The Xenium team is at a disadvantage because they're concentrating efforts on OS 2.0.  The longer that takes, the more they fall behind in working on 1.6 boxes.  Time is money.  They first team to market a 1.6 solution will be the one that new modders will go to off the bat.  It's just common sense.  OzXodus needs to get off their ass, fire their PR guy, release OS 2.0 or at least tell us exactly how far off it is, and get cracking on 1.6.

Well, you can say the same thing about Xecuter then... with working on X3 and all.

Not to sure about other teams, but I highly doubt long breaks are teken with the amount of competition there is today.   smile.gif

Due to booyeah's recent discovery of the much anticipated V1.6 motherboard it appears that things are about to get a little bit more interesting for the Xbox community.

OzXodus have been fortunate enough to aquire booyeah's V1.6 console for our research into what changes have been made to the console's motherboard. As many have already speculated it appears that major changes to the LPC have been made, our initial findings are indicating a redundant LPC with all 4 LAD lines no longer present.

We have found that the d0 point is in the general area of the d0 found in previous motherboard revisions.

We call on the other teams to confirm these initial results when they are able to aquire V1.6 motherboards for their own testing.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank booyeah and kris for their assistance in obtaining these motherboards for our testing, we will keep you updated on developments via our website as they become available.

But it's not all bad news, we are very confident that we will have a Xenium with Xenium-OS V2.0 booting on a V1.6 in the very near future (72 HOURS???). ;-)



Seems like Xenium might not have any problems with 1.6.  smile.gif

Well, time will tell!

Not to be a bitch (okay, to be a bitch)...but it'd be nice if they had V2.0 booting on MY Xbox in seventy-two hours.

today, i played with the I2C bus.

the I2C temperatue Sensor dissapeared.
or i have false adress, who knows.

i attached a dump of a startup of the I2C codes.

btw:
Interesting new findinds in the new Bios already.
and it looks so, that there will be no "universal" bios now, which works on all boxes.
1.6 will need seperate Bioses.

THE PIC is here
the Video encoder moved to 0x70
Temperature gone
no 10 (or 20) seconds Temperature askings from PIC anymore (logically)
The Video Encoder Traffic is "bulk" and not BYTE/WORD anymore.

and from my feeling:
it looks like "encrypted"

EEprom hdd key also changed, but already idendified and found.


1.6 need separate bios seems to be confirmed also by Smartxx.

Research bios: Gueux 'tryme' 1.6 Debug
As you know, we're a french Team and actually it's very difficult for us to help and work on the new Xbox v1.6 (we're trying to bring back one in France). However, as kernel 5838 is already released we're working on it.

The result is that we have integrated Xcalibur support in a flashable 512k debug bios.
We need help from other team to test it, if they have the possibility :
- This bios is forced for Xcalibur so don't try it on other versions (v.1.4/v1.5 and less).
- Kernel number implemented : 1.00.1600.01
- Do not split it in 256k
- You can launch unsigned XBE.

We hope that the other teams will want to give us the result of their tests with this bios.
Thanks
Team Gueux.Net

Wait I am confused? What Bios should I use?  

The new chipset allows unsigned code there is no need to mod your xbox now.  MS is now using 4983 to support all there chipsets.  I heard you just pop in slayers auto installer disc and it should work.
