Linux CSC clients from DCypher.Net Posted Sunday, November 21 13:09 by armin
DCypher.Net announces the availability of Linux clients for their CS-Cipher cracking effort. These clients are for x86 Linux and MMX-capable CPUs only!
I told you about this a little while ago, DCypher leads the attempt to break the 56 bit CS-Cipher key.
The prize money from CS Group (the makers of CS Cipher) is 10,000 Euro (about $10,500) and will go to the lucky finder without deductions if he uses the DCypher client software.

Oh, and please report any bugs to me to avoid spamming Jon Taylors mailbox.
3dfx goes Open Source Posted Friday, November 19 3:47 by armin
3dfx released a Voodoo3 X Server with Mesa-based OpenGL API support. Installing it will disable Glide under Linux (!). Quake 3 is supposed to run and so are all OpenGL applications that you can compile from source. Unreal Tournament, Myth 2 and Quake 1/2 will not work with it.
You can download this driver package here.

The Linux client is not completed yet but expected by next weekend.
They also stress that the full prize money of 10,000 Euro ($10,500) will go to the lucky finder of the correct key without deductions, so you may wish to get in.
MESA 4 Savage4 Posted Thursday, November 11 4:06 by Helmut
Jon Taylor sent me word that there is a MESA GGI driver for the CL Savage4! It is in beta state and under NDA, so the sources wont be given free, but he told me to send my a binary version ASAP. It is quite torn up right now and just worx at 1024x768 with buggy texture mapping, he sais.
One thing is for sure: CL wont hold on that NDA since they stopped shipping S4 cards, so, the source might get open sooner than we think!
CSC for Linux Posted Wednesday, November 10 7:37 by armin
DCypher.Net, the distributed computing guys who are out first with a final client for the CS Cipher encryption challange by french CS Group are close to finishing their Linux version of the software as well.
I will keep you posted on the progress, meanwhile you can head over and grab a client for your Windows machines if you still run any.
Prize money is 10,000 Euros for the lucky code cracker, that makes for a nice multiprocessor Linux box ;)
