I am trying to install xbmc live 9.04.1 on an IBM Thinkcentre S50 box.
the installation seems to pass fine only one thing is a problem.
once the system starts it shows a blank screen. I mean I can hear the navigation sounds of the default theme but no image.
The output is set to the VGA interface that is integrated with the motherboard, and from the xbmc log file it seems that xbmc recognizes the default output and the wide screen resolution required.
I can switch to a cli gui using ALT-CTRL and F2, and interact with the system.
I tried killing the xbmc and got to minimal windows manager, so the X works fine, but once i started the xbmc application everything went dark again... ( with navagaion sounds )
I tried connecting my LCD TV which is wide screen, and tried a standatd 1280x1024 LCD and expirianced the same thing.
anyone had an idea how to fix this?
