Hi,
I'm having trouble installing my HTPC. I've tried with XBMCbuntu, but after some issues I switched to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I've installed it on a Dell Optiplex 740 (2.2 GHz AMD Athlon with on-board graphics card). I have a Zotac Nvidia 8400GS plugged in, needed for HDMI support to the 4 year old Philips TV. The BIOS disables the build in card as soon as it detects an additional card (it says).
After installing XBMC-, Xu- or plain Ubuntu the system reboots, the splash screen appears, the progress bar lights up one time and then my TV tells me it's got no signal...
All live CDs operated flawless.
Could use some help hear I guess...
