All,
I am an intermediate user of XBMC, both on original Xbox and Windows. I'm now trying my hand at configuring XBMC Live on a brand new Zotac Ion motherboard. I'm booting XBMC Live from an 8GB SanDisk USB key. This works flawlessly! XBMC boots reasonably quick and everything seems to work. I even got it to play 1080p video smoothly from an attached USB hard drive!!! My problem is that XBMC doesn't seem to see the onboard Gig netywork adapter, or the onboard miniPCI wireless network adapter. When I go into the XBMC network configuration screen, it shows the network interface as "eth1" and I can change that option to "wlan1" but all other options on the screen (Assignment, IP address, etc...) remain greyed out. My first question is, how can I verify if XBMC Live works with the onboard network adapters? If it isn't working, how can I load drivers?
My config is
XBMC Live version - 9.04.1
Motherboard - Zotac IONITX-A-U
USB memory key - SanDisk cruzer Titanium 8GB
Memory - 2 x 2GB Corsair xtreme DDR2
Please help, I really think that XBMC live is promising for a quick and easy setup, but I must have network access!!!!
Thanks
