Isn't the xbox just a modified pc with an embedded and stripped version of windows? It appears the api's are based on directx. I believe there are linux version for the xbox out there that turn it onto just an ordinairy pc. The controllers are usb based, the only difference are the connectors.

handsourcedyko,

the xbox is basically a broken down pc.  Yes it runs linux. but it does not run windows.  there was a port of windows ce done fo rit, but it is not fully functioning.  it was more of a proof of concept thing. 

The xbox does not launch EXE files, it launches xbe files.  That is why there are teams at the xbox-scene that were or are dedicated to porting things to the Xbox, becaues the Xbox does not run windows games. 

Of course you can use wine under linux, but with the limited capability to doing that, and sometimes wine won't run the games either.   

The only linux that runs properly under Xbox is XDSL .  all other ones have a hard time running and are slow becuase of the original Xbox's limited resources.

I knew that it does not run exe files, but it what thought that the os was based on the kernal of windowsNT. The filesystem is believed to be a FAT12 variant. But it does use directx. (I've got it from wikipedia).

Yes, but that doesn't help much with porting

Si esta mal, has visto que binarios eran ?

Son los mismos que puse yo semanas antes en el post de SORR, y no es un port de Bennu completo, pero si el mismo que viene con el SORR de XBOX que fue portado por A600 xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
