remote and scrappers, plugings, skins

[UmanManMember]

Dear Sir,
I have successfully installed GeeXBox 3.1 64bit on my HTPC (E8200 C2D, 1GB RAM, 64GB SSD 470 Samsung, nVidia GT220 1GB RAM).
However I was forced to install manually nvidia drivers from telnet, as GB was not displaying any menu after startup logo of GB.
The worst part is I can not install any plugins, skins or media scrappers. I just get info “install unsuccessful”.
What is wrong? Please help me fix this.

Also I have to mention that my Microsoft IR USB receiver and Microsoft remote (discovered as:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0471:0815 Philips (or NXP) eHome Infrared Receiver
)
is not working fully. I can only browse through the menu by arrows on remote, no enter key, no home key, no back key, no menu dvd, key at all. No volume keys are working, no channel change keys are working either. No other keys than arrows at all.
I would also like to know if my Nvidia accellerates video playback and menu at all, right now I do not see any info about it all. Please help.

Take care,
P. G.

I went to 32bit ISO, but my cpu1 is near 100%, and VDPAA and VDPAU are turned on in settings (I use GT220 1GB nvidia). I also installed nvidia drivers, because from the start I only saw black screen.
vainfo shows this:
# vainfo
libva info: VA-API version 0.33.0
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/va/nvidia_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit

Help needed.

It’s most likely a problem of xbmc.org. I’ve seen this on RaspberryPi as well and it is caused by bad MD5 checksums provided by the server. You might also run into the situation that not addons are shown at all. I guess we have to wait until they get this fixed.

32bit ISO of GeexBox does not have problems with plugins, skins and media scrappers.
