i don't know if free60 is still in active developement, because their wiki is bein hammered all the time.
what are you talking about ? about 2 months ago we installed a captcha.. and we (someone else and I) spend a good part of a day converting all the spam back to the original info...
If anyone is wondering... Your able to install linux on a usb harddrive with this kernel, usb is waay more stable... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Nice, but still, is sound and 3d video working? That would be so awesome if yes, it would make me consider buying an Infectus to downgrade my Xbox 360!

As for 3d it would require someone to write api's for dri/glx/compositing which would take up LOTS of time.
But since there is allready a very lowlevel 3d gpu library, it should be possible.
When there is an easier hack/exploit and more people will start using free60 then I'm sure it will happen.

Sorry, my mistake.
It's good to know that Free60 wiki is working again!

I sincerely doubt that the Xbox 360 uses a POWERPC architecture.
