Why run hardy? Karmic is old, lucid is released and xbmc runs fine on the development version.

Things hadn't been planned to be down this long, check out the home page for more details later.

it's mean all will be back to normal tonight?
So finally I will be able to install it again ?
Hopefully...

Because some need Hardy on the AppleTV to do audio over HDMI, this requires a specific Nvidia driver that does not compile on anything greater than Hardy.
xbmc is currently building on the SVN PPA. So *fingers crossed*, I think we're going to be ok tonight. I've never wanted a build to succeed more in my life.
xbmc 59 minutes ago Successfully built

Wait a minute...so you are saying that an Ubuntu version newer than Hardy wont work if you want to use HDMI properly, regardless of GPU, or is this an AppleTV specific issues?

I did say "some need Hardy on the AppleTV to do audio over HDMI", that's a very specific statement. Don't read any more into it.
