Thanks Peter,<br>I think im going to go with the mod chip as it seems the most fool proof method. The <font class="text-path">Xecuter 2.6 CE Mod Chip & Xapter</font> (<a href="http://www.kanection.co.uk/product.php/456/27/">
http://www.kanection.co.uk/product.php/456/27/</a>) looks quite good, I think I'm going to go with that.<br><br>And good to know the performance is ok, did you give much swap space?<br>Also, it does say on the xbox-linux site its a 10/100 NIC but I will keep a watch see what performance I can get out of it. What a puzzle.
<br><br>Thanks again,<br>Sam.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 01/01/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Peter Baker</b> <<a href="mailto:baker.p@gmail.com">baker.p@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
can't remember the exact chip I used, seems the place I got mine from, <a href="http://www.whitedog.co.uk/" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.whitedog.co.uk/</a> is not selling mod chips anymore. Guess a good bet could be ebay.
<br><br>Performance wise, under mythTV, didn't seem to ever be a problem. I'd imagine that if you're just using it for file server then that'd take a lot less overheads anyway. Don't wuote me on this but I'm pretty sure the NIC is only 10 not 10/100 though.
