Making the adding of PPA key easier

Concerning the part about adding the PPA key, a bit easier just to:

$ sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0x6d975c4791e7ee5e
Executing: gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --secret-keyring /etc/apt/secring.gpg --trustdb-name /etc/apt/trustdb.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0x6d975c4791e7ee5e
gpg: requesting key 91E7EE5E from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com
gpg: key 91E7EE5E: public key "Launchpad PPA for XBMC for Linux" imported
gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:               imported: 1  (RSA: 1)

And you're done..

I added this to the article, it is a wiki after all. :-) --Brucevdk 12:30, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

standalone

Don't the command line instructions for Ubuntu at the top also need to include a line to install the xbmc standalone package as well?


Under SVN Repo, "Extract it to the ~/.xbmc/plugins/programs directory." Is it worth pointing out that this folder is hidden and will only be revealed after 'unhiding'? Could save some noobies (ie me) a lot of time and frustration :-)

addition to check for co

should there be a reference to check for compiz and opengl/drivers (as per Compiz_is_not_compatible_with_XBMC ?

Stabele repository seems to be empty

The stable repository is empty right now. You can use one of these:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:henningpingel/xbmc

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc-svn/ppa

I found the info on http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?t=74778
