i am very very interested about playing xlink on my xbmc dash. but i have a slight problem here. i have it set up on my xbox. then i run the engine. everything goes fine so far. engine loads and etc. ok i try to connect to xlink on xbmc. says there isnt a connection. wen i configured kai on xbmc there was a "engine ip adress" thing that i just left as 192.168.1.100. also theres another problem. my xbox has a ethernet cord going from the router in antoher room and through walls in my room. thats hooked up to my xbox. my computer has a wireless card. in side of it. but i can ftp perfectly. also i was trying to use the linux kai. and i installed xlil. and tried to run it. nothing popped up just the icon bounced. then went away. didnt load. so i dont know what to do. please help if you can. but for xlil i just did ./install.sh nothing else. but ya help would be nice! thanks in advance.

the engine ip in xbmc is the ip of your computer running the kai engine .. did you download the java UI for your computer ?

# Click the Start menu button on the Windows taskbar.
# Click Run... on this menu.
# Type cmd in the text box that appears. A command prompt window launches on the desktop.
# In this command window, type ipconfig /all. Details are shown for each of the computer's network adapters. Computers installed with VPN software or emulation software will possess one or more virtual adapters.
# The IP Address field states the current IP address for that network adapter.

just like that :]
