Im still having problms getting this sorted.  I am trying to go the long way round to install (Kubuntu then LMCE CDs) to see if I have more luck.

I will then try out all of your suggestions.

Thanks for the continued help guys

I have tried to do this as instructed but when trying to install "joe" I get an error message saying this is not available.

Apologies if I am a little green in this area.

This is going straight over my head guys, but I really appreciate the help.

I'm just busy trying to update the drivers now.  I'm getting a message pop up on terminal every few seconds, does this make any sense to you?

(some numbers which change) ALSA /root/R/alsa-driver/acore/oss/pcm_oss.co:466: BUG? (v >= 0)
                                             as above                                                 457: BUG? (max >=0)
                                             as above                                                 963: BUG? (err >= 0)

I assume that the mention of PCM it is referring to an audio issue?

Thanks again!

I will try all of this out tonight.  Will be doing a clean install 1st.

Wow!

That was quick.

Thanks a lot, I'll try this later.  I also have a problem with sound, I'll post this under a new topic, although basically I have no sound output at all using a SB Live! 24 bit external with SPDIF.

Hi All.

I am a total Linux newbie but am a little downhearted that the installation of MCE was not a straightforward as I'd hoped.

I have an nVidia 8500gt card and following installation, after displaying the Kubuntu screen etc correctly, the AV wizard starts and the image is off centre with about 25% of the screen dissappearing off the right edge of the screen.   On the cetering options screen I cant move the screen to fill the gap on the left of the screen as it thinks this is already at the edge of the screen.

I am using the DVI output of the card and outputting to a 42'' LCD.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance.
