Read the first post - it's even in red. And for the kernel see 2nd post - last addition.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

On intalling kernel i got following:
Entpacken von linux-image-3.14.2-amdfixes5+ (1.0) ...
linux-headers-3.14.2-amdfixes5+ (1.0) wird eingerichtet ...
Examining /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d.
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d/dkms 3.14.2-amdfixes5+ /boot/vmlinuz-3.14.2-amdfixes5+
linux-image-3.14.2-amdfixes5+ (1.0) wird eingerichtet ...
Hmm. There is a symbolic link /lib/modules/3.14.2-amdfixes5+/build
However, I can not read it: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
Therefore, I am deleting /lib/modules/3.14.2-amdfixes5+/build
Hmm. The package shipped with a symbolic link /lib/modules/3.14.2-amdfixes5+/source
However, I can not read the target: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
Therefore, I am deleting /lib/modules/3.14.2-amdfixes5+/source
Running depmod.
Anything to worry about?

I seem to have a problem with the Webserver remote control.
For some reason when the screen has gone to sleep the Android remote won't work.
It won't work through the Web page either.

@Jan0sh: you probably didn't purge the mesa ppa before upgrade.
quote:
2014/04/26: Not for upgraders from saucy. Make sure to run: sudo ppa-purge ppa:wsnipex/mesa and ppa-purge ppa:wsnipex/xbmc-fernetmenta-master prior to running sudo do-release-upgrade - If you have missed those steps, you need to readd the saucy line of the mesa ppa, run sudo apt-get update and purge afterwards.

Not a problem of this thread. xbmc trac is happy to get a nice bugreport.

You did not. You are running a full blown Ubuntu with pulseaudio installed.

I think this whole guide runs fine on the current stable version, or am I mising something?
Replaced
Code:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:team-xbmc/unstable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc-bin
with
Code:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc-bin
Is it ok, or am I running into problems later?

Yes. Current stable, e.g. gotham is enough. Make sure, you add the wsnipex mesa ppa to fix a amd driver bug.
Edit: I will update the howto accordingly.
