XBMC Media Center: Linux port project
,----[ Quote ]
| Currently, a few developers on Team-XBMC have begun the porting of XBMC to
| Linux (and OpenGL using the SDL toolkit). The goal is for this to become a
| full port of XBMC with all the features and functions that are available on
| the Xbox version of XBMC (with the exception of Xbox exclusive functionality
| as Trainers, launching Xbox Games, and such).

Joost on Linux: it's difficult, but possible
,----[ Quote ]
| Although the methods that people are using right now to get Joost
| working on Linux are very hackish, one should keep in mind that the
| Joost developers plan to officially release and support a native
| Linux build at some point in the future. Until then, Linux
| enthusiasts will likely continue working to simplify and document
| the process of getting the Windows version of Joost to run in Wine.

| The wait is over, Linux users out there. We just released the first
| Zattoo client for the operating system of your choice (and that of
| Michael Dell). The main supported distro is Ubuntu 6.10, but the
| package can also be made to work with Fedora Core 6 and OpenSuse
| 10.2 with a little extra effort.
