The video drivers in the xbox linux support the Xcalibur chip found in 1.6 
xboxes *to a point*.  What exactly do you see on screen, that has led you to 
conclude that it is not supported?

If you see a picture, but it's too big for the screen, then sorry, that's the 
state of the art in our support right now. If you see a completely scrambled 
picture, then that distro is lagging in terms of support, and should update 
its' kernel patch from our cvs.

Cromwell 2.40 again has the current latest xcalibur video support (with the 
same picture-too-big-for-screen thing going on).
