There are many reasons for this: 1) It has been tested and proven that the Linux seti binary actually runs faster than the FreeBSD binary, EVEN if you run the Linux binary from within FreeBSD. If you don't believe me, try it for yourself. 2) Newer versions of the Linux client come out faster. The current version of astro/setiathome is marked FORBIDDEN because there is a security issue and the FreeBSD native binary hasn't been released yet. The updated Linux version has been out since day one. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: No fix yet, shall I make an astro/linux-setiathome port ? >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
