This repository has some of the configuration necessary for getting an Intel NUC D34010WYK up and running from vanilla Ubuntu.

The main interesting bit for this repository is the script to get the IR sensor working correctly with Kodi. You can find that in the system directory in two parts: 1) the script to get the IR service working, and 2) a systemd service to run the script on startup.

I start with Xubuntu Core, so download the mini.iso for the version of Ubuntu that you want to start with, then:

1. (For me only) Set the HTTP proxy on setup to be http://apt-cacher.underworld:3142 so that Apt-Cacher NG will serve as a proxy for all apt-related tasks.

2. Choose the Xubuntu minimal installation task during install, or

3. Pick the smallest number of dependencies and then, after the installer has finished, run:

    sudo apt install -y xubuntu-core^
   

I created a Makefile that I can use to install Kodi and the customized scripts and settings for my environment.

Run:

sudo apt install -y git
git clone https://github.com/fbristow/kodi-nuc
cd kodi-nuc
sudo make install
