your telling me!
i am on a ppc too, and it is VERY annoying not to have some of the closed 
source linux tools here.  I know from experiance with Loki that most PPC 
linux games are a rebuild with minor patching for missing OpenGL libs...

There is no good reason why a intel based application could not be rebuilt on 
a PPC but companies just dont seem to want to.  Even  Java in its mission to 
be cross platform has problems...  

Oh well
