News from the GCLinux Site (http://www.gc-linux.org/wiki/Main_Page)


We have added support for the powerpc arch branch in our Linux kernel patches, in addition to the ppc branch. The latter will be removed soon from the Linux kernel, so this was a move for the future. The changes are available through the cvs service (http://gc-linux.cvs.sourceforge.net/gc-linux/linux). If you want to quick-test them on a Nintendo Wii, we have released version 0.2 of the wii-linux Proof of Concept (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gc-linux/wii-linux-PoC-0.2.tar.gz). This time classic pads and audio are enabled and you can use up to 52MB of MEM2 as a block device. On the EXI front, support for SD cards with blocks greater than 512 bytes has been fixed and it seems that the Nintendo Wii doesn't suffer from the EXI leaking read bug^H^H^Hfeature... Who wanted SD card EXI DMA reads? :)
