[RELEASE] Alaska Revisited (not 100% Eden compatible)

Okay. I am running XBMC 10.1 GIT:C8405DB (Compiled: Feb 22, 2011).

I have the issue of no icons...

How did u get dark skin? Custom?

No. The dark skin is available under the Settings --> Appearance settings... you can change it to Aksala (notice the letter switch). It is a dark theme included with the skin.

But I am still looking to find how to get my home screen images back!

I'm having the same issue, running my own git build from 10 days ago. Gonna compile from current git just now, cause I noticed this in the debug log when loading:

10 days ago is too old and why I recommended the official nightlie build from 21/2/11.

Hi Hitcher

Just wanted to register and say thanks for the great work you've done. I've been on sick leave for the last week and I've spent my time setting up XBMC and your skin. Still got a bit to go before I'm totally satisfised (haven't figured out how to enable the lyrics button etc), but browsing these forums is of big help. I noticed that the newest version enables custom items on the main menu, which I loved! As others have noted though, my images for each category was missing, so I reverted back to an older version. Hope to see the new version working soon. Again, thanks for all your effort put into this skin!

You need this version of XBMC to be able to use the new home style.

Lyrics will work 'out of the box' unless you want to use a different lyric script than the default in which case simply set it in Alaska's settings.

Thank you, the menu works perfectly now. My problem with the lyrics is that I cannot find the button itself. From what I understand a lyrics button is supposed to show up in the OSD, like subtitles do for movies (subtitles work by the way). But when I start a song and press "M" I still just get the regular buttons. I've tried using two different lyrics scripts. I'm sure I'm missing something VERY basic...

I use xbmc-live on a small acer aspire revo. To use the new Alaska is there a repository that is this up to date? Or should i compile xbmc from source and install?
