharma, then To Eden, via apt-get install xbmc?

Should do, but your base OS must be getting pretty old!

I think the XBMC dvd kit remote does not work on the new LIRC, and was the reason I stayed in XBMC live to being with.

Is there a problem with my os base getting old?

[nickr]

If it works that is fine, the supporting libraries and kernel/drivers may leave you behind.

I found this: http://www.xbmcfreak.nl/en/xbmc-9-11-liv...ntu-10-04/ - I might give it a try before going for Frodo then, just scared it might be outdated.. and I also have to check first this lirc problem with the dvd kit remote for xbox1. XBMC without a remote is sad days Thanks.

EDIT: apparently remote not going well on frodo so far.. http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=150924
