To install xPlusz you first need xtreme or equivalent like re-flash prom and kill_initrd.

jaron,
Make sure you're using the latest version of the setup script

Could be that linux is not recognizing your HD properly. After booting the CD, use the shift-PageUp and shift-PageDown to scroll up to see if there are messages that show that the hdb drive is...

When I've seen this problem it's been the s-video cable. Try reseating the cable.

S-video has 2 components, the chroma and the luminence. When just one of the two circuits is interrupted, you get...

Make sure this
/etc/rc.d/rc.remote-login &
is at the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.net

Try:
#0#10

Preceeding any of the display commands with #0 directs the output to the screen, otherwise the output goes to the /var/log/messages file. See the README file.

Try entering the following in the Call Waiting Prefix on the Phone Dialing Options menu:
#21,1

Don't know why you're having problems but it should work like this:
Enter command in call waiting prefix and press select. This should immediately take you back to the Phone Dialing Options screen...

xPlusz doesn't really support noscramble_mbm.o unless you installed the xupgrade.

But you should be able to get noscramble to work if you:
run #53,0 and then #54,1
That will get you the regular...

Enter:
echo $root
to find out.

#54 turns noscramble on and off immediately. #47 is the bootup option for noscramble.

If it's not comming on at bootup, take a look at /var/hack/xPlusz/xPlusz.log and look for errors. If...

The xtreme upgrade thread has some info about getting a static ip. I haven't done it so I can't help much.

#47,1 turn on noscramble every time the dtivo reboots.
#54,0 and #54,1 turns noscramble...

You need to gain file access on a DTiVo so any files you change will not be regressed. The most common method for doing this is to reflash the prom and clear the kernel initrd.

Here's the...

Go to the thread http://dealdatabase.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18394
and download the version you have and look at the readme.

The problem has just about gone away for me on all my dtivos. Don't think it's heat related since the room's ambient temp is higher now than in April. Unless it's the heat that makes it go away. ;)

If you already have v3.1.0 you can't use the upgrade. Start with a standard v2.5 or 2.5.2 image or start with v25xtreme.

If you have v2.5, xtremed or not, you can use the upgrade to go to v2.5.2...

It won't overwrite the file but it will be left behind on the old root partition. Then you can just copy it from the old partition to the new. Someone posted exactly how to do this so do a search. Or...

What browser are you using? I tried download with mozilla and got similar errors, but with IE is seems to download correctly.

Also tried it with Netscape 4.79 and it downloads ok.

Apparently there's a bug in the tar program that's on that CD distro. I had to code a work-around to setup. So give this version of setup a try and let me know so I can post the fix in the xPlusz...

For some reason it looks like the files aren't being extracted or copied to the /hack/bin/xPlusz directory.

What linux are you booting in the PC?

Try running the setup command with the verbose...

You could use a computer case fan available at radio shack and all over the internet, for example here

It would help if you posted all of the messages you see after you enter the setup command.

And if you would do a ls on the /hack/bin/xPlusz directory.

You would need to modify /hack/bin/xPlusz/xPlusz.tcl. Or you could run elseed separate from xPlusz as explained in the elseed readme.

Don't connect a phone line or a turbonet. Hope that no upgrades are sent via the satellite (they haven't done this yet). Without making successful periodic calls to the tivo service you might lose...
