When will V7 have native Linux GPU folding (not using wine)? you have discussed this as a future upgrade to FAH
When will be have BIGADV in win7 (64 bit)... so if we cater to do both GPU & cpu Bigadv with Ivy-e or SR-X system we can do so without the hassles of using Wine in linux

Re: V7 questions (development questions)
Regarding the Linux native GPU Client, all I can tell you that PG has been notified of it and it is on their to-do list. As usual, there aren't any ETAs and it will be announced once they decide it's ready to be released.
Bigadv may come back to Windows if and when a new FahCore for bigadv is developed (viewtopic.php?p=237206#p237206).

Re: V7 questions (development questions)
J. Coffland has said that V7 itself is ready. The trick is getting a FahCore (that V7 can use) that works in Linux. If you follow the blog posts and other developments, you'll see that there are a number of significant changes going on with the GPU code, mainly in OpenMM and OpenCL. Like PantherX said, it's known and on their to-do list, and it'll be released when they feel that it's ready, whenever that is.
F@h is now the top computing platform on the planet and nothing unites people like a dedicated fight against a common enemy. This virus affects all of us. Lets end it together.

Re: V7 questions (development questions)
For what it's worth my opinion/observations:
Giving out ETA's for development projects is self-defeating. It invariably takes more far time than estimated and the user-base tends to plan based on those ETA's resulting in unhappy users. The end result is that time-frames are never given out. Often the delays are caused by things beyond PG's control like drivers but priorities and resource limitations play a big part too.
So the best you'll get to questions like this are non-answers like what is being given here: "It is on their to do list" and "it'll be released when they feel it is ready" or "It is a high priority" and the ultimate non-answer of "soon" which seems to mean anywhere from tomorrow to never with a bias towards the later. So don't hold your breath. Don't make plans. just watch and wait and be happy when or if it happens.
