Title: Any new 2.4V for linux?
Post by: sunu on 02 Sep 2007, 03:10:37 pm: Thank you very much, all of the team, for your continued efforts! :)

As I'm more interested in the linux versions, especially 64bit, are we going to see new versions for linux also?

Moreover is there going to be a Core 2 optimized version as there was for 2.2?

Yes. There will be new releases for linux too. Unfortunately i didn't have the time to start with them.

For Linux, probably but i can't promise anything. The latest Linux tests have shown no difference between a SSE3 and SSSE3 build. IOW no speed gain at all.

Take your time with the linux soup. We want it well cooked and tasty. ;)

In addition to that i'm planing a GFX release for linux too.
Besides that there will be no more difference between Kernel versions like in previous relases (32 bit).

Good news keep on coming!!!

There's no 2.4V for linux atm. So there's no glitch at all.
However, the optimizations you'll see in the S@H stock application for both linux and windows are ALL based on 2.2B source code( wich is, again based on a very old 5.15 stock s@h app.)

For later relased 2.4V linux apps there will posibbly be the same version thag on the executables ... 5.15... So all in all no need to worry about that at all.

Post by: Raistmer on 03 Sep 2007, 04:31:37 pm: ah, 2.4_Linux64_kernel_2.6_generic_SSE2.tar.bz2, not 2.4V .. my mistake, sorry ::)
BTW, is this version faster than latest stock one?

Let's see, main group of developers took some code optimizations from this site and put them into the new version of seti application code... and called it 5.21. Then, they fixed some bugs and called it 5.28. But you've been running the optimized code (even more optimized due to a specialized compiler) all along.
