usb tether for linux (xbox)
 
I know that the internet can be shared via windows but is there a way to tether the 6800 to linux, specifically gentoox for xbox.

Try using WMWIFIROUTER.. It will let you use your phone as an ad-havoc wireless access point.. I don't know what gentbox is, but if it is a way to run linux on your XBOX, then you might be SOL, unless you have an external wireless adapter.. Which would be hell to get working..

He means he is running Linux on his Xbox and wants to use his Mogul as a modem. Not sure how you would go about doing that on an Xbox since it doesn't have wireless and I don't know if there is currently a driver for Linux to recognize the Mogul as a modem when hooked up via USB. You may be able to do it by running WMWiFi and then connecting to the created access point with a Windows machine that has wireless. Then you could use that machine as a gateway to share out the connection but man...sounds like a super beeotch to set up. Just plug in an ethernet cable to the Xbox ;)

mobile stream USB Modem can be used to connect to linux. It is a program that runs on the Mogul. Just download and follow the instructions.

thanks for all the replies. i'm going to try mobile stream usb modem tonight when I get back. i'm on the road right now and i'm using my xbox as my portable computer so I don't have a laptop. it'll be nice to be able to access myspace and youtube from a full screen. i've been doing everything from my mogul but it takes longer and doesn't have cd and all that stuff. Well, you get the point :)
