SDL_SetVideoMode(320, 240, 32, SDL_HWSURFACE | SDL_DOUBLEBUF | SDL_FULLSCREEN);
but the game only runs in a 320x240 centered window and not at fullscreen, ¿its a problem with the openxdk?

You're asking for a mode that OpenXDK doesn't support, so you're getting the default 640x480 mode and your 320x240 screen is rendered in the centre of it - there's no stretching functionality within OpenXDK.
I am currently working on some improvements to OpenXDK, but there's no ETA on when these will be completed.
In the meantime I'd suggest you can either rework your game to support 640x480 on the xbox. Or you can carry on as you are, because you're using SDL any changes that happen behind the scenes won't affect your code.

Blitting to the screen with SDL in the OpenXDK is pretty slow. I modified the Xbox SDL driver and stripped out a lot of unnecessary things it was doing and got a much improved frame rate. I've sent the patch onto d0wnlab and edwardaux but I don't think it's been added to CVS. You can download it here if you want to try it. You'll need to rebuild the OpenXDK SDL libs and compile your game again.
PS - any info on the game your making?

Ogg can be made to work with the OpenXDK SDL_mixer - you have to use the libTremor ogg codec and rebuild SDL_mixer accordingly.
The regular ogg libs and SMPEG (for mp3) cause the xbox to lock up if you try to use those, I've not yet found time to try and debug my way through it to see what exactly the problem is yet.
