Misc news

If you check the overlaytimeline you could see some minor updates (new libspe1 and ps3pf_utils tentative ebuild)

I hadn’t written much lately but quite a lot is happening on #gentoo-ppc64 thanks to quite a lot of ps3 owners willing to help testing and to ranger and JoseJX that are preparing something interesting (I won’t tell what since we are working on that right now and probably I’ll leave Brent the pleasure to be the first writing about it once it’s ready^^).

I’m still following what’s happening in the toolchain and kernel sides and looks like all the pieces are coming together nicely.

I guess that’s all.

PS: I read on a certain site complaints about having some patches to support ps3 merged in the .20 kernel and other complaints about not having access to certain features like the gfx right now.

Well, considering how the other PowerPC consoles aren’t supported at all and how hard the Sony+IBM people are working, I’d suggest you to quit complaining and be a bit more supportive… Maybe IF the experiment goes well IBM or Sony or Toshiba could come up with more Cell based hardware for the workstation/desktop market…
