Code:
cd /home/xbmc/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/
cp /usr/share/xbmc/system/keymaps/joystick.AppleRemote.xml .
(or usr/local depending on where it's installed)
edit joystick.AppleRemote.xml (nano/vim/whatever) to change button id 1 and 2 under FullscreenVideo to BigStepForward and BigStepBack.

I cant seem to write anything to it. I'm using the usb stick.
never mind. I got it to write, but there was nothing there to begin with. But I had a back up of it so I just put it there and in the usb stick. One of them worked. Thanks

You will need to use the the following Nvidia driver: 100.14.23

I tried installing that driver all I get is a blank screen that dumps to tty1.

I can do the following and then I get pink desktop (or hard lock up) but when I reboot I start at tty1 again.

Quote:sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop

sudo modprobe -rv nvidia
sudo modprobe -v nvidia

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

I tried envyng and got the drivers removed and got the default desktop again, then used the envyng auto install and it picked 173.14.12 drivers which seem to be working.

That would be fantastic.
Particularly if usb hub and usb DVD could work as well.
(it's very fiddly on standard ATV software)

I'm trying to use component cables but I cant find where this is. How do I get to it?(x11/xorg.conf)

cj43 Wrote:I was able to get 1080i over component by using the /etc/X11/xorg.conf settings sDavilla has here. I used the one from section b and changed the HD480i to HD1080i. Please note it does go to a black screen for a couple minutes before xbmc shows up. Hopefully it will work for you also.

I found it at root/etc/x11/xorg.conf but I get a permission denied when I try to write to it.

try sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

make sure you back it up first...

sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.config.someuniquebackupname

hdmi audio working on 173.14.12?

With the other drivers you should check Xorg.0.log to see what was stopping X from loading.
Probably a good idea to blacklist the regular ubuntu nvidia drivers to stop them from loading as well.
Add the following to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:
Code:
blacklist nv
blacklist nvidia_legacy
blacklist nvidia_new
