Just a note that using the instructions on page one doesn't compile properly using the latest SVN. I ended up using a previous SVN that compiled perfectly and I am now enjoying the new Aeon Stark skin. Love everything so far.

The error I was getting has something to do with lcdio I believe.

Run this:

Code:

#sudo apt-get install libcdio-dev

Then run "STEP 16", again.

Sounds good. I will play around with that this weekend.

Thx.

[sinnor]

Works fine now after I added that package.

Very Nice guide olympia.

If you want more space on the root partition download gparted live cd. It can resize the partitions created by the xbmc live installer. I made my sda1 partition 3.5gb larger and replaced the ext3fs.img with a larger one. You have have to manually make it bootable again by running syslinux.exe in windows but thats no problem. Bare in mind all changes made in the current ext3fs.img will be erased. I've only tested this with a hd install not flash drive.

To make a larger ext3fs.img in linux.

Code:

dd if=/dev/zero of=ext3fs.img bs=1M count=3500
mkfs.ext3 ext3fs.img -F

You can replace count= 3500 to whatever size although the sda1 partition is formatted in fat32 so i think it has a 4gb size limit(could be wrong about this).

cheers

Hi, could you be a bit more specific on this ? I tried with gparted but I'm not sure what partition to resize..... I'm running out of space when installing svn builds. Thanks !

Ok, I think i got it now. Resize the fat32 with the gparted live cd. But what about resizing the ext3fs.img ? Do i do this on my xbmclive machine or on another linux machine and then copy it back to the xbmc machine ?

[piotr]

Ok, I did all the resizing with Gparted, now how do i use syslinux to make the disk bootable again ? Thnx !

does anyone have any issues with this board after suspend (auto)? my network appears to die after waking up with an ubuntu 8.1 install.

It is not the board, it is an intrepid issue and some earlier releases, some do and some don't, google it there are plenty of things to try.

Suspend has to set to "s3 only" in bios.

This board is able to suspend and resume under Intrepid.
Although I don't have recent experiences with the Live version, it is working for me on a Linux installation.

can you tell me which acpi/pm script you are using to suspend? i don't have an issue suspending once or twice, but after that it requires the psu to be turned off and on again.

i suspect it may be related to the nvidia drivers. i'm using 180.51.

I want to be able to use HDMI and SPDIF simultaniously. Is this possible in this setup?

The reason I want this, is that I want to be able to use sound from my LCD TV connected through HDMI and my receiver connected through SPDIF. I wan to do this without going into the alsa mixer everytime.

So if my receiver would be off, I still want sound from my LCDTV. And if I Mute the sound from my LCDTV I want to be able to have sound from my surround receiver.

I get the same exact problem with the 9.04 minimal installation htpcPHK. I think we're missing a dependency or something. Anyone have any ideas? I'm also using the P5N7A-VM. I'm using 8.04 minimal in the meantime.

[Musta78]

Has anyone tried to install XBMCLive 9.04.1?
I'm not getting any sound at all. Search and tried allot!!

If anyone with this card made it work please let me know
