Users / Control Question

« on: December 25, 2007, 07:03:47 pm »

Just setup a linuxMCE box to check it out.  I currently do not have a remote so I'm using the PC mouse in the meantime.

The problem I have is once I play any kind of media I cannot seem to stop it, or get back to the main screen until is stops.

Is this because I am only using a standard 3 button mouse? or is this just a function of LinuxMCE?

Thank you.

Installation issues / Change UI

« on: December 25, 2007, 04:39:37 pm »

This should be an easy one.

I just installed and chose to use UI2,  it now apears my graphics card isn't going to be able to handle it.  I am getting this error "Orbitor failed to initialize OpenGL" after going through the initial AV setup and stops.

Is there a way I can set it to use UI1?

I am asuming the web interface will do the trick but I can't seem to find it in there 

Thank you.

Compatible Products & Services / Re: LinuxMCE Hardware packs for newbies

I think it's a great idea to have at least of list of recommended hardware.  I've just discovered linuxMCE and just started researching what it will take to set one up.  I don't want to spend $800+ for a pre-built Fiire system.  I have the ability to do it for much less, plus it's much more rewarding to tell people that "I built this".

I've already spent hours trying to determine what I will need browsing through the Wiki's and message boards.  It would be nice if there was a list of some possible combinations to use describing the differences in using the cheapest from to the most expensive.
