Main difference I can see is YDL CUDA 6.3 has CUDA 3.2 whereas I<br>

I believe this is mainly a CentOS 5.x based distro, but not having<br>

I guess the main advantage this would have over a stock current debian<br>
is that it appears to have been optimised for nvidia hardware but it<br>
uses such an old kernel that one may have trouble with newer machines<br>
like mine.<br>
<br>
BTW, CUDA is actually up to 4.0 at the moment, so they&#39;re behind on<br>
this at the moment too.<br>
<br>
Brings up the initial question: Who at the moment is using this distro?<br>
