I managed to install a basic version of Arch Linux on it, configured my external hard drive, samba shares. However, I'm having https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=89338 a hard time getting XMBC to run. I installed the xbmc package, xorg-xinit to make auto start work and then by trial and error ended up installing xorg-server and a few other dependencies while trying to make it start with systemctl start xbmc; even if I'm not a 100% sure that I needed (I'm coming from a raspberrypi/xbmc configuration). Running http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=196094 systemctl status xbmc (after trying to start it up) leaves me with: Code: [emailprotected] ~ $ sudo systemctl status xbmc

You cannot run a GUI app without a desktop. –goldilocks♦ Jun 1 '15 at 23:20 What is showing on your HDMI display? –Bex Jun 2 '15 at 7:16 Hi Bex, the console session is showing on the HDMI display. –frupfrup Jun 2 '15 at 8:26 add a comment| 3 Answers 3 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote accepted You need the display number.
