Yeah, but I thought he was talking about the gentoox MCE that has mythtv
ready to go.. from that manual:

Requirements
------------

* An Xbox with a drive of at least 20GB. The installation will fail if you
have a stock
Xbox hard drive.
* A modchip.
* A DVD remote kit.
* An Xbox controller (Hereafter referred to as an Xpad).

(A keyboard is optional but HIGHLY recommended)



Are you saying that a person could just install the gentoox pro version and
then emerge mythtv?  If so, that'd be a cool solution.


I would still rather just get the debian repsitories working though...
