HTPC running KDE, Hulu desktop, XBMC, mythtv and much more.
Sorry about quality of the video. ATI graphics card, KDE and open source drivers don't get along very well, which is why mupen64 and epsxe have problems running.

Nevermind. I see it's XBMC. Hm....I'm tempted to try it out on my old xbox since I can't sell it.

@smttysmth02gt Actually it's Arch Linux.

Arch Linux is a bleeding edge distribution, so it looks a little more cutting edge than other distros. Just about everything I installed is the newest version.

It's 2 year old machine, with some cheap hardware.

X2 4800 65W CPU

2GB RAM

400 GB HDD

Biostar 6150 MB

ATI HD3450 GPU

HTPC Compucase

All together it was less than $350.

Are you running ATI proprietory drivers or open-source?

@mwcjse no it's definitely xbmc Its running on arch though

I've looked at all the linux htpc setups and yours is definitely the best looking one IMO. What distro is this you're using? It looks awesome in comparison to looking at linux mce and mythbuntu.

[smttysmth02gt]

Awesome setup you've got there. What hardware are you running this on?
