load up a terminal (xterm or similar) and type

Code: Select all

su -
(password should be xbox unless you've changed it)
xbvset
then choose your video mode and resolution when you get to choosing HOC and VOC you will have to guess, lower numbers give less black border, too low and the image will be off the edge of the screen. HOC is for the borders at the side, VOC is for the borders top and bottom.
If you keep an open mind, will your brain fall out?
