    There could of been a couple places to post this but whatever. I went with the Linux forum.

    I was thinking about getting an HD-DVD Xbox 360 add-on to hook up to my computer and use as a drive. Now i know there are drivers for XP so that it recognizes it as an HD-DVD drive. I was wondering if there are any drivers for linux. Running Ubuntu Feisty BTW.
