I'm finally getting use out of the Debian OS that came with my SmartXX chip. I've had it installed for almost 2 years in which time it's seen very little use. I was setting up my other computers for folding yesterday when I noticed they had a Linux version. It made me wonder if I could make use of the XBOX for folding. After all it is 733Mhz of pure Mobile Celeron power!

1) Download the executable within Linux:

Direct link to Linux F@H executable

2) Change the permission to allow the program to run as an executable

3) Launch it from Terminal using the following command:

./FAH502-Linux.exe -config

4) Adjust the settings (add my name, team, etc.)

That's it!

Well the install was a little tricky but that was mostly due to using a controller and the virtual keyboard to do the typing but here it is running FAH502-Linux.exe:

and the box it's on:
