Okay guys, you have me completely confused.... According to this link<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/Software_Method_HOWTO">http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/Software_Method_HOWTO</a><br>
<br>
"The Software Method takes advantage of a flaw in the Microsoft
dashboard to make your Xbox Linux-compatible. Unfortunately this flaw
has been fixed in newer <br>
versions of the dashboard. <b>A Dashboard version of 4920 or below is required.</b><a href="http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/Xebian_HOWTO">http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/Xebian_HOWTO</a>"<br><br>
Yet you guys have said you have "modded your xbox" (in a discussion
about running mythfrontend on an xbox) with the following link which
lead me to belive that this was the steps I should take in that link to
modify my xbox to run Xibian and mythfrontend. <br>

Now I have already followed some of the steps in that link (ie... i
updated my dashboard before install... now im greater then 4920 which
the first link said was bad... doh!) My xbox version is either a 1.1,
1.2, or 1.3. can this <a href="http://biline.ca/xbox_uxe.htm">http://biline.ca/xbox_uxe.htm</a> give me the
"softmod" I need to install Xibian and run mythfrontend? will i still
be able to run my xbox games? thanks for your help <br>

<br>><br>That guide is pretty much exactly what I did. A comment on the hardware<br>side, it's way more economical to make your own USB to Xbox cable, I got<br>a cheap cable from a game rental store (I think it was $4) and used and
<br>old USB cable I had lying around. What it allowed me to do is make the<br>cable to hook the Xbox controller up to the computer, but I also used<br>the Xbox side of the cable to wire in a USB hub into the Xbox so I can
<br>use a USB keyboard with Linux. Makes life a lot easier...<br><br>Tom<br><br>
