DS Linux?

[LWA]

Hey all,
I was just wondered whether anyone on Hexus is running the DS version of Linux? I have just got my new DS Lite and after reading the Wiki I am tempted to give it a go.

If someone could post their experiences and the software/hardware used it would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Leon

P.S I have put this in the Game forum as it is to do with a game console, if mods want to move, feel free.

If they can get over the 4mb RAM limit and enable graphics processing, then it will be a lot better - otherwise, it's a nice idea, but very limited.

Ah I was not aware of this problem, but I suppose that's the reason I started the thread.

The idea of having Linux on the DS sounds great, being able to use irc, play mp3s etc etc would be superb!

Perhaps I will wait a while until they have everything working

There is a memory extension being worked on:

That link is for this thread?

not much of a memory extension then.. more of an infinite loop

I don't understand what this obsession is, to run Linux on anything with an electrical current passing through it.

Muhaha, you fell for my.. erm.. trick. Yes, that's it.

And you took the piss out of me for installing CYGWIN?

Haha, DS Linux looks really primitive

Where can you buy flash carts anyway? I've only ever seen them in american online shops which don't ship here
