Ubuntu on PS3 *CALLING ALL PS3 OWNERS*

Might want to ask Vijay about this, afaik the PS3 folding client and core, hasn't been released yet.

Adak
 
The linux F@H client is X86(-64) only as of now. The Cell is based off a PPC architecture and runs PPC linux versions. There will be a PS3 folding client, and it will probably utilize the Cell's power better than a Linux PPC client would.
 
LG Plasma TV's also use PPC CPU's, and we have one model in our store right now that has a 160 GB HDD for the built in DVR. Now if only I could find a way to borg a plasma TV............
 
I don't see what's bad about not being able to do this. It's not like the PS3 isn't getting its own client soon anyways; which will no doubt be specifically tailor made for its architecture.
