Be aware that master is an unstable development branch.
If configure fails it makes no sense to execute make. Check the error messages, most likely it complains about a missing package. See READMA.ubuntu for changes and install required packages.
What do you mean with not getting a terminal?

I guess I didn't pay attention to see if configure fails.I'll just look again again to see what I missed on the configure.
When I hit ctrl+alt+F1 my screen goes blank and the TV says no signal. I then hit ctrl+alt+F7 (I think) and it brings me back into XBMC

I switched to Unity 2D manager and I dont have any issues with video freezing etc. I tried to fluxbox and it was fine but I couldnt suspend etc from XBMC when running fluxbox.

I got my make to work by disabling pulse and crystalhd. But I installed tonight with DESTDIR = $HOME/xbmc. Then I did a reboot to make sure the everything works properly. When I go to system info it shows a compile date of 4/24. This doesn't seem right to me. If it isn't right, then where did my install get installed to?
I have a XBMCbuntu installation. Do I need to be using DESTDIR or is the default for the builds the same as on a live install?

@Vanilla - try launching xbmc from terminal using the $HOME/xbmc/usr/bin/xbmc and see what version you get.
@Fernet - I have moved to Fluxbox and it gives me zero flitches, Unity 2D still had issues with jerky video.

git clone FM + git eden checkout + fluxbox window manager -- gives me excellent video on my GT240 on 12.04 standard installation with Nvidia 295 driver.
