I don't know if anybody is still reading the forum, but I saw this and couldn't resist.
I think everyone has heard of the "Predator" drones the government sends out; I thought they were only used as weapons. Apparently they actually collect a *ton* of data and the government is looking how to process all of it!

I haven't finished this article yet, but with the pending dominance of OpenCL and the unknown future of which GPGPU dev environment will become a defacto standard; This GT paper from May is attempting to quantify the comparison metrics among the players. The paper does analysis on all of the SDK examples to start with, and they have built a simulation framework for PTX, not sure yet if how this ties into the emulation mode? Anyway still more to read for me...but here is the link

I installed this in my user directory (and its dependencies). If anyone needs the OpenGL or PIL (Python Imaging Library) modules, you should be able to do:
PYTHONPATH=/home/nward/lib/python2.4/site-packages:/home/nward/liib64/python2.4/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH python <py source file> |

They are adding cores and dropping clock speed. As well as using E-DRAM. |

For anybody using linux, recordMyDesktop is pretty solid. Combine that with WinFF to the conversion to your choice. You will need to have the non-free codecs installed for WinFF to make this work.
Ubuntu provides the most of this in the package manager, you just need to add the medibuntu for the non-free stuff. Here is a blog how-to http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/05/22/easily-convert-videos-with-winff-and-ffmpeg/ |
