Had to wipe my ssd and reinstall everything, previously I had Eden and neon installed, then I installed beta 1 of Frodo and all was well.
So when I did a fresh install i thought I'd just go for beta 1 and neon, however skins don't show up in add ons and even trying to install from zip a message comes up that resources don't match (can't quite remember the exact message). . . .
So what's the trick to get neon installed on Frodo (apart from Eden - neon - Frodo)
Cheers

How come the 'upgrade' route worked?
Oh well hopefully one of the nicest skins will be available sometime in the future?

The upgrade route works fine. I did the same and am running Neon (SVN) on Frodo.
I guess you should be able to download a zip from the SVN version and install that. I haven't noticed much wrong with it really, except for the progressbar when doing a library update was missing for some reason.
I happily copied that over from another skin after seeing an error in the xbmc log and although it looks a bit funky while updating - well - I don't update my database all the time so I can live with it.

I guess the upgrade worked because the Neon skin is already installed, but it is not included (like many other skins) in Frodo beta.
You could install the SVN through the passion-xbmc plugin though I am not sure if that works with Frodo beta,
I usually keep a copy of .xbmc just in case anyway and that preserves my Neon skin and settings.
