I've updated XBMC, and edited the ATV2 hosts file as noted (including blank line at the end). However, XBMC is still crashing back to Front Row every few minutes.

Do I *also* need to do the NitroTV bit to force the updates off? Since editing the hosts file, it isn't prompting me for the update.

Do I now need to re-boot the ATV2 completely? And if so, now that there's an un-tethered boot, should I just also re-jailbreak for the untethered version?

Is the new Nito fix an updated nitoTV or this updatebegone? I'm using whichever version of nitoTV I've had since I updated plugins a week ago or so and I can confirm that the disable updates through nitoTV is not working now (I'm sure everyone else knows that too.)

Edit 1: I installed updatebegone....restarted AppleTV (not just lowtide) but it's still crashing here.
Edit 2: Hopefully fixed...been running for 13 or so minutes now. I installed updatebegone, then enabled updates in nitoTV (basically removed localhost for updates in host file) and it seems to be working ok after a reboot of AppleTV. I'm crossing my fingers

If you're comfortable with ssh you can login and run "apt-get update && apt-get ugprade" to make sure all your packages are current. Outdated packages are likely causing a few people issues.

In some cases the "apt-get upgrade" will fail to install a nitotv update because it's being held back, so you'll need to run "apt-get dist-upgrade". Should be safe if all that's being held back is a nitotv update.

Re: the updatebegone and manually editing /etc/hosts, I've never had to manually edit the hosts file - updatebegone has always worked. Anyone still having issues after installing updatebegone should verify all their packages are current at least.
