Installation issues / Re: Cannot get a screen on Media Director [SOLVED]

« on: December 04, 2007, 02:31:06 pm »

For me it was the xorg.conf video driver. I changed it from nv to nvidia and that fixed it without having to install the new driver - even on my 7300 card.

Now I'm getting the "cannot regenerate skin for orbiter message" but that's another problem.....

Installation issues / Re: Cannot get a screen on Media Director

« on: December 03, 2007, 11:55:23 am »

I've been a MythTV user for a couple of years now but this weekend I decided to blow the install away and give LinuxMCE a try.

I'm getting the same issue with the blank screen and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with the Media Directors. After the core was up and running I network-booted my Media Director (Athlon x64, nVidia 7300) which seemed to do its stuff OK. It took a while creating the OS image, rebooted and when it switched to graphical mode all I got was a blank screen. There was no output on either the SVideo or VGA connectors.

Any ideas on what's going on? Is just booting off the network all that is required or is there some configuration to do?

I'm hoping I can get this working as I've been looking forward to it and it seems I am so close.....
