Rockbox Utility on Linux

AlexP:
Correct, as it isn't built for PPC.  You need to build it.  We can't provide binaries for every minority architecture.

Well, the wiki page explicitly states "x86" for the Linux binaries. I wouldn't expect an x86 binary to run on PPC ... Is this unclear? If yes, how can we make it clearer?

As said before I expect it to "just work" on PPC -- but for it to "just work" you need a binary, and we don't provide any. In other words: "just work" means "it works without modifications to the source code when building it."

LeoTheLion89:
well mac osx version is compiled for PPC Linux and Mac are both UNIX couldnt the Mac OS X ppc code just be "added" to the Linux code?

torne:
Linux and OSX are not the same thing.

The *code* should already work perfectly fine on PPC Linux systems; you just need to download the code yourself and compile it.

LeoTheLion89:
im not a programmer i dunno how to compile
