Ten months after releasing its sixth version of Yellow Dog Linux (abbreviated as YDL), Fixstars has released the new, 6.1 edition. This is also the first version released after the company was acquired by Terra Soft. For those who are unfamiliar with YDL, it is a Linux distribution programmed for Sony Playstation 3, PowerStation and Apple G4 and G5. Yellow Dog Linux is based on CentOS, a cousin of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Owen Stampflee, the Director of Engineering in TeraSoft states that this is one of the biggest updates in YDL, and that they have looked over every segment of users. For regular users the update mainly contains software and application updates, like Firefox and OpenOffice. Although, OpenOffice is still not updated on its last version, it should be available soon. Nevertheless, v6.1 has a significant update introducing the ps3vram, a solution that uses the fast GDDR as a SWAP or like temporary file storage.
