I want to get this thread some life , no posts on something with linux is sad in my opinion. I spent yesterday getting Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron (i think) up and running with everything i needed codecs Compiz fusion and ushare for sharing to my xbox360. Then i tried out this uxrip i had to install a few things to get it to compile and it did not tell me what things it was missing so i just installed some more compiling things and libraries the most common ones i could think of , i think i ended up putting g++ and gcc 4.1 on their and it worked but i installed a few other things too anyways after it compiled i ran the command to rip the game in my Kreon drive it ripped no problem , and then i issued the command with a blank DVD in my drive to burn the game.
sudo growisofs -use-the-force-luke=dao -use-the-force-luke=break:1913760 -dvd-compat -speed=2 -Z /dev/cdrom2=game.iso cdrom may be different on your computer mine is actually cdrom1 dont know why it says 2
that is a different game and with the Gamelookup option setup the rip should find the game name but im not worried about that , anyways it gives you a final.iso in whatever folder you specify , and when you burn just change directories too the one with the game in it and you dont have to type the entire directory listing out , this worked just fine except i am using memorex discs and have noticed after going back and trying them all even my Windows burned games on the memorex discs will not always boot , but anyways all the games boot i thought it was a linux problem with the trouble booting but it turns out memorex are not good for 360 backups , i will also try burning at a higher speed next time see if that helps maybe it will , i burned all my other games at 8x and they boot better. Make sure dvd-rw-tools is installed , and setup a root password then issue the command SU and type in the pass in the command line so you will have full write access to everything , makes it easier and you should not need the sudo at the begginning of the growisofs command. This has given me a reason to ditch windows again and i thank you Klewan for the progam and whoever posted the info on it. More posts people i know i am not the only Linux user in this forum other people use it also. If people are turned off because of fear of the command line get over it already , if you learn the command line you can get anything done faster than in windows ANYTHING , all programs have a command line backend and sometimes the frontend does not even have all the options available to you , one example off the top of my head in windows would be winrar if you want to skip the crc check you have to issue a command on the promp , of course windows has a weak ass shell.
