So, I have a 3.6Ghz P4
2 gig's RAM
ATI Fire GL V3100 with 128 Meg's RAM
Ubuntu 10.04
I just downloaded the XBMC and Ubuntu files today, so I assume they are the newest stable versions.
The XBMC interface is very laggy and slow. (even at 1024x768 it's pretty bad)
I read through this forum and others, and can't seem to get a correct video driver installed and working (I am no linux expert by any means).
I downloaded the ATI FireGL driver for Linux from ATI's site, but when I run the install file, it does some stuff, then just stops/goes away. Doesn't seem to have installed anything at all. I ran it by simply double clicking it.
If I go to the Hardware Drivers section, it doesn't show any installed. And XBMC system doesn't show any ATI video card info either.
Please help me O' expert's of XBMC/Ubuntu/ATI
:confused2:
