If you don't want to run any other programs you can just do OpenELEC. But I don't run any desktop. I have X11 and XBMC and nothing else.

I am very impressed with the stability (seen quite a few movies and series episodes with XvBA already). In fact, so impressed I am getting an E-350 solution for my standalone Xbmc setup.

darkscout Wrote:What would they have chosen from Debian? It's a 100% compiled from source very specific distro that includes literally the bare essentials. It's like being disappointed NASA didn't choose a Ford for the Moon Rover.
