The chances are not good, and anyway we don't have access to most of the content available online in the US or Europe. When I found that my Samsung TV wasn't really smart, I bought a Zotac HTPC and put Ubuntu on it. It is a real pain in the neck if I want to use it as a desktop computer, and XBMC also doesn't have much of a point without online and offline content, although it is nice to look at. -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
