Well i used info from
http://www.knizefamily.net/russ/software/xbox.html(minus the kernel
upgrade cuz you cant do that on a E image) so i could do
the upgrade to etch and then, as Skitals was saying, while trying to compile
it myself i installed more dependencies  that were listed at
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Xbox_Frontend_Compile_with_SVN:

apt-get install libdbd-mysql-perl libdbi-perl libmysqlclient12
libnet-daemon-perl libplrpc-perl mysql-client mysql-common pwgen
ttf-freefont
apt-get install qt3-dev-tools liblame-dev liblame0 liblircclient-dev
alsa-oss libqt3-mt-dev libqt3-mt-dev gcc g++ libqt3-mt-mysql
libqt3-i18n
apt-get install subversion
apt-get install distcc
apt-get install libqt3-compat-headers
apt-get install xmltv

i had to change some program names, cant remember which, but im sure u can
figure it out!
Hope this helps!

Cheers!
