just do this after you install the server again.
Code:
sudo apt-get install xorg-server
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc-ppa-keyring
sudo apt-get install xbmc
Now, get it to automatically login to an already existing user.
Code:
sudo apt-get install mingetty
sudo nano /etc/init/tty1.conf
Replace the line that starts with
with
Code:
exec /sbin/mingetty --autologin USERNAME tty1
where username is the name of the user.
I myself used a different setup at this point, as XBMC was a bit cranky without pulseaudio.
However, you can just add xbmc to ~/.profile , and it will run on login.
In case you run into the same audio problems that I did, run xbmc on top of openbox
Code:
sudo apt-get install openbox
At the bottom of the file, add
Code:
exec openbox-session
Now, start openbox once.
Exit by right clicking, and choosing "quit"
Now, add xbmc and pulseaudio to the openbox startup
Code:
nano ~/.config/openbox/autostart
place this inside.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
pulseaudio -D
sleep 10
xbmc
shutdown -h now
Allow shutdown without password
Code:
sudo chmod u+s /sbin/shutdown
Note that much of this is from memory - might require some tweaking.
