under power saving, the shutdown option is only listing hibernate and suspend, should there not be more options? is that why it will not shut down?

If you want to squeeze some extra performance out of your Atom, you should compile XBMC specifically for the Atom with these GCC flags:

"-march=core2 -mfpmath=sse -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer"

core2: The closest thing to an atom until GCC 4.5 is out.
mfpmath=sse: The Atom calculates floating point math faster using SSE than using 387.
ffast-math: Creates faster code but ignores IEEE or ISO specifications for math functions (which XBMC does not need follow anyway).
fomit-frame-pointer: Avoids the instructions to save, set up and restore frame pointers. (Also makes it impossible to debug, but I'm sure the devs would need cleanly compiled build for that anyway.

Very good idea, JumJum!! Let's hope that it will be available soon... Nod

Could the next version (v8) include the W7 networking fix please?

Which fix are you talking about?

Something else. I need some of you help. The livecd's I'm building use debian live: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianLive

I'm trying to use the finish-install.d method to fix some configuration files at the end of the installer with this script. The script should read the custom user that is entered during the installation:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
xbmcUser=$(getent passwd 1000 | sed -e 's/\:.*//')
if [ "$xbmcUser" != "xbmc" ] ; then
in-target rm -rf /home/xbmc/
in-target sed -i "s/home\/xbmc/home\/$xbmcUser/g" /etc/smb.conf
in-target sed -i "s/USER=xbmc/USER=$xbmcUser/g" /etc/default/sabnzbdplus
fi

The script is executed during the finish-install.d phase only the $xbmcUser variable is empty. Anyone of you know how to set a variable with the custom user that is used during the setup/installation?

Networking with W7 and XBMC 9.11 doesnt work properly Sad

The 'core2' flag only applies to Atom 330 cpu's. This would not apply to an Atom 230 (as in the Acer Revo R1600) which is single-core.

Thanks for the compile flags, though, I'm anxious to try it out!

Thanks. I tried to add karmic-security but debian live starts complaining about double repo's. So I suggest with the latest packages included this issue might already be fixed.
