- alanwww1 - 2011-11-10 Stay tuned for my much much simplified guide :-) - rbrohman - 2011-11-10 Great news! I had to RMA my Intel mobo meaning I've got to start from scratch again on one of my boxes so the timing is perfect! - alanwww1 - 2011-11-11 Here is my dramatically simplified and updated guide: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=114368 - digitalAir - 2011-11-11 Allan, I'll read your new guide in more detail later this evening, but I noticed it references oneiric. Unfortunately, I've spent the last 2 weeks battling a nic problem... I can't get the nic on my mobo to work with the r8169 realtek driver that comes with the oneiric install iso's. (even built the r8168 driver from realtek and rebuilt the initrd image on the cd)... argh! (probably a 64-bit issue) I did run into a slight issue with this post's instructions that I thought you would be interested in.... effective yesterday the maintainer of the libva git repository split out the intel drivers into a separate repository, so 2 git's are required as such: Code: cd ~ (also note the path change in the git's) - alanwww1 - 2011-11-11 It is much more simple in my new guide. You won't ever need to compile anything. |
