Linux GPU update

[Nathan_P]

Just found this thread over at FF, as some of you may have already seen PG are in the process of developing a new GPU core, core 17. One of the benefits is that it is supposed to run on linux and from the comments made by protoneer things look promising.

That's certainly pretty interesting, especially since most of my 2p or 4p boxes have at least a couple x16 pci-e slots....

I hope they're still going to create a Windows version of the same core.

Interesting and its about time.

Steam porting to Linux, Pande porting GPU to Linux... life is good.
