Portal:PowerPC/Intro

openSUSE for POWER^tm is back! Thanks for OBS and KVM on POWER we are able to do a public builds. That means, you can, without any access to the PowerPC hardware, build your application for ppc64 or ppc64le architectures.

Feel free to join theopenSUSE Factory mailing list as well as the #openSUSE-factory IRC channel for questions or help. (the old opensuse-ppc list and channel are not used anymore). We are also actively looking for people to test our builds. If you have an PowerPC machine and you're encounter some bugs and are willing to spend some time to get it working with openSUSE, please contact us on the mailing list.

There is also always room for improvement on the package building side of things. You can check out Factory build failures for ppc64 and ppc64le.

Thanks and here's to getting our Geeko some Power.
