MediaCentre on Linux?

[xwafiqx]

Are there any Emulators or equivalent 'media centre' type applications I could use on Linux that would enable me to connect to my Xbox? Or/and just turn my PC into a standard media PC with Linux?
I do not have Linux and haven't tried it yet but am interested in it but still weighing the pros and cons.

I'm building a server around it now.
Just install one of the sharing apps that connect to the xBox (uShare is one iirc, still busy on other stuff so havent got that far yet).

Best media center!

I concur XBMC is fantastic, however you need a fairly decent PC to run it, otherwise it can lag something terrible.
