Same problem as redkawa206.
I think the problem is the last "/". Remove it, there should be no slash at the end of your path.
Dudeman.

-bash: {rtf1ansiansicpg1252cocoartf949: command not found
-bash: /Users/rr/.profile: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `}'
-bash: /Users/rr/.profile: line 2: `{\fonttbl\f0\fswiss\fcharset0 Helvetica;}'
so now im thinking this has something to do with it
Thanks again dudeman
Make sure your .profile is in plain text. It appears your .profile may be in RTF (RichText Format).

I have followed the instructions and can get XBMC to run, but it runs in 1920x1080 and all I get is a grey box; even after a reboot.
How can I get it to run in 1280x720 window?
My system is MacBook Pro 2.16GHz w/ ATI x1600
screen resolution = 1440 x 900

Nevermind, I figured it out. I had my XBMC_HOME set incorrectly.
wrong way:
export XBMC_HOME="~/Desktop/XBMC"
right way:
export XBMC_HOME=~/Desktop/XBMC

Dudeman: The / will be removed
dts27: I also have it in rtf, I will try with txt directly when I'm home from work, but I think this might solve the problem

Good answer, that's what I call to make friends.
Obviously, there has to be a powerful reason why Leopard is required, probably something with the video drivers. Remember that this application isn't native, but a port from a port, so you can't ask for miracles.
You should be thanking Elan for the great work he has done, not just dismissing it with a "lame" comment.
