Hi,
Try using the new xdsl0.6 final release from the xdls wiki.

It uses a newer version of xromwell which should solve your booting errors. Ftp instructions are included in the iso, if you extract using winrar etc.

If you've still got problems with loading xdsl, then try loading it from unleashx, as it has better compatibility with some modchip bioses and the linux loader (xromwell).

Hi,
It's possible that you could get the resolutions that you want, but it's kinda involved.

The problem is with Xfbdev ( the x server that xdsl uses by default). It's lightweight, quick to boot and has pretty good compatibility for old and new style tv's and monitors. However it also often will often only work properly for one or or two of the higher resolutions depending on what your display is. That's one reason that xfree86 and xorg are in the upgrades menu.

So you will need to upgrade to xfree86 or xorg, then edit /etc/x11/XF86Config-4 for xfree86 or  /etc/x11/xorg.conf for xorg to the modeline setting suitable for your tv and the resolution you want.
Ive put in a load of modeline examples some of which might work for you. But chances are you will have to search for one to suit your tv.

Good luck.

Hey guys, I just downloaded and installed xDSL on my chipped Xbox, and for some reason, it says "Can't find KNOPPIX file system". I double-checked the linuxboot.cfg file multiple times now...

It states...

title XDSL
kernel KNOPPIX/linux24
initrd KNOPPIX/minirt24.gz
append root=/dev/ram0 init=/etc/init rw video=xbox:640x480 frugal quiet kbd-reset

I have my files set up in the KNOPPIX folder as:

E:/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX
E:/KNOPPIX/linux24
E:/KNOPPIX/minirt24.gz
E:/linuxboot.cfg

Everything boots okay with the Xromwell 2.4 xbe...but as soon as DSL is done looking for USB devices, it does a quick scan (I'm guessing to find KNOPPIX filesystem) and comes back with Cant find KNOPPIX filesystem...

What am I doing wrong here...? Please help. It would be greatly appreciated...Thank you
