I decided to migrate to linux-xbmc because
* i miss some functionality in xbmc and having linux as a development enviroment i feel quite confortable
* i feel more secure putting my music in an ext2 filesystem instead of fatx
* i am able to run other linux programs next to xbmc
* i'd like to utilize xbmc, because it already has much functionality
I would like to code the features i am missing about xbmc by myself and offer them, once they are implemented. However i need some start point
today I have download the linux trunk and after some minor "library adaptions" it compiled.
When I start it i get a black window, which is resized to full screen quite immeditaely.
But then nothing happens anymore. The content of the window is not updated and moving the window i see lots of artefacts of the windowmanager.
Is there something i generally do wrong ?
Thank you for your hints!
