You can download Linux here: http://www.ubuntu.com/

Or just give XBMC-Live a try, it's shipped with Linux

Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this (I am on AMD64)?

You did
apt-get update
and
apt-get upgrade?
You might also try aptitude. It's a kind of graphical interface to apt-get (console graphic)

Yes I've done both and thats what I get -- my base build is the LIVE 9.1B1 build installed to the HDD.

Aptitude says no updates are available.

have you tried apt-get -f install

This happened to me on moving from "stable" beta to the SVN package - you have to force-remove the old xbmc-common package, then update/upgrade.

Nice! The latest version works perfectly for me! (R25363).

Thanks.

+1, solved my dependency errors

Any idea why after doing a force/remove on xbmc-common and then a reinstall of xbmc-common using the SVN PPA sources it boots to a login prompt and not right into XBMC?

If I login and startx it works fine.

I apologize since this is a cross post but I figured I would provide some more detail:


I am using the correct sources for the SVN PPA:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc-svn/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc-svn/ppa/ubuntu karmic main

One person in this thread said he had to force xbmc-common to uninstall and then reinstall xbmc-common PPA to get the Beta1 LIVE image (installed to HDD) to actually start pulling SVN PPA updates. I did as suggested and upon reinstalling xbmc-common and rebooting it goes to a login prompt -- does not boot into XBMC (its possible this did work but I am by no means a Linux expert and do not know how to fix it so it boots back into XBMC directly).

Fresh install -- same sources using the apt-get -f install syntax yields this...

I would appreciate any help from anyone who has successfully taken the XBMC pre-built Live 9.1b ISO installed it to the HDD and has successfully applied the SVN PPA builds there after. I have several issues in Library mode that seem to cause XBMC to crash and restart and am hoping this is fixed already.

Thanks again for any assistance with this -- I didn't think this was going to be as much trouble to update as it has been but again appreciate any assistance with this.

I too am would like to update the pre-built Live 9.11b ISO and am having the same issues.

Mark me as a 3rd who would like some assistance (same issue)

speedbal

Nobody has done this and is willing to explain what they did exactly to make it happen? By all means I am not trying to be a pain in the ass but would highly appreciate any assistance with this. I have read page after page and tried all kinds of suggestions but it is not just me having this problem.

Again I really do appreciate the comments so far and any further assistance!

There is no svn releases during the release process. You need to wait or compile or yourself.
If you do not get beta1 from svn ppa use the "stable" instead.

This is covered already in this and many other threads.
