OpenELEC 1.0 Released
OpenELEC is an embedded Linux distribution that aims to allow people to use their Home Theatre PC (HTPC) in the same manner as any other device attached to your TV - like a DVD player or Sky box. Turn on your box, and OpenELEC is ready and waiting in less than 10 seconds - as fast as some DVD players. A simple remote control is all you will need. On top of that, one need not worry about updating OpenELEC, as the software will self-update automatically when connected to the Internet and an update is available. Installing OpenELEC takes less than 5 minutes and requires zero Linux experience. After that, one need merely add one's media files and preferred addons, and OpenELEC will 'just work.'"

There are packages for Debian systems created by Christian Marillat (see http://www.debian-multimedia.org/dists/unstable/main/bina...).
At least the ones for PowerPC (an "odd-ball" arch) seem to work on my iBook G4 (well, to the extent that the radeon driver lets it, anyway---even mplayer is causing it to crash).
I would point it to the bug in kernel.org's bugzilla, but it seems that it was not yet restored.
Regards.
