Maxime,

I tested out this patch.  It all build fine for me and i was able to run 
xbmc on the raspberry pi.  I used the yatse android app to control xmbc 
and i was able to watch some youtube videos with no issue :)

I have a few comments below.

I had to add -b to the start-stop-daemon options to background xbmc.bin 
otherwise the startup halted on this script.  Also i added -m so 
start-stop-daemon would create the pid file.  Without the -m option the 
stop command fails because the pid file does not exist.

I thought you were going to remove this patch and instead include a 
default advandcedsettings.xml for the raspberry pi.
