Linux on a Wii

I had the game Twilight Princess borrowed by a friend. For those who don't know, using this game you can run homebrew software on the Wii without the need of a modchip.

The gc-linux project (originally porting linux to the gamecube) has a simple Linux image available.
A warning: Nintendo released a new firmware that stops this method to work, so if you wanna have fun, don't update your Wii. And the obvious warning: Everything you do is at your own risk.
Update: Seems the Firmware update is no longer a problem.

0.01 % of Xorg
Phoronix has just published an article about the development of xorg and they have a statistics of contributors from Distributions.
I'm listed there on the Gentoo part with 0.01 % contributions to Xorg. Yay!

OpenStreetMap on RTL

They made some recordings in Bad Cannstatt and in a forest near Murrhardt. It will probably come in the »Nachtjournal«, we don't know a date yet. Hopefully the recording will be available online as well.
Update: You can now download Nachtjournal from 3th July.
