you can update your dashboard without getting banned from live.

yah, just get a game like unreal champ or brute force. Make sure the ethernet cable is unplugged and hit "play live". Your dash will update and you will not get banned because you are not plugged in.

settings changed from the settings menu are stored in theConfig and i believe these aren't in the xips at all but located somewhere else (i wouldn't have a clue where)...

i haven't actually checked, but i think it does retain settings.

Ok.. all I am trying to do is add one menu item to the main menu of the xbox dash. All I want to add is "Linux" under the "settings" tab. All i want "Linux" to do is launch the xbe for my Linux I have installed on the hdd. Can someone help me please. I know this cant be too hard for some of you considering a lot of you are adding tons of sub folders and stuff. Thanks in advance!

If xbxtools wont build your xbx file, check your save settings for your dds file.
dxt1 with no mipmaps. Try that.

I used the red dash patcher, edited the confic file in the default.xap to what i want, resigned it, and put the files on my box, and i get error 21, what could i have done wrong?

you need to apply the xbx files included in the package into your xip files for the complete conversion. Otherwise the xboxlogo will be green, and the hilite.

just confirmed that any changes made through any MS dash (original or hacked) will carry the changes over to the all your MS dashes (someone was asking this before).

the great thing about hacking up the MS dash is that most of the work has been done for us and it's already got nice features (in built dvd player, remote capabilities, audio player, memory manager, soundtrack manager and settings can be changed). we just need to get it a little further and it's a complete package with FTP support and auto listing. it's even "skinnable" altho it's not so easy at this stage.

Got the true blue dash working just fine, but how can the blue haze that fills the screen be removed to produce a more clear dash look? Is there a .xbx file that needs to be edited or are the changes to be made on the xboxdash.xbe file? Need some help

regards,
