I've just switched over to Linux and am trying to get XBMC working properly. I've been getting a video stutter, and have tried changing all the sound settings on other threads I've read (to analog, etc.).
I was told on my [url=http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=156613&action=newpost
]post from a couple of days ago[/url] that the version I was running - 11 - isn't supported. But that's the version that automatically comes up when you search for XBMC in the built-in apps finder GUI!
Anyways, so I tried to follow the instructions here to upgrade to version 12. Step 1 worked, but hit a wall with step 2 (sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:current_XBMC_providing_ppa). When I type that in terminal, I get the following error:
Cannot access PPA (https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~current_X...rchive/ppa) to get PPA information, please check your internet connection.
My internet's working just fine, though. Oddly enough, when I feed the url in the error message into my browser, I get nothing - a "page not found" page from launchpad. I tried digging around and finding a direct download, and whenever I tried to load them continued to receive errors. Any advice?
