GeeXboX LiveUSB HTPC Linux distro hits v2.0, adds ARM support for multi-core video decoding

Last time we heard about GeeXboX, Palm was ushering out its first webOS phone, Google was putting the conventional navigation model within the grave and unlimited Skype calling over LTE was but a figment of our imagination — two years later, and the aforesaid distro is finally reaching version two dot oh. Like version 1.2.2 , the HTPC-centric Linux distribution allows users to decode media on dual- and quad-core systems, with added support for devices running ARM SoCs (just like the TI OMAP4 Pandaboard and Tegra 2).
