[mythtv-users] Xbox frontend

[Paul Greidanus]

I've been thinking of picking up an Xbox just for this app... is there 
a good document for turning a new Xbox into a Myth frontend? Including 
how to get Linux up and working.. what distro seems to work best, and 
all that, with the sole focus of making a mythfrontend?

Is there something like a knoppmyth for xbox? That would be very very 
cool

If not, is there someone out there who's done it who could throw 
something together?
