Installation issues / Re: Install issues... ORBITER

« on: October 10, 2008, 08:22:35 am »

Thanks for the replies.   My problem goes a little deeper than just my orbiter message, so I think its best I follow some very prudent advice (thanks colinjones) and spend a little time going through the Wiki and learning the ins and outs of LMCE before jumping right to install.  I have other hardware that works for my windows media center, that probably won't work in this edition of LMCE(IR Blaster, and my hauppage USB stick 950 tuner). 

I appologizing for jumping the gun and posting prior to actually reading the wiki and preparing in advance.  

I do have an old USB-UIRT I bought several years ago (2004 I think). I wonder if that will still work if I can find it. hehe.

Thanks again, all!

Installation issues / Install issues... ORBITER

« on: October 09, 2008, 06:00:07 pm »

Hello Everyone.

I'm not a linux novice... I've been playing off and on as a hobbyist since the early 90's.  However, I don't claim to be an expert, especially in recent years when I havent dedicated enough time to my studies of linux.

I am having a rather severe problem with LMC, however.  I am installing the all in one DVD on an HP s3100y with an 8500gs card in it.  (I had a 7600gs card earlier, but it would consistantly crash before anything was done to it. )

I now have a MSI 8500 card which boots, but I am getting a black screen window with the text "orbiter failede to setup the transparency>.  Please check if the transparen"..

If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

Sincerely,

matthew J freyman
