[Xbox-linux-user] nvxbox - Upgrade to lenny

Hi all,

Hope you can read this in between the penis enlargement and viagra ads.
I've upgraded my xbox from debian etch (2.6.16.57 kernel)  to lenny, but I
discovered that Xorg broke.  During the upgrade, I note a switch from Xorg
7.1.1 to 7.3.  I recompiled the nvxbox drivers after getting and installing
the dev package.  While I now have a beatuious 800x600 gui screen, I have no
joy for videos, as the CPU registers 50% while at idle.  I also noted a
warning during the compile of nvxbox.

I will transfer over all the kernel sources and recompile (not sure if that
is necessary, but I recall reading somewhere that it might be).  Has anyone
else ever done this and succeeded?

If you have any questions or need any outputs to help me, please ask and I
will gladly post.

Regards,

Rob
