Hi,

did you follow the wiki page about howto install LinuxMCE, and the script sequence ?

http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Installing_0810

sudo su - #This might ask for the password you specified earlier during the install of kubuntu.
apt-get update
apt-get -y -f dist-upgrade
wget -c http://deb.linuxmce.org/ubuntu/new-installer-beta2.tar.gz
tar xvf new-installer-beta2.tar.gz
cd new-installer
./pre-install-from-repo.sh
./mce-install.sh
./post-install.sh
reboot

I hope this could help you.


Regards

Luke

couple of questions

1 do you have a DVB card in the system if so remove
2 is there onboard video if so remove your second card and re-enable the onboard
and perform a clean install that way
once done then add your second video card disabling the onboard or then add your dvb card

Thanks replying back
I tried the first suggestion but I think I had bad install.

Mandingo: You know what, I am back to LinuxMCE just because of your posts and your dedication to have the DVB drivers running in LinuxMCE.

To answer your questions
1- Yes I do have DVB-S Nexus-S, installed. I have 2 cards I might need your help installing both on the same system.
2- I don't get any error installing the first part of the OS, the system boots just fine, installing LinuxMCE casing the issure. now that I have a fresh install, I will try the beta2 suggested installation.

thanks for your help, I will report back...
