Linux Distribution Support for P.A. Semi
On the heels of Apple's acquisition of P.A. Semi, and the uncertain future for that company's PA6T Power Architecture processors, both Debian and MontaVista have announced support for those same processors. (OK, Debian didn't really announce it, but a closed bug report is about as good as it gets.) The Debian integration has been in the works since January this year; one can only speculate about for how long the MontaVista support has been negotiated.
