Apart from the system hangs and freezes, what are your further experiences with running mythbuntu on your fit PC box?: - any experience with the performance when watching and recording live analogue TV? I don't actually use it for live TV. I am running Mythbuntu 9.10 and using it for watching video...

Thanks Denis.

But how do I resolve this?

I have set the power management settings so that the PC should be "always on". How is it then going into suspend or hibernate?

I am experiencing fairly regular system hangs/freezes running Mythbuntu 9.10 (using the additional installation instructions from this thread). I have set my power management settings so that the pc does not go into any powersave type mode when it is idle. If I come back to the mcahine a couple of h...

Cool. I've tried a few different HTPC set ups so far with this bit of kit (Boxee, XBMC.

I am having terrible trouble getting Boxee to work with the fit-pc2. If I use 8.04 then boxee wont play online content (youtube etc), if I use 9.04 then online content works ok but downloaded movies do not, they are all pink and green and unwatchable. The only option I haven't tried is 8.10 but I ca...

I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 following the guide on the Wiki and have now also got Boxee up and running. Now, time to use a remote control so I can get rid of the clunky USB keyboard.... ...
