Eeeek!  

Just bought an Xbox, just bought a copy of the original MechAssault
and am about to solder the board.

I probably should have asked this question already, MythTV 0.18.1 is
working on the XBox right?  I mean, its just the debian packages isn't
it (assuming I use Xebian).  I hope so, I don't like hard work :P
