Quite a wild project. I'd suggest checking out the linux forums.

Uh, since the XBOX doesn't have a midi synth built in (right?) what would be the point?  You couldn't get any sound out of it.

Ha! I wasn't sure about that.
Since XBOX is based a lot on PC hardware, I tought some form of MIDI synth would be present.

I have to verify that point...

On the following WEB site:

http://www.bestwebbu...pare/id/4075761

in the specifications, about sound processor:

"Custom 3-D audio processor, 256 Audio Channels, 3D Audio, Midi/DLS2 support, AC3 encoded game"

MIDI support???

It must have MIDI because of the bonus original old game versions present in Prince of Persia and Wolfenstein which use midi
