GeeXboX (23-06-2008) (Wii Application)

GeeXboX is a crude prototype of GeeXboX port for Wii. It is based on GC-Linux team’s Wii-Linux-PoC-0.4 and a recent devel version of GeeXboX.

GeeXboX is a free embedded Linux distribution which aims at turning your computer into a so called HTPC (Home Theater PC) or Media Center.

Most functions of WII, including bluetooth/wiimote, DVD, wireless, LAN etc., are not supported by this version, due to limitations of the linux kernel. There are terrible bugs too, which you won’t be able to miss. So please regard this rather as a demo. But expect huge improvements in next release, when GC-Linux team’s latest Linux port becomes available.
