This is burning my brain!!
I'm new to Linux and reading all the guides on building from the SVN I just keep hitting a dead end.
3 quick questions.
Now Maverick is officially released, how long til XBMC will be available for it -
I installed Maverick last night and expected XBMC to work out of the tin
Can the latest SVN builds be used with Maverick?
If so, how do I go about understanding how to build from the SVN, when the commands to do it via example are not well documented? Is there a type 'this', press 'this'. install 'this' type guide anywhere? I know I'm asking a lot, but every command I enter into Terminal is throwing back errors at me... the best one so far was
To the normal user, it seems to me like no amount of reading/learning is going to help. I'm completely computer literate and work as a Windows Computer technician, anything Windows is a breeze, but I find Linux extremely frustrating when trying to learn anything with it.
Can someone PLEASE point me in the right direction....!?
