Hello, I am a linux newbie. Just installed linux today on an Acer 3680 laptop. Then spent 3 hours figuring out how to install xbmc (not available in synaptic)
Now when I try to start xbmc, it gives following error
xbmc needs hardware accelerated OpenGL rendering
and wants me to install appropriate driver.
I have VGA compatible controller:[b] Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)[/b]
I am seeing the screen, so doesn't that mean driver is installed already?
synaptic says I have many intel-related items installed. Here's screenshot:
