Xbox Linux Project ..Look MA, no hands!

"Look at the guy that broke the XBOX security algorithm for a comp sci doctorate with 50 dollars US in equipment and 3 weks time!"

What security algorithm ???? I think you should read his .pdf file written in his OWN words on what he really did to this mass produce cheap box . But the Linux guys think it is going to be one of the ways they can increase the number of systems out there running the other brand.

Here you go badmagicnumber....

Xbox Linux Project
»www.linuxdevices.com/new ··· 101.html

The Xbox is a gaming console by Microsoft. It consists of very powerful IBM-PC-based hardware, runs a stripped-down version of the Windows 2000 kernel and, for anti-piracy reasons, allows only games to run.

The Xbox Linux Project aims to provide a version of GNU/Linux for the Xbox, so that it can be used as an ordinary computer. Linux should make use of all Xbox hardware and allow to install and run software from standard i386 Linux distributions.

An Xbox running Linux may be very useful as a desktop computer, as a (web) server or as a node in a Linux cluster.
