Yeah, linked to that thread earlier. Reinstalling now, but now i know i should always test the latest xbmc on my desktop before updating my HTPC, hehe.
Okay I updated to svn23321 and everything is working fine, but now VDPAU upscaling is removed, I noticed it was added in svn23164. Now I'm not really sure I am running the latest version. Because the info just says:

Code:

Thanks. Is 22118 also listed on the archive? I can't retrieve a file list from it..

My guess is that really old releases isn't prioritized. So after a few weeks these builds are gone.

22528 isn't good enough...
They broke wma pro (hd) support after 22215, so I would be really happy to go back just before this....
Well you could always try and retrieve it from SVN instead:

Code:
svn co -r 22118 http://xbmc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xbmc/branches/linuxport/XBMC XBMC

Check /var/cache/apt/archives, all the files are probably still there if you previously installed it.
Is it just me, or did something change with respect to fonts in between SVN 22528 and 23422? The fonts in MediaStream are not the right size, few other themes seem ok. Is this a problem in SVN or does something need to be fixed in MediaStream and perhaps other themes?

They are no longer there Sad Anyone else with 22118 in it's cache? I'm willing to put it somewhere public so everyone can use it!
So 22118 would right now be the most stable/complete svn build? I am trying to figure out which build to use. I want something newer and more up2date than Babylon. So would 22118 be the way to go?

Starting up...
Loading, plz wait....

Ubuntu 9.0.4 xbmclive tty1
XBMClive Login:

what am i doing wrong?
Any of these builds should be fine to me:

22118
22182
22146
22193
22204

As long it's before 22215, because they broke WMA Pro which hasn't been fixed till now.

You also have to download the xbmc-live & xbmc-standalone packages.
Hello,

are Hardy PPAs suspended for good?
I just want to know if I have to compile by myself.
And PPAs were very handy for build-deps.
