xbox 360 running Ubuntu on Harddisk

[EforEpicFail]

King Kong Exploit? Nice work, you know there is a way were u can just boot yoir xbox by pressing the eject button to power on and then put the cd in? Its alot easier i think, and people on here are dumb, its called plugging in a mouse and keyboard

[grogmaninteractive]

Is it necessary use the solder on some internal part?

[Teckman20]

People that only know gaming ( hardware,software n00bs ), i'm sure u guys will reply some ugly words but...the top 2 comments aren't that good...maybe the linux distro ( ubuntu ) made the xbox360 to run different from its original "setup" .

[kyismaster]

Dude, Typing with your xbox controler down just made this unbelievable.

[itsDefying]

@kyismaster AHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAH­AA

plug a USB keyboard into your Xbox, then talk shit.

[kyismaster]

@itsDefying If you could just plug in your keyboard into the xbox 360 then whats the point of microsoft selling texting kits for controllers? tell me that.

[theif519]

King Kong Exploit?

[KRHEN5]

why is it allways the King Kong they are using??

[tallyhoman911]

can it play linux games like sauerbraten? :D

[DerGraf1997]

Password is xbox xD

[xan1242]

Actually that red ring shows disk activity.

[asgon080]

@Surrido ist echt cool, aber was sind die voraussetzungen für die xbox? (sprich welche software-version) und was kann man dann damit machen, wenn dieses ubuntu drauf ist? Die Xbox noch als PC benutzen oder kommt noch was dazu? Wieviel MB-Ram hat die Xbox eigentlich?

[Hugobros3]

ok lets fix red ring xboxes and uses them as server :p

[theqrokz]

do you need mods for this to work?

[ConsumerInspector]

can u get banned from xbox live for this? does this only work on a jtagged or flashed xbox 360 console?

[visualeffectschannel]

@ConsumerInspector how can XBOX Live know that ur running Ubuntu?

Ubuntu has no connection with XBOX Live ;)

[ripin150]

@visualeffectschannel MS can scan your hard ware, they know what you run and dont. They are a creepy company.

[visualeffectschannel]

@ripin150 if you are running the firmware, and Ubuntu is not running on the firmware, so it has no drivers that does that, UNLESS they are so desperate that they made a single module that keeps on checking what's running.

[ConsumerInspector]

hi can you go on the internet on it wirelessly with xbox 360 wireless adapter?

[Omarscape]

@ConsumerInspector i doubt it since you can't use the xbox wireless adapter on any OS

[techbeast34]

His Password is Xbox.

[techbeast34]

@ImNotSoll

Their Russians. They can do anything. They got Mac OS running on a PC.

[o0julek0o]

@techbeast34 i running that ! i got Mac OS leopard on the samsung all in one PC

ok , im not russian but im Polish ! thats close lol!

[ImNotSoll]

wrong. wrong. wrong. FAKE

[ECCY101]

tutorial nao !!!!!

[EurichChankov]

was this all disabled after the 7371 kernel along with jtags?

[k19dj20]

isnt it just boot from cd drive, seems slow and look at memory ###.#MB

[kevins1310]

u sold ur cpu lol? i'm thinking in do the same thing...

[MrMecrob1]

all ive seen is people starting it on the xbox my question is how does it act with installing programs, and can you plug stuff into the USB's that it can recognize.

[etoangfavoriteko]

The problem is, how can you get it back?

[Brickstin]

How in the hell? Hay.. How did you do that whats this exploit? can this type of technique be use to install Windows XP or Mac OSes?

[garretts228]

I wonder if that xbox ever red ringed?

[wkdw1ll1ams]

@garretts228 no linux booter tells the smc to do that.

[slayerzmoody]

@garretts228 That's a software error. Not the normal Overheat error.

[garretts228]

@slayerzmoody I know... I said I wonder if it ever did. Chill bro.

[TheTailor25]

Lol , Red Ring but Xbox is running

[marybob321]

@TheTailor25 its the ubuntu logo

[pi0masaki]

@TheTailor25

Its not red ringed, it looks that way but 1 light is red, next is orange, next is off, last is green. It does this while linux is running. Threw me off when mine did it at first, but it seems this way in most of the videos I have since watched about it.

[etoangfavoriteko]

@TheTailor25 Software Emulation Error. Something's overriding the 360 software.

[ZronZ]

@TheTailor25 it's because the xbox is windows based and obviously can't understand the linux running through it, so it goes WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF, red ring lmao.

[farts123123]

@TheTailor25 well ya its still running red ring it is not just 1 error that's on the xbox that kills ur box its composed of many errors like if ur xbox vga cable is not plugged in or corrupt memory

[ECCY101]

@TheTailor25 because its linux, the program makes the red ring come on, is not actually faulty. badass huh?

[Korbs21]

@TheTailor25

That's quality! lol xD

[wkdw1ll1ams]

@TheTailor25 no, the linux booter tells the smc to do that.

[Goomba753]

@TheTailor25 That's not a red ring...

[waseem64134]

I am curious if you can run ESX server on xbox

[harmeet731]

i didn't believe him he might kept CPU under his table

[screezable]

@harmeet731 noob. do you know google ? it works ;)

achja und Deutschland ftw

[ReCkLeSsErr0r]

@harmeet731 It is real, but the exploit is fixed

[oxjmanxo]

@ReCkLeSsErr0r

exploit was fixed but there are still ways around it, some more legal than others lol

[onekopaka]

@harmeet731 considering there are no PPC binaries for Ubuntu stuff, that's likely.

[smartarted]

@onekopaka: Ubuntu has builds for PPC, AMD64, and i386... N00b.

[zonemad96]

can you still do this if you updated your xbox?

[ReCkLeSsErr0r]

@zonemad96 No the exploit was fixed 3 years ago

[waddlerobloxxxx]

LOL@ RRoD

guess microsoft doesnt like linux

[Dorifto007]

have you tried any games on it?

[IMakeOrWatchVideos]

My pc and do that

[aibomart]

@IMakeOrWatchVideos But this is an Xbox that isn't supposed to "do that".

[IMakeOrWatchVideos]

@aibomart Xbox O really?

[Metalguitarist112]

Tye1218 your fucking retarted, to boot linux you need to put the disc in...go read kid.

[EMABrad]

Dude, you're red ringing. XD

[k0rfain]

That's pretty cool. What all can you do though? Could you browse the internet?

[Tye1218]

Nice flashed xbox HAHAHAHA he CLEARLY changed the disc to a burned disc.

[Faro0]

@Tye1218 That's what you have to do to utilize the exploit, retard.

[IGotHacks]

@Tye1218 how should he get the ubuntu into the box WITHOUT doing it FAGOTT?

[Tye1218]

@IGotHacks umad?

[IGotHacks]

@Tye1218 nope sry was my brother hes gay ;)

[rockoutdudepro]

Hey how do you do this?

[E45ADY]

on 1:30 i see RROD ??

[IllegalMavamaarten]

@E45ADY Nope, RROD = fully red.

[sithi96]

try windows :D

[Chipudnik]

very nice!

[irue12]

cheap but poweful server

[GangstaCrow7777]

using the jtag hack u can run linux losers

[lessonswithdrufus]

@GangstaCrow7777 this is three years ago you numpty

[GangstaCrow7777]

@lessonswithdrufus i know but people are making comments like AlecTeal and yes i is a numpty

[mynameisreggiexp]

@GangstaCrow7777 does the xbox 360 elite have the jtag thing??

[GangstaCrow7777]

@mynameisreggiexp if its not updated after summer of '09 then yes

[TheWindowsHack]

im annoyed. i have a xbox elite K: 8955.

anyway to downgrade the kernal so i can boot linux ?

[talkboxier]

it's impossible right now

you have blown the efuses and the update removed jtag support. sorry.

[AlecTeal]

DONT TRY,

the june (i think) 2009 update, involved purposly blowing a resistor which controlled the bios part of the bored, restricting its capacity to 256kb, and moved the bootsector, linux now cannot run on the 360, almost indefinatly, sorry.

[supern00b25]

@AlecTeal works just fine so YOU FAIL

[MoDzNG4MEP14YvIDz]

@AlecTeal

It was the fuse that blows and you spelled board incorrectly. You fail at commenting.

[AlecTeal]

@MoDzNG4MEP14YvIDz as a dislexic something happened a long time ago....

i was fucking a corpse when - it written form - i accidently pledged my soul to Santa - not Satan (As intended) Turns out Santa is quite nasty

God i hate being dislexic - but go ahead fuck up your xbox

[MoDzNG4MEP14YvIDz]

@AlecTeal

What?? I own 2 Xenons, 1 Falcon and 1 goldy Jasper 256mb Chipset. You go ahead and fuck up your Xbox n00b. You fail at modding kid and you think you know shit. It was the August 09 update that patched future Xbox's from being JTag'd. It's not the bios. It was the onboard nand flash that was destroyed. You fail kid sit down.

[AlecTeal]

@MoDzNG4MEP14YvIDz and i hope you try with whatever it is you just listed, 2 Xenons.... fuck sake you have no idea how to mesure computing power *roll*

but its now imposible to get linux onto an xbox 360 - £20 says so. thanks

[DrinkAndDrive]

@AlecTeal i have linux on my 360. you should investigae before betting.

[z411811]

@AlecTeal Wrong i have linux running on my xbox 360 right now

[SkullXII]

@AlecTeal Not to sound like an echo, but you CAN.

[l14m333]

@TheWindowsHack

no. not now, not for a long time.

keep an eye out around modding forums tho

[MoDzNG4MEP14YvIDz]

@TheWindowsHack

Not possible

[Turpat]

@TheWindowsHack

There is no possibility

[musacekic]

right at 1:00 u see 2 red lights but its still working wat the heck doe taht suposed to mean?

[animengamez]

2 red and one green is ok that means over heating but three rings is rrod

[c0rpse1]

its just something the os does.

[weenershnitzel336]

@musacekic the xbox thinks its having an error but its not

[Kemalist36]

nice man

[bur333]

@Kemalist36 What is nice? Video or the maker himself?

[simpsopedia]

can yo plug in than an Usb-keyboard and mouse? that woud be awsome! Nice what you done with your box!

[Caden8Macleod]

not sure about mouse but keyboard u always can

[jonathanb95]

Lol 2 red rings

[ujayet]

can you surf the internet on it?

[OminousGlow]

Oh man, looking forward to jtagging my 3rd 360 today. The other 2 have kernel 84xx sadly, so no go on those ones. Looking forward to using Ubuntu on a 360 :)

[depend6x]

has somebody a link were I can download a image to install ubunto?

[quantae06]

I could really use this now. My monitor is broken. I can't get on the internet at home, until I go out and buy another monitor. That may take a while since I'm spending money on a plane ticket soon.

[Thelockerzhelp]

can u go on xbox live

[darkksyde]

uhh why is the powerbutton red

[yetinoob]

Acts as a HDD activity light.

[darkksyde]

nice

[quantae06]

I just noticed that. What the hell red power button? Idk, about this now haha.

[coltontd]

ubunto automatically does that with the rings and theyre not red theyre orange

[relientk71297]

is this PPC architecture of Ubuntu? or is it i386?

[thymark]

Please answere us a.s.a.p really interest about this questions

[kodykap011]

i want this my xbox 360 is banned for 4 leeks

[thegtalover]

How do you know for how many time your Xbox 360 will be banned? Mine's banned as well and I ant to know when can I kick ass on GTA IV online again?

[Gamestar11]

You get banned for life.

[soulexchange9]

You will be banned for life for assuming he will be banned for life, and there is no way he can be banned, it is the Xbox360 it self that will be banned and there is an easy fix to get around that with a small eeprom flash putting the older version of the 360 dashboard on the Xbox360 and then updating back to the new dash.

[psp271seb3]

Oh, sorry, forgot something:

Could you please test OSX (86) on this modded 360 ? I mean it could run...

And what about windows xp / 7 ?

And as alucard2107 asked, could you plugin any hardware you like ? What about bluray-drive ?

What about using the Nintendo Wii Emulator dolphin on this 360 ? It should run very fast because of the cpu the 360 got, and, of course, it would pown nintendo even more ;)

Please, try some1 out and send me a PN with this!

[arranmc182]

@psp271seb3: OSx86 or windows 7 would never run on a 360 as its PPC based and not x86 based this version of ubuntu is made for PPC

[psp271seb3]

@arranmc182 Oh, very interesting! Didn't know that, sorry ;) My fault..

But you could personalize the PPC-based OSX Leopard for example, couldn't you ? That woud be impressive xD A beautiful OSX on a beauti 360.. =)

[arranmc182]

@psp271seb3: No the PPC that Mac OS worked on was a little different than whats in the PS3 or Xbox 360 unless some uber hacker could hack a patch then it will not work

[psp271seb3]

After booting ubuntu the 360 shows 2 red lights ?

What... ?

Wow, impressive. Would like to see this on my 360, too ^^

[LevitskiSRGE]

any driver problems? can you access the hardware or is it loaded just in between virtualisation way?

[kodykap011]

my xbox 360 is banned i can do this

[gabrielgoma]

using this and going to live makes you get banned? =p

[quantae06]

I'll just use this on my PC.

[alucard2107]

very cool! now since you have ubuntu on there, could you plug in a blu ray player nad have the xbox play blu ryas?

[moomee237]

Im just going to say something fuck the ps3 and fuck the xbox go for a god dam real machine, a computer

[CrossingDivides]

@moomee237- This is cool that u can run Ubuntu on the 360 but I'm pretty sure that most people don't buy it for that anyway, a computer is good for desktop stuff and FPS hardcore gamers who want to mod/patch games etc, but the 360/PS3 is aimed at gamers who want to relax on their couch/bed and easily play and socialize with friends etc.

[jamariorankos12]

do you need king kong if you have the disk

[jamariorankos12]

Can you tell me how to do this my friend would love this

[ThePureFlame]

Doesn't that mean you could probably download an emulator to run windows programs like wine, then download steam, project 64 and lot's of other things?!

[hellzone100]

yeh

[brendude95]

wow Linux on both PS3 and XBOX 360 now...woohoo...i can have it on both...but what emulators could i put on linux?

[Mrbadboy333]

You can't have it on both. This is an old dashboard that has been patched ages ago and the new slim PS3s are taking away the linux feature you can install

[brendude95]

kk i was only going to do it on my PS3 luckily

[brendude95]

Im not trying to rip at 360 here but woulnt this old type be expensive due to 95% of them going POP frin RROD

[CrossingDivides]

what ya mean? If ur talkin about the older models? The dashboard is the new NXE firmware on all 360's made after the update but if you get an older 360 off ebay that doesn't have the new dashboard yet I guess you could try it, but really, is it worth it?? lol

[brendude95]

Haha better not XD... i dont have a 360 atm...got a PS3 though (please dont egg me) but in the future when RROD is completely cured and i can pick up a second hand one cheap...(like PS2's) then i will prob get one...atm im skint and enjoying my PS3 though

[SuckXmyXchickeN]

I mean its cool and all, but I think I'll stick to having my computer being my computer and my xbox just being an xbox.

[MrSensai1]

lol u messed up on the username and or password i do that shit to NICE VIDEO

[LewieModz]

is this using a 360 as a computer?

[Kes19913]

yeah its running linux ubuntu

[MicroHelper]

Can it run the Desktop Effects?!?? It has to. It would be awesome!

[LessthanJake14]

Interesting thing to BitTorrent on, too.

[gta1221ps3]

ring of death 1:05

[melanrz1]

no,that mean off hardware from dashboard

[LessthanJake14]

Who the fuck cares? And no, that's not the ring of death...

[Kes19913]

not rrod

[ssjmysticgohan]

ubuntu on the ps3 boots about 10 to 15 seconds faster. funny since its meant to run linux and the xbox 360 isn't lol

[TheNameIsCharles]

PS3 has a 7 core CPU... But a shitty GPU...

[girlsdrinkfeck]

yeah but they arent FULL cores , to be specific the ps3's cell has 7 SPEs on 1 big core . it only has 1 PPE , xbox has 3 FULL cores running at individual speeds of 3ghz

[brendude95]

Its not a shitty GPU...people say its not as good but the clock speed of it is the highest of current consoles (excluding PC) and it seems to have acheived better graphics...im not fanboy but i think we all know that saying the PS3 has a shitty GPU when you compare games like gears of war 2 and killzone 2 side to side that it is obvious which one looks better...but hey who cares graphics doesnt make the game

[TheNameIsCharles]

clockspeed is not everything. infact it really isn't that substantial in comparison.The GPU of the PS3 is shared as in it uses part of CPU to function it uses alot of the stand alone RAM, which isn't great. The 360 on the other hand has an independant GPU where it doesnt rely on the CPU for function. It has shared RAM so when one chip is under heavier load the other can give it some ram. Oh and Im not a fanboy either I own both consoles. Like them both. But graphics wise the 360 is superior

[brendude95]

Yeah true..and yes you are not a fanboy..technology is so complicated everyone has different opinions...when i play halo3 it has great lighting but its when i play PS3 that i have games like MGS4 blow me away with the graphics...thats what i was just trying to say...and i never really knew that the PS3 relied on its CPU...thats pretty cool...the 360 does have the better and more simpler graphics card but its going to be one hell of a tough battle to see which one looks better on screen

[thrasha666]

hahaha yea right dude, yea the ps3 gpu has dedicated ram and the cell has dedicated ram but they can still share ram if absolutely needed, not to mention the fact that the rsx does not use part of the cell to function, i dont know where you pulled that shit from but regardless even if you were right, the 360 graphics is superior? really compare mgs4 or kz2 to queers of war dude, the ps3 is superior when the developer takes their time to code for it, get your facts straight kid

[TheNameIsCharles]

No, retard, they can't share RAM... It is physically impossible. Don't try and tell me I'm wrong, Ive worked for IBM for the past 7 years as a CPU wafer designer. KZ2 is a great game, I play it all the time, but it just isn't as fun as GOW2. I play both of them and I know alot of people that would agree. Oh and, RSX is a gimmick, IT DOESN'T DO ANYTHING. The 360 has superior graphics. The PS3 will end up having superior free-world game since they have 50GB discs. But not to worry.

[thrasha666]

idc who you worked for dude, sony themselves said that if the rsx needs a bit more ram it can send a request to the cell, if the cell accepts it takes the data and puts it in its own ram, then streams it to the rsx/rsx ram when needed, and how the fuck do you figure queers of war 2 is better then kz2 not on do the graphics suck, but its the same boring shit from the first queers, and how is it gimmick? whats your source, bill gates as hes fuckin you from behind?

[TheNameIsCharles]

FYI, I helped design the Core processor. What you are stating right now is EXACTLY what I'm saying. The RSX can use ram from the CPU, BUT NOT INDEPENDENTLY, it requires the CPU do half of its work. Which means it is a truly integrated chip, meaning it doesn't have its own resources built in. Oh and, for the record, Bill Gates designs software not hardware... Seriously, you think your a smart kid, but your really making yourself look stupid...

[thrasha666]

i know he does software but im making point since when someone hears microsoft they think bill gates, and you just made yourself look stupid by trying to prove me wrong, its CELL not Core

[TheNameIsCharles]

You ignorant bastard, Core, as in the Wafer that they make the die for the CELL processor. Man, learn some basic computer knowledge. And try using punctuation and proper grammar every once in a while

[thrasha666]

id rahter not since a im drunk as an irishman right now b its the internet, now anyway, i know basic computer knowldege asshole but stick to talking about the end product instead of the wafer, either that or dont respoind till im soberr enough to makes sense of shit

[DeadNetworks]

i designed the idea of god

yeah beat that you stupid kid

[TheNameIsCharles]

Oh, I forgot to ask. What line of work have you been in???? Hmmm? Best Buy perhaps?

[thrasha666]

yea when i was like 16, im working on my masters in computer programming

[TheNameIsCharles]

I hear ya there man. I got my masters in Hardware development and am thinking about getting it in programming. I support a fellow programmer

[thrasha666]

werent we just arguing? like..the last time i was drunk?

[TheNameIsCharles]

Yeah, but whats the point? We aren't gonna get anywhere. Really just a waste of time. No one needs to become mad over a damn video game console.

[thrasha666]

good point

[TheNameIsCharles]

Microsoft has a Blu-ray drive in the works for the 360 already, so the 360 will reign superior. But for me, it doesn't matter I have both. I love both consoles.

[thrasha666]

source? they said the same thing about putting hddvd internally, then they said that the blu ray add on would be out by the end of the year (the year that the format war ended) and that people could trade in their hddvd drive for 25% off the blu ray drive, so how in the hell is 360 superior? shitty graphics, lackluster games, and the only time it makes a couple sales is because it ripped something off from sony or nintendo. why pay another 200 for the drive on top of the 300 for the 360...

[CrossingDivides]

What, look whos talkin fanboi, the Wii was released and always had plans of motion sensing, The PS3 was finally released almost a year later with motion sensing newly announced, when it wasn't present at the showcase also missing the 2nd hdmi port etc. Who copied who? What's the 360 copied from Sony? I could say the same about PS1 copying Sega and Nintendo.. ? lackluster games? I have a PS3 but damn, I still find myself playing Halo 3 & now ODST more often, and XBL has all my friends in it.

[thrasha666]

wow way to resurrect a dead argument fagbag

[thrasha666]

when for 300 for the ps3 you get everything in one box

[KingOfSand100]

dude the 360 cant run ubuntu nearly as fast as the ps3
