Hi all,

I just got my new Bubba2 and so far I like it. Since I'm new to most of this I bumped in to some questions. But this one I don't seem to find any answer to.
Is there a way to stream or any other way get hold of my stuff on Bubba through my Xbox 360, mostly movies? And how do I do it?


My setup:
ADSL modem--->Netlink Router -->bubba

So far I've forwarded necssary ports suggested in the manual and I sucsessfully reach Bubba locally, through ftp and http(apart from easyfind).
Any ideas?

thanks
/Mathew

well, I've got this far!!

What I've read this nifty media server should work(GeeXboX):
http://ushare.geexbox.org/

So I downloaded some .tar stuff(ushare-1.1a.tar)

...and I'm supposed to somehow install it with this(PuTTY):
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgta ... nload.html

Does it need to bee in a specific folder on Bubba to begin with?
Anybody dare to help

Hi Matthew.

This might help: http://wesleybailey.com/articles/xbox-360-htpc-linux

You'll need to use Putty to log in to your Bubba server, then try following those instructions to get it installed.

I might give this a go myself if I get some time over the next few days.

Good luck.

Dan.

Thanks Dan, much appreciated!

I tried it out and sorry to say this is only part of the solution, but it helps on the way.

I found out that "sudo" command don't work and the link he suggest, http://www.geexbox.org/debian/ ,is broken.
So I checked geexbox.org and find all this downlodables. As I understand the full download is an all new OS of some sort that I dont want. But I found this huge list of packages http://www.geexbox.org/en/packages.html ...so I guess I want one of those.

Well... I'm starting to figure out how all this works. With a little help of this:

...and a litte help of that:

To get a visual of the files I log in to mediatomb filstructure. So what's missing is the right install and use the tutorial to config it. I'll continue my research and see what I get...but it's all fuzzy!

I got no further success with this! I got stuck with installing it. If someone else manage to get this working I'd be happy to know if it works...

cheers
